Thanks =)
I realise that, I think GoT spoilers shouldn't be in here either, but they happen so often that I don't see that changing. Prometheus is different.
Also, catching up is different than it not being out yet.
Damn you people!
I tend to write it as splaser. Or at least i used to write it as splaser. Can't remember the last time i talked about the splaser as splaser, though. I belive it called the splaser Spartan Laser last time.
But splaser is a okay name.

i wrote splaser 9 times total

AR is a perfect spawn weapon for less skilled players.
Dual wielding is a neat features and thou it was cut due to difficulties balancing it with the sandbox and loadouts its one of my most requested returns.
Halo 4 needs the SMG back, i want the Demo to start with chief grabbing a smg and giving some covies hell.

couldn't agree more. also the dmr/br should have enough bullets for 3 kills before reloading. laser is awesome and we need a construct remake.
You mean the ODST SMG, of course. With 60 round magazine. Dual wielded the M6C/SOCOM.
I hope the 3 kill per clip thing hasn't changed for either. We'll see.

People that hate the AR are snobs. Weapon is fun to use.
In Halo CE, 3 and ODST, yes. In Reach, no.

Honestly? No.
in a world were the sandbox could have every gun from halo's past in it sure but if its a limited sandbox id much rather it be a sidearm spawn weapon.
I hope Halo 4 has no weapons and you only kill people by bashing them with the Jackal Shield.
People who use ARs have small penises. It is known.

Explains alot
ODST SMG is a completely different story.
Come on, what i described would be awesome and cool.
We need ODST 2, gotta get to use that SMG and pistol again.

Yeah you can.
Bolded: Yep. The only other purpose it serves is to limit the range of the game and put it into essentially close range or bust.
I'm not saying to remove it. That would be, unfortunately, disastrous for the game. Just stating that I think it serves no other purpose than making it easier for less skilled players.
As for dual wielding HELLL NO. Only if you can develop some useful dual wieldable weapons that aren't AR clones (SMG). The whole point for its axing was to simplify the sandbox. No one picked up a lone plasma rifle. No one picks up a lone spiker/smg. Maybe if they were somehow PACKAGED together ALWAYS.
Fun is subjective. I find the gun to be an absolute chore and boring to use.
I can however, see how some people think unloading and spraying a player full a bullets is more fun than trying to hit them precisely.
Because the Red Sox aren't on.
What was so wildly different of 3 and Reach's AR? CE's was at its best, where it was a decent cleanup weapon.

halo 2 had the best AR

No, it's fun to spray stuff with bullets.
3's is satisfying to use, Reach's not. In Halo 3, 6 bullets and a melee and the opponent is dead (and hopefully neither am i, proper movement/attack direction helps). In Reach, well, i usually switch to magnum or go look for another weapon instead of bothering to use that piece of crap called AR.
Oh and i didn't use Halo CE AR as a cleanup weapon, i used it as an Anti-Elite weapon, on Legendary... Headshot grunts and jackals and then charge toward an Elite while firing full auto on it, IIRC full magazine is enough to drop or at least severely weaken Elite Major's shields, finish with melee.

I feel like such a nerd when I'm telling my friends I can't hang out because of E3. But man... HALO 4! Can't pass that up!
You made the right call.
My wild guess is that is the first time we land on Requiem. Lava seems to be there, because we already saw it in the first look video.
Also this looks connected:
Invite them to watch with you! Spread the excitement.

Yeah the AR hasn't been a fun weapon since Halo CE. It was useless in 3 without melee and in Reach it's just boring to use. Precision weapons all day every day.

I wouldn't say that. There's definitely something satisfying about pulling your AR out in close-range combat when your opponent least expects it and dies from it (sans melee of course). That's been my experience with Team Slayer in Halo 3 for the past half year.

Kinda looks like lava to me, but it may be the wreckage that the FUD causes when it lands on Requiem.

Speak up friend.
I agree with this ugly avatar.
That does feel great. Also, rushing another AR rusher... but dodging him and gunning him down instead of melee.
