everyone has the same advantage with it, why remove it. i say, fight fire with fire.. if we are gonna remove the br ... then remove the plasma pistol with it. noob combo is just as bad. but in my opinion, don't remove anything.

Uhhhh...If you played the H3 beta, the BR DID change. There was no aim assist or auto aim or whatever the hell you wanna call it, it takes much more skill now.

I AGREE do you have any idea how easy it is to BxR. not that many people can even doubleshot in a game successfully anyways.

Exploitations of a glitch is cheating. Any thread about the BR will turn into this debate. I have come to call the BR the "The Grand Noob Stick" b/c after playing Halo 3 Beta, Halo 2's BR is so easy to use. Its aim is easy b/c of auto assist and auto aim. I would not like for Halo 2 to have the BR removed b/c let's face it, this question was place back when the PP had its homing ability pre-patch 1.1. I would like to see button glitches removed, but that isn't gonna happen.

Its really too late, if bungie could have changed it they would have,and that is why they did for H3. fact remains the br you have in mm is the same in campaign and therefore is built into the game,they only thing bungie has control to change is the damage dealt in MM, otherwise they'd probably have to mail us all brand new games

One of the best, huh? Is that right??? Oh well... too bad the Covenant carbine OWNS it easily at mid to long range (and even at close range if your aim is true). In fact, the Covenant carbine should be the default starting weapon for anyone who considers themselves a TRUE Halo pro!!!!!!! ;-P

Yeah the carbine is a real piece of work, except even if you shoot them 3,4 even 5 times in the face it doesn't matter if the person wielding the BR isn't 5 years old. At this stage and at any stage in H2's history EVERYONE needs to stop whining about weapon superiority. It doesn't matter if you're the best pistol shooter in the game if someone else kicks the hell out of you every time with a BR, LEARN TO USE IT. i have a hard time with bxr consistently, even in the heat of the moment i get even less of my shots pulled off, doesn't make me explode and want the thing taken away. o.O Get real and with the program, learn to double shot, learn the jumps and how to place the grenade to make it fit just right with your first pull. Most of us worked at them to even be able to do it once, much less kill someone with it... maybe you should too.

Redo it. Glitches need to be out, and the autoaim should be reduced to match that of the carbine at the very least.

This thread had NOTHING to do with glitches until you brought them up. Good job dumbass.

lol wut? If the BR was removed, there would BE no more 'noob combo', as the combo is PP+BR. Anyone who says PP+Human Dual is a 'noob combo' needs to re-evaluate their statement- the SMG is nowhere comparable to the BR in terms of power, range, or effectiveness.

You alright there man sounds like you need a cough drop. THe battle rifle isn't a bad weapon and it isn't hard to use, all you have to really concentrate on is throwing grenades first then following up with the BR. Its a quick way to a double or triple kill sometimes.

True but they could use the carbine instead of the BR

Hey, dead eye. Whats the third option on the poll? BXR? Double shot? Nope, those two have nothing to do with glitching at all.

You never reasoned it, so unfortunately, your opinion doesn't matter.

Bungie isn't going to take it out, Just wait for Halo 3.

It's a bit of a broken weapon but it also provides the most balance, and is perfect for competitive play.

So, no, it should stay. Anyway, they retooled it for Halo 3. It's less dominant, but still deadly in the right hands.

  • 06.14.2007 2:35 PM PDT

The BR in Halo 2 dominates the game, its stupid and needs to be adjusted. Luckily in Halo 3 that seems to be fixed, with the removal of auto aim, its no longer a "I shot you first so I'll probably kill you" kind of deal.

yea i agree with taking out the aim assist or at least downsizeing it a bit and to take off the homing plasma pistol shot, in other words please take out the noob combo!!
