So obviously we are expecting new weapons and vehicles in Halo 4 but if the covenant are not present in Halo 4 should that mean that 343 doesnt put their weapons and vehicles in matchmaking. That would be a huge loss if there wasnt plasma grenades, gravity hammer, ghosts, banshees etc. I mean even if they did add a ton of new weapons and vehicles from which the enemies use it just wouldnt be Halo without the covy. Even single player would take some getting use to not fighting them.
On a side note do you think they should have the flame and spike grenade, bruteshot, mauler, and chopper i really liked the brute stuff and missed it in Halo Reach.

I want the Beam Rifle back, the focus rifle is good but it was not even close to the same level as the UNSC sniper rifle.
I just hope the Covenant and all their weaponary return. Or at least the Elites in the middle in their war with the Brutes…
if the covenant are not present in the game then i highly doubt their weapons will be.
However, for a gameplay perspective and matchmaking balance i could see the new weapons they introduce holding similar functions and values e.g forerunner charge pistol - emp’s target = convenient plasma pistol

Unless the game is set after 2559, don’t expect an Elite presence.
I’d like to see the Beam Rifle and Carbine return with forerunner skins.

I think it would be easier if they brought in the same stuff we have been playing with for ten years. I know its a new trilogy in all but does anyone honestly not want all the original enemy weapons i doubt it.

That was point, Bungie wanted there to be no double ups in terms of weapons. The Spiker and the Plasma Rifle only exist because of the Campaign and Firefight.
I would like to be able to take on the covenant (mainly Elites), even if it is only in Firefight. I am sure the covenant and all of their stuff will still be in the game somewhere.
