...If you dont have a BR, or if your not decent with it, just avoid a BR battle...NOt EVERYONE can be good with the BR, thats why bungie provided us with a plethora of amazing weapons...move as a unit with people who CAN BR...

While long winded and over written, "King Nikki" got it. If you can't own with the BR, stick with someone who can. Few things are as dangerous as a guy with a BR and his sidekick with an AR & $hit load o' nades backing him up. If you can't win with the BR, find a weapon you can, and there are plenty to choose from.

I think the BR is perfect the way it is, even though I am not very good at using it,I still think its a good weapon.

the BR is great, is great for small spaces. the carbine can kill WWWAAYY faster than the BR, but you need an open space due to each shot doing little damage. but i still prefer the BR due to it being more powerful. Its perfect just the way it is

I know this sounds dumb but how do you comment without replying to someone else. Btw anyone who hates the br is a person who doesn't know how to use it(:

this thread will never end as long as there is someone online who wont stop complaining about the br.

i use the br, i like it, but not to where i use it the entire damn game
the br is not a power weapon at all, the person using the BR makes it a power weapon
a shotgun in a noobs hands is useless when they have no idea how to use it
same goes for the rocket launcher they will end killing themself more than getting anyone else
but if a person who knows how to play the game and knows what he/she is doing then yes it becomes a power weapon.

ANY weapon can be a power weapon a pistol, needler, AR ,sniper,shotgun,carbine, etc, any weapon can used perfectly but u have to know wat u are doing with the weapon and how to use it. some weapons are easier to use than others oh well sorry noobs umm get over it dualies never failed me before... niether did ninjaing peaple,though it takes skill to do that.

SWAT was made for the gamers who like the BR and can use them flawlessly.
MLG almost same concept except for maps are different and game is different.
if im sucking in the playlist oh well there are other playlists to excel in.

if u look at my gamer tag xTHExL0NExW0LFx,or xXHELLSOLIDERXx i dont use the br very much at all no i use all the weapons depending on what map im on and what my oppents are using.

i dont know why all of you people cream your pants at the BR. i mean its an average weapon. its not the most powerful, its not the most versatile, its not the most skilled weapon. i mean bungie put other weapons in maps for a reason. and if someone knows how to use whatever weapon they come across than they are the most skilled. all weapons have their purposes. all weapons have a time and place for use. no one weapon is an all purpose weapon. i think all you BR fan boys need to get a clue.

thats wat i was tryin to say

the br is an okay weapon, but use other weapons too.
its not that difficult. i have friends online who mainly use nothin but snipers and they kick the BRs A$$ almost 100% of the time because they have mastered the sniper.not the br. other friends of mine have mastered the mauler and they learned that BR is at a distance when he/she gets closer shoot him or assinate him not that friggin hard.

I'm pretty shur that if you walk into someone w/t shotgun your the noob cause thats just stupid to do, same for swords. when the chase you with the energy sword or shotgun, just walk backwards and four shot them.

i didnt say anything about walking up to someone with a shotgun now did I?

u dont need a br to kill a person with a sword or shot gun,
i use AR and then beat them down if they are useing swords
if there using shotties then i keep shooting till either they reload then beat them down(which never ever happens) or i pick a different weapon and unload on his/her A$$
and even when i hav a sniper up close i no scope like its nobody buisness. and it works.

--- You Dead, Thanks For Playing ---

The br's a good weapon im most situations. I love it, but it's not perfect. I kill people who seem to think the br's godly with smg-magnum combo, works fine for me. Stop whining if you will. Use it when it's convenient.

am i suposed to put sumtin here?

i agree that the br is awsome and stuff but i dont agree that you need skill and crap to use it. ive only had halo3 for a month and im not exactly the best but i can get by with the battle rifle just fine. all you have to do is hit them in the head 3 times or so at close range and at a more distant range probly about 5 or 6 good shots to get the job done

  • 07.30.2009 8:14 PM PDT

I made a tibute to the BR myself.

"Resignation is my virtue; like water I ebb and flow. Defeat is simply the addition of time to a sentence I never deserved." -Gravemind

Well, I personally like it, I've gotten more kills with it than any other weapon. But it's because it's a commonly available weapon. I prefer the sniper, but they're a lot harder to aquire, so I find the best available weapon and go to town with it whether it be a BR or a needler. You have to work with what you have, and how you do that determines your true skill and value in a strategic situation.

  • 07.31.2009 8:49 AM PDT

The only problem I have with the BR is the registration issues, but that's mainly XBL. If Bungie could make it so that there's less lag to the game (like in H2) then it'd be perfect, then again it's called LAN for a reason. lol

By the way, the BR is the ultimate weapon to have. You can protect yourself from virtually any situation, unlike the AR where it's only close range.

I like the BR the way it is. I also like pancakes with lots of butter and syrup.

  • 07.31.2009 12:59 PM PDT

i like the br. i use it. i hate the countless screenshots depicting it owning people or stuff like "download if you love to br" or people talking about it nonstop, i bet more than 10 people have a tatoo of a br.

No, Bungie said they are not planning on changing it.
It's just that so many people feel that the Battle Rifle should be more accurate and have a longer range, that Bungie got tired of seeing the same groups of people asking daily for the change, so they designated one thread for all Battle Rifle discussion.
