In Halo Infinite, I hope this same fuel rod weapon that appears in Halo 2, 3, 4, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach returns in Halo Infinite because I really enjoy using that weapon and in Halo Infinite, the normal maximum ammo should be restored to 25 rounds.
I mean fuel rods are classic so they’ll be included in some form, weather or not they’re tweaked a bit will be interesting to see. So long its balanced is all that I ask
Personally, I would love it if the Fuel Rod Gun were to use its classic design from Halo CE. There is nothing wrong with the current yellow ‘banana slug’ but I like the purple coloured original more. I also think CE’s version is much more fun to use!

I’m pretty sure it’s going to be the Type-33 Fuel Rod Gun (the one I mentioned above) that would return since that’s an awesome looking fuel rod gun.
I would certainly hope the Fuel Rod Gun makes a return. The gun is awesome.
i hope they up the damage a little bit, the halo 5 one was a little underpowered imo
So anyways, the Fuel Rod Gun will sure need to return in Halo Infinite as I’d like to use it again in that game.
Can we settle this once and for all.
Its called Fuel rod cannon.
Just listen to the announcement when its about to spawn in Arena.
Check your Service record -> Weapons and vehicles -> Scroll down to Power Weapons -> BAM! Fuel rod cannon!
Conflicting information: Halo 2 manual calls it Fuel Rod gun and so does the Halo Reach manual. Is it a PAL vs NTSC localization thing?

Ya same here. CE had the most interesting design in my opinion.
I hope they return it, and I hope they extend it’s “disarmed” range a bit so it can be used to shoot around corners more reliably from a distance. It was my favorite part of the gun, slamming it into a wall or floor to nail someone around a corner (and it gives it a niche besides ‘rapid fire rocket launcher’)

I believe Halo 5 is the only game to call the weapon a fuel rod cannon. Halo CE-4 call it a fuel rod gun, with fuel rod cannons in those games being the stationary turrets that fire the same projectile.

CE design with the exposed glowing rods was the best by far
If it does return I hope it functions more like its Halo 2/3 or even CE counterparts with lower damage. Each round being a one hit kill with such giant hitboxes makes it into a spam cannon. Introducing area denial functions like Pool of Radiance and/or give it the ability to lock onto to air vehicles(let the rocket launcher just be dumb fire) in order to give it some extra utility.
I wouldn’t mind if it returned.
Has there been any news on this? I’ll be gutted if it doesn’t return (preferably in the halo 1 style but I’ll take anything)
