Subject: The Reach forum never ceases to amaze me.

If you are reffering to me, I actually have a problem with thinking TO MUCH.

So Reach, Tell me why the DMR takes more skill then the AR that needs an entire clip to kill and gets outgunned by DMR in close range.

Maybe if the AR did what it was supposed to do and not suck at close range then MAYBE the DMR would tske more "skill".

Does the reach forum even understand skill? All i hear is skill gap, skill gap, skill gap.

How about listing the varieties of skills for me?

Argue, call me bad, do WHATEVER it takes to make you "feel" better, but hell is this what the Halo community has become?

A bunch of flaming, brainwashed miscreants? For shame.

This about the games not the forums. Not even... its about you raging the AR and DMR.

Why would a begginer use a crap weapon when he starts with a better weapon?


Because the AR is easier to use.

Also, you use the AR in close quarters. It's not that hard to understand. It's meant for that.

Its about my dissapointment in the community really.

It is really hard to enjoy these forums anymore, with the exception of the flood.

Easier to hit people with for a begginer I suppose, but your hardly going to get any kills.

As a begginer I'd stop using it when i notice how weak and unreliable it is.

Hell even difficulty sleeping.

But hell whats my word worth here?

Okay then lets put that aside and say this instead.

What IF someone likes the AR and would like that to be a TOD?

No matter how good they get, they will get out DMR'd by any amatuer.

Who cares? I use whatever I have at the time, whether it's a DMR, AR or a goddamn Plasma Pistol, I will use it to get kills.

But I really can't stand AR starts whatsoever.

  • 04.12.2012 1:56 PM PDT

Because the AR doesnt take skill.

its not even used like a gun most of the time, its more like a club.


As stupid as you may think that sounds its true.

AR has ridiculous bullet magnetism that's why. Just point in their general direction and shoot.

Keep in mind I'm not a mindless AR rusher, I pulse it and snipe people with it, but it still has a ridiculous amount of magnetism.

  • 04.12.2012 2:48 PM PDT

All the grammar -blam!-s in here made me facepalm... Hard.


Also as others have said the AR takes a lower amount of skill than the DMR, though it still does take skill. Also a common misconception is that the AR is worthless when in reality it is great at lowering shields and letting a DMR user take the headshot. I guess people forget that, since they're too busy worrying about their own pointless K/D ratio no one cares about, instead of worrying about the team.

I want to be able to do more than lower shields.

I want to be able to provide cover and support fire for my teamates.

AR won't let me do that.

spiral out

To get a kill with a DMR you have to hit at least 5 shots. You actually have to keep your aim on target and time your shots. With an AR you just hold down the trigger and let aim assist do the work. If they made the AR able to kill as fast as a 5 shot w/ a DMR, then why would anyone use the DMR if the AR is easier to use and can kill just as fast?

TL;DR : AR is easier to hit all your shots w/ so it needs to be weaker. DMR requires better aim.

AR is limited to melee range + 3 feet.

DMR is limited to ... well.... excluding btb maps.. their range is the entire map lol.

Yeah skill gap really is the main difference. It would be ridiculous to see mlg with AR's.

I woke up one to find my self in a river of honey. Turns out Osama Bin Laden was right.

I actually find the DMR easier to use than an Assault Rifle.

This forum is amazing sometimes.

And you're one of the many reasons.

By your terribad logic, the gun that took the most skill in Halo 3 was the Plasma Pistol when in fact that couldn't be further from the truth. Getting a kill with a massively underpowered weapon like, for example, the AR in Reach has NOTHING to do with your skill. It is entirely down to your opponents lack of skill.

Now that we've got the "it takes super awesome l33t skillz because it's an underpowered piece of crap" logical fallacy out of the way. Using the AR takes such a small amount of "skill" that it may as well take none. You can spray in the general direction of another player and score hits. Very little aiming is required.

The DMR?

Well this explains why the DMR takes many multitudes more skill.

Pretty much.

Most people here either complain about the game, insult others statistics, or fight over how they are better than other players.
