My Level. Get on it.

Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

Because it shouldn't be a starting weapon. DMR/BR Starts are better in every way.

Boltshot = mini shotgun

Because it's next to completely useless outside of melee range.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

Every other gun trumps it easily. Spawning with a useless weapon would make you rage too.

Prolonged exposure to this forum is bad for your health.

Because pretty much everyone screamed and whined at the "No skill noobs who can't aim" when a guy with an AR killed him, instead of using a DMR. So when the TU came out it just buffed any and all precision weapons to the point that any automatic weapon became useless.


They were already useless.

the gun pointed at the head of the universe

It is a lord among weapons. A beautiful piece of exquisite machinery; although it doesn't equal the MA5B, it far outstrips the MA5C, which sounded like a piece of cardboard stuck in the spokes of a childs bike.

Because the Assault Rifle is a dragon spitting fiery death, smoke issuing from its nostrils.

The MA37 Assault Rifle.

Thanks for proving its worthlessness.

It's Hazard Time

Because in every game it's been progressively getting worse, it's not a weapon, it's a toy!
You'll kill people faster with your bare hands, or a sidearm, or a traffic cone, or anything else then the AR. If a wepon sucks, people will hate it, if it's easy to use and OP, people will love it (DMR/BR/sniper).

Now that 343i is making the new Halo, for the first time ever there is a slight chance that we'll see an automatic weapon that can kill people, and a game where mid-long range weapons is not the only ones you'll ever use since all other are horribly unbalanced.

because no one has skill and desert it thinking its a terrible weapon. maybe go play halo 2 SMG replaces AR

  • 01.24.2012 8:03 PM PDT

Because it's crappy in Reach. Was badass in CE.

Whether you say you can or you can't either way you're right
-Henry Ford

personally i like AR starts because its that much easier to kill with the dmr when your the only person who has one.

  • 01.24.2012 10:20 PM PDT

because its not pro enough for the 50-200 arena players and the 100 mlg players.

  • 01.24.2012 10:23 PM PDT

You're either first or you're last.

You'll never amount to anything, go back under your bridge.

I hate the assault rifle because it's basically useless. I don't even know how people manage to get a single kill with an entire magazine. I have a freaking negative K/D with it in arena olol.

Halo 'till I die!

Spartans HooaH!

The AR and PR do the same damage against shields. BUT the AR does almost double that damage against health.

Happiness is a warm gun

This is why

It has so much bulletmagnetism that you'd have to be a thumbless nitwit to NOT hit your target with it

Because its practically the worst weapon in the game, aside from the Plasma Repeater.

I beg to differ,Have you ever used the repeater in Firefight it becomes a W.M.D.

  • 01.25.2012 7:32 AM PDT

Its good when your facing dumbasses with the precision weapons.
