SMG

[Furi0usGeorgeX]

So is the SMG in Halo 4 confirmed, denied, or unknown?

[Victory Element]

unknown for now. There is already another topic like this so this may be locked

[DoctorB77]

It has not. I dont see it happening since there is no duel wielding

[sneakylilchief]

lol i hope that just for fun, 343 brings dual wield back in halo 5 and 6 just like bungie brought in 2 and 3.

[Mr Biggles]

Its unknown,

 

It will come with the set of weapons confirmed soon.

[SykoWolf]

I kinda want it back, but with the AR and BR and DMR around, it wouldnt stand a chance in MP. It would only be useful in Campaign

[DoctorB77]

It seems that we keep getting more and more power weapons but we never add on to normal weapons.

[WonderWombat]

They have a new gun, the assault carbine, which will essentially take its role.

Stop fighting you two brothers XD

 

On topic, I don't want the SMG returning for this game only, happy to see it later, but I just don't this time.

if they brought the dual wielding back again, the weapons that you can dual wield with will be useless if you dont have 2 of them, thats maybe one of the reasons why they removed that option in reach. Though in my opinion this problem could maybe be fixed if the accuracy would be very much reduced if you used dual wielding.

I liked the SMG, but in halo 2 it was a replacement for the AR, so i dont think it will be back...And also as sykowolf said, it would be kinda useless when there are so many other weapons which would dominate the SMG, so it would be liike a spiker or plasma rifle in reach, which is hard to get kills with...

[Giofosho]

They should have kept dual wielding because the small weapons like the smg, pistol, plasma pistol, plasma rifle, needler, spiker, and mauler were all weak but stood a good chance when dual wielding with one another.

from what we know, the name assualt carbine was just a placeholder name for the storm rifle. if not, then you may be correct

Well I have no idea. If it is the storm rifle, then I have been misinformed.

 

I do believe that they should add some type of SMG like weapon in the game whether it is some UNSC assault carbine or the old SMG.

The Assault Carbine?! Meaning... MA5K?! As in Battle Rifle from Halo 3 without a scope and 6 bullets taken away and made more HDish?!

If that is not the case i can pretty much guess that it is one of the unnamed forerunner weapons.

[Mr. Snazz]

SMG was not at all a dual-wield only weapon. SMG spray+Beat Down=Win

[lemon cup]

^ I agree, the SMG functioned well in Halo 3 as a single-wield weapon. When available, I always traded it with my AR in BR-start games.

[Tallgeese]

Well in the new Halo 4 weapons video out on Waypoint and in several threads here, it would appear that the SMG is not returning seeing as it is not featured in the UNSC weapon list

[Giofosho]

The SMG is not returning but the new SAW seems as it would be the same!

[Tallgeese]

No the new 'SAW' appears to be a light machine gun comparison and looks like the MG36 lmg

[Giofosho]

.... i was meaning it shoots fast and is a suppressing weapon man...

no no no no no

[Tallgeese]

Ahh gotcha...in that regards than yes lol
