Subject: Carbine vs Needler Rifle ?

Needle Rifle


This is because the Needle Rifle is more precise and has a mechanic (supercombine) that not only sets it apart but also contributes to its special effectiveness.

The Carbine was good but pretty much a joke of a weapon by comparison, especially when you consider its inbalance with the BR.

PSR = (((K+A)/D)*Win%)*120
The average player's PSR = 100

Well, then you probably should have said the Needle Rifle dumbass.

Boltshot = mini shotgun

I love both, but I tend to use the needle rifle more often in Reach than I use the carbine in Halo 3(DMRs are always taken).

I do miss the Carbine, but I prefer the Needle Rifle.

"Less accurate" isn't correct. Just because you're aiming is off doesn't mean the gun is less accurate.

Also you forgot the main reason one would use it, it shoots much faster than the needle rifle. -> not inferior in this way now is it kid?

Because you don't seem like the brightest bunny, let me put it in easier words.
By the time your "3 kill/clip" gun has shot someone half-shield, they will already have killed you with their carbine.

Needle Rifle has 3 kills per clip. Plus, Carbine has a shorter range and less accuracy. Therefore, the Carbine is inferior in every way.

Carbine, only reach fanboys who never used the carbine would say otherwise.
The Halo 2 carbine was a beast.

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

You think the Halo 2 Carbine was cool? You should play Halo 2 Vista and use it. It's fully semi-auto. If you can press RT fast, then it shoots that fast. There was no speed restriction on the weapon.
