The BR is one the best weapons if you know how too use it. I mean like what could be added on that it would make it look better. I'll tell you what "nothing" can be added on too the BR that could make any better than it is right now.

Br are is Perfect. Thank you Bungie

The path of the righteous Master Chief is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.

You like apples?

BR rules. Nothing to add or take away. Touch the BR in HALO 3 I stop playing HALO 3.

How about those apples?

Wasup Achronis, played you a few times in big team. Remember the Frowns?

Suggestion? If your in a REGISTERED BUNGIE CLAN your clan abbrieviation could be on your left or right chestplate. Everything cant be perosnalized, just more work for no revenue for bungie BUT you could start by seeing if this would increase number of clans, memberships in a clan which would possibly get more people to play (more buying halo 3) and to be part of their friends clan. Its the prestige. Clans would appreciate it, we take H3 alittle more serious. Specifically those three below. Look at all the xp they have. I think all have earned it too because they dont boost. What you see is what you get. I can speak for mine and vouch for those but not for other clans. Bungie employees get fire and bungie.net icon. Clans get buttkuss lol If you do add it I wouldnt mine a small credit in very small writing in the far corner with poor lighting for the idea...maybe =(

Examples:

System Of A Frown (SOAF or FROWNIE)
Master Theory ( MT)
Regulators (REG)

On our team we have motivational speakers, fathers of four, engineers, entreprenuers, and straight up kids . We are a diverse group and we support Bungie and Halo 3, always.

Power To The Frown...

I would very much like to see a BR with single shot and fully automatic switch besides from the three round burst fire. -the recoil would of course be something to be considered.

  • 05.31.2009 12:27 PM PDT

the BR is just fine as it is its better than the halo 2 BR so cheap

Hmm, Well I've seen a lot of arguments about the "Battle Rifle". People say it's over powered. The case maybe the player is only aiming for the head of his opponent thus when it makes the shot that makes the shield go down the last bullet that is shot is the shot that goes to the head. Which makes it a weapon good for long range a standard range fights.

cheat b4 u lose
terror from the sky
join terror squad or die with the rest.

there's alway had been a glitch when u aim for the enemy's visor that u deal alot of damage to them.My thoughts 4 the BR:I wish it was a little bit smaller and was more accurate+they could have given it a larger ammo cartridges.

Uniform stagnant filth, subculture with no remorse or guilt. Feeding the frenzy of fears, it feeds on it's young for years...

So, if you don't like the BR there is one real simple solution.......................Don't Use It




yeah, that's all fine and dandy, but there are TONS of BR slayer games. and they never get vetoed. EVER.

the only gun everyone should start with is the assault rifle or ar/magnum. the only specialy "gun-only" gametypes there should be are all swords, rockets, hammers, snipers, etc. an all br gametype has no place in regular matchmaking.

anyone ever wonder why halo 2 started to die? they added all br's to every gametype.

  • 05.31.2009 6:49 PM PDT

I feel the same way

The BR is what I use the most

If you are good with it, it's amazing

If you aren't, DON'T USE IT

  • 05.31.2009 8:03 PM PDT

The only problem with this posting is simple, YOU START WITH AN AR AS WELL

Like Pk 4 Skillz1 and I have said, if you don't like it, don't use it

One more thing, if there should be an all swords, rockets, hammers, snipers, etc games, why not have BR games??

  • 05.31.2009 8:07 PM PDT

No kidding the BR is a pretty good all around weapon for medium and close range. its a really good improvement from the h2 BR

Last I played, there were still SMG-only starts, so I went back to Halo 3 (at the time when I was stiill playing H3). Halo 2 started to die, because of the abuse of Stand-bye and other cheating tactics. For me, it never really died, but I was unable to play during Summers and I took a year off of College in which I couldn't play.

And, what's the difference between Rocket-only gametypes and BR-only gametypes, anyway? The BR at least adds a little more diversity to the game. Personally, the only gametypes in Halo 3 I can play all day long are those which stress the M6G Magnum, like Infection or M6G SWAT-like settings. A M6G-only gametype could go a long way for adding to Halo 3's gameplay experience. But, I know that will never happen since Bungie has their head up their ass, when it comes to improving their game.

In my opinion the Battle Rifle was created perfectly and no change is required.

  • 05.31.2009 8:50 PM PDT

The BR can't consistantly 4-shot halfway across the pit, that is far too inaccurate.

If I could spawn with a carbine and just pretend the BR never exsisted than I would probably have alot more fun on this game, too bad that it is the only mid range weapon that you can't spawn with.

It seems their is more people whining about winners.
I personally think the BR needs some tweaks, and less randomness, I like the old days where when I fired at their head 4 times they died. Now it seems to be random.


i agree the BR just pisses me off now.

Yeah thats called a headshot.

I personally think its fine but I hardly ever use it and I don't hate it so its not annoying when other people use it.

Forget the BR. Increase the Magnum clip size, and make it the default starting weapon.

  • 05.31.2009 11:25 PM PDT

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Agreed, but with a very slight increase to fire rate. It should shoot just a little tiny bit faster.

And when it comes to everyone who thinks it should be switchable from Semi-Auto, to Full Auto. No. That would make the Carbine AND Assault Rifle completely useless.

i think that the battle rifle is fine how it is. but they could make the scope let you see a longer range. but u are right about the lock on thing.

  • 06.01.2009 1:25 AM PDT

it's fine how it is

I've only just started to get into the BR since I've increased my head-shot accuracy, but I think it definatley stands out among other weapons! It's not unlike an Assault Rifle with better accuracy and a different fire rate (bursts over automatic)

there IS! It's called MLG

Halo: CE > > Halo 3 > Halo: Reach = Halo 2

Conclusion:

Those who played Halo 1 and Halo 2 competitively, think the Halo 3 BR needs worked on. These people are generally very good with the BR.

Those who have not played Halo 1 and Halo 2 competitively, think the BR is "fine". And gods gift to humankind. These people can be very good, decent, or just plain suck with the BR.

Summary... ignorance is bliss.
