you're an idiot. The AR takes just as much Skill to effectively kill someone as many other weapons do.

Also... the AR is just as realistic as the BR, Combine them so you can do stuff like bursts or full auto and you've got a friggin' M16A2 so what's your problem?

Why does a weapon in a game need to take "skill" to be there? Can't it just be a fun weapon? Isn't that the point of a game? To be fun?

My sentiments exactly.

LET THIS THREAD DIE! The topic starter knew nothing of which he spoke of. We all can agree on that. Now let this die.

lol... nice simple straight forward way to say it mate, wait I got to laugh again..lol. Jeeeeze wish i'd said it like that anyway, why not just have both the AR and BR then thats problem fixed why only have one main gun when you can have two; it would be more fun that way as well i'm sure a lot of people would agree with me. Friggin idiots like that don't have anything decent to say do they.

Hold down with plasma gun and shot off the shield from a elite,then snipe with your BR and kill him in 3 shoots.

Skills?

Nah,rather more boring gameplay... :S

people who talk about how much better Halo CE was than Halo 2 are RETARDS. The only reason that they seem to hate Halo 2 so much is because it takes alot more skill than Halo CE. They could get kills in Halo CE but now that the amount of skill required has gone up they suck so in their minds this means that Halo 2 sucks.

The AR = no skill Let me repeat the AR = NO SKILL!!!!!!!!!!

It was nothing but an overpowered SMG

The BR is a weapon that emphsises precision and accuracy. If you can't 4-shot someone than you suck at Halo 2.

So all I am saying is that if Bungie brings back the AR they need to make the Carbine alot more like the BR. by this I mean it needs to do away with the circle reticle and have a reticle that allows you to shoot like you do with the BR accuratly and quickly. And make it so you can effectivly 4-shot people with it.


I would treat you to an edifying and comprehensible answer enlightening you as to why you are so wrong, but seeing as you understand so little about the game, its predecessor, and the difference between them I'll not bother and just call you an idiot.

Don't be Hatin'. Just because you suck wit the AR. Halo is for everybody and all ages.
Not everybody knows how to snipe or sword fight. Halo has to be fun for everyone. Not just the hardcore headshot givers, sword swingers, and pistol poppers. Why shouldn't the noobs be able to have fun? And if you are the badass Halo player that you think are and if you have any kind skill you can take out a AR holding noob.


STOP -blam!-ING

STEP YOUR GAME UP

Whatever moron who started this post should shoot himself. The AR takes more skill than any other gun, if you are more than 5 feet from the target. You can't go full-auto all the time. You have to control the gun so you can kill distant targets, when I was at my best in Halo: CE, I was amazing with the AR. It was the most powerful and fun weapon. -blam!- this thread starter.

How wrong can you be? I mean, I like Halo 2 more, but what you just posted is just...wrong. Larger hitboxes, auto-aim, aim-assist...just...no. Halo CE was harder.

everything in halo, weapons, vehicles, and stratedgys take skill, how much depends on the situation. To say that the SMG takes no skill, and the BR takes alot of skill is just ignorant. And it is kinda stupid to say that when halo 2 has auto-aim (lol). well thats my two cents and "So please, for the sake of humanity.. the next time you have a thought... kill yourslef."


yourslef...lol

Wow, he didn't even misspell it, he just was typing so fast he hit "e" before "l"

Combat Evolved came first. Hence, Halo:CE.


yes,but currently we have to call it simply halo 1 for xbox, or h1x, bc if u call it halo ce, u will b talking about a pc game, not thew xbox game, i could give a crap which came first, halo ce is for pc, not xbox

-no, we don't have to call it that.
-no, I'll be talking about Combat Evolved.
-I couldn't give a crap what you think, Halo:Combat Evolved is for xbox.

Nobody likes a pedant, especially one who's wrong

I beg to differ. Halo CE took much more skill than Halo 2. You said Halo 2 takes much more skill than Halo 1, but later you say that any noob should be able to 4 shot. Try 3 shots in Halo 1 with the pistol. Most people would agree that the Halo 1 takes MUCH more skill.

Instead of critisising me why don't you explain why the AR is so great. I don't think that I have ever heard anything other than "the AR is so much better." So why don't you explain this to me.

Reason why the Assault Rifle owns the Battle Rifle: The Assault takes more skill to use because the spread-fire range is so large that you could be shooting at someone 10 ft. away and you MIGHT get 13 hits... out of 60 shots. Heck you would probably just hit everything BUT the opponent. The Battle Rifle has such precise aiming that even someone who's NEVER played can master it within about 15 minutes of starting.
