Just tap the trigger, it makes the gun more accurate.

Haha.

Anyways, SMGs with an extremely high ROF usually only have full automatic. However, I believe the Battle Rifle should have some sort of selector switch much like the M-16A1. Full Automatic, Burst, and Single shot. It just makes a firearm easier to control.

An ROF selector would be nice, but it wouldn't be very useful, why would you switch SMG's to semi-auto, though they aren't effective at all at the range in which you would want to use the semi-auto. It would make a lot more sense (plus the fact that guns such as the SMG's are probably do almost no damage if you only hit them with one bullet).

If you want three round burst or single shots, get the battle rifle. Full Auto, get the smg.

It would also shoot to slow to be effetive.

Can't you just shoot in bursts without a shot selector? It really isn't that hard.

When you are zoomed in with the BR it is single shot. When you not zoomed in it's 3 round burst.

You have to use burst fire to keep the SMG accurate anyway, just firing off at full auto bones your accuracy 7 ways from sunday!

probably because it aint accurate, allthough maybee they will have something on your profile like when you pick up a battle rifle do you want single or tripple shots unzoomed and tripple or single zoomed and on an SMG do you want the stock extended or retracted and that affects your accuracy and dual wielding, plus whatever options might be possible on other weapons.

wow, im speechless.

i cant say wat wont or will be in h2 but u sure are optimistic. this game is already huge, bigger then anyother game the system has seen, its dubtful ur profile will be that customizable. and as far as the single shot when zoomed and triple burst unzoomed, that isnt changable, think of all the lag it would cause to have everyone shooting the exact same guns differently

The same lag would be caused if you were in scope as scoping only changes your point of view and how you fire. And dont pop my little buuble of hopefullnes about the profile I can dream can't I ?

If you want to continue bickering you can take it back to the pistol thread as i do not want to burden other threads with your reading dissabilities, ill thought comebacks and general stupidity.
