I am a Halo 3 Failure.

You have your Battle Rifle, except now you start off with it, and you have a SMG secondary instead of an Assault Rifle.

Everyone wins here, stop making Battle Rifle threads.

Four shots, four kills, reload, repeat. This is the work of a sniper.

Yes.

Agreed. I'd pick the pistol M6C over the BR any day.

  • 06.06.2009 8:40 PM PDT

exactly. I love both either way. If the BR was single shot, I'd jizz everywhere. That's basically the H1 pistol though. This pistol for ODST looks awesome.

  • 06.06.2009 9:00 PM PDT

Yes and the Halo 3 PISTOL is also better if that isn't the M6C

id say, battle rifle=pistol
it depends on the person who wields the weapon has good accuracy.

No, since when does Pistol = Br?

Pistol =/= Br.

It is an okay substitute, but it will never equal the BR. I dislike when kids like yourself, say stupid things like this = that.

This doesn't equal that, because that is different then this.

Edit: You still have the assault rifle though.

In match making, if you were to choose the Pistol M6C, you'd get out shot, over, and over and over again.

yeh because the pistol is better

The Auto Mag is not even close to the Battle Rifle. They both have zoom, but that's the only resemblance, besides that they're both black. BR is Burst, Mag is full auto. BR has 36 bullets, Auto Mag has 8, (or 6, or 12, in other models.)

  • 06.06.2009 9:11 PM PDT

I don't see what the fuss is about. The battle rifle is in multiplayer still, its just not in campaign. The pistol functions the same way, just without a three bullet burst, I'm sure you will survive, or even enjoy the gun.

Halo 3: ODST's pistol =/= Halo 1's pistol
You would not be able to 3 shot kids.

The pistols range is way worse then a BR's.

true bro, i use both weapons; BR for mid to long range and pistol for close range(dont know why though) but with the scope, thats a way differ scale.it also depends on how fast i pull the trigger on each weapon.

  • 06.06.2009 9:13 PM PDT

You have to account for the fact that that automag fires as fast as the shooter can pull the trigger, while the BR has delays in between bursts. Plus the silenced thing is just badass.

Long rage, the br would win, long range is like from the cluster of rocks in front of the waterfall base on valhalla to the top of the hill

From the spot where you land from the mancannon to the top of the hill to anywhere closer than that range, the new pistol would win, depending on how accurate you are and how fast you can pull the trigger

at close rage you can 3 shot someone with a pistol so ya pistol=/=Br it shats on it

Why does it matter if the pistol is or isn't equal to BR, it only affects ODST. Bungie would have taken it out so it would make the game better. It doesn't affect halo matchmaking, only ODST

Mag is full auto. BR has 36 bullets, Auto Mag has 8, (or 6, or 12, in other models.)

The mag is semi auto buddy, full auto is where you hold down the trigger, like smgs and ARs



  • 06.06.2009 9:22 PM PDT

love the pistol in halo 2 though.(faster rate of fire)
but i know the BR has a 3 brust shot and it spreads, just love the accracy in both weapons.but bungie made a good decsion not to put the BR in ODST.

Wait, how do you know this? Have you played campaign yet? Have you tried to go up to a fully shielded Brute and try to 3 shot him? Probably not right? And I highly doubt that you could do this.

BR>Pistol

Though, I do think taking out the BR was a good decision for ODST's campaign.

That however does not mean that the BR is worse then the pistol.

The BR is better then the pistol in all aspects, infact, Bungie probably took out the BR so it wouldn't be used the whole time. To make us use other weapons.

Face it, you all know that if the BR was in ODST, we would use it more then any other weapon. The campaign would be too easy. That is because the BR is the better weapon.
