This is a potential problem with the battle rifle. Say you only have 5 rounds left in your battle rifle and you're trying to save ammo because your other weapon is empty. You come up on a group of grunts and engage your scope to save ammo because it fires single shots when zoomed. You fire and one of the grunts hits you, you zoom out, and instead of firing single shots you fire two three round bursts and all of you ammo is gone.

You could say the same thing about the sniper rifle in the original halo, but the sniper rifle is still good. And I am sure the BR will be too.

Grunts? Just melee them and snatch up a plasma pistol if you are that desperate.

I think with the battle rifle, you should have some way to choose if you want 3 round burst or single. like pressing down on the D pad or somthing.

Not to mention that that can happen to anything. It just happens that you should conserve ammo in both (all) of your guns.
