Do you hate the Br as a weapon or just the way people use it?

Many people make the argument that the Battle Rifle is the weapon that has the most glitches but this is untrue. Bxr/BxB can be done with any weapon the only glitch that is Br specific is the Double-Shot and many other weapons have glitches of their own, take the Carbine for example you can shoot all the ammo with out needing to reload or how the Sniper takes advantage of auto aim which leads to Sweep Sniping or Quick-Scoping.

So The Question Once Again Is Do You Hate The Br Or Do You Hate MLG And Weapon Glitches?

no, i don't hate it. its over-powered as hell, but i don't hate it.

i do hate the people that think because they can mash button combos they are suddenly "l337". This is Mortal Kombat, its Halo, stop the button combos.

In games, there is no race, age, color, height, weight, or social status, just your skill, and your skill alone.

Life is like a breeze, the harder it gets, the colder you feel.

Well any GOOD halo 2 player wouldn't hate it, or weapon glitches. I realise they are considered cheating but oh well, I don't like people who whine about my host then I beat them 25-0 on theirs. (Then their excuse was that I quad shotted like hell)

Theres nothing wrong with the BR its the main weapon of H2. Although complaining abotu it may make you feel better its going to be in the game tommorow so its something you have to get sued to. Set up a couple custom games and practice your BR work, aim for the head and pump the trigger in seperated succesions of bursts rather than pumping rapidly like you would a carbine. Other than that pick up a carbine and beat out a BR [Carbing vs. BR = Carbine 100% of the time]..

Many people are good with the BR w/o the all the glitches...unfortunatly, the sad truth to it is, if you are truly good, you hit almost a wall in the ranking system made up primarily of button glitchers, and a small minority of non button glitchers. I too have resorted to button glitches, although I try not to do it when the other team doesn't use them. I'll admit, it's cheating and VERY cheap, but if you can't beat them, join 'em. Fight fire with fire, unfortunatly...And to all those that I have used button glitches against...(except dbl shot, which is too hard for me.) I'm sorry, but I do try to restrain myself when the other team does not use them, but well reflexes suck.

Well they are mgl n00bs that don't know how to play with skill if all they can use is the BR and Sniper, I would pwn them if it were map default smg starts.

No i do not hate the BR but i do not like it as much becuase it is weaker in the Halo 3 Beta. BXR and BXB and Double shot all take skill. So its just like superbouncing its just that the BR is a weopon not a bounce.

Sorry but thats where you're wrong. The guys who play MLG settings know how to use mostly every weapon thats what make them so good. They aren't good just because they use button glitches thats just your excuse for losing. I don't understand why you guys think the BR takes no skill. Samething with double shooting, you try pulling off a double shot in the heat of battle if you think it takes no skill. SMGs are just pray and spray.

thats what i have been trying to say to these guys you need to have skill to pull of a double shot you need to have extra skill to double shot of a whole round of ammo I have only done a 8 shot not a 12 yet. BUT KEEP PRACTICING!
