Honestly, I love the new weapons, my favorite has to be the Fusion Coil, or "The NoobCube"
As long as we can drop it where we want to set up an ambush
Welcome, the Justin Y of halo
I’m really hoping you don’t need the grappling hook to use the fusion coils but I don’t think it’s necessary because there was a pick up option also I love the grappling hook btw the reason for saying I hope you don’t need it to throw fusion coils is it will be so much easier to forge a map built for fusion coil war if I don’t have to account for having a grappling hook pickup for every player lol
@@prometheanchief5144 exactly
More like a Nooboid Cuboid.
343: says you can go everywhere
*ME AND THE BOYS GOING TO THE LIBRARY KNOWING DAMN WELL WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE*
it would be so cool if they added the library as a secret for people to find and suffer against infinite flood
Fun fact: Combat Evolved has 9 main levels and 1 mental stability test.
😂
Honestly right now I’m so hungry for infinite stuff that if halo follower made a video on the type of grass in the demo I would gobble it up
But the internet says you shouldn't like this game........
Crush lemons lol
@@crushlemons Digital Foundry made a video CRITICIZING Halo Infinite graphics and people were mad that they went "easy" on 343 lol
I hope the SAW comes back, I love the look of it and it's just so fun to use
Crimson King it’s one of the greatest weapons in the halo series.
Yes it is the best lmg or say the only lmg in halo officialy
I think the SAW, Railgun, and mantis are garunteed to return they've kinda become part of the core unsc sandbox
The answer is so overpowered
Yeah it is hope they all return I really like crushing enemies with mantis
The Commando may not look like a Halo gun but it still looks fun as hell to use
True dat
My thoughts exactly
Yep, fell in love at first sight
Agreed
The commando totally does look halo
I would tweak the look of the ammo counter though
Also, Megacontrux have a set with a classic shotgun so called the "tactical shotgun" it is assumed that IGN got it wrong, IGN isn't famous for being exactly accurate with all they say.
Remember that they changed resident evil 2 remake from an 8.5 to a 9 because they didn't knew the game had a replayable mode
In general, it's a good idea not to entirely trust early reviews. Publication speed usually comes at the cost of the reviewer not being able to fully explore everything.
@bovrov dov true
I really hope they bring back the Sticky Detonator AND the Grenade Launcher, possibly with the detonator being some kind of variant of the GL
After seeing the hidden Reach Plasma Launcher in Halo 5, I’m really hoping it comes back! With enhanced mobility it might not work, but I miss landing all four stickys on an unsuspecting player
Considering this is Halo INFINITE wouldnt it be cool if we got EVERY halo weapon ever (Excluding Promethian guns, and obvious re-designs, but the Needle Rifle and Plasma Rifle together in the same game would be just as cool as the Sticky Detonator and the Grenade Launcher!
@@Free_Krazy It would be really cool, but I think the main problem with that would be that it'd be incredibly hard to balance everything at once. I think at least we'll see a decent number of guns either directly from or at least inspired by the old games like the assault rifle and the Mangler.
thanks for saying "so far" instead of clickbait like EVERY SINGLE WEAPON AND VEHICLE AND ABILITY AND EQUIPMENT IN INFINITE
You can actually shoot human weapons through the deployable cover in Halo 3. Helps a ton on Legendary.
I didn't know that
Yeah I commented that too. It took years for me to realize that haha. Spiker rounds also go through and maybe even carbine.
Its actually not just human weapons its any ballistic weapon the brute spiker can also go through and I'm pretty sure the mauler as well
How tf did I not know that God dammit
Wait you can WHAT!?!?!
343 has already confirmed that the Grapple Shot is a pickup in multiplayer that "you are going to have to fight for"
Epic, I wasnt looking forward to having everyone jumping about like kangaroos on coke
And that equipment might work differently in multiplayer.
Thank god
Multiplayer is heading back to the roots of Halo 3 and Reach? Not that bad if you think about it
Brutus What do you mean not bad? For most that’s great news. I just really hope they don’t mess it up.
When it comes to the vehicles, I really hope the Mantis returns. Love stomping about in that thing. Can you imagine finding one lying around while exploring the Ring and using it to wander about, slaughtering as many Banished as you can until it breaks?
It will be so damn fun lmao
Me too! I really hope it returns to its former glory of Halo 4, in Halo 5 they nerfed so many of the vehicles and the Mantis was hit the hardest despite having some really cool variants. Who knows, maybe the diverse environments will lend themselves to all those camouflage variants from Halo 5.
