god damnit i don't want it to be full auto i want it to be better than the pistol and better than the AR in certain ways and the burst to be good and not bad as in it should be able to kill something with burst and in the heat of battle who the hell cares about accuracy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ive watched the H2 E3 demo the time distance between bursts is about (.3) seconds you have to be damn fast to shoot sum 1 in bitween that time
more like .5 but the same thing applies

Ok, let's put it this way. This pistol isn't as good as it wa before, so the battle rifle will be used more often. Single shot is good for sniping. But burst is good for taking out someone quick. Whoever said you don't need burst on a grunt is wrong. You honestly think you're good enough to zoom in and get a headshot on a grunt every time? They move quite a bit. So burst is good to take him out quick. Fully auto is great for suppresive fire/spray-n-pray. If you've got 10 or so grunts packed in a room SMG's will really shine. But with 2 or 3, the burst would be a better use of ammo.

Please... use punctuation. Anyways, the burst mode will be great and accurate for when you are not so close, but when you are... just take out your SMG kick some ass. =D

I am no talkin about using zoom on the grunts i debating which is better 3 shot or single unzoomed, and unzoomed 1 shot would be better use of ammo and time

Weapons replaced? Who told you that? I know Bungie didn't. Don't assume as such. However the burst thing can be an issue for some, but I doubt it will interfere too much. (and the bursdt actually does more damage than a single pistol shot, it just doesn't seem that way because people are missing in their bursts and hitting their targets everywhere)

Which is why it is better to use single shots because it is more accurate

5PM? 3AM? Where are you guys? I'm in the sunshine state - Florida! And single shot would be more accurate how? All you have to do is aim and shoot, same with burst. If you can kill a grunt in a single shot on the first shot, then the burst shouldn't be a problem. If you can't, then the burst is much better. For those of us who aren't as talented as some, the burst will be much appreciated.

Oh, so you made up crappy cliche insults to try and show that I have no life. I get it now! I wasn't insulting anybody, just giving you a hint that if you use punctuation people will take you more seriously.

Me a f-ing retard? I have yet to see an intelligent post from you yet. So don't even try to call me a retard. (if this flame was directed at someone else, then my bad. But Bungie never said the MA5B or the M6D was being replaced. Ever.)

The burst wont be a problem for me. The only way to truly do well with the AR was to tap and fire bursts anyway. I can kill anyone with a AR versus someone who also has a AR because they go full auto and half their shots miss while I tap my trigger and in three seconds there dead. And Hikaru let's not go into this again just becasue I read into what Bungie says about the Battle Rifle in a different way than you do. When Bungie says there adding layers of nuances (as seen in your sig) I think there talking about the new versions of the old guns by adding scopes and changing them and making them more useful however that's just how I look at them.

I look at other things to. Now let's drop the debate. In all honesty none of us knows -blam!- about Halo 2 and what weapons are going to make it into the final mold. Also I go for direct wording from Bungie and the occasional hint. Unless they directly say something is or is not returning, I do not guess that it has disappeared until proof from the game's source is given.

Flaming Nija X, same here. I love the MA5B.
