Cut Halo 5: Guardians weapons: Difference between revisions

{{Status|RealWorld}}

The glass cutter was likely intended to be a [[Weapon types#Turret|turret weapon]] based around the concept of a tool developed for cutting through the [[Lechatelierite|glass]] on [[Meridian]]. The weapon was concepted by [[:Category:Images by David Bolton|David Bolton]].{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.artstation.com/artwork/human-glass-cutter|Site=ArtStation|Page=Halo 5: Guardians concept art|D=09|M=6|Y=2016}}

Files within ''Halo 5: Guardians'' show that 343 Industries was planning on releasing some [[:Category:Jiralhanae weapons|Brute weapons]] into the ''Halo 5'' sandbox - possibly to coincide with the release of ''[[Halo Wars 2]]''. These weapons coincide with a new [[#Brute scopes|scope variant]] planned for inclusion for use on loadout weapons.{{Ref/YouTube|Id=Brute|eFD_vgzrFSk|Gamecheat13|Halo 5 REQ Leaks - Brute Prototype Weapons}} These weapons may have also served as prototypes for the Brute sandbox later featured in ''Halo Infinite''.

The brute sniper rifle was going to be a weapon in ''Halo 5: Guardians'' that would have served the role of a precision sniper rifle. The weapon holds four rounds in its magazine, with an additional 12 rounds storage for a total capacity of 16 rounds. The [[Subanese crystal]] needle fired from the sniper is the same model fired by the [[Needler]], albeit recoloured and larger - intended as a placeholder. These rounds impale themselves in players and scenery upon impact and explode a few seconds after hitting their target, though the explosion is fairly small and likely only to hit the enemy if they stand atop the spike or are impaled. It takes one body shot with the explosion effect to drop a Spartan's  [[energy shielding]] and another body shot to kill, though headshots cause an instalkill. The Brute sniper rifle has a 3.5 second reload speed.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}

The Brute magnetic missile was to serve as Brute-themed rocket launcher equivalent. The weapon holds only one round in its magazine, with a reserve of 5 rounds. The rocket fired from the weapon is a shot that splits into five smaller rounds mid-flight, which then proceed to arc downward explode after a few seconds after hitting the ground. The explosive effect of the projectiles cause an [[Electromagnetic pulse|EMP]] which can completely disable vehicles, alongside dealing heavy damage.{{Ref/Reuse|GCREQs}}
