It takes away the point of multiple guns. Weapons need to be unique. The BR/Carbine work good in the same game. I find the BR better at long range because 3 round burst makes headshots easier but the Carbine is better in close range because of its faster rate of fire. See the different rates of fire allow the weapons to have different functions Select fire would also allows one weapon to perform more jobs than it should. A singleshot BR would be much better in close range, just look at the carbine now. Select fire would -blam!- this game up so bad.
No, it does not.
If an Assault rifle had an option for a rocket laucher, or a sniper rifle had an option for some sort of "spread shot" similar to shotguns, THAT would take away the point of multiple guns.
This, however, would only take away the unneeded weapons that have tiny changes in them, like the carbine and the BR. The carbine may have a slightly faster rate of fire, but it still deals about the same damage, accuracy, and power of a BR.
Good job reading half of my post. The BR would be way to effective that way. The Carbine isn't unneeded it works because it has different abilities than the BR. If the BR could fire single shot that would make it better for close quarters and making it unbalanced because know it is good at close, mid and long range. Your idea throws the balance of Halo in a dumpster and -blam!-s on it.