Nah man, it's got to be the prototype suit
Brambo
The halo 4 one felt powerful in the hands of a good user, fragile but can still take a hit and deliver huge damage. It felt like a reinforced glass canon. The halo 5 one felt like bringing a trumpet to a tank fight, at least as the player riding it, when it’s in the hands of enemies it feels like all they do is spawn camp.
@@aesirofgames Couldn't agree more. H5's Mantis changed things for no reason. The whole charging of the missiles is pointless when they fire full-auto by default, and let's not forget the machine gun which can sometimes take an entire overheat cycle to kill a low-level enemy, it's basically shooting tic tacs lmao.
Loving the new weapons. I really don't mind if the new UNSC wepons look too "generic" yes Halo has it's own unique art style, but they still look good in my opinion. I mean they look like ballistic weapons, different manufacturers have different design elements, i think they fit fine with the UNSCs militaristic aesthetic.
Yes pretty much! Misriah made some really interesting gear and hardware.
Robert Welch I don’t think that realistic equals generic like most of the community likes to say. The new realistic guns look really good.
Also MK50 looks pretty good like nowadays firearms with a trigger guard.
How I hope the og shotgun and magnum come back, they're so cool looking
Tbh, i think there are too many burst weapons so far
I think the rail systems along with the fact that the upcoming nerf AR has the ammo counter on a rail and can be removed. Is pretty good additional evidence for gun customization
Kaiser Knapp hopefully we can use it in multiplayer it would be cool to have like a thermal scope for a br and a suppressor
Kaiser Knapp they could even put a system like h4 in so that we can customize our load outs so we can spawn with our customized guns
Not sure about that in multiplayer though as halo multiplayer has always been about everyone starting off the same and using the map and power weapons to gain an advantage over the other team
And the fact that a gun skin for the game is included
maybe only in casual multiplayer
but in ranked we'll still have the fair fight system
For those wandering, the magnum seems to be back, there's a screenshot, in the gameplay trailer, in which chief is a warthog with a marine, this marine seems to be with a pistol very much different to the sidekick, more square and with a curved handle, very much like magnum
You,re mother es square w curved handle, says one.
@@nuclearjanitors no u
I don’t think the Commando is a UNSC weapon. Maybe the Commando is an older weapon that was commonly used by insurrectionist and non-UNSC forces.
That would honestly make me feel a lot better about it's design. I hope you're correct
It does look pretty similar to a dmr and smg though
This would make sense. The Insurrectionists hardly ever use modern gear, just because it's easier to nab old items that the UNSC doesn't particularly care about, as opposed to the new, more expensive, versions.
@Alex Kemp The Banished camp in the demo had human weapons. Canonically, the Banished would scavenge weapons that they came across. The Commando Rifles in their possession could easily be from raiding colonies or trading with humans (before "the Human-Banished war")
Exactly what I was thinking. People seem to be forgetting, 343 might be including new weapons from various human factions, that we've never seen before.
12:20 We also hear Condors as being mentioned, but it might just be crashed or decorative.
the commando didnt have a muzzle brake, it had a flash hider. also the SAW wasnt bullpup
good vid tho
WAIT A SECOND THATS TRUE
The sniper is also not bullpup and the SMG is also not bullpup
The SAW doesnt count. Traditionally the UNSC always use bull pup ARs, battle rifles, and marksman rifles. The SAW is an LMG.
@@scathelock5648 You could argue that the older smg's chamber is a bullpup I'm too lazy to check.
I checked it anyways and I would say the magazine feeds the ammo from behind the trigger so I'll call it a bullpup for sure.
@@robertogonzalez1907 mate what? it is bullpup
I want to see the brute shot coming back, and also jump meeles to inflict more damage, so that you can jump meele one hit kill someone with the brute shot.
The Bulldog will never replace my beloved M90, *never*
A fellow man of class... I like it, but yeah I hope the Bulldog is a more nimble run and gun weapon while the M90 remains the slower firing, hard hitting monster it's always been should both be in the game. If not then yeah I say scrap the Bulldog for the M90.
