Why not just have no AR in Halo 4?

Remember Halo 2? No AR. Why can’t we have this in Halo 4?

Because I like it?

The Chief kind of went to sleep with one next to him, too.

Are we talking Campaign or multiplayer?

Taking away something that is good completely is not the right way to go.

I personally don’t like the AR very much, but why does it matter? It’s not an overpowered or overused weapon by any means. Its presence doesn’t affect me one way or another.

If it’s balanced anything like Halo 3 I dont have a problem with it. Backing up and strafing with the BR I was almost always able to outplay them.

Because people want a diverse sandbox with niche, utility, and power weapons. I’m not saying that the AR fulfilled it’s purpose in Halo 3 or Reach, but I’d rather that 343 balance it so it does work in it’s niche instead of just outright removing it.
