I cant' aim, and I need a weapon that can kill in 6 bullet + melee with a crazy bullet magnetism and a reticle as big as half of my hand. I can't outBR someone and I get my ass handed to me on H3.


fixed.
You don't even have a gamertag....

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

Yes, I'm pretty sure we need a pumped up P90 to kill people fast like in Halo 2 and 3.

I'm going to buy it because I want to try it out. The BR isn't the only weapon in the game.

That's because they had never seen the BR before and therefore wouldn't miss it.
I'm fine without the BR, though.

If people don't buy ODST because there's no BRs, then that will be sad, I just hope they'll be back in Reach, saying that it's supposed to be like that is also retarded. It's just a weapon. Get over it.

I hope they don't. I want my 60 round AR and pistol back by my side.

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.”

The inclusion of the BR cheapened the gameplay of Halo for me.

At least the Halo CE pistol couldn't get a triple kill with a single trigger pull.

I like to derp and stuff. I have a YouTube channel~

Derp

That's because the BR didn't exist back then.....
Oh it did. Long, long time before Halo 2.

It could fire 3 rounds in a 2 second period. The BR takes 4 in a 3 1/2 second period. Pistol is better.

I'm gonna miss all of those headshots with the BR but I think the pistol kind of replaced it in ODST.

A great quote from every great action movie ever... EVER!

I just like the accuracy that you can't get with the Assault Rifle, but your right! the days of mowing down elites and picking off grunts are gone... forever! at least until Reach I suppose.

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

The BR renders all other weapons pretty much useless. It kills the variety that halo is all about. Honestly, I think it's a shame that the BR's only gone for campaign.

  • 08.14.2009 9:15 AM PDT

I was a little mad because the didn't add it in. They have the Carbine but not the BR? Then again, things could be worst.

  • 08.14.2009 9:26 AM PDT

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Ever since Halo 2 the BR has become a very important part of the Halo universe, but only because some noobs in the first Halo decided to band together against the pistol because "OH NOOZZ IT OVRPWRD!!!" Practically half the reason I am buying this is because there is no BR and frankly I hope theres no BR in Reach either I would like to go back to the way Halo was meant to be. Ar and pistol.


The way Halo was "meant to be" is how Bungie made it.And with great success as we can see.I've always felt that the Halo CE pistol became the Halo 2 and Halo 3 BR. So if ODST has a pistol and no BR it's just and older form of halo I'm playing and no big deal.

In the end it your opinion on how Halo is supposed to be is no better or worse than someone who thinks differently.

It's just a gun.

It's just a game.

I agree. Halo has become boring with the BR over-use. I'm glad to see there is no BR being forced on to us.

I hate it when people say that. You aren't supporting a fact by doing so.

Rofl.

Anyway who cares what weapons it has as long as they work and are fun to use and the gameplay is balanced.

That's because we didn't know what we were missing.

Actually, I think people are making a bigger deal about saying "I like it because there is no BR." than the people saying "I hate because there is no BR."

Seriously, only the true fans will buy the game because it has HALO written on the cover and it is produced by Bungie. Not because there is/isn't a BR.


Win. The BR is a good weapon, and my favorite most used weapon. The CE Pistol basically the same thing. And to all the people who say, "Carbine will replace BR", then people who hate the BR will hate the Carbine too because it's basically the same thing. Also, it's still in MM, so yay, it's still there.

Sure the BR is very good weapon, but sometimes, we gotta put the present away and remind ourselfs of the past (the M6D)

I admit, I love the Battle Rifle. But just because it isn't in the game doesn't mean that I won't purchase it. I'm with Bungie, in that ODST wouldn't have that ODST feel with the Battle Rifle. It's loud, and quite large.

Also, Halo 2 didn't have the Assault Rifle, but not the Battle Rifle.

Does it really matter if somebody isn't great with a BR? maybe YOU'RE the noob for not knowing how to use any other weapon.

Halo 2 did have the battle rifle. That was when it was first introduced to players, I think.
