We've heard a lot of people say they want a battle rifle that can go semi-auto, full auto, and burst firing, but how would you do it? Which button on the controller would you use? (Don't forget it's going to be the 360 controller) It'd be neat if they could set it up so the middle xbox logo button was the fire selector, although that's probably not going to happen. What are your thoughts?

The middle button brings up the 360 Guide, you moron. Have you ever even seen a 360?

Yea and hes saying its a dumb idea because it brings up the guide, its not meant for gameplay. If they really wanted to (sounds like a bad idea anyways cause who really cares.... your never supposed to hold down the trigger on a automatic rifle (not smg) anyways so why need a button to help you) they could put if you hold X it switches firing modes, tapping it would still be reloading.

I like the idea of BR with different RoF. And seriously guys, chill. This isnt something to get worked up about.

Halo CE......(sigh) the good ol' days......

“Go, stranger, and to Lacedaemon tell that here, obeying her behests, we fell.”

why would people want it to have full auto. you have the smg for that, the battle rifle should be like a scalpel with a switch between 3 round burst and semi auto, thereby conserving ammo for lesser priority targets like grunts who dont really need three bullets to kill
