The title says it all, folks. What is your favourite weapon in Halo 4?
I’ll start since I’m the author of the thread. My favourite weapon in Halo 4 is the Assault Rifle. The AR was my first gun to ever use in a video-game, and I’ve been loving it ever since Halo CE. What I really hated about Reach was that the AR was absolutely useless, it was a joke and a middle finger to all the AR lovers like me. The AR is back to being useful in Halo 4, and I applaud 343 for that. It’s not overpowered although.
Even though I usually select my loadout with my Prime-skinned Assault Rifle, I will switch in weapons depending on my situation and current condition on the battlefield. For example, I’ll trade it my AR for a sniper on Vortex or Ragnarock, because close-range combat does not happen as often on those maps. One key to becoming a good Halo player is to adapt to your situation.

Aha I love both of those weapons so much! Sometimes I just ditch the Binary Rifle for a Beam Rifle just to hear that amazing sound. Love Scattershot, it’s so satisfying to see your enemies disintegrate completely.
