quit bit%$ing scrubs the br is great and maybe if you knew how to use it you wouldn't be complaining.

The BR spread is terrible. If you aim at the head of a guy that is moving, only 2 out of the 3 bullets will hit and it will do less damage than aiming at the chest which takes no skill. The spread is straight trash. They should make the BR just like halo 2 which was perfect.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

This argument was so good that I'm sure Bungie is convinced to change it back.

I stand before you Ive seen what I've had to but now i leave your sight to avenge my family, I've taken my whole life there's nothing left to say.

Br is nice =D i have a goblin br, come see me in mlg bk's

  • 07.14.2009 11:07 PM PDT

the br is fine the way it is but i really like the old br in the halo 2 demo video which the br was single fire that why a prefer a carabine than a br

  • 07.15.2009 12:48 AM PDT

The Battle Rifle is arguably the ultimate weapon in Halo 3, in either campaign or multiplayer mode. The BR has unbeatable damage and accuracy at medium range and a high capacity magazine. Of course you could always make it more powerful, even over-powered, but the BR as it stands is the weapon of choice for the Halo 3 pro and in MLG.

There are more destructive weapons, the Spartan Laser being the obvious example. There are also more "specialist" weapons, like the armour-plating on the front and wings of a Banshee, which I find is most effective when the enemy is suspended in mid-air about a hundred feet off the ground.

lead the shots.... Don't use a BR if u don't know how to use it. simple.

The BR is fine. Use your knowledge of the specific atributes of the BR to effect the way you use it. Don't complain about it apparently being to imperfect to be good enough to use. if you know how the spread works and practice to get really acustomed to shooting at different ranges you can negate the negative effects by how your placing your shots depending on how far away you are from the target, how fast they are moving e.t.c. If they are shooting at you and they are not applying the same critical control based on the same aspects of the weapon, you will win. Ergo it IS a weapon of skill and NOT based on luck.

has anyone ever seen what the battle rifle looks like at an angle, its like the p90 from far cry :P you just have to look at it from the right angle

  • 07.15.2009 7:18 AM PDT

I personally think the BR is overpowered, I thought since they brought back the AR they would at least make them evenly powered, They should give it some recoil that would balance it out more

I think Bungie should make a playlist, maybe a double exp or something and there are no Carbines or BR's, cause Shadow Wolf and other people are right, alot of people would suck without BR's, so it goes to show how much are just noobs or how many are actually good.

Me and my ODST we are our own breed, forged from combat and bread from years of battle as ODST. So you can take your -blam!- ODST clan invites and shove 'em. Rookies don't run jack, we do.

I like the BR spread of Halo 2 better. The Halo 3 BR spread is not as accurate, but I'd take it over an AR any day.
