You can never succeed if you never try.

The BR is a solid weapon. Yes it can be a little strong at times, but that is what makes it such a great weapon.

i dont see anything wrong with the battle rifle, it has its purposes, but its the players who use them who tick me off. why do they claim its the best weapon in the game when there is no best weapon in the game. every weapon has a purpose but its these people claiming it takes the most skill and its the most versatile that are ruining the game. all they do is whine and complain when someone uses something other than their little obsessed over battle rifle.

i mean these people are absolutely pathetic. i mean come on people OPEN YOUR EYES! bungie put in the "hold RB to pick up weapon" option for a reason. mix things up a little. go for the duel spiker combo every now and then. pick up the rocket launcher. it doesnt make you a noob for doing it. just because someone told you the BR takes the most skill doesnt mean its true. and the weapon is only as good as its user. its not the actual gun.

i recently read an article about how there should be a semi auto 1 shot weapon like the carbine, but for humans (not the pistol). I think that the BR is just fine. If your good with it, fine go 4-shot, if not use the AR. It has awesome range, and good power, and easy to use at short range, too. plus, if the game is slayer, the BR is really easy to get. And if it is slayer BRs, then usually you get a side arm as AR

I agree with exoskel8 the br is a semi auto one shot.... i use the br most of the time but when i get close range i use my ar.

Using the Battle Rifle takes no skill and adds way too many random kills to games. You only need 4 shots and it's absolutely pathetic and terrible game design. When picking off people with the BR from far away, you don't actually have to FIGHT them in any way or form. You just pull the trigger 4 times and they die. It dilutes the Halo experience to an unprecedented level.

The Battle Rifle should be removed from all Halo multiplayer playlists but the MLG ones.

i play the game 4 fun. an 2 win. i have recon.

Which of the following will I do?
A. Give you up. B. Let you down.
C. Run around. D. Desert you.
E. None of the above.

I disagree with Jbarbarian

It takes plenty of skill. If you have enough skill to four-shot someone while in a battlefield filled with enemies and countless things happening at once, then you deserve the kill.
90% of the time people aren't standing still while using a BR, they are dodging other bullets, running for objectives, ducking for cover, etc. If this isnt evidence enough that it takes some skill, just look at the people who need 10-12 bursts of a BR to kill someone in a firefight. Not everyone has absolute accuracy.

I'm out of chips.

The problem with the battle rifle is not it's spread, it's that everyone who uses it thinks they're the best halo player in the universe. It doesn't take very much skill at all. The carbine and pistol take way more skill than the battle rifle. And the only reason it's my tool of destruction is because it sucks at close range, so you can't really shoot then melee kill unless you get two headshots in. And most of my kills are beat down, usually assisted with the AR. If you combined my AR kills and melee kills, it would definitely exceed my -blam!- rifle kills.

But that's not the point. The point is that the BR's only problem is the people who use it, and there's nothing Bungie can do about that. So I'm probably the only person that hates the BR but is telling people to stop complaining cuz seriously, Bungie can change the gun but not the player.

i dont see anything wrong with the battle rifle, it has its purposes, but its the players who use them who tick me off. why do they claim its the best weapon in the game when there is no best weapon in the game. every weapon has a purpose but its these people claiming it takes the most skill and its the most versatile that are ruining the game. all they do is whine and complain when someone uses something other than their little obsessed over battle rifle.

i mean these people are absolutely pathetic. i mean come on people OPEN YOUR EYES! bungie put in the "hold RB to pick up weapon" option for a reason. mix things up a little. go for the duel spiker combo every now and then. pick up the rocket launcher. it doesnt make you a noob for doing it. just because someone told you the BR takes the most skill doesnt mean its true. and the weapon is only as good as its user. its not the actual gun.
I totally agree with you, 100%
