Add me for some MLG customs or Team Hardcore =D

You took the " Three Golden things of halo weapons, grenades and melee" straight from the Halo 3 Vidoc exactly what they guy was saying, except that he was talking about the ASSAULT RIFLE.

He was comparing AR to BR, they are remotely similar.

Ha. In almost every situation the Battle Rifle will own the SMG at close range.

True, 1 SMG v. 1 BR = BR FTW if the players are equal

There was a man from Allentown who fed his son to death.
He calmly watched him gorge himself until his final breath.
And there he stood, surprised and shocked above his tiny frame.
He said: "I bear no blame for this. I only share his name!"

what are you gonna do in halo 3? you'll have no skill. you will try to BxR and get screwed. The shotgun takes more skill then pressing 2 buttons and pulling the right trigger.


I'll tell you what i'm gonna do in halo 3.

First i will be in a position where me and my team can cover eachother, and the map.

then when i see you i will communicate to my team "noob with a shotgun by BR cave"(<<<for the sake of argumen)

then me and my team will each put two shots into your head, and you will die before you even get close enough to shotgun me.

after that we will procede to destroy your pathetic team and rank up.
I love how you just assume you're better than the other team.

Boiler Up!!
Go WINGS!!

I just want to say that I think that the mix bungie has with some maps being smg start and some being br start is the best. On large maps like coag you need to have the br or else its just a slow match with sniper dominance. On smaller maps though I think smg spawn is better. I believe that with smg start on small maps it takes more skill that if you just start with a br. Also I'd like to point out that with objective games the smg spawn is a lot better most times because with brs the defending team has it easier. This is because they can sit farther away from their objective and cover a lot larger area. Just a point I thought I would bring up

I would say it depends on the situation. If you are both in the middle of an open space the br should be able to win. If you are in a closer range area with walls and such the smg has a greater chance of winning. You have to keep in mind that you shouldn't really be using either weapon by itself but with grenades which adds a whole other layer to the strategy.

If everyone has a smg why does that mean you can't work as a team? Teamwork will beat pretty much anything in this game. A well practiced team doesn't need a certian weapon to use to win.

Ignorance at its finest.

I do wonder though, how pulling the trigger once to shoot a shotgun shell requires more skill then pressing three buttons in a sequence to achieve an instant kill, but only if your shot hits the head....

SMG's have their place in Halo 2. Having a combo of BR starts and SMG starts makes for more gametypes. While I'd rather play BR games (pref MLG), SMG games do break up the monotony that is BR starts (MLG in particular).
