im tired of players saying BR takes skill and i dont like the fact that bungie promoted MLG so much. i know that smg is dual wieldable but it actauly takes skill the way i use it. i like using grenades with walls, hils, water, bumps ect... also a good way to screw over a noob with BR is crouch repeatidly in the air while shooting them with smg+pistol after u dropped the pistol to grenade them ^^ br is for noobs

EDIT:

ps use the carbine if u want a ranged wep it takes alot more skill then dragging ur reticle over their head within 2 sec after u shot

No, its a game of teamwork in objective games. FFA is skill. TS is both.

First, tombstone and desolation aren't MLG maps. Second, if ir was SMG spawn on tombstone whoever gets the sniper wins. Third, theres motion sensor in team slayer BR, there is no motion sensor in MLG team games. Fourth, why does a BR start immediately make it related to MLG? It isn't, bungie made the games and if they want a BR start on a big map, they can make it that way.

How does it aim for you? You have to aim still, auto aim only helps a little.

If it aimed for me that would mean if the person moved right my reticule would continue to follow them.

No, Latineagle is right. That's a quad shot.

Bungie doesn't promote MLG, but they do recognize it. Hence the arrival of Team Hardcore, and some "MLG inspired" maps for Halo 3.

What's wrong with MLG? People like to play balanced, competitive playstyles. MLG is a growing community and now a multi million dollar industry. It's being recognized across the country, and there may even be competition among popular networks about who's going to host it on TV.

MLG is not about being "uber" with the Battle Rifle. If the SMG was an adequate starting weapon, MLG would use it, but the SMG is not an adequate spawn weapon. Thus the Battle Rifle (the best weapon for Halo 2's spawn) is used in place.

MLG is not about glitches either. It's about Team work. Glitches aren't gonna do jack against 3 people all shooting you, so if anyone thinks MLG is about glitches they're mistaken. Communication, tactics, and team shooting are much more important than a quad shot here and there.

If you don't like MLG, that's completely fine. But please don't attempt to undermine them when you know nothing about them, or what they're really about. There's a common misconception among people that MLG is about cheating and smack talking and absurd claims that they'd "suck" without the ability to bxr (all of which are horribly ignorant and wrong.)

No offense but have you even used a Battle Rifle?

Take it from someone who has used on quite a bit, the BR doesn't aim for you at all. You still have to aim it, it just keeps the aimer steady on a target. If what you're saying was true, all BR's "lock on" to their targets.

Which is wrong. Very very wrong.

I think that MLG is the worst thing that could have ever happened to Halo 2.

at least with the carbine every shot counts unlike the BR with the BR all u gotta do is drag it near their head. i see so many noobs that just stole kills from people and actauly get on top of the game doing that.

the carbine takes alot more skill than the BR and so does the smg if u use it right

I'll agree with you that the Carbine takes more skill (but it's more host dominant) but the SMG doesn't. There's no precision with it, just accuracy. With the BR there's both.

Haha, np, we were wrecking kids in HC and DT too.


Ninja CTF is obviously the least -blam!- gametype ever....
