well my forum was locked and I got warned so I thought I would move the discussion here.

Here's the deal, I've played since 9/25/07 and I've NEVER gotten a kill with the BR. No joke.

That's amazing! I didn't even think that was possible.

"you may laugh at me for being different, but i laugh at all you -blam!-s for being the same!!"

personally, i think the BR is a little too strong. thats why i like the DMR in halo reach more. it takes more skill to use, really hard to spray with, and the damage is a little more reasonable. although im gonna miss the BR, i think the DMR will take its place rather well ;)

the BR is decent weapon, especially in infection and campaign, not so good on matchmaking for me though(lack of skill) :p although it much more accurate than the AR at long range (obviosly)

With the AR you have to burst fire, know when to grenade, know when to keep your distance, when you melee, time your reloads.

BR is just aim and shoot.

Nope, AR is spray and pray + melee.
BR=Leading shots, aiming, strafing, counter-strafing, and has many different techniques.

I saw your thread and service record, that is amazing but did you not try to master the carbine, or is it too similar to the BR?

All it takes for tea baggers to win, is for good men not to kill them first...

Personally, I think the br is better...but that's just because I've been playing team swat alot recently!! They both have their places in a fight, it's all based upon a players ability to position himself/herself so that their choice of weapon can be used most effectively to eliminate the immediate threat...it's w/e you can make work to kill the other gamer before he does you in! :)) lol

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


It's not people not liking to use it, it's people being killed by it who claim to have 'skill'.

Personally, I don't think you can have a genuine 'skill' at playing video games. Considering half the motions are automatic gestures and for example melee is non-counterable, the only 'skill' you can have are good reflexes and being able to turn quickly. None more. If you have the luck to pan a crosshair over someone's head and blow it off, congrats to you. But it doesn't grant you skill.

OT: BR is better to use in SWAT than regular playlists, where I find myself preferring the AR. Just feels better.

The Battle Rifle is a beastly weapon, why change it? I think it's fine the way it is.

Assault Rifle FTW!

Im a straight up BEAST!

i completely agree. the AR pisses me off but i deal with it. people shouldnt be going on the forums to whine about a decent weapon that was designed to be exactly what it is.

For the record, I would tap that like like it was put-put golf. Like a college student opening a beer keg. Like a phone in the cold war. Like an oil company in a nature reserve. Like a goddamn telegraph.

I really think that the BR is one of the best guns in halo 3. But nowadays, instead of four head shots to kill somebody it takes me five. Does this happen to you people?

im fine with the BR. I never had dropping bullets or spread problems. Even if i do, i hardly notice it. I just use it when i need to. If it drops bullets, oh well. Spread? It's only a game. I don't see why everyone complains.


Same with me i think the exact same thing

Then anyway when i'm playing Slayer BR's ALL the people exept for me use AR. It's just so un respectful to the game type.

  • 09.04.2010 10:27 PM PDT

I hate those who in Team BRs immediately switch to AR cause they can't use BR... BR is fine weapon and best of the spawn weapons.
