Legendary Version of The Assault Rifle Poll

We all know and love it! The MA5D Assault Rifle

Like this post for 343 to make a Legendary Assault Rifle.

But what changes would the Legendary have? Here’s some ideas:

  1. 60 round magazine

  2. More bulky build inspired by concept art

  3. Different firing sound

What would you put on your Legendary AR ?

Bring back the SAW as the Legendary Assault Rifle.

The 60 round mag, with the powerful sound that CE had. Keep the accurate and bullet spread however.

Design I’m not so sure, they all look nice.

Name? I kinda like one suggestion I heard on another thread Chief’s… something dam I forgot.

Id rather legendaries be for pw only
As for other weapons theyd have alternate weapon skins example being the reach variant AR as a weapon skin option or the plasma repeater being a skin for the storm rifle.
Theyd function the same but look diffrent. Only problem this would cause is weapon identification but im fairly sure if you see a brute plasma rifle and a normal one ,knowing its just a skin, youd figure out how it works.

That shouldn’t be the case, heck the H2 plasma pistol would be a fantastic legendary weapon lol. And an SMG that comes with two for some pseudo dual wielding.

LOL they should just add a custom weapon building feature for custom games XD

Instead of duel wielding the SMG how about duel wielding energy swords

Oh of course, but they would need a way to make that work into an advantage that is not OP and also not just a useless decoration.

They said something along the lines of calling it “the Keys pistol” (since it’s essentially his, and he gives it to you at the beginning of CE.)

To OP: A legendary version of the AR? That’s basically a SAW.

I would have to agree with the spirit of this thought. If there is but one Legendary fullyauto in Halo, it is the SAW!

The CE is an SMG in AR skin like the M6 was a pistol in DMR skin, so I don’t need it’s DpH when I have the SMG… But if you want to say hello to my little friend?? OK, I can dig that :smiley:

I just swung by to say that I think the idea of legendary weapons in Halo is a silly notion that should have been nipped in the bud before it was even suggested. It is a shooter, not an adventure game. Guns should be guns and a sword with a golden glow shouldn’t allow you to run faster than the sword with a white glow. That’s my two-cents.

Legendary weapons are stupid they have allowed the -Yoink- that is the green tube rocket launcher to stay in the game when it should have been removed!!! Legendary weapons should be Easter eggs in campaign not some addition feature we should be all thankful for. “Oh wow the old rocket launcher is back in the game be greateful the 343 lords have given us our wishes”

its -Yoinking!- -Yoink-!!!