Guardsman Bovrov Absolutely agree man, 343 would have to be dumb in the head to get rid of the classic shotty
Which one was Halo 3’s? That one was dog shit in multiplayer
@@combineeliteunit8769 that was technically a variant of the M90. And even though it sucks, that was probably my personal favorite shotty from all the games just because it looked and sounded so beefy when you shot it. So if it had that same feel in this game with an overall buff to its stats It'd be the only gun I'd wanna use.
Randomizer Televiewage design yes. The shape and LED lights on it were very aesthetically pleasing. Those states though made me use it less (except for campaign)
YES!!! Gonna throw this on tonight while at work. Thanks for the content you’ve been putting out, Ian!
With Nerf having the Halo license and releasing an MA40 in 2 months, my mind is going wild with the thought of being able to buy Nerf versions of any of the guns shown so far!
Plus, it's so fucking wonderful seeing the BR be back to looking like it's classic-era counterparts.
I really hope it’s full auto with at least 18 darts. Or some innovative way to hold more rounds in a small space because there is no way you can fit any more than about 8 darts if the mag is the same size as the one in the games. Just make it full auto unlike BoomCo, that was such a letdown
Should have been Airsoft.
United Nations Space Command that would be fuckin awesome
I’ve seen vids of people making working halo firearms, fingers crossed for an IRL DMR
(Also, for some reason DMR tried to autocorrect to suck my dick)
When halo infinite comes out im just gonna go straight to forge if its there to see wat weapons are there
if it launches with forge
Thats always one of my first moves lol
Can't wait to wait 6 months after launch so I can play forge!
NightNugget there won’t be forge
What I hope will come of course is the scorpian tank, the banished wraith, the banished ghost, the SPNKR rocket launcher, fuel rod cannon, flood, the hunters. Probably most if not all come because it's a halo game but I feel like they don't have it made yet.
There’s a brute using a Commando in the second gameplay trailer.
Nice catch!
Original
In the gameplay demo, there's a brute using the bulldog, right before the player goes and picks one up
It’s just like halo 2 when the brutes have the shotguns
It’s in the first 8 minute gameplay too as soon as chief gets to the top of the hill. I can’t believe everyone missed that. I feel like I’ve also seen a brute using a commando at some point
Just a note for the Mega Construx section:
The Halo Reach Style Shotgun has been used for every new shotgun. It’s been used to represent the shotguns of Halo 5 and 4.
The BR-85 mold however is used commonly in the Halo 4 and 5 sets, but it could also be chocked up to them not wanting to make something similar to the BR-55 with the different attachments.
The SMG. The new SMG mold has been used to for every era, going as far back Halo 2.
The Sniper is the same story.
It feels so good to have halo again
I really hope the old Carbine is still there. It's my favorite Halo weapon and its spot in the sandbox has always been more to my style than the BR, DMR, or Needle Rifle.
I don't think the Magler fires Plasma it looks more like a tungstin dart.
Matthew Arenson definitely. It looks straight viscous. I would be cool that when you reload the amount of ammo you have left is shown with the empty cartridges
@@jshsnipa If you look at its ejection it looks like the projectile actually goes slightly over the read shell casing.
The Mangler looks like, and probably is, just a Mauler that’s been modified to shoot slugs instead of buckshot
The pick up prompts sometimes have info about the weapons.
Mangler
Pistol/Kinetic/Single-shot
Kinetic is the same damage type as the UNSC weapons.
Commando
Tactical Rifle/Kinetic/Auto
Sam that’s a good point. Maybe the mauler will appear? I actually doubt it because they don’t want two guns with the same silhouette
The New and Old guns alone are what has me really excited for Infinite, I want the sandbox to be wide and fun to use...not simple reskins with OP/artificial stats like Halo 5.
I can't wait to see the Vehicles too
i have to say the feedback on all the weapons looks like it feels soo nice, i can imagine the slight rumble in the controller as gunts are popped, elites shields ripped and brutes armour shredded
The Commando is really cool imo. I like the general aesthetic even though I agree it's NOT a Halo gun.
"VK78 marks the first in Halo's rifle armory to not be a bullpup"
... Sniper Rifle.
I think it makes sense in this case to change the pistol out because it doesn't make sense having the marines to use the ever so powerful magnum and considering that it seems the only allies around are marines so it would make sense chief uses it
For me the Sidekick and Commando are weird. Their sound, look, and performance are all cool, but at the same time those two weapons (especially the pistol) could not look less-Halo to me. The sidekick looks like a typical modern Sig or Walther handgun with the Commando being a Destiny/Titanfall SCAR. Idk, I think some variation of the AR or SAW would've worked better for such a weapon (like the MA5K Carbine from Ghosts of Onyx) and then bring back either the H2/H2A or H5 magnum designs for this new pistol and it would've been perfect. For me the H2/H2A magnum and H5 gunfighter magnum have just the right amount of variation from modern-day weapons to look and feel like Halo.
