"Halo 4 will have lots of weapons, many of them are new, but we are bringing some loved wepons back too" Not sure how they said it officially, but that's kind the thing they said. Now do you see any wepon that is more loved than the BR? So I'll´bet 1562 credits on it that there will be.

There will be no BR in Halo CE

However, it is possibility for BR to come back in Halo 4 since armory section is likely to be near engine section and cryosleep section in FuD. However I have played Halo 3 myself, and I admit that I'm Lieutenant but it doesn't make my opinion invalid. IF any one uses skills, k/d and ranks as argument, don't bother... you will need to make arguments intelligently with evidence/proof plus thesis to make me to take your arguments seriously. If not, then you're labeled as tryhards and virtually useless to argue against thus will ignore the tryhards. My opinion is that BR is too overpowered, thus un-balancing everything in the matchmaking. I tried my best to combat against BR users but it was... futile.

However if they bring BR back, I would like to see that BR is re-tweaked to properly balance in the match making games. But I would accept DMR to come back again as well, since this gun is fine, it's just bloom is causing problems. It can be re-tweaked again as well. And, DMR aren't supposed to be anti-vehicle weapon, it's supposed to act like DMR= Designated Marksman Rifle, primarily designed to take out infantry in medium to long range. Destroying the vehicles is for rockets, spartan laser, etc.


"However I have played Halo 3 myself, and I admit that I'm Lieutenant but it doesn't make my opinion invalid. IF any one uses skills, k/d and ranks as argument, don't bother..."

Anyone who uses online matchmaking for a basis of 'Skill" is a tryhard. System link play is WAY different than online.
To everyon: Actually GO to a Tournament and understand why your online kills mean squat =)


"you will need to make arguments intelligently with evidence/proof plus thesis to make me to take your arguments seriously."
Whos trying to gain your approval? =S


"I tried my best to combat against BR users but it was... futile."
Thats cause you gotz no skillz. Lemme help you out with that:



How to effectively counter BR: H2/H3
1) Use BR back =) in the case of H2, try BxR
2) Sniper
3) Rocket
4) stay close quarter, use shotgun
5) Again close quarter, use sword.
6) Frag then magnum or BR.
7) lure them into a sticky
8) Duel Wield plasma rifle/SMG
9) Needler narrow hallway
10) Wield dual brute spikers
11) Brute shot
12) Powerups (Camo/OS)
13) close combat, Melee twice = Faster than 4 Br shots.
14) Brute hammer
15) Camping followed by whack in the back.

The best way to counter the Battle Rifle, is DONT BE A NOOB.
Example: Guy down a hallways is shooting BR at you. You gonna run at him with a shotgun? no. LOL. Move around the map and counter him with correct weapon. Lure him in close range by camping and pwn his BR with your shotty or sword.

no wonder your a lieutenant. and you think 4 shot BR is overpowered? Dont play CE multi. Ever. Your will prolly cry yourself to sleep after being 3 shotted by EVERYONE in this forum.

Your Pal,
Zero =)

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

It should be in Halo 4, but not CE.

Imagine a triangle. It's perfect, but a little plain. You take a chisel, and carve a small decorative symbol into it to make it a little more interesting. People like it, but it could use a little more.

So you then take a sledgehammer..

I'm not sure about the BR exactly, but Halo 4 should have some sort of mid range precision weapon. And...I'm not sure about CE. Although I shudder at not having a trusty precision rifle, it just wouldn't be the same with one.

I suspect llamas are secretly wizards. I <3 poptarts n' milk. I like me. Grimick is defined as: a logical parodox, the act of funnaling a potato down your throat, and a deliciously flavored muffin (with pecons and blueberries). Norway is the Swedish word for 'moron'. My sister has cancer, so i get to use handicap parking and cut small children in line at Disneyland.

"Don't eat doughnuts on thin ice."

"The pancake, my friend, has officially been flipped."

I would like BR burst with DMR bloom.

Well i know im off topic but even though bungie isn't making halo no more but 343 industries are but bungie failed when they made halo reach what happened to the official halo between halo 1 to 3 where absolutely great especialy halo 3 had the up to date graphics but halo reach went to the limit. Halo reach well okay they have great graphics but the most problems where the Replacement of the BR why the hell would you remove the best weapon plus the DMR is crap the br is great for long and short distances but the DMr goes all over the place until you get the hang of it but still that was better i hope 343 fix this at least by getting the br back and removing the DMR or at least keep both of them plus everyone i know has left halo reach after as few months as it wasn't fun as halo 3 use to be plus the ranks were useless if you see now only 1 or few has reached the highest rank after nearly a year only to make us soo like a geek to reach the highest rank i gave up till i reached general grade 4 still that was too much. all i see is the bad kids playing reach right now and more people are owning with the AR- assault rifle against the DMR. All im saying no br then no more halo for me or the other 100k + people in my youtube video that agreed. Plus im sticking to halo 3 till the end instead of the new halos if its going to be like

Wat?

Also, no. The BR had it's turn. it wasn't in CE, it won't be in Aniversary (I know I spelled it wrong :/), and I don't ever want to see it in Halo 4. It's done.

Also, I just read the full post and WTF are you smoking? Jeez, hallf that post was nigh-unintelligable.

It's Hazard Time

Sure, as long as they re-balance it so it's only good for mid-long range but sucks at close-mid...

The Halo 1 pistol eats the BR/DMR for breakfast, the thing could kill you in less than 2 seconds if you landed all headshots, when I first played Halo 1 online (for the PC) the thing was almost unbeatable at any range except for cross-map shootouts, where of course snipers won.

Bloom was one of the best things to happen to halo. The spread on the BR was all random, now you can control it.

But the BR doesn't belong in the CE Anniversary, and it won't be in it.

........... That is sad that you would say that. It is one of the many failures that Reach brought to Halo.

Well it would be nice to see the Battle Rifle again, but I don't mind if it's still the DMR. I'm buying CE for the campaign, not for the multiplayer.

Thats people's problem with it. Everybody uses, it has made the other weapons useless in comparison.

  • 06.20.2011 7:49 PM PDT

I think that the DMR is better than the BR, but 343 would be smart to put both in to please everybody.
