Subject: Please bring back the Pre-Halo 2 BR

If any of you have seen the videos on the Halo 2 Limited Edition extras disk, it shows a couple videos of the halo 2 development, and from what i saw, it showed the BR (still a work in progress at that time) was a single shot, semi-automatic weapon.

Idk about anyone else, but the inconsistency of having a br, that misses routine shots for some reason, does not appeal to me. It seems that having a more consistent BR, in which the player who is actually better at Br'ing wins a BR fight, would be generally, more accepted.

if any of you have played COD4 (which i hate), the gun would handle much like the G3, but in a BR form...

If i find you online (if i ever GET xbox live) please note i'm a cop, and if i catch you speeding, i will pull you over and i will arrest you. oh wait, you have a gun too...

But with 36 bullets per magazine too.

As for fire mode, keep burst so that when you hold down the button it shoots a burst, but when you tap it, it shoots one bullet.

burst firing rate: about 750rpm so you actually still CAN single shot

How to spell "space"?

S-P-ACE! SPACE!

That was the concept gun for the BR. I'm pretty sure it evolved into the Carbine.

Trolls are insecure about their own pathetic lives that they act cool behind a keyboard.

I prefer an M16 than a G3.
Regular BR wins.

If you want single shots, use the pistol.
Dual Pistols beat a BR.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Halo 2 magnums maybe.

Pretty sure that was just the carbine with a different model/sound....
