Thank you very much for being some of the very few who actually agree. I've raised this arguement against a very particular person online indeed. He called me an idiot after I countered all of his reasonings and said he was just going to stop talking to me, which translates to: I conceive defeat, but because I have MLG in my name, I'm going to say your wrong and deny your completely logical arguement altogether. Some people are just ONLY good with the BR and that's why once you catch them without one, winning's easy. But alas, BR's are all over every map and gametypes spawn you in with them. We could lower the power or just lower the range, but then that would cause a riot amongst all Halo players and a sin to MLG. (Not that I care...)
One thing is I'm just tired of random people calling themselves "pros" by abusing the BR and the health system. It is very easily abused and it's been done on Sandbox to the point where I was just going insane. The Average Staff Captains may hide a lot, but at least they will face you every now and then instead hiding on some kind of high point with a BR and running back so you can't shoot them. I just think that ever since Halo 2, the BR has changed the gameplay to ridiculous proportions to where sometimes it all comes down to whomever gets the first headshot or how many teammates can shoot the same guy at once.You don't play many First-Person Shooters, do you? People use the BR because it is a mid-ranged, headshot capable weapon. Not because of MLG, or it's easy, or any of this other BS that some of these Bungie.net kids come up with.
Excluding Power Weapons, the only mid-ranged weapons are BR, Carbine, M6G Magnum, and Needler. And, I would say that the BR and Carbine are the easiest and most effective out of them. Then you see that the Carbine is limited on maps, which leave's us to more BR use.
Every single weapon in COD4, except for maybe Shotguns, have longer range than the Halo 3 BR (just FYI). If you don't like headshots and shooting at range, then can I recommend maybe Smash Brothers? That game is fun, and you get all the randomness you want with items. No Assault Rifles in that game, either, since you seem to not like Assault Rifles (which, BTW, is what the BR is).
I am curious, though, if Moodapiller refuses to use Vehicles, Rockets, Snipers, Lasors all on principle, since all those are completely superior to the BR in every way. I guess you just use Melee weapons and occasionally the M6G or Carbine. (BTW, I use mostly the M6G because I'm trying to win and it gives me enjoyment; it's not only for fun like you think it is. The Magnum is quite effective. It is pretty much a BR with a little bit less range and no burst function.)
And, can we move pass this bias toward MLG? A good rule of thumb is if you have never played Halo:CE, then keep your mouth shut about it. You don't want to sound ignorant, based on limited experience of competitive gaming, now do you? Also, MLG isn't only Halo, BTW.
u obviously haven't played many FPS. rockets are superior to BR? are u kidding me? lets try it out, u get a rocket and i get a BR valhalla, lets see who wins, if u beat me, ill commend u as the best player i know and get as many people as i can to convice bungi to give u recon. lazer? once again, same senario lets see who wins on valhalla. and vehichles? that depends a Br is definatly greater than a warthog, because a warthog cant shoot. a mongoose? thats a joke, a beatdown beats a mongoos.
i think everyone on halo can agree we play halo because u can beat someone who has a edge over you, in halo u can get shot first and still come out victor if your better, unlike COD where by first see first win. its a simple game of hide n seek. halo gives everyone the opportunity to thrive it all depends on how you play it, othr FPS make it so if u finde osmeone first u automaticy win (unless your handiecaped in some way,) there are only a few games like halo (gears of war, turok etc.) and just like halo they have their own exploits but halo has the least. halo only has two major exploits, the Br and the beat down systems, but we cna all agree u can never have a perfect baetdowns system so lets just let sleeping dogs lye.
here are stats to prove your logic is broken beyond repair.
laser: 5 shots. precharge shots, overheat. can only be paried by cover.
rockets: 2 shot clip, 2 spare clips. ca be paried by a jump. or walking away. reload
BR 36 round clip. 12 rounds kill, 3 kills per clip, 2 spare clips. 9 kills per BR. reload can only be paried by cover. the BR is obviously supirior to bot of those.
i played CE like no tommorow i grew up with that game, but in that game every weapon was a power weapon so they were all balnced, a PP could kill a sniper. and PR could kill a rocket at close range, and a shotgun could out range an AR. all the weapons in that game were balanced because all of them were effective in almost every way. (i beat the campaing on legendary by my self usnig only a PP without charging it.) the only thing wrong with that game was the vehichles. and therw wouldent be a bias against MLg if they werent so ignorant them selves "oh im so pro because i can shoot someone across the map with a weapon that give me head shots reguardless of where i actual have my crosair."
and u wana argue is MLG isnt only halo? mlg has a PSU branch, but has anyone heard of it? no, so it dont matter, look at is logicly
no one knows you have a brother, u may as well be an only child in the eyes of the world.
and FYI the BR mid range? u must have 1 eye or are the lagiest player on Xbox live, because everyone including I can snipe with the BR, i know ive never been killd by a sniper at cross lever range when i have a
BR, and if u cant pull that off, thats a personal problem cuz the BR is long ranged.
want proof? it has a fricken scope, 'nuff said.
