I like the BR just the way it is.

I really don't see what's wrong with it.


I wish the AR was as powerful as in the first halo...

1st of all i would like to point out that there are 299 pages on this one thread! really! What the hell!
and 2nd and obviously more important: STFU! im really getting sick of people -blam!-ing about the br. its a virtual gun for gods sake! who cares whether its not your favourite gun in the whole goddamn world? no-one thats who. i myself like both the ar and br but of course i prefer the br because i dont like having to run after people to get close enough to them to actually do some actual damage to them. thank you. youve made me something that i hate. people who -blam!-. good day!

youre dumb. if the br was taken out nobody would play.
You're right, because everyone would start doing badly without their precious over-powered BR.

If Bungie took the BR out of matchmaking for one day, I bet all of those "god" Halo 3 players would suck.

OMG I love you. That's how you're supposed to play, use the other weapons not just the BR.

Tank beats everything. Even the AR...and the BR..

BR? or AR? i choose neither, i have my trusty tank.

  • 12.17.2009 4:38 PM PDT

The only complain I have is why in social slayer and other playlist excpet for MLG you must search for a BR and its a time waster and then when you die you lose your Br

But still the BR is a useful gun. Usually players that complete Legendary on campaign tend to stick to the BR for its ability to kill indiscriminately at a range, while players that haven't love the AR. Campaign on Legend with grunt birthday party skull on rocks, throw in a BR and it rocks even better.

Amen. Though the BR is a reasonable second choice.

Honestly, I use both equally whenever I can. Mostly, I switch out my AR for Shotgun because the Shotgun does what the AR does better, with a slower rate of fire. Thats probably why My top weapon is BR since I love the Shotgun so much and switch the AR out.

BR - Battle Rifle
The one that shoots three shots in a row for each trigger pressing (semi-automatic its called). Can head shoot.

AR - Assault Rifle
The one you start with on campaign, the first mission. Hold trigger and keeps firing (automatic its called). Cannot head shoot.

I agree theres nothing wrong with the br. i think its way better than the assault rifle. lot easier to get headshots.

  • 12.18.2009 4:12 PM PDT

I like how ar was in the first halo and then halo 2 presents the br then they combine them in 3 to make the perfect duo of weapons. This is my first post btw

  • 12.18.2009 6:43 PM PDT

i like both the AR and BR. It just depends on my situation. if i'm mid-range i use the BR. if im closer, i use the AR. Thats why i like Slayer BRS over regular Slayer. especially after they put magnums in the secondary slot.

All of the god H3 players would suck? Ha, far from the case. Actually, most H2 and H3 pros were the best in the world at Halo CE.

He's right. Nobody would play Halo if there was no BR. BR skill is what seperates could players from bad players. So what if you beat me in an AR game? That just says that could spray a fuc*ing house better than me. There is no skill involved in using an AR. I wouldn't even call AR games first person shooter games because there is no shooting going on, only spraying. Point and spray. Damn, that takes some real skill to do eh? Without the BR, Halo is pointless, and the only reason why people like you demonize the BR is because you don't have the skill to compete with people who can handle a BR. If there were no BR, I would be playing Modern Warfare.

I don't understand how anyone is even defending the AR. When I go into matchmaking, I veto the gametype for BR's. I don't even pay attention to the map, only the gametyp, because I know that if I get an AR start game, I am going to be spawning with a weapon that I am not capable of defending myself with against anything beyond close range. Essentially, I can only kill what is within a few feet of me. With a BR spawn, I automatically have a weapon I can properly defend myself with. When your playing against quality players every single game, it's critical to have a BR start game (which is typically why I play MLG) because once a quality team has map control as well as BR control, it's check mate. Most of you probably won't believe that because you've never played against anyone good.

okay basically lets bring something in to account in this aargument.

Ar-rules

Br-rules

Ar-fires pullets out of barrel bullets spread to increses hit rate bullets hit bullets kill
Br- fires burst bullets spread a bit. bullets hit.

Ar-close range

Br-mid range

And any one who wont play a game type because there isnt a Br obviously is the real noob.

  • 12.19.2009 8:18 AM PDT

The next person to assume I am talking about ranked, do us all a favor and look at what I play!

@bluestreak: AR is a cerebral weapon. Using it is like playing doom 3. You have to use your wits to fight with it. It's about flanking, grenades, ambushes, and timing. The AR weilder can be highly effective, but only when they use their intelligence. I was really good at head to head (I got to level 30 before they took it away.) I frequently went up against BR weilders, and I still thrashed them. I was being intelligent, and used the weaknesses of their weapons against them. I remember the time that I was on construct in a BR game. I found an AR, and I slaughtered that guy. The BR does not kill with four to five headbursts. It often takes a lot of headbursts. Just play something that isn't MLG or SWAT, and you'll often have to headshoot a guy with the BR at least a minimum of 6 times before they die.

I like my replys like I like my women short n sexy. AR rulz but magnum rulz in h1. if BR was taking out 4 a day people would still play.BR Rulz

  • 12.19.2009 8:47 PM PDT

I don't think either one is bad. It's just annoying when someone five shots you out of nowhere. I have no problem with the Ar, but I hate that when me and someone else get close up with it, and melee, we both die.

BR - the perfect weapon. Great at medium range, good long range and beats most other weapons close up.
