Ideas for new REQ weapons/vehicles

Games Halo 5: Guardians

Since Whispered Truth is a thing, I think it would be cool to have power weapon versions of some other loadout weapons.

  • Dual SMGs. They act like a single weapon in most respects, except instead of smart-scope you fire the left SMG (though I can see this being a problem depending on controller layout, so maybe RT could just fire both SMGs at once). Both SMGs are locked together in a single model when dropped and are treated like a single weapon pickup, like the dual machine pistols from FEAR, if anyone actually remembers that game. - AR with underbarrel grenade launcher. Something I’ve always wanted in Halo. It was originally designed to have one, but it was replaced with a flashlight (that still just looks like an underbarrel launcher to me, and it even looks like there’s a shotgun-style feed hatch in the forestock). When you have it equipped, you can select the grenade launcher by cycling through your grenade inventory with the D-pad and press the grenade throw button to fire it.

To be honest, I want new maps and more random NPC spawn times and locations before I see more new REQs. The number of REQs is already pretty huge for the number of maps and situations out there. I don’t see this adding much, except frustration amongst those who have been asking for more quality games since launch. Let’s get that fixed first, then we can get new REQs.

I dont eeally ally like the nade launcher idea, but the dual SMG could be fun. Already an issue with nade spamming in the past, so I think a nade launcher variant would just cause problems…

Well not an AR loadout variant, but a Legendary/Mythic power weapon like Whispered Truth. Wouldn’t want the game to go all CoD noob-tubey by making it a standard attachment.
