Subject: Anniversary Gametype Assault Rifle SUCKS

It is like they don't want us using it, i remember once in a Halo 3 trailer, bungie said that they wanted the assault rifle to be good so people didn't need to pick up other weapons to replace. 343 obviously don't agree

Well this isn't Halo 3... And their is no point in using the AR with the pistol, only if you run out of bullets with your pistol in the middle of a battle and have to finish the enemy off.

There is not one game where you have to use it. You either spawn with AR/Magnum or AR/DMR (or DMR/Magnum). Why, with those good spawning weapons, would you use the AR?

I have tried on only a few occasions where I was ambushing somebody in CQC and in both cases the enemy had time to turn around and kill me with whatever headshot weapon they had before the AR even broke their shields. You don't need it, so why complain? It's easier to headshot everybody with your other given weapons.

I play for fun and armory completion. :)

So use the pistol...

Please...stop getting butthurt when I noscope you from the passenger seat of the vehicle I'm riding in :D

Pistol still isn't stable so long as there is bloom. It's still stupid to pace shots and miss while enemies spam and still get the kill most of the time. RoF needs reduced some, as it's still too fast.

that's because the needler is a beast in the right hands

Why would you use the Assist Rifle when you start with a Magnum? Spray and Praying people crack me up in the anniversary playlists.
