Subject: battle rifle not in halo: reach

the br is a boring gun. all it is is four head shots to get a kill. it can make using other weapons pointless. it can shoot too far across the maps. i dont think it will be in halo: reach. the br not being in halo 3: odst is a good sign of this.

before you flame, know that i am not that bad at the br. im just tired of using this weapon all of the time just to survive in the multiplayer.

i know i just made another thread about the br like the all the others but i wanted my thoughts known and not just buried under pages of text no one would pay attention too.

screw mlg and their br. ill ar there ass

I personally believe the BR should be in Reach, but not nearly as common. Also, players shouldn't spawn with such a good weapon.

Also, your topic may be closed. Mine (which was also about the BR) was closed.

Signatures are for squares.

There was a prototype of the BR present on Reach.

But if the M6D is in the game, the BR would be pointless.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Going by your same logic:

The AR not being in Halo 2 was a good sign of it not being in Halo 3. The Brute PR not being in Halo 3 was a good sign of it not being in ODST.

Hmmmmm. Your logic is flawed.

im just saying that bungies game design choice to not have the br in odst is a good indicator that it may not be in reach.

Actually not. They took the AR out of Halo 2 because they figured it was pointless with the SMG being there.
The brute PR isn't much different than the normal PR, so it really didn't matter that it wasn't in Halo 3.

I'm with the OP on this one. The BR is way too overpowered and it is borring to use. I can get kills with it extremely easy. I just don't use it very often because it gets extremely borring to me.

The BR was taken out of ODST because Bungie dosn't like it! If it is going to be in Reach I'm sure that it will have some major changes. (Single fire maybe?)

EDIT: And by the way. The AR from Halo CE still hasn't been in any other Halo games. The Halo CE AR and the Halo 3 AR are two completely different guns.

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

If BR stands for a Big Rump, then you are right... That's the PS3.

I'm not a fan of the br personally. I think it makes all the other weapons pointless. I would like it to go away so people are forced to pick up the other weapons and use a little more strategy than just running around 4 shotting people all the time it gets pretty dull and repetitive for me anyway.

Check out my youtube vids and subscribe plox :D

if you want a video rendered but arnt pro, message me :D

It wont be in there because only Sgt. Johnson had a prototype of it during that timeline. It wouldnt make sense for the story to have the BR in Reach.

I guess that means the carbine will be the MLG weapon. I can see the gamertags now, mY CaRbInE iZ 9sHoTz

Oh my God I'm glad Bungie doesn't listen to people like you too often. You say your good with the BR? Your stats would say otherwise. No offense, but you have no idea what it takes to make a competitive game or a fun game for that matter. You would rather spawn and get killed from medium-long range withoult being able to defend yourself? Makes no sense to me.

  • 10.01.2009 10:23 AM PDT

its was a prototype in the year 2525. the fall of reach takes place about 25 years later give or take. im sure by then there would have been an actual model in full production. even it thats true i dont want it in because of its boring, unbalancedness

His stats say otherwise because HE DOSN'T USE IT! Learn to read next time!
Oh and you wouldn't be killed everytime you spawn if the BR wasn't there. There aren't very many weapons that are that powerfull and easy to use.

  • 10.01.2009 10:27 AM PDT

Im pretty sure the BR was created to counter the sniper rifle, as soon as you take out the BR every one's going to use the carbine then u will have somthing else to complain about. Rather then remove it all together a beter alternitive would be to make it slightly weaker.

  • 10.01.2009 10:35 AM PDT

my stats say the br is my most used weapon. what makes you think i dont know what it takes to make fun and competitive gameplay? i never said that i would rather get killed by mid-long as soon as i spawn. you make no sense to me.
