it is like a experinced player will blow a noob out the water with a br

I personly hate a br i would rather a plasma pistol i am normaly a pretty good halo 3 player but when i play for example BR on so and so map i will loose most likely


in other words you cant use the br (so start hateing it) and prefer to use other wepons like the ar.

im ok with that, if you dont like the br im okay with that just veto for your life when you see team brs

If everyone spawns with a BR there is no problem. Are you complaining that skilled players own the less skilled players? BLASPHEMY! If everyone starts with the same weapon, it's fair game.

If you are referring to me then no, I am not complaining about skilled players owning the less skilled players (that is how it should be). My problem is that the BR is the only weapon ever used; if Bungie intended for people to only use the BR then they would not have made the other weapons like the needler or the plasma pistol. As for everyone starting with the BR, that is fair but don't you think it cuts down on variety a little bit? If you want to play a playlist dedicated to a lot of BR starting games then go play MLG.

maybe its becuse halo 3 has been out for a long time and alot of people have gone on to being pros (and so the age of the br starts)

this means pros are using there brs and beginers never could counter the br without using br or carbine (becuase they never had the chance of developing a way to counter the br)

so now the pros chose to use the br and the beginners never have the chance to develop so are forced to the br.

but now the beginners are anoyed there not as good with the br and want the br to disapear

and so starts the age of the ar vs br war (they are both good but i fear the war will never end)

Signatures are for squares.

The BR isn't even overpowerd, I don't remember there being this issue when Halo 2 was out, and the BR was stronger then.

AR/SMG/Shotgun/mauler/Spiker/Plasma Rifle/Flame Thrower=close Range
BR/Carbine/Needler/magnum=mid Range
Sniper/Beam Rifle=Long Range
Rockets/Laser/misslepod/Turret/Plasma pistol=Anti Vehicle.

Everything looks fine to me, if anything, there is too many Close range weapons.

Because it's so annoying how the only effective weapon is the BR, I detest using it yet I have to unless I want to die all the time.

But there were less of them, I can remember spending a long time looking for one, whereas in Halo 3 you turn the corner and there one is.

So what's the issue?

In Halo 2, if there was only 2 BRs, if 1 team had them both, you were stuck with an SMG. To fix that Bungie made them appear more often, so that doesn't happen.

yep this is the true problem

and it has been caused by the age of the br but i think maybe bungie will give into the br vs ar war and balance the amount on the maps

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

There is no BR vs AR war, they are totally different weapons, it's like comparing the sniper and rockets. If you believe that i'm wrong then you don't understand halo correctly.

Argue if you want but i have no time to bicker with fools.

The issue is that we shouldn't have to use a few select weapons in order to effectively get a kill.
