I don't understand why people keep asking other people if they are a sugary substance used to spread on bagels and toast.

Your logic of BR promoting camping is illogical. I see way more camping in AR starts than BR starts.

It basically comes down to how skilled you are. If you are below, say, level 40 then you are not likely to be skilled at BRs. People above will be reasonably talented. This is where the problem arises. When people are skilled with power weapons (Rockets, sniper, sword, shotgun) the assault rifle is rendered COMPLETELY USELESS as it has a terrible range so you would be sniped or rocketed before getting close and it needs a beat down to get a quick kill so you would just be sworded or shotgunned if you came near. This is why the BR is sooooo much better (IF you can use them) at higher levels as it is the only weapon which counters power weapons. It gives you a sporting chance against other skilled players who have a weapon advantage against you. I find it incredibly funny that the only people that complain about the BR being overpowered are the people who can't use them and prefer to run in a straight line spraying and praying and hoping to get near enough to beat the enemy down.

So really.....IT IS NOT ABOUT THE BR AND AR, IT IS ABOUT PEOPLE BEING MORE SKILLED AT THE GAME IN GENERAL THAN OTHERS. (A General would easily beat a colonel when they both have ARs or if they both had any other weapon for that matter.)

This is a very interesting posting.
And I really like your logic on basically how you feel about these weapons.
You probably could and are making a strong argument with this topic

I don't think there is anything wrong with camping, but I do think the BR could be reimagined into Halo 2 pistol/Halo 3 Beta Carbine type weapon, with maybe eight or nine shot kills and you could fire it as fast as the H2 pistol.

This thread is extremely selfish. If you don't like the BR then why not think of a solution that everyone will like. Your proposals would would be detrimental to the people who play the game the most and favor the players who play halo the least. Why not just ask that the BR is not as prevalent in matchmaking or removed from Bungie MM altogether (not from the game). MLG players were content to play customs for the first 3 months. What you are asking is to take that away from them.

If the BR is removed then people will not want to buy the game and the community will suffer. There should be options for everybody not just one group of people. There should be playlists and weapons for the recreational player as well as the hardcore players. They could also make the BR nerfed in matchmaking and then allow for it to be more accurate, faster, and better in custom settings. I believe everyone would like this.

br is not overpowered and thats why you are anoyed

yes its a 4 shot wepon to the head but most people cant get 4 quick and acurate shots

so the real reason your anoyed is becuse you cant get alot of good 4 shots but people can on you


i know the br anoyes me sometimes but the burst helps becuse it stops any long ranged 4 shots from happening


conclution: your in johnsons army now and if you cant handle takeing on those dume dinos get the hell out of here
*freek out*
what you still doing here
