i think your a nub because if you eliminate the BR you will eliminate pros because pros rely on BRs and snipers. also i think they should remove the nub combo i mean the only reason it was put inside the game is because its an easy kill.

The Battle Riffle aka BR is the cheapest weapon in Halo 2 and should be taken out of matchmaking. It is the most glitchiest weapon ever, making it the cheapest. We all know the BR takes the fun out of Halo 2 Online, so let's get the SMG back to starting weapon and take out the BR completely.

Lol

Wait, your being serious? Let me laugh harder.

Remember the good ol' days with SMG start, best med. range weapon ever. LET'S DO IT FOR THE SMG!
Yes, It was great spawning and not being able to combat any other weapon, with the exception of the pistol. The only thing I like about the SMG spawn is that when I spawn and there is a sniper, I can spray a few shots at him, knock him out of scope and repeat untill I gat away. Of corse, if I had a BR the sniper whould have to have some skill or I would be able to destroy him.

Pfft what? I'm sure you'd never drop a BR you have for a carbine.

Actually a dual wield SMG is highly effective out to medium range. But, a single SMG is highly affective only when assassinating someone from behind. The SMG is a good dual wielder in combination with a shield dropper.

The BR is the way to spawn in. Besides, it would only make sense that you would send a soldier into combat with a Rifle, not a CQB weapon.

The Carbine isn't a good weapon unless you're host or it's a LAN game. The BR is better since with the 3 shot burst it makes up for the latency on xbox live by atleast having 1 of your bullets hit your opponent.

i love the br, it's for those who can aim. i do agree that there are cheap glitches, i don't like them either. don't worry, i keep playing legit. but the smg comment, how could you turn your back on the original assault rifle. Burn the witch! and to make my self more clear, not that cheap imitation assault rifle in halo 3. i mean the daddy gun, the AR in halo 3 is too underpowered. it's gonna be murdered next to it's friend, the halo 1 pistol.

R.I.P.
Guns that used to work.

RRX works for carbine, battle rifle
BXR works for anything just doesnt killing in one hit.
BXB works for anything
Why not take everything but an uncharged energy sword on the map and first person to get it will win.

I hate BRs.............WHEN I DON'T HAVE ONE! Once the other team has them your toast, but I don't really want them totally out haha. I just gotta find some way to kill them and take it lol s*** happens.

Circumstances do not make the man, they merely reveal himself to himself.

i think that the SMG is just a bit nooby i mean you just have to do 2 things.
1. get close to an enemy
2. pull the trigger

Theres no freakin aiming to it! The person in front of you is basically dead because they cant escape the spray of bullets, unless they kill you first. The BR requires a bit of strategy, if the enemy is a medium to far distance away you have to actually keep the marker on the enemy! It is an awesome weapon and i respect its power. Even when i first started halo2 i thought: "A weapon that only fires three shots at once? This is useless!" But now i love the BR and i hate it when i am given any other starting weapon.

Honestly, as much as I love halo and the BR, it is the only weapon besides the sniper that I ever see get picked up anymore, and if you pick up another weapon that was intended to be used, your considered bad. So I think the BR has taken a lot of fun out of the game we all knew back in '04 and '05