Besides those two I loved all the other weapons and even if those two^ don't change, I'll be alright, the Commando has already grown on me. I'm very hopeful that the sandbox is much bigger, and hope they bring back the Sticky Detonator and maybe even include different variations of weapons, like the BR55 and BR85. After all, the different art style weapons are just different models of the same weapon, so why not have all the versions?
Idea: In CE we saw several different climates on the ring: forest, beach, desert, snowy mountains, etc. so what if all those camouflaged UNSC vehicles from Halo 5's req system can return to Infinite and have more of a purpose? I would love to match the camo of my vehicle to the region I'm in, maybe you won't be detected by enemies as easily...
The Railgun is my favorite 343 addition to Halo, and I would also love to see it return.
The weapons all look great and fun to use, but that grappling hook looks like the most fun because it could make action far more fast paced and I love that
There's one more in the MegaConstrux sets - the Plasma Launcher from Halo: Reach, now sporting a red color scheme. The Elite Major in the "UNSC Marine Gear Pack" set has it on his back.
It's interesting because it wouldn't be the first time 343 tried to bring it back - an incomplete one was also in Halo: 5's Warzone but more of a glitched weapon than anything else.
They did say grapple is a pickup in MP. It kinda seems like they might do like a mix of armor abilities and equipment. Some of the equipment might have more armor ability-like effects that have a limited charge. Maybe like a jetpack/jump pack that only gives you one or 2 boosted jumps
I’m honestly sad to see the ADS system from guardians isn’t in infinite as far as we can tell. I was a huge fan of every weapon having its own kind of scope, and it made things really easy for me as someone with slight motor control issues. I feel as though the complaints some people had with halo 4 and 5 have caused 343 to play it safe rather than try to make something interesting
Good video man. I wish people would, instead of looking at the new weapons and equipment from an outside perspective, they maybe consider how they could operate within the halo game. So instead of looking at the grapel hook 😄 in terms of "this isn't titanfall". Look at it from a gameplay perspective of halo, and you playing chief and what tactics can be employed with this combination. You did a similar thing with the carbine. You didn't just state you didn't like the design from an aesthetic aspect (which is fine also) but you brought up an important point linked to gameplay. I respect that.
It could make sense that the aesthetics of the Commando would be different from the other classic style of UNSC weapons, if it was made by another manufacturer in the Halo lore.
Just wanna add a few things to the discussion.
1. I'd say that the Gravity Hammer is certainly appearing in Halo: Infinite. If you look closely at the Chief's helmet visor on the cover art, you can see Escharum in its reflection holding a Gravity Hammer.
2. I only learned this earlier today, but you actually CAN shoot through the back of the Deployable Cover in Halo 3. However, it only seems to work with certain UNSC weapons. I can't help but wonder if this Drop Wall will behave the same: Allowing certain human weapons to fire through the back, but Covenant weapons being unable to do the same. If that's the case, maybe deployable equipment can also be upgraded, with one of the options for the Drop Wall being to allow more types of weaponry to be compatible.
i love how we can tell how old this video is simply because of the details of the shotgun being out of date, it's not a replacement per say, it's more of a 'shotgun start' weapon, made for those who wanna start or get a non-power-weapon shotgun and get right into the fray, with 343 having since stated that "when they implement older weapons, they want them to feel like the older weapons". so there's room for the oldschool magnum and the ol' reliable shotgun of Halo's earlier days.
Edit since i've seen more of the video: there's also been confirmation that the grapple will be treated as a pickup in multiplayer to be fought over, rather than a spawn/start item.
