I don't fully agree with you. Yes the br takes skills, but look at how many who got the skills. The majority of people are able to perform headshots. So it can't be that hard to use it.
And it takes down the shield way to fast. Not even the carbine, who is the covenat's response to the br kills that quick. And not to use the br doesn't change the fact that other people use it. The problem is not that I don't like it, the problem is that it is to powerfull, either make it do less damage against sheilds or make it less available. That's how I feel about the whole br situation.


Actually, the carbine kills slightly faster than the BR. The carbine kills in 2 seconds with headshots, the BR in 2.3. The carbine kills in 3 swconds with body shots, the BR takes 3.6. So the carbine can kill faster than the BR in any given situation.
but the carbine is much harder to hit with


This is true, but is inherently better, even if harder to use. A more skilled person would beat a BR every time.

I've seen my family fade away, You've taken my whole life left me nothing to say. Sitting in silence with heaven above me i prayed every night by their graves. I search for closure i feel it no longer i can't turn my face away. 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.

I still don't get that. I've played like 10,000 games of halo 3 online and this "bullet spread" has never been a problem for me.

Yea, thats cause its not except at super long range, and for that matter, the carbine has a smaller bullet spread than the BR, so I dont see how that makes the Carbine inferior.

lol thats an epic fail at trying to steal GT's.

but I never even experience bullet spread. I never see it happen either.

Bulletspread totally happens to all guns. In halo 3, the first shot on almsot every automatic weapon shoots perfectly straight the first shot, then loses accuracy. Thats why bursting with the AR works and modded rapid fire controllers turn your AR into a sniper rifle. Single fire weapons, lie the BR and Carbines always have spread. This is easily testable. The 3 shot burst also gets less accuate on the secondand third shots. So yes, there is a spred, and its not as prounced on the Carbine in my opinion, and the Carbine is inherently better because it kills faster. Thats why you spwan with a BR and have to pick up carbines. Who would grad a BR if they spawned with a carbine?

The carbine is a lot better than the br. People just don't realize it and cuss you out when you kill them with it. O.o

lol. All this arguing about the AR and BR is pointless, when they are to completely different weapon. Why not talk about how the carbine is so much better.

Ar>br close to med range. Br>ar further out into mid and long to a certain extent past that the sniper and laser dominate all O.o Carbine has a fast enough rof that it can be between the ar and br then also single shots more accurate than a burst so a bit longer than the br also.

Carbines are better because of the single shot reason and the only reason its unused is because there arent any on some of the maps. The only reason I use the BR is for tht reason and the spread is actually helpful in SWAT.

solitary

I totally Agree with you and know what its like being spamed with messages i hardly do that i only socialize with people and plus i don't really know why people begged in the old days about recon they should just leave you bungie employees only and maybe you may change your mind and give it not saying you will but yeah gives you break so you can do your job i feel sorry for you bungie employees i really do i don't a what about recon because its just a armour i play the game for fun really like we all should not just go after this one armour and then you will get bored of it no point really when halo reach comes they will be playing that trying to get the rarest armour on that if there is lol i really don't get people nowa days.

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your DESTINY.

The use of ANY weapon is entirely situational. at close range certain weapons have the advantage over others. Then at mid range, long range. however, where the BR stands alone is in close range where if u land 4 head shots and move backwards while some noob is trying to spray/rush/melee u with the AR, your BR will have become effective at pretty much any range. its all about how good that particular person is on the sticks and the situation/weapons involved in the situation.

I typically think there is Nothing wrong with the "BR".. Here's a Simple thing to Remeber If you don't like the Weapon then "Don't Use it".. Simple as that So please don't complain this weapon is awesome.

fail. If you're moving backwards trying to get your 4 headshots while I'm ARing you, you will most likely die unless I really screw up and start aiming behind me.

The only way that will work in the br guys favor is if the guy with an ar runs in a direct straight line.
