dying is your latest fashion..

Alright, from what i've heard from others (i don't usually roam around these forums too much these days) is that there is going to be a BR in reach.. If that is true, than i have an idea.

Alright, well. In my opinion one of the biggest flaws of halo 3 is the BR's rate of fire.. It's just a tad bit too slow. Thus making it, combined with the shot registration, seem like it takes ages to kill someone with a default BR.

So, what if we upped the ROF? It would still take 4 shots to kill someone, but you could do it a little faster, making the skill gap come back into play. Meaning you would need first shot, and out-br's would be more impressive.

Now again, i do not know if there is going to be a BR in Reach, so if not.. then this thread is basically worthless, and can be locked if the mods please..

So, discuss.. yes? no? ... i don't care because i don't use the BR?

throwning snowballs at cars is like doing a bell ditch. The end result is basically the same: sprinting away from the large man exiting his car who yells profanities, hiding behind a house, and watching as his car patrols the street, waiting to murder you.

Asking the flood for dating advice is like you going up to a bunch of starving Africans and debating the pros and cons of the bacon roll vs the double cheeseburger.

Some one who stands for nothing shall fall for everything.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Considering the BR is one of the most overused weapons in the game because it is the BEST weapon in the game? I don't think it is too slow, might need a slight reduction in fire rate though :P

alright.. it's not going to be stronger.. And im not saying make it automatic.. Just make it shoot a smidge faster.. like the H2 BR

At least make it be able to beat an AR at mid range like it should be able to....

If we are to believe that the leak is legit (which it certainly looked, and judging from the amount of bans flying around I think its safe to say) as of right now the Reach BR has a 12 round clip and is single shot. So, I'm sure the ROF is faster, but it probably takes more shots to kill (I'm betting it'll be a 5-6 shot kill).

Yes, let's make the battle rifle even faster, so you don't need any other weapons at all anymore, BR will just beat everything!

Why do you think it's slow, if it only takes 4 headshots to kill an enemy with it? Any faster and it will be WAY too overpowered. Now, if you had said a silencer and enhanced scoping system, you would have had my attention.

If "IT" is real, the br has changed a ton as we know it.

  • 11.09.2009 12:13 PM PDT

Most kills in the world with the Storm rifle in halo 4, the Plasma Repeater in halo reach, and the Plasma rifle in halo 3.

The point of the Battle Rifles aim was to prevent enemies coming at midrange, but if they get the first shot it can be hard to kill them first.

yeah, i know. I failed to get host, and it's on default settings.

Are you serious? If anything the ROF is way to high! The original BR was a single shot and that's how it should have stayed! YOU FAIL

What's with all of these stupid ideas everywhere here?

How would that improve gameplay at all? it would just add some extra "zazz".

but you apparently don't understand, or notice. How often do you get three shots into someone only to have them put their head down, and munch on your turtle like bullets? You shouldn't be able to get shot while in the middle of the open, and live simply by running away.

And it wont make the BR overpowered, it will make it work, which people are afraid of. I don't understand how you can get first shot, hit all of your shots, and still die simply because of two things. The shot registration, and the ROF.

There's no such thing as first shot anymore.. I guess if you get first 2 shots, it would count as first shot. But.. that's not easy to do in a 1v1 situation..

Way to have an intelligent discussion. Just telling me i fail for stating my opinion when you just did the same thing?

Yes, your thread is not worth an intelligent conversation. You know the current BR has a 3 shot fire right? And you want to increase the ROF even more with a 3 shot burst? Your an idiot and your logic is weak.

Give me one good reason why you feel this isn't worth an intelligent conversation? Is it because it is about something you don't like? alright.. Lets talk about creating warthogs that shoot lazers out of the turret.. or wait! how about a sword that has plasma leaking off of it, so you can just fling plasma at people, and kill them like that?

God this websites ignorance is so insane.. Just because someone has a different opinion than you, doesn't mean it's worth nothing.

and what the hell did that 3 shot burst thing have to do with anything? i know it's a 3 shot burst. Did you ever play Halo CE?

(no im not a CE pistol fanboy. I just like balanced gameplay.) But, if you got shot you were forced to shoot back, and battle. You couldn't just turn around and run away.. Well you could, but more often than not, you would die. Now in H3, if you get shot you have all the time in the world to just prance away like a damn reindeer. Which i can understand, Bungie would do that for some of the newer players, who can't shoot and want to run away to get their sheilds back.

But Bungie, shouldn't only care about their "newer players". Maybe, to make everyone happy, including elitists like you, they can just set it so you can change it in a settings menu or something. The player can customize it to the player's preference, instead of it being just set one way. Which is what most arguments about this game is from, Something being set to cater one specific "group" of players. (social or hardcore gamers)

Sound reasonable, Oh mighty one?
