Does anyone else think it’s a bit silly that 250 years from now, Mankind will develop genetically altered super soldiers who’s, when armed with the standard issue Assault Rifle, only course of action in combat is to run at his opponent, shooting his entire clip at him and finally, only killing him by hitting him over the head with the butt of this assault rifle.
For heaven’s sakes, In Halo 4 can we please get a respectable assault rifle? I think they should make the reticule a bit smaller and make it a bit more accurate and potent. Im thinkin kind of like the ACR from MW2. Something that mechanically functioned like that gun, combined with the overshield/health dynamic of Halo, would be a really fun way to play. Then, it may not be that everyone who spawns in with an AR is looking to get rid of it as fast as they can.

i could see a gun like this working for halo, but dont replace the AR with it.
IMO the AR should be niched at close range to beat the utility-main-primary-weapon-spawn (so pistol in ce, BR in halos 2 and 3, and DMR in reach). the AR should beat the utility weapon with 90% accuracy, but no less, or the utility weapon will win.
i think an ACR-type utility weapon would be cool, provided its only on par with the main utility weapon if you retain 100% accuracy, otherwise it will lose in a 1v1 battle. the last thing i want is halo to turn into spray and pray with the new ACR since its so good and reliable.
i definitely agree with you tho. the AR in reach is terrible. post patch it might be a bit better at close range if you can get a melee in also (i havent tested this, so the new DMR / pistol / NR might very well be strictly better in close combat too XD)
Amen brother, i hope they do somthing to fix the AR. Like you said it isn’t that useful…at all. But if anything shoud replace it id like it to be a weapon i learned about called a heavy rifle. somthing that draws a fine line between the assult rifle and lmg. sorta like this gun (except full auto).

I am a spartan. I want human weapons. Also, NR is never a default gun (exept PRO). Im talking about a good AR that is fun to use and deadly at it’s appropriate range. Im tired of having to unload an entire clip into some dude and then hit him over the head with my gun. Thats NOT combat evolved. I could kill a guy the same using a board with a nail in it.
