Well the Beta Hopper pistol is just the one from Reach with no bloom, right? The shield bleedthrough makes it a tad more powerful too.

From what I can tell, the one in the Classic playlist will be as close to the Halo 1 pistol as possible and will still have bloom (the gameplay videos show it that way anyway). That means it's a three shot kill, but you can't go spamming it like you do in the Zero Bloom playlist. Oh, and I think they've also made it automatic and shoot slower like in Halo 1, but I'm not 100% sure of that.
