I will never love the br like i did the halo one pistol but i think it is over powered in halo 3. It is a great gun and is absolutely amazing however when br is on the field it almost eliminates the need to use dual yeild weapons and it changes the dynamic of super weopons because if you miss you just mop up with the br.

I will always drop my ar for a br but the ar is nice too, it may be in my head but if you shoot it in bursts at a distants it is more effective

I think the AR takes more skill. Try to get a running riot using nothing but the AR.

This is just a simple request but couldn't bungie with the next update at least give the AR the Sound of ODST, a refined Halo CE would be ideal

  • 11.30.2009 7:44 AM PDT

br is fine ar should be more like the one in halo ce

Run or be sniped

here's my opinion:

AR: best in close combat.
BR: best in medium range and when you beat-down first then head-shot.

over all the BR is a little overpowered and the AR doesn't get much appretation. they are both good depending on the situation you are put in.

In Halo CE I liked the Assualt Rifle with its high capcity mag and high amount of firepower

In Halo 2 the Battle rifle was weak but good capcity and range

In Halo 3 the Assault made a come back.

let me list the ways it blows

1.) mag capcity lowered (come on 60 to 32 what kind of crap is that)

2.) fire power lowered (in Halo CE it would take 3 shots to kill a grunt, now it takes 7-8 shots)

3.) acurrency has been lowered (nothing to put there)

The Battle Rifle is better

1.) moderate ammo

2.) high acurrency

3.)high damage

negatives

1.) brust action waste ammo (why not signle shot semi)

2.) mag runs low in battle



Winner
Battle Rifle

I agree, the BR makes it so no one dual wields, for fear of dieing before they can even hurt anyone. Also in Lone Wolves, people just wait and BR anyone with low shields, it is the ultimate KSing weapon. If the pistol was better like the Halo 2 pistol, and we didn't have the BR period, Halo 3 would have much better online. The BR creates more problems then it solves, look at the threads and anger it has caused.

the br is awsome the ar is best at long range i just wish it had a sight to use at mid range the br is best used without a scope though i love them both i hate noobs who use the shotgun though

  • 12.01.2009 2:17 PM PDT

Capt GhostRyder, I completely agree with you, and I also say things like that to people who call me a battle rifle noob or a rocket noob. The guns in Halo 3 are in the game for a reason, so you can use any weapon your comfortable with, so just use the gun you like it does matter who thinks one gun is better than the other thats all your opinion which is fine but bungie isn't going to change any weapon just because you think it takes no skill to use or one has advantage over another. If you know how to use the weapon right then you would win mostly all the time.

honestly ive had very little problems with dropped bullets and the spread... its not complicated use at the range its supposed to be used from if u dont get ur kill then assume u made a mistake and try to get better instead of taking a whole bunch of time to rewatch it and go AHA the game messed up that one time...woo... get better and quit complaining

  • 12.01.2009 5:05 PM PDT

i think the br is cool and i like the ar too but it really depends on the map or gametype, for example if im going for the flag on isolation, ill probably use the AR. but if im heading across the map on sandtrap ill use the BR

We don't inherit the world from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.

bungie fail: motion trackers on TS.

look, everything that needs to be said about the br has been said.

HMO: you need skill. The skill factor makes MLG actually worth something. Second, the H2 BR was user friendly, and bungie knew that. think of it as a maturing process. With a kid you give him training wheels (small spread) when first riding a bike. Then you take them off (H3 br) and he rides off. If he is good enough, he does backflips with it (Pro's wielding BRs). If he gets angry, he has two choices: whine and put his training wheels back on (play H2 instead) or buy a motorcycle (sniper rifle).

thanks!

Just use the AR from halo: ce and you're sorted end of there, for halo 3 online, if you master the head shots with the BR, your a very strong opponent.
