When I saw the Sniper for H4, the first thing I thought was; Why does it look more primitive than CE’s Sniper?(It’s not just technologically looking better, CE’s sniper looks miles better in general in my opinion).
As you can see, H4’s is a lot more bulkier and has way too much things stick out when CE’s doesn’t have anything sticking out at all.
It looks way too complicated and unnecessary in some places. It looks less advanced, that’s the worst thing,
I’d’ve thought it’d look more simple than any of the previous snipers since it’s been 5 years. It SHOULD look more simple too. It’s been 8 years since CE and it looks like its devolved. You need to fix this 343. Remove all the mechanical bits on the sniper and give it a sleek look. Have the screen just be a magnified camera. Remove all buttons and mechanical parts. Give it a sleek aesthetic. Don’t make it look bulky or like a tank. Make it feel like the Sniper from CE has evolved. We should be able to walk, jump, run, jump off buildings and feel good about it.
That’s exactly what the CE was like and that’s exactly why the CE sniper is the best in the franchise.
> IMHO it would look a lot better if the back of the scope was all just a big blue screen rather than the small screen AND the scope
I think the back of the screen should just be a magnified camera. That would explain a lot as when the Spartan looks into it, the image becomes clearer. It also seems way more futuristic.

Spartans don’t look into the scope, the HUD of their helmet zooms and shows where the bullet will hit. It still makes sense for it to be a camera though because soldiers still need to use it, I thing the scope from halo 3, reach, and anniversary would work fine
Can you guys photoshop it to have one big green magnified glass on it, rather than what we see now. It looks like a tank for sure, but a -Yoink- tank at that
It takes up an unnecessary amount of the screen… If it’s gonna look that powerful it better pin someone’s head to the nearest wall when you get a headshot.
There is already another thread that is raging on the sniper and how it looks, just go to that thread. Also, stop raging on 343i for everything thing they do before the game comes out, it may not be final you know.

It does look advanced. It’s just that people don’t like change.
I dont see the need for a cord on the scope/screen…How is that tech upgrade? Possibly a removable scope and doubles as recon spotting/binocular…thing. (not for game play)

Woah, watch it bud. I’ve been completely open to everything 343 has done (aside from control scheme) I personally think everything but the scope looks fine, the scope just doesn’t make sense. We’ve had a high resolution camera view with up to 10x zoom since Halo 2 because, at this point in time, magnifying scope sights are obsolete. It’d be weird to break that now wouldn’t it?

343 mixed the Reach and the Halo 3 snipers I’m guessing, meeting somewhere’s in between. I think the new sniper looks like a tank. Hopefully it’ll be really powerful and really loud.

How so? It’s a Sniper Rifle… A big scope for a Sniper Rifle does make sense. It’s designed to allow the player to take down their targets from a big distance in any kind of vision, hence the reason why the scope has a monitor to see through visions that are not so easy to see enemies at a distance.
What’s with the big cream coloured circle when it’s completely useless? And the other side of the sniper scope completely blocked off… That is basically what 343i have tried to avoid doing. Don’t get me wrong; I like the sniper from the previous games, and Halo 4’s sniper. But honestly; there’s no worry about the looks of it when it comes to this case in comparison…