I love the new weapons they look realistic rather than the cartoony designs of the past
Everybody is talking about how the new UNSC weapons don't look like UNSC guns, which I agree with (though I think the Shotgun and pistol could be fixed with some minor tweaks to the Magazine/body frame and grip respectively), but the Pulse Carbine doesn't look "Covenant" either. The purple sections aren't smooth and organic looking enough. Maybe it's supposed to be a "Banished Covenant" gun, but it doesn't really match the Banished's design aeshetic either. I honestly think the H5 Covenant weapon/vehicle redesigns look closer to how they should then the Pulse Carbine does, same with the UNSC stuff in 4/5 being better then the Commando Rifle (though I like the niche the Commando seems to fill gameplay wise). The Mangler and Ravager look alright, but I think the Mangler's plain cylindrical magazine looks a little too simple, it needs facets cut into it or something like the Mauler magazine. In terms of gameplay, I also hope the Spike Grenade is made to be less a clone of the Plasma grenade and more based around throwing it at walls or ceilings at the right angle/spot for the spikes to then fly out and kill stuff standing in front of, below, above, etc the grenade.
The Flash hider on the Battle Rifle got replaced with a Compensator.
I would like to see the SAW, Plasma Repeater, Plasma Rifle, and the Plasma Castor return.
It genuinely baffles me why people say the graphics for this look bad, cuz they don't. Also great video as always
Hopefully we'll finally be able to attach a grenade-launcher to the bottom of the assault-rifle, like it indicates in Halo canon. Maybe like a more powerful version of the Brute shot from Halo 2.
11:10 It is a pick-up item/equipment with the option in custom games for it to be provided by default.
Is it just me or should Escharum have said “Put a fire in your heart Demon!...” instead of just calling chief “spartan”? I think that alone would have given me goosebumps.
I agree, but we know Escharum doesn't want to call MC Demon, just 'prey' cause he doesn't fear him, unlike the Covenant
Cactus King Very true that makes a lot of sense but Atriox did call Red team “Little Demons” I guess that was more of a mocking gesture if anything but still was great to hear.
@@gunamora7774 Ya i agree, its nice to see Brutes like Atriox calling spartans 'little Demons', gives me chills everytime
The commando has to be the more interesting of the new weapons I've seen. When I saw it I thought it looked almost like a precursor to the dmr/battle rifle. Or even something the insurrection could've used and produced by mixing and matching different weapon parts with the clip being visible even after reloading. Perhaps the infinity aquired a batch of these rifles from abandoned insurrection bases while escaping capture from Cortana as I would imagine most if not all refineries producing weapons, vehicles and materials would be seized by Cortana. I'm probably wrong in this but it definitely looks something more of a relic from before the covenant war or something that was created using different weaponry and damaged tech. Excited to see what other new/returning weapons show up in infinite.
Their Waypoint article seems to confirm that the Grappleshot will be a pick up in PVP, along with other equipment.
Thats actually kind of depressing, I like it for campaign but it's going to have a lot of the same problems as thrusters and spartan charge
I know 343s doing awesome as fuck for infinite, and Im really happy people are starting to get away from "number company bad" but I want it to stick to campaign
@@oreo-postraphe I understand. My main gripe with the Grappleshot is perhaps seeing it as something you spawn with in PVP. Maybe it will work as an item pick-up in PVP. If it doesn't, the fact that it is an item pick-up means they can just remove it from the maps it doesn't work with, or even remove it from PVP entirely.
If you pay close attention to the icons, you can see that the button for grapple is LB, so even though the drop wall covers it on the hud, this is likely just a visual thing, and you can still use the grapple (since it's a different button), the grapple recharge also has an audio cue so you can know when your grapple is ready even if you cant see it (from holding equipment)
Deployable cover was also one-way for some weapons at least
I love that you understand firearms so much.
the fusion coils are completely different to how I remember them but I like their design
I really hope we see the brute shot return. I miss that weapon.
Loving the Ravager and the Mangler. Glad to see the Brute arsenal getting fleshed out more. Really hope the Chopper returns too.
I’m really hoping for the classic UNSC air vehicles to return! In Reach and Halo 3 I always loved being the pilot. I’d love to see the Hornets and Falcons return and hope that they’ll introduce a new vehicle as well. A Sabre/Broadsword vs Space Banshee/Seraph game mode is also in my dreams.
I just read something, apparently, Halo: Infinite will be in the Gampass the day it launches! I'm super excited because i have the Gampess!
Wait really now I'm really excited, Thank You for putting this here.
@@chasecollin118 And heres my proof jic: www.inverse.com/gaming/halo-infinite-release-date-story-trailer-xbox-series-x#:~:text=Halo%20Infinite%20was%20announced%20to,on%20the%20day%20it's%20released. Scroll down to "What consoles will halo infinite be on"
Personally I hope that the SRS99-AM from Reach or a similar UNSC sniper in design is in Infinite. Being able to attach a suppressor onto the barrel would be a dream come true.
