The BR takes no skill to use. Aim & Shoot.

It's too powerfull and too usefull at every range that it makes all other weapons in the game pointless.

The BR either needs to stay out of Reach or be compleatly re-made into the rifle it was meant to be not the weapon of God.

The game is based on the book Fall of Reach in said book the gun is still being tested/developed and the only time a BR is actually mentioned is when they're in the sewers and find the gun/s in a sort of suitcase. Based on that and the fact bungie sticks to can(n?)on the BR will not be in Reach for the majority of the game and my personal hope is that it won't be in the game at all.

Note: To all who try and flame me I won't be coming back here as ive said what I have to say so don't bother whining to me.

He speaketh the truth.

Yesh he doth.

Wrong, the Br takes more skill to use than most weapons in Halo. If you want to simplify it like you did, "Aim and shoot" is what you do with every weapon, it's the amount of aiming skill you have that matters. I think you must be mixing up CQC weapons with the Br.

It's powerful yes, and versatile at almost all ranges, yes, however, there is a weapon at every range that tops the Br, ar at close range, Rockets at medium, and Sniper at long. Your argument is weak.

There is no reason to remake the Br, although I have no doubt Bungie will due to all these people crying about something they can't comprehend. It's in no way as powerful as you'd like to think. Refer back to my second paragraph for the first reason. Second would be the spread. The Br spread hinders the Br greatly at long ranges. It's fine as is, no need to changed it.

If you're going to attempt to bring canon into the argument, at least get it right. The Br has been around since Harvest, so bringing it in for the Reach Campaign would it perfectly. As for the MP, canon holds no ground there, although that's irrelevant since the Br belongs in the canon anyway.
