Evolution of Assault Rifle from Halo CE to Halo 5

Video Link: The EVOLUTION of the Halo ASSAULT RIFLE - Halo: Combat Evolved to Halo 5: Guardians - YouTube

This is the first video in my new planned “Evolution of…” series of videos relating to the weapons in the Halo franchise. There are a lot of weapons to choose from, but I decided to start it off with the most iconic weapon of them all, the Assault Rifle.Beginning from Halo Combat Evolved (2001) all the way to the current Halo 5: Guardians (2015), there have been many weapons that have come and gone, and many of them have gone through some drastic transformations.

Which Assault Rifle is your favorite? Is it the classic Halo Combat Evolved Assault Rifle, or the newest smart-link enabled Halo 5 Assault Rifle? Which weapon would you like to see next?

Thank you for that! I wasn’t able to make it a link for whatever reason!

Cool video I’ll enjoy seeing more of these later on. Nice job.

Looks awesome. Can’t wait to see more of these in the future.

Thank you for taking time out of your Christmas Eve to check it out! I haven’t checked it on YouTube, but I would appreciate if you left a comment on there as well (sorry if you already did) because as small as it seems, it really helps the channel and which in turn will effect the quality of content that I upload. If you can’t think of anything to comment on it, let me know which weapon you would like to see next on the series. Again, thank you so much, and if you celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a good one!

You need to reach the forum rank of “Marine” (100 posts) to be able to post links.

On another note, could you please do a video on the evolution of the pistol?

If only they had transferred over the forum posts of Bungie.Net! I’ll get there eventually. I barely started using the Halo Waypoint forums. But now that Halo is back, I love the response and feedback from the community again!

Here’s what I think the AR from the Halo series

  • CE: 60 rounds, good overall damage with 60 rounds in the magazine, pretty good. - Halo 2: Disappeared off the face of the Earth due to Bungie’s new introduction to the Duel-Wield system. - Halo 3: Not the best AR variant, but could have been better IMO, but if you use short controlled bursts it was a good weapon. - Halo Reach: What the hell happened to this awesome gun?! - Halo 4: Awwww yeah, now THIS is the AR I’m talking about. - Halo 5: Halo 4 step-up with 4 extra rounds in the magazine AND variants for Warzone game-types…now that’s what I like to see. - Halo 6: ???Overall I like the Assault Rifle, it can be a nightmare and a half if your good with it.

Awesome breakdown! I want to make a series of this as well, ranking them from best to worst. Thanks for commenting on the forum post, and if you haven’t already, I would appreciate a comment on the YouTube video as well. Happy Holidays!

I checked out the vid, good breakdown of it on your end also; Happy Holidays to you too fellow Spartan.

I liked having 60 rounds. It was just a fun bullet hose weapon in CE, and enjoyable to burstfire.

nice
