What weapon would you like to see in Infinite?

Title. I would like a human melee weapon and a high powered sniper rifle like the Stanchion.

A human melee weapon would be nice, considering they the Elites and Brutes both have their own. But coming up with something that would be logical in-universe would be the key.

As fore a Forerunner melee weapon, a pair of energy gauntlets would be cool. They would use mini gravity wells to throw combatants across the map. Pull R in close range to toss a victim forward against a surface, or at sword strike distance, Hold R to draw the victim to you and then smash them.

Yeah I always wanted a human melee weapon, even if it’s just us running around with a combat knife.

Maybe they could make it energized or something.

I would like to see a staff / stick / flag pole - Something that you could (use to?) run fast with, let you propel up walls quicker instead of jumping, grabbing, pulling up. I would rather that you actually have to aim it. That it can be used at a longer distance to stun or if someone’s on that list bit of health with one hand. Then gives a harder hit if in closer with two hands, but still takes several hits to kill. Could be swapped out for the knife if need be.

A thruster - That runs really fast, or lets you do a higher jump, a quicker charge and a no-energy build up needed ground pound. Once you grab it and it start it, its on its countdown timer that doesn’t stop.

Some kind of taser - hand held only and only stuns for a few seconds. Kind of like the emp blaster with the “noob kill”, but stuns em when up close and doesn’t need to build up. I’m thinking this is a 2 weapon close attack.

I’d like to see the Sentinel Beam or some other kind of non-Promethean Forerunner weapon make an appearance. They could get really creative with a new class of weapon along those lines as well.

The covenant carbine. My favorite weapon in all of Halo.

Grenade Launcher. Very fun weapon.

The brute shot! Haven’t seen it for a while, not even in Halo 5, although now would be a great time to bring it back or introduce a new type of gun similar to it.

I’d like to see the SPNKr rocket launcher and not the abomination from Halo 5, I’d also like to see the magnum and classic shotgun back in the game where they belong.

Seeing more weapons that interact with the sandbox or the environment around the player. These are just on top of my head but a gravity launcher for example, that can fling players, objects, grenades etc or a weapon that changes the environment of the game
(A flamethrower might be able to light certain objects on fire, creating smoke, making it difficult to fight from afar)

Imagine what the forge community could do with that.

I like that. Adding a smoke grenade.

I’m happy with all the weapons. I would love to be able to carry 3 or 4 at a time. That would make it more fun having a weapon wheel and being able to keep those specialty weapons on you that you only use once in a while

The Banished take on brute shot.

Fast and agile light mortar vehicle. Basically a ghost like craft missing the forward guns. But with a light mortar in the back. Nothing as powerful as the wraith. Instead of brute force it would use fast ambush tactics and maneuverability

But how would you differentiate it from the energy sword without making it garbage? I thought the whole point was that the covenant get the sword and hammer and the USNC gets the shotgun and so they balance out.

Personally I don’t really want to see any new weapons added but rather removed but since that’s not the topic I will say we can add the Flame Grenade from H3

60 round mag assault rifle, combat knife, flamethrower and the energy lance

I love weapons like the Hydra. There’s something about that ultra slick, super futuristic look and feel to it. For me it was a replacement and improvement to the Plasma Launcher from Reach.
So id love to see it return.
I know its like beating a dead horse, but the OG Plasma Rifle is a staple in the weapons sandbox, so it’s full return would be a welcome sight. Maybe have it act more like the Covenant equivalent to the SMG, and bring back the Plasma Repeater as like an AR equivalent, instead of the Storm Rifle.
I do like some of the aesthetics of the Promethean weapons, and I loved the idea that 343i had during Halo 4’s development of having sockets that weapons plug into, in order to made new weapons. So like every Promethean weapon starts as a Bolt Shot, and when you acquire a Suppressor frame, the added parts morph and attach themselves to the current weapon, altering its function and damage. Its a to make the weapons feel more alien and distinct from human equivalent variants. It would also fit the Forerunner, super advanced tech architecture as well.

Bad take, the hydra is a bad weapon with a low skill requirement and the plasma rifle isn’t meant to be an equivalent to any UNSC weapon and has a role to fill, ontop of that the plasma repeater was a redundant weapon that held no place in the sandbox and was a direct downgrade of the plasma rifle. When adding a new weapon think if it fits and will it be redundant

Do you mean the revenant?
