Was it because of the Automag, which had a scope on it, kind of taking its place? Btw, what was the zoom magnification on it, 2.5x, 3x?
It was removed because the M7S and the Automag were taking its place in the sandbox, possibly so that the main starting weapon in Firefight wouldn’t be a weapon with the capacity to be effective everywhere on the battlefield. Also, the magnification on the Automag is 4x.
I wish it had been in. If you watch the cutscene where the brute stabs Romeo there is a br in that cutscene. When the brute appears he hits a policeman with his gravity hammer and that guard lets a br fly through the air when he gets launched. If only we could have used it.

Wow I never noticed that. I’ll have to look watch those again, I miss the BR too, it would’ve been awesome to use it as an ODST
@Rolling Flame, yeah that makes sense, the M7S was a great addition to the arsenal, the Automag was too, but it was a bit weak imo. They could’ve made it as a pick up though or something or just kept it in campaign.

It was probably also to see how the transition would go for Halo Reach without the Battle Rifle.

It could have, because I would pretty much clean house with the Carbine, but they could’ve lowered the health to compensate, which I thought was a bit high for an ODST.

Probably this
