Though the assault rifle is underpowered, i find myself with a profound liking to it... When I head out I usually have a combo of the Pistol and the Assault rifle. I'm actually pretty good with the assault rifle, as it lasts longer when firing (if fired in staggered bursts) than a pistol; countless times me and an enemy have wasted entire clips of pistol firing at eachother, and while he switches to his secondary weapon (rather than wait for a reload) and pulls out a sniper, I pull out an assault rifle. When moving quickly in close quarters, guess who wins. I did.
So, here's my favourite set of weapons to walk around with:
1) MA5B and M6D--good for assaults and offensive strategies.
2) M90 and M6D--good for defense, especially inside bases like Blood Gulch.
3) Sniper Rifle and Needler--for long range shoot-and-relocate sniping
He speaks the truth. The AR is pretty good as it is. I don't mind the current power of the AR, I just don't like it's horrible accuracy. If Bungie paid more attention, and fixed that...but I don't mind.
3) Sniper Rifle and Needler--for long range shoot-and-relocate sniping
This should be done by every good, and stealthy HaloPC sniper. But, they jump around like rabbits-on-crack, out in the open, trying to strafe-snipe someone...pathetic...
