Find it easier to hit headshots with for some reason. Might have something to do with the cursor not sure.

BR is my favorite, but nothing can beat that fine fresh sound of a carbine pop in the morning.

i prefer the carbine, even if you can see exactly where somebody is shooting you from, its a better weapon than the BR - better ammo capacity (the BR shoots 3 rounds at a time), and its easier to get headshots because its a single shot weapon

depends on what game type. The BxR for no shield game types is better since it can shoot in 3 different spots if you spinn when shooting.

Ohhh and did you guys know the BxR is more affective if you move the reticle across your opponents body while you are shooting.

  • 07.19.2006 2:20 AM PDT

lol wut?

i prefer the carbine

Well for the games that are all wank and laggy, i find the battlerifle much more useful.

We've been here since you left.
We left before you came.

I pick the Carbine, it's easier to shoot with and I get more head shots with it.

The carbine has a faster rate of fire and a relatively larger clip...it also seems slightly better at armor piercing, although the manual says that they're an equal match. The battle rifle has it's uses, but I prefer the carbine....The constant flow of green whistling death is the deciding factor for me.

BR is better because you only need one shot to kill and unshielded opponent, and even if you dont get a head shot and you only get body shots you wont run out as fast as a carbine would.
And I can honestly say that I have never used the BR to kill somebody with BXR, BXB etc
And by the way you can still BXR with a carbine it works with any weapon it is a weapons glitch just like melee canceling.

I prefer the battle rifle because of its accuracy and three shot burst.

Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain

I can just picture Mechalord reading his post to a group of Halo fans at GameStop in real life: loud, halting speech, his pimpled face turning red with anger at weak noobs, wildly gesticulating and banging the counter to drive his point home, stroking his tiny teen mustache like Halo Hitler. You need a girlfriend buddy.

I like them both although im more comfortable with the Br. Its much more annoying when im getting shot by a carbine though lol.

Halo 3: Collapse
Chapter 20, Revelations, is up (update 11-14-10)
The Mirratord

The Carbine is a perfect headshot weapon. More total ammo than the BR, more shots per clip. As an added bonus, it actually takes skill to use rather than letting the game aim for you.

I would like Bungie to make the Carbine slightly stronger for Halo 3.
And give it more ammo. I find it runs out of ammo within 3 or 4 kills. It becomes quite annoying.
