Why is noone talking about this thing?
I think it looks good but a bit generic, it’s probably the worst Promethean weapon so far in terms of looks.
I think it looks like it could play well but it’s too underpowered. I’ll probably choose an AR or Storm Rifle before I play with a Suppressor.
What do you think about it?
Footage of it for anyone who hasn’t seen it;

EDIT:
I gotta say the Third person model looks badass;
It’s the First person model I don’t feel fond of.

Love it
I really was looking foward to the halo 4 weapons,and this…OMG,awesome,i like it,but,yeah,i prefer the ar or the storm rifle,but i will be playing all the weapons so…
PD:I prefer the promethean supresor than 8 versions of the plasma rifle like in reach
It does look a little under powered IMO, but I’ll have to get my hands on it before I can say for sure.

^^^^Opinion.
Theres no point in posting something like this if you have no idea what it actually plays like your wasting time speculating.
I like the visual design just fine but man does it seem underpowered. The only time I saw it be used effectively is at point blank while I have seen the AR and Storm Rifle used at(comparatively) much longer ranges.
I hope it is worthwhile in the final game.
I think they need to up the damage a little bit. I was watching this GameSpot video and this guy put a whole clip into this guy before killing him at medium range.

Exactly my thoughts, it seems really underpowered. I could barely see the effects it was having on whoever it was shooting at.

Let me say this again, Turrible.

Also it’s your opinion that there’s no point in posting that…
Honestly, noone’s put enough gameplay in it to really judge how good it is yet.
It looks more flexible than the Storm Rifle in terms of range capability, but less flexible than the AR, however it seems less powerful than a Storm Rifle, and more powerful than an AR.

Do you think it’s more powerful than the AR? For me the AR packs more of a punch than the Suppressor.
Just based on that video alone I would support a small tweak to get more damage for the thing. It seems to be suffering from the Plasma Repeater sickness where it was easy to strip shields but took ages to take down the health of a player (compared to the AR).

Yep, I actually think they should change the weapon to two mini Promethean Suppressors on each hand, the damage increased like you said but everything else the same. Would make it more unique.
Looks as though the bloom ruins it, and the other fully-auto guns in this game. It looked alright point blank.
Deff seams under powered and look at that bloom. Remember that these are all test videos and not necessarily a depiction of what will be released in November.
It as the best reload animation and it’s very good looking, BUT it’s useless IMO.
The gun itself looks very cool, but in FP view it looks ugly. Like a huge lump in your hands. Its also pretty weak (hopefully they will buff it before launch).
That being said, I will be using it a lot >:D
It’s a lackluster weapon. At least the other Promethean weapons look/sound interesting. This thing looks like an uninspired giant chunk of metal. Takes up too much screen space imo.
Can’t testify to its damage, but I think I’d rather use the AR/SR. At least they have character.
