Be sure to tell everyone how cool you are. If you don't tell them, they won't know.

Where is the neither option?

DMR is my favorite gun in the series. Save for grenade launcher, RIP :(

Reach bloom was -blam!- terrible. I have no nostalgia goggles for Reach because I had no enjoyable experiences in that game at all.

No point in putting something funny, clever or informative here. Most probably im going to get perma-banned anyway.

Bloom without a doubt. The Halo 4 DMR just needs a little nerf.

the only problem i have with mine is that it's unstable,[very shakey],so you'd need a tripod for it.

Just drink a beer and everything will be ok

I've got to say that I think the Halo 4 DMR is more annoying.

The Halo 4 DMR has no recoil and next to no bloom. Used by equally competant marksmen at anything other than short-medium range, the DMR will almost always come out on top vs the BR.

I didn't mind the Reach DMR. If it was long range, you could go for accuracy or rate of fire, there was a conscious trade off between the two. But at close range, it introduced a randomness that emphasised that the DMR was not a CQ weapon.

In the way of part of the new Germany was Poland so Hitler and Stalin took it over so Germany could grow.

What.

I love people who think the DMR broke Halo 4. It's annoying on large maps, yes, but you can easily outplay someone with a different weapon at close-to-medium ranges.

Pure Insanity
The point of war is not to die for one's clan, but it's to make the other bastard die for his
Right before you die, there is always a chance to save yourself, sieze that chance and live to fight another day
The best way to kill someone is to fight them with the same weapons they use and make them know you are better than them, not because of superior weaponry, but because of superior skill.
Hidden in the shadows, Clothed in camo, Armed to the teeth. Hunting.

Halo threads.

But really, neither.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Personally I like bloom more.
In Halo 4, I don't use or enjoy the DMR as much as Reach, and everyone else with it is often very skillful except from long range with certain weapons.

  • 12.16.2012 7:31 PM PDT

hmm

I didn't mind the bloom in Reach, you just had to time your shots.

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

But Halo 4 also has bloom just like every Halo ever made.


Misinformed person is misinformed.

Bloom existed in every Halo, yes, but only on automatic weapons. Reach was the first "Halo" game to implement it in precision weapons. Which made precision weapons the complete opposite of what they're supposed to be. Precise.

Wow, more people hate Reach than I thought. It wasn't that bad, guys...
yes it was

Flood all of you are pathetic, when Reach was out you guys could NOT stop complaining about the bloom and randomness of the weapon. Now that Halo 4 is out all I here is OMF3G!!! TEH DRMZ IS SO OPZZZ NREF NOAW K 343??!! , it's stupid really. Sure the gun could use a reduction in rate of fire or a minor patch and now you're saying the Dmr in Halo Reach was fine?!!?

Misinformed?

Kid, I've been playing Halo since the first night of release with CE. I even was watching Halo in it's transition when it was first revealed on a PC like four years before the Xbox.

Bloom has been in every damn Halo game. the only difference in Reach was that the player could -blam!- ing see it.

Yeah if the DMR user is a complete retard.

  • 12.17.2012 2:03 AM PDT

One does not simply trolololol into Mordor.

Both are annoying, but at least Halo 4's DMR isn't random, so if I do the same spamming as everyone else, I actually get kills.

Bloom. It still annoys me in Halo 4.
Your not going to miss anyways since its almost like it isn't there due to how fast it contracts and how little it actually expands.
