What the hell is a signature?

Ok, so in halo CE it had a badass 60 round magazine. Then it wasnt in Halo 2. Then, in Halo 3, it only had 32 rounds per magazine. And the damage was so low that is almost bounced of a grunt, also the range and accuracy is awefull. Why cant Bungie make an assult rifle more accurate and have more damage?

Yeah, we still believe in all the things that we stood by before.
I know, to everything we've seen here, maybe even more.
I know we're not the only ones and we were not the first.
And unapologetically we stand behind each word.

Because they had to go and balance their weapons. And by doing this ruin everything.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Have you played Reach?

The Assault Rifle is back to it's former glory. Especially in the sound department.

- Dragon Ball/Z/GT and it's merchandise are awesome.
- All "abriged" parodies are hilarious.

True.

Canonically, they are all different models.

The MA5B has more rounds in the mag (ignoring the fact of how the hell it fits 60 rounds in that small magazine), but it's accuracry is laughable.

The MA5C has less rounds, is more accurate, and a few other changes.

The MA37, seen in reach, is just an army name or varient of the MA5C.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Yeah, it's a lot better in Reach. I liked it in Halo 3, though, too. I didn't think it was too bad. It balanced things, which is reasonable.

if it was any more damaging or accurate in H3 there would be no SMG or BR. And in reach it fits the close to mid range role perfectly, I love it, its on my nameplate.

Halo is one of the most important part of my life.

In Halo CE it was good.
In Halo 3 was very balanced.
On Reach Its Awsome!

It's better in Reach. I'll give the game that much.

Lets Boogie

How can you guys say the MA37 (halo reach AR) was a great Weapon?

Its the worst AR to date.

The Rifle takes 18 bullets to kill a shielded spartan in multiplayer, and that is if every bullet hits.

The MA37 main advantage over the MA5C (halo 3 AR) is that it is more accurate when you burst fire.

The gun also shoots slower then the MA5C, but this isn't always an advantage, especially in close quarter combat when your trying to kill your enemy in a fast way.

But the sad thing is that the gun does less damage then the MA5C. The MA5C was already a watered down version of the MA5B, but it still was able to kill a spartan in 16 bullets, while the MA37 can kill in 18.

This does suck in the campaign. I couldn't even kill a shielded elite on the heroic level using 1 mag of the MA37. Besides what is the point of it being a little more accurate when you waste more rounds and take a longer period to kill your enemy because the rounds are weaker?

The MA5B was the best AR, MA5C is second, and unfortunately the MA37 is a piece of crap.
