I don't care.

The BR replaced the Halo CE pistol in Halo 2, now the pistol is back.
Think of it that way.

The only people who want the BR in Halo 3: ODST are those are "MLG", "ub3r 1337", "porfessinal gamers", etc. In short, the only people who want the BR in Halo 3: ODST are those who can't use anything else.

Sweet, no BR, i hate it, sure, its powerfull, but needs ammo like hell and the BR is a bit unbalanced.I mean, in Halo CE , there was no BR, in Halo 2 there is a BR, instead of AR is an SMG and the Pistol is sucking ass.In Halo 3, the Halo CE pistol is there, but whitout scope.And the AR has 32 shots a magasine, and less extra ammo. So im happy not having BR.

I hate it when it is all people use but it is fun to use every once in a while

Everyone needs to stop crying about the BR not being in the game. It's only the CAMPAIGN! You can still use the BR in the multiplayer. Get over it.


True, BR lives on! : D

The SMG looks way better silenced so I don't really mind. The BR is probably to powerful for the game?

the battlerifle is better than the smg

actually its not its weeker and who needs a retard rifle when you can have the covanent carbine lot faster of kills any way

It only seems weaker if you can't get headshots with it. I call the two equal until the Jesus SMG came in with the awesome upgrades. BTW the carbine is the exact same thing as the BR just human. It can get kills fast, if you can aim.


omg thank you for that (: i mean i play with the br all the time since i follow the mlg way.
I've been reading through this post and alot of the post Imo is laughable.
u can't say the br is crap and Ar pwns u can't exactly say br pwns ar completely either.
in a close range situation i will pick Ar. no duh
but then a mid range and long range situation .br... and it still works with close range too.
in short. br is hella loads more usefull "USEFULL" than the Ar
try shooting me across the map of guardian with an AR and ill use a Br. lets see who wins. but close ranges, Ar will prevail...if u put everyshot in the enemies body. if not ull die in about 2 -3 seconds with 4 shots of br in ur head.

I'm glad it's gone, no more -blam!-s running around thinking they're awesome just because they use it. I'm really surprised that most people voted yes.

I think this is good because now many people will stop focusing on BR's and start paying attention to other weapons and become better at using those other weapons. However most players will be at a disadvantage because most people use BR's.

GRUNT BUD!!!!!

Ok well lets think of it this way in all the battle rifle 36 shot in each clip with 4 clips thats 144 shots in all. It takes four bursts to kill brutes, sometimes more and one to kill a grunt. That meens you could only kill a total of either 12 brutes or less or 48 grunts. If you get into a larger scale fire fight in campaighn ur screwed and in firefight ur screwed because of the over whelming amounts of people. On the other hand you could have a pistol wich if it truely is like the one in haloCE you could kill a brute with two shots and have 120 amo on back up thats 60 brutes or 120 if your a good marksmen. The only reason you want your stupid -blam!- rifle is because in matchmaking you usually spawn with one and there is an abundance of them on the map that your playing. Trying to play campaighn with a BR however is acually extreemly anoying at time because of the scarecity of amo there can be. Immagine if ammo is hard tof ind in the campain and you were just finishing a patroll or two of 3 brutes and a cople of gruntsyou may have only a half or even a forth of you ammo left but with the magnum you would have barly made a dent in the ammo supply. There is your full in depth explination of why the magnum/ automag will be better suited for ODST's campain and firefight modes than the BR

As a great man has said before "..." That is where the truth lies my friends

I'm not Happy about it, but I don't mind, I'm impartial to the removal the BR, It proves usless unless there are hundreds of dead marines, or ammo cases, laying around. I mean it removes the armor and everything, but the Plasma Pistol is more effective.
