FIRST OFF: I want these to return, graphical updated models, but can have the CLASSIC Sounds, maybe touched up a little.
Cause when they added the CE magnum to Halo 5, it sounded off… auto was dated, but tbh, Id rather have that than NOTHING form my list added
MEANING: I’d rather have the guns brought back with new visuals, and have the old, out of place sfx than not have them.
Be sure to share your weapon wants, thoughts, and all that. 1 thing is for sure, I hope their new Rocket launcher from Halo 5 never comes back, it is 2560 in Infinite, not 2014 CoD modern warfare. Yea.
UNSC Weapons (ones I assume might not be in, but should) NOT IN SPECIFIC ORDER OF FAVORITE TO LEAST FAVORITE, Just in Order of Remembering.
- CE’s Magnum or Reach’s Magnum (preferably Reach)
- Automag & Halo 5’s Standard base magnum (or the tactical gunfighter one… that one was cool)
- Halo 3 or Halo 4’s AR, not Halo 5’s cause Halo Infinite’s looks like Halo Reach, and has the stats of Halo 5, so… yea
I would not mind Reach’s AR coming back too… but yea. That classic Design AR would be nice to have as an option too. - SMG (Halo 3) and SMG (halo 5) the base models, both designs are so good, Halo 5’s is like a P90, and the Halo 3 version is fun to use (Halo 2 anniv is nice looking too)
- THE SAW - because we need it, and it is fun af to use (though I assume this will be in the game)
- Halo reach’s SRS, the sniper with the cool scope, the best feeling and good power. (I did not like Halo 4 or 5’s sniper)
- Halo 3 and/or halo 4/5’s Battle Rifle, Idk I prefer the design over the Halo 2 design they chose (unpopular opinion I assume) but I like the longer barrel of Halo 3’s, and the interesting take from Halo 4/5
- SSMG from Halo 3 ODST, it has good spread, longer range, and is one of my favorite automatic weapons in Halo
- Shotguns from Halo 2 AND Halo 3. I am not saying the current shotgun is BAD… BUT, this is what they SHOULD do with the shotguns:
Halo 2’s could be a pump action (like normal) and cycle slower but have the ammo capacity. Halo 3’s could be semi-auto, like a Spas12, have slightly less power and ammo than the later (should be 8 not 6 rounds) but fire faster. Also Halo 2;s should have more range. the new Infinite shotgun design should be full auto, have not very good range, a faster fire rate than the semi-auto, and with the drum mag, could act more like a sweeper shotgun, to bring variety to shotgun play.
*****Those are the UNSC weapons Id like to see return, they could look different and act different then the other guns, and if they add multiples of the same weapon, like Halo 3’s SMG and Halo 5’s SMG (base model) they could preform differently, power, range and accuracy wise. and not just be visual. But tbh, visual is fine with me.
Covenant/General Alien Weapons AGAIN not in Specific Order, just Order Remembered.
- Carbine, the carbine was awesome in Halo 2, Halo 3 and halo 4.
- OG Plasma Rifle AND Brute Plasma Rifle
- Classic Beam Rifle, I hated the chunky one from Halo 4/5 (Halo 2 and Halo 3’s Beam Rifle are best)
- Brute Shot - because the Thug Muffin Launcher is EPIC.
- Spiker and Mauler, I mean the brutes are back, bring back brute guns, the Mauler was fun to use, and the Spiker is Classic.
- Plasma Repeater and Needler Rifle - Idk why they never came back, I loved both of these.
Those are a few Alien weapons that should come back
Anyway, aside from guns, we can all say there is plenty that should be in Halo Infinite, but this post is about guns/weapons.
A friend of mine mentioned a Double Barrel Shotgun, but idk, that is more of a DOOM Trope than Halo, so idk about that. (I am not opposed to it).
Saw a post about Human Swords, no thanks, the Shotgun is already the human counter to the energy sword.
and any person who knows the lore, know the Energy Sword is mainly for Ceremonial Purposes and Officers (Elites), so yea.
I am also taking a stance on Assuming the Energy Sword, Gravity Hammer and most basic weapons will be there.
like the needler (which I saw in the game), Plasma Pistol, which hopefully looks more like Reach’s than Halo 5’s (Halo 5’s was UGLY).
I want to assume something like the storm rifle will come back too (which I am fine with, but I prefer the Plasma Repeater).
But yea, those are many weapons Id like to see in halo infinite. AND NOT JUST IN THE PvP/FORGE like added weapons tend to have been in Halo MCC and Halo 5.
Make them for Campaign (somehow) and make them for whatever else PvE modes appear.
