*The M45 TS is more powerful than the [[M90 Close Assault Weapon System]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' since [[Bungie Studios|Bungie]] has stated in a ''Game Informer'' interview. The rounds will now be packed closer when fired and the range has been improved as well, although this will make it harder to hit more than one enemy at close range. The ammo capacity from the ''Halo 3'' version has been kept. <ref>[[Halo: Reach Multiplayer Trailer|''Halo: Reach'' Multiplayer Beta]]</ref>
