Like the pistol, the assault rifle performs poorly against shields. Unlike the pistol, the assault rifle is inaccurate, preventing it from being effective against both [[Jackals]] and [[Elites]]. In addition, the assault rifle's high rate of fire necessitates frequent reloading. The combination of inaccuracy and lack of a scope lead to difficulties in accurately hitting targets at long range. Finally, the assault rifle is still rather inaccurate when in bursts.
The assault rifle performs poorly against shields and, in comparison with the [[pistol]], is largely inaccurate. In addition, the assault rifle's high rate of fire necessitates frequent reloading. Later in the game, it is almost completely overshadowed by the [[shotgun]]; though in multiplayer this is less apparent, as the amount of ammo available for the shotgun is much less than for the AR.
