wat IS WRONG with it?
Let me tell you and anybody else who doesn't see what is "wrong" with the BR...WHATS ACTUALLY WRONG...
Ok so first off, It's the year 2552. You would think a gun such as the BR would be accurate, no doubt about it. It even has a scope FFS. Why jip people out of their kills by implementing a random BR spread that misses people that you are actually aiming at? With MLG settings the BR is the starting weapon for all gametypes. I use it more than any other weapon BY FAR. Now, just cause im from MLG, and i play MLG settings and customs, PLEASE DON'T BASH ME. Bungie in fact is a SPONSOR of MLG whether you guys like it or not. Bungie WAS AWARE that they have competitive fans in MLG before that made h3. Although Bungie wanted there to be a BR spread, at least give us options to change it in custom games/forge.
Alright, Bungie made the game for you guys to have fun. you guys can like the BR as much as you want, and not notice anything about the BR. But for the competitive players, it leaves us in the dust, and we in fact DO notice A LOT wrong with the BR
So, why include a random BR spread and not give any options in custom games to maybe tighten it or to change settings for individual weapons if you're going to give us a BR so different from halo 2? I understand that the current way the BR is is the way Bungie would like it to be, but for competitive players, skill should not be determined by the randomness of a weapon. I've been out BR'ed many times because my bullets have spread around the opponents head or my bullets didn't register, which brings me to my next thing that is "wrong".
You may notice it, you may not, but i think this is something very noticeable. In halo 3, you can be "refunded" bullets back into your clip of a weapon. I've had it happen with 3 weapons before. The Assault Rifle, Rocket Launcher, and of course, the BR. You get bullets back due to your bullets not counting, or "not registering". When 12 bullets are required to make a 4 shot with the last bullet having to be a headshot and you have 1 or sometimes even 2 or 3 bullets that dont count, It's hard to accomplish a 4 shot or out BR somebody. This is a something problem that NEVER happened in halo 2.
If none of you are aware, MLG settings includes 110% damage modifier. Can you guess why? On average, 1 out of every 12 bullets does not count, making it almost impossible to 4 shot unless one is lucky to have all their bullets register. Why have luck involved in a game that takes skill? With 110% damage, it only requires 11 bullets with the last being to the head to 4 shot. We would not have this setting in MLG if bullets actually counted.
In conclusion, the BR has a random spread that does not reward players for their skill and a registration problem that has never been seen before in halo. These problems need to be addressed as soon as possible and will in my opinion make game play much better. Also, there is also a competitive community that Bungie sponsors in MLG. They should always have the competitive community in mind.
Honestly...people are still wasting time writing pages of text about this? Isn't it obvious nobody cares you don't like the BR anymore?
It's the same arguments over and over again. We don't agree with you, you don't agree with us - but hundreds of thousands of players agree with us and still keep playing every night. The only thing you guys are succeeding in doing is making the forums less fun for those us who come here to enjoy the game.
Can't you guys find something better to do than waste everybody's time with your own personal reiteration of why you don't like Halo 3...like, oh, I don't know...actually playing a game or reading a book or something?
Work off some of that angst...Summer's almost over...it's nice out...go play frisbee or something.
