In the recently released Red vs Blue videoooo, it shows Sarge with his trusty shotgun, however it looks identical to the Reach shotgun, please tell me this is just a “placeholder” mesh for the real shotgun?
Does it really matter what the shotgun looks like?
Im pretty sure its a placeholder because it looked exactly like halo reach’s shotgun
They can easily change the weapon, you know.
I think it’s the real deal (to some degree). I am happy with that because I personally liked the Reach shotgun, had a nice look to it I thought.
> Does it really matter what the shotgun looks like?
Kind of does…I’d rather there NOT be anything that even reminds me of Reach in this game.
I dont know, but thats the most obvious geuss. Just like they used Reachs AR when making CEA but it wasnt in the final.
> Im pretty sure its a placeholder because it looked exactly like halo reach’s shotgun
It’s probably a placeholder like people have said. They’re giving everything else a revamp, like the sniper, dmr and Br. I don’t see why they wouldn’t make the shotgun like more meaner or perhaps beefier lol.
That sniper definitely looks beefed up.
Aye, hopefully they’re waiting for a time to reveal it as a snippet of news, but it looks so bland in comparison to everything else in the video
> Does it really matter what the shotgun looks like?
Let alone a shotgun that’s still being tweaked for the final product. It doesn’t bother me much since i am aware of this simple fact. It looks in line of what a Halo shotgun looks like anyways.
It does bother the very nit picky fans who have a -Yoink!- for detail though. They are entitled to say though their complaints are VERY minor but blow it way out of proportion.
It is a modified version of the reach engine so mayb

Then you’re out of luck, I’m afraid.
Probably a placeholder seeing as how the shotgun’s geometry cuts into Sarge’s armor. Then again it could be a glitch, but it’s still most likely a placeholder.
Probably a placeholder, yes, but if it looks that way in the final game, I won’t really cry over it, you know?
The Shotgun really bothered me, I hope it’s a place holder. I can’t imagine it being the exact same from Reach, maybe something new but not the same as Reach

I’m not being nit picky, I’m just asking if it is or not ? I haven’t one negative reaction to the game yet, just the fact tr shotgun stood out to me as looking to similar
Hopefully it’s just a placeholder like you said.

You mean aside from AA’s and Loadouts being in Halo 4. Ntm, Sprint as a permanent feature? lol
I hope it is I liked the look of Reach’s shotgun.
Its the placeholder derp