I kinda hope they don't make it so you can attach a suppressor to the sniper. It would literally be impossible to suppress
Unless they add the brute shot in halo 5 or give me the armor I want right off the back and my brute shot in there to or I'm not getting it
not gonna talk about how they grappled a fusion core and used it as a grenade? Seems like that'd be a pretty slick addition to multiplayer if you ask me.
Been wanting flashbangs for ages in halo. Cant wait to breach a room. Using forge, all this weapon customisatipn opens so many new doors (including MilSim)
Just a note, the deployable cover in Halo 3 was partially one-way as well. If I recall correctly, it blocked energy weapons from both directions, but you could fire ballistic weapons through it from behind it while it deflected incoming ballistic projectiles.
As for what equipment I hope returns, I kinda hope its the flare, just because of how hilariously useless it was in the Halo 3 campaign. An actually useful version that blinds enemies and not just the player would be cool and lore friendly seeing as Mjolnir is frequently said to have polarizable face plates to block out excessive light.
Seeing Craig is the most satisfying thing in this video
I wish they used the more recent assault rifles looked instead of the halo reach one
I imagine the MA5B might return considering a lot of weapons fill strange roles in the game. I like to think that the MA40 is a tried and true weapon with upgrades but the MA5B is still a 60 round monster with no range.
Good work man as always! Wonder what Misriah Armory have been working on! Command out!
Ever since Halo 1, I've dreamed of 2 things: a unique melee for the needler that "injects" the needles that are loaded and usable jackal shields.
The deployable cover from Halo 3 allows bullets/carbine shots to go through one way, but does not allow plasma to go through. The drop wall for Infinite, at this time, appears to function similarly
Is so hyped for this game great video love the channel
Not sure if someone else already mentioned it, but the Pulse Carbine seems to fire 4-shot bursts, which you can see from the energy drain with each burst, since it goes down 4% every time it fires its burst.
5:25, you can see that the Pulse Carbine also has some kind of rail, a short one, just above your grenade and equipment UI icons.
With that, an attachment system seems even more likely.
The sword looks the best it ever has here the blue feels so much more punchy vibrant and bright I hope all swords keep this look to them in the future of halo
With the hook shot showcasing equippable on body equipment i want to see the jetpack return with better air maneuverability. Also jump packs!
For the rail systems i would love to see shotgun attachments and noob tubes. It'd be fun in social game types
I'm still hoping for the "and all the guns are here!!" Or at least down the line as they continue to add on to Infinite
Just a quick note, i believe the new drop wall is forerunner due to the shiney chrome like metal it seems to be made from and the shield it makes is almost identical to the one seen in the halo wars 2 cutscene where the banished are ejected off the ring
I TRULY am looking forward to Halo:Infinite.
Liked the Assault Rifle and Energy Sword here.
I'm so exited to see the classic Plasma Rifle! That is my second favorite gun in the franchise and I was mad when 4 and 5 straight up replaced it.
Also, in the mega blocks images for that weapon, the weapon looks like it has a pump-type thing where it's held. Maybe you pump the weapon up, enough it blasts out electricity, kind of like a water gun.
Give me back my Chopper. Loved to ram things with it. A giant wheel with a blade and cannons attached, the epitome of Brute design.
Hornet or falcon is the dream Imo i love getting the boys in heli.
If I had to give my take on the sandbox (mainly the weapons), then:
-Brute weapons are good.
-Plasma Pistol and Needler are fine too.
-Pulse Carbine, I have several issues from its design to how it functions, but it's passable, I guess. Starting from the design, the muzzle and the heating system are much more human in design compared to the more alien-like Plasma Rifle/Repeater that didn't have a barrel-like muzzle and the heating system was indicated by the shapes on the side on the gun, whereas with the Pulse Carbine has a simple meter of sorts like the Storm Rifle (a gun which I also dislike). How it functions, however, is still up in the air. If it's headshot capable, then I can see it being that BR equivalent to the Carbine, but it's here to replace either the Carbine or the Plasma Rifle, then I'm not a big fan. This said, while I was never fooled by the Storm Rifle's silhouette, I can see how someone would mistake it for the Carbine.
