new weapons/gametypes to be added

with the upcoming dlc bringing back the spnkr rocket launcher id be down to see more guns from past halos being brought back. one of my personal favorite weapons in all of halo was the needle rifle and ive been dying to see it make a comback. somer other weapons that id also like to see brought back would be the gravity hammer or grenade launcher from reach, flame thrower etc anyone else agree?

I think they showed concept art of the Gravity Hammer in on The Sprint episodes and The Needle Rifle was just teased at the end of the Live Stream preview of the Cartographer’s Gift update yesterday. It seems weapons will be added over time. I hope gametypes like Oddball and Assault are added soon.

oddball is so much fun i hope it comes back that and infection

I’ve seen other posts here on the forum asking for new gametypes. Weapons will for sure be added, since they’ll be adding the SPNKR into Arena, but they haven’t talked about adding classic gametypes yet. I just think that Slayer, CTF and Strongholds isn’t enough.

It isn’t. We just have to hope they’re doing something about it.

ya i kinda feel that absence of some staple game types like doubles, snipers, oddball, infection and grifball was a huge mistake but with the addition of social playlist coming(which shouldve been at launch) there is promise. it is lame that in order to get some staple gametypes and features like forge through monthly updates most of this stuff shouldve been at launch

Rip Plasma Rifle, you will be forever missed.

i doubt itll come back cuz storm rifle unfortunately

If they add the needle rifle I’ll cry in sadness in anger because they already messed up the Covenant Carbine And the Battle Rifle. I know they are bringing back the classic BR but how does taht in BTB or any Arena Game mode, it’s not even going to be in Forge. If they add the Needle Rifle it will just have a chappy and usless reflex sight like the BR and Carbine. And as for the Gravity Hammer if they Bring that back, there better be Brutes in Campaign because it’s a Brute weapon no point in it of the, and if they add that then the Brute Shot, Brute Plasma Rifle, Spider, Maurer Firebombing Grenades and spike Grenades better return to

I’m not against adding new weapons, we could use them seeing as how only 19.21% of Halo 5’s Arsenal is avliable in Forge.

well yes it was a carbine but if you look at the guy who died he had needles in his head so my guess is theyre treating it like a carbine variant and it behaves like the needle rifle

the “sights” the br and carbine have provide the same level of zoom as they did in past halos the visual that shows the spartan aiming down sight is purely cosmetic. its just a different take on the weapon. like it is the military for the unsc and covenant and realistically they would add different attachments on weapons like the case with the carbine and br. and you can clearly see the br has a rail system that allows for different scopes hence the warzone versions. if the carbine and br had this style when they were introduced in halo 2 343 wouldnt have “messed up” the br and carbine. also brutes dont need to be in the game to have their weapons look at halo 4 grav hammer was in it and no brutes granted it would give a reason to add campaign dlc

We’ll then why cant i rival a DMR with a Stock BR but in Warzone I can with the Longshot variant?
The Gravity Hammer made no sense what so ever it’s a Brute weapon and the only Brute weapon if you bring one don’t do it half way, go all the way bring it all back. That would be like adding promathean weapons woth no promatheans, (in campaign) ok I found a random scattershot just lying about, where’s the knight at? Oh what’s this that’s the only promathean weapon avliable… what’s the point. I’m just saying some of us actually liked having All of the Brute weapons not just one of them, it made no sense for it to be in Halo 4.

YESSSS we need that grenade launcher back for that warthog gamemode that was in Reach, the one with the rocket warthogs. I just love hitting people with that thing

I looked back on the video looks like it does do needle rifle, but why not just make it Needle Rifle instead of Needle Carbine lol, any way that won’t be in Forge either.
