I'm new to competitive Halo and Halo itself (Reach being my first video game ever actually). Message me if you want to play;

Reach: MLG, Arena, Doubles, BTB and customs.
Halo 3: Ranked MM and customs.

Also I have every Halo title and all of its DLC on the Xbox 360.

I actually don't see how the DMR is better. BR is a 4-shot, DMR is 5. I agree that the random spread is annoying, but I just don't see how you could see the DMR as significantly better.


4 shot if all your 12 bullets hit.

More often than not, it will take 5-6 burst to kill.

DMR takes four shots with bullet bleed through.

Halo 3 was a lot more competitive. AAs, bloom and a bigger reticle/hitbox is what makes Reach suck for competitive. Even without AA and bloom, the bigger reticle makes things a hell of a lot more easier then they should be.

We're discussing the competitive end of Halo. MLG does not include ARs.

Well, this is true. The same applies to every weapon though; it's only a kill if every shot hits. The random spread on the BR could potentially screw you over, but that was pretty rare, to be honest.

Your 'beliefs' mean less than dick to me.

The BR had no range. The DMR does.

Erm.....the BR still has range, it just requires you to lead your shots more because it isn't hitscan.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

Reach- DMR fest.

And ARs are used in H3 because they are able to do something useful. DMRs are used for every situation.

Meh, it was alright I guess. But I still feel halo 3 was far more competetive...

The ranks in reach don't count for ****. obviously its just there to make noobs feel "special"


This, my friend thinks he's better than me, just because his rank is a little higer.
