How do you unlock more weapons?

Halo:MCC is my first Halo ever since I come from ps3, so please excuse me for being a noob. I played one round of the Halo 5 beta, and I started out with this weapons that’s not that good, but then I picked up an SMG and started doing better… do you unlock more weapons as you level up in the beta?

EDIT: After one round, the matchmaking wouldn’t work and I couldn’t go back too the main menu… so I had too power off my xbox one and go back to the game. Hopefully this isn’t a problem

Equal starts, but just know that precision weapons rule everything, so run to one ASAP

Lol that isn’t how Halo works. You start off with the same weapons and pickup weapons from the map and what not. Halo is a skill based game not really a get a new weapon and destroy game. It isn’t like CoD.

Obvious troll. This is a zoo now. Please do not feed the animals.

Yeah OP, Halo doesn’t work like that. With the exception of Halo 4, you don’t unlock new weapons as you level up. Everyone starts with the same weapon, and then have to fight over the better ones that spawn on the map when the match actually starts.

Precision weapons rule halo, been that way since CE, no hablo engles?

The gametype available in the beta has a preset loadout for everyone. It will change as time progresses, but as of right now, you’re stuck with what 343 gives you. You can always pick up weapons from around the map. Also, the AR is a damn god game in the beta right now. Not sure how you think it’s not very good.

I’m not trolling, I have played the beta once and I do own Halo MCC. If you want proof, check my gamertag and compare my games. Everyone else, thanks for the replies.

Halo:MCC is my first Halo ever, maybe the weapon is good and I just suck.

Halo’s multiplayer works like this:
When everyone spawns, they all have an Assault Rifle and Magnum, with two Frag Grenades. Around the map are weapons on the ground, with a strong weapon in the center if the map. To be good at Halo, you must pick up weapons (usually the Battle Rifle or DMR) and get head shots to win the battles. If you feel like getting the strong power weapon, expect competition and fighting over it.

> Seems kinda backwards to me. halo is whoever picks up the better gun will win the fight, which doesn’t take much skill in my mind. being honest, I love the game, but just my opinion.

Not that way at all because the person who picks it up can easily be taken out by say an Ar or a magnum.

Hi. I am relatively new to halo 5 (i got it last wednesday) and I was wondering how you equip the different guns. Like, I have two different Battle Rifles in my collection, but idk how to use the second one. The first one is default, the second one has recon sight and kinetic bolts. I saw this post, so I decided to post my comment here. Any help is welcome. Thx! :slight_smile:
