What’s the gig 343? There have been a few reports of the plasma launcher from Halo Reach being found and acquired in Halo 5 warzone firefight. This was. Not announced nor was it in the req list but is in the game? What’s up with that 343? My friend’s buddy holding it in-game.
Fess up!
You’re not going to do a Bungie on us and withhold content, are you?
It fires stickes, has a world model but not a playerview one. No UI elements, no sound. Normally I’d say it was a asset hiding in the game’s code since Halo Reach (further proof that the game is on the same exact engine and not some new “built from the ground up” one…), but because it has a world model (you can see it on the ground and in people’s hands), and not a playermodel (can’t actually see it on your screen while you’re holding it), I think it’s something they’re planning on adding back, and they accidentally included like half the tags for it in the update.
Yeah I saw a grunt drop one after killed it. I thought it was a storm rifle, so I doubled back and there it was the plasma launcher laying on the ground. I couldn’t pick it up though

Same thing happened to me but I was able to pick it up
Looking it up, it appears to be a Work in progress(or just a rough port). I never see the grunt actually fire it, so it likely doesn’t have an AI for it yet. There isn’t a first-person model, so it must be a REALLY last minute item. The plasma textures are like pre-alpha almost.
