My thoughts:

*The BR was designed with strengths and weaknesses.
*The weaknesses were added in to offset the strengths.
*It takes skill to use the BR like JonnyOThan said.
*The BR is as effective as it was designed to be.
*Bungie DOESNT have to fix the BR because it is the way they want it to be.

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




Thank you!

A BR thread? What about Carbines?!

We can't have Carbine starts, or even spawn them on certain levels?! WHATT?!

It is the soldier, not the reporter, Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet, Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the organizer, Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier, Who salutes the flag, Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag

BR is the M-16

Good long to med range, but close up it's not the best choice.

And bungie? you should have a M203 on it or some sort of launcher.

Halo: CE was designed so that on most maps and in most situations, players already had the best weapon-the human pistol. While the pistol is tremendously overpowered (two body shots and a headshot is a kill), everyone starts with one in most situations (Wizard was an example of where they didn't). By starting everyone with an equally powerful weapon, Bungie's map design demanded performance from the players. Victory is determined by skill rather than the randomness of the weapon.

Too bad its inconsistent.

Bleeding hearts will always run dry

I have a question, kind of relates to a game I played this morning...

Right, people talk about the "4-shot" thing with the BR. So that's relating to four well-placed bursts with the weapon to kill...? If so, why is it that it takes what seems like a quarter of a clip with the AR to bring the opponent's shield to enough of a level to finish them with a flick'a-de-wrist, but three BR bursts then a melee isn't a kill?

(I feel I should put add a disclaimer in order to, um, disclaim that I'm not bleating on about either weapon, and that I've been using the BR more these days, it was just an honest question regarding weapon/projectile power.)

Two perfect BR shots to the head and a melee kills, in MLG settings anyway.

I like video games

yep. The BR needed some small weakness and that's close-range. Bungie needed to leave room for kids to spray-and-pray to get kills so they made the AR dominate the real close range game.