-Assault Rifle is the only halo looking weapon from the UNSC side, the pistol is there and there, maybe extend the handle covering the trigger and give it lighter or even darker colors instead of this brown/gray look, the Commando is just some Destiny weapon in my eyes, but then again someone has commented that it might be some non-UNSC weapon, perhaps that also goes for the Sidekick and the Bulldog - this thing better not replace that pump action shotty.
Now, if I were to throw my little wish list here, then I'd like to see the Plasma Repeater make a return but buff it to what the SAW is compared to the Assault Rifle and give it to some high rank Sangheili (Plasma Rifle too, but with increased accuracy). Needler Rifle would be cool to see too, but have it be the accurate, slower shooting and more damaging carbine. Focus Rifle made into an anti-vehicle weapon while the Beam Rifle would mostly remain the same, but 2 shots to the body to kill an unshielded foe, so more emphasis on hitting those headshots. Plasma Launcher with more ammunition. The SAW would be a pleasant surprise.
The deployable cover from halo 3 was also 1 way but for only non plasma weapons. so the drop wall is only different in how well you can see through it and how big it is
It's misery to have the say misery Armory every 5 seconds and a Halo gun video
I swear that the deployable shield from Halo 3 was also one way. There have been several times I've hidden behind one and was able to shoot enemies through it, while they were unable to shoot me.
hey Halo cannon, real quick, I was watching some old stuff, and I came upon the Gears of War 5 Demo. It looked...terrible compared to the release, and the demo had less time to cook before release than Halo Infinite did, so I'm hoping this brings some relief to any concerns over graphics like with hairless brutes and phantoms and such.
I really hope the Beam Rifle is back, because I never got on with the Focus Rifle
i was thinking, we know the focus rifle is back, but what if it’s like the binary in h5? could be dope
1:59 Well... unless you count the sniper rifles... but certainly in terms of ARs, BRs or DMRs I think your right.
As for Weapons and vehicles I want to see return... M7S SMG from ODST, and the Falcon from Reach. In an open world game with a co-op campaign... come on, the falcon would be perfect!
I think the Mk50 designation is suppose to be pronounced as “Mark 50”. Not really a complaint, just thought I’d point it out before a lot of gun nuts go crazy in the comments. Also wonder what caliber the pistol uses compared to the M6 Magnum variants from previous games.
Judging by the size of the bullets in the mag i would say 12.7/ .50 like the M6 series.
I'm loving everything so far.
Also the Pilot mentions Condors in the gameplay demo, so I’m pretty sure they will make an appearance too.
How to make a great halo trailer
Step 1: make a battleground scenery
Step 2: make sure the characters featured barley talk or not talk at all
Step 3: have some slow sad/calm or halo ost music
E.g. remember reach, halo 3 believe , halo 3 “not yet”, halo wars 2 “I know you”
I just want to say that the so called grapple shot reminds me a lot of the grappler in titan fall 2
Remember how, in H3 and H3:ODST, the player held four different grenade types: Frag, Plasma, Spike, and Fire Bomb/Incendiary? (Side note: On ‘Heroic’ difficulty, Hunters/Mgalekgolo seem to tank (ignore being hit by) fire grenades, in Halo 3.)
I hope the Raigun and Sticky Detonator return, alongside the Grenade Launcher! I want all equipment from Halo 3 to return!
Equipment, in my biased opinion, were more fun.
The ‘drop wall’ seems like a combo of H3’s ‘deployable cover’ (in function) and ‘bubble shield’ (in design).
In Halo Headhunters they use the similar grenade like that it would disable plasma weapons an Covenant Shields making them completely vulnerable.
At this point I don't think it'll ever happen again, but I want the needle rifle back so bad. That gun was so dope 🙌
I see you are a man of culture. I miss the needle rifle too. Most satisfying covy weapon other than the plasma rifle and sword.
I think the new Human weapons are actually Insurrectionist weapons. I'd imagine that's why the M50 Sidekick's manufacturer logo doesn't look familiar. Maybe we'll meet up with Insurrectionists during this campaign, either as allies or enemies?
The battle rifle was confirmed returning to halo infinite since February at the wicked cool toy show 2020. It is seen being holded by the White Gen 3 Mark 7 figure. You can see on the figure that the barrel looks the exactly the same at one in the trailer. You can also see the scope is bigger on the figure like the trailer. The rails look the same as well.
You forgot about "the weapon" that was used to hack the console at the AA tower, it's in the mission description/objective, I'm guessing it's the weapon containment device that has SPDR in it.
