I like the BR just the way it is. I really don't see what's wrong with it. [Edited on 07.01.2008 10:42 AM PDT]

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] mooshmoossh I like the BR just the way it is. I really don't see what's wrong with it.[/quote] I feel the same way

i think it's really the all purpose gun as its got good accuracy and an ok rate of fire, although in campaign i tend to use ar more.
-
Why are so many people complaining about the BR spread? I don't see a problem. It's not my top tool of destruction for nothing.
-
I don't see why people complain about it, I think its fine just as it is. --Amzajr

The BR is fine the way it is. I don't understand why people complain so excessively about it.

My thoughts: *The BR [i]was[/i] designed with strengths and weaknesses. *The weaknesses were added in to offset the strengths. *It takes skill to use the BR like JonnyOThan said. *The BR is as effective as it was designed to be. *Bungie DOESNT have to fix the BR because it is the way they want it to be. So, if you don't like the BR there is one [i]real[/i] simple solution.......................[i][b][u]Don't Use It[/i][/b][/u]

that's a good idea. i think everything's fine with br's. who cares about a spread that nobody but progamers recognize? learn to play with the new br everthing will be fine. [Edited on 07.01.2008 10:51 AM PDT]

The BR takes skill to use now. And everyone is gonna have to deal with it
-
im fine with the BR. I never had dropping bullets or spread problems. Even if i do, i hardly notice it. I just use it when i need to. If it drops bullets, oh well. Spread? It's only a game. I don't see why everyone complains.

The BR was ridiculous in Halo 2. Random spread and a lack of instant hit detection have made it so that the BR is not a one man killing machine in Halo 3, but instead a weapon that requires practice and skill to use.

The BR is Beast That Simple No Contreversy

MY BR IS BEAST 1ST PAGE RECOGNITION

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] I no have halos MY BR IS BEAST 1ST PAGE RECOGNITION[/quote] wow dude. what an absurd comment.

I dislike the BR spread because it just adds a randomness factor to it that I dont like. I like having to lead your shots though because in halo 2 when the BR was a hitscan weapon anybody could 4-shot easily now its a little harder so it easily sets apart the players with good BRs and bad BRs.
-
The BR is fine if you dont like it dont use it its as simple as that.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] JUICEHEAD3311 The BR is fine if you dont like it dont use it its as simple as that.[/quote] And replace it with what? The Carbine? Oh yeah, you can't start with it, nice one Bungie.
-
Please, don't change it bungie! The update to the BR in halo 2 ruined halo 2 for me. It became the only weapon anyone used because it could kill at all ranges.
-
It seems their is more people whining about winners. I personally think the BR needs some tweaks, and less randomness, I like the old days where when I fired at their head 4 times they died. Now it seems to be random.
-
I don't have a problem with the BR either. I think that it is balanced out right now while still being a "semi-power weapon". it dominates in midrange (18-20WUs) practically because it's the only weapon that is really designed for that range. especially since carbines are only found on a select few maps. however, even on Snowbound where there are/was a mix of the two weapons they both were successful at that range. you have to be a pretty damn good sniper to beat a BR wielding opponent at 18-20WUs.
-
Bungie made the BR how they want it, not how the community wants it. 'Nuff Said.

I like the br, its a good weapon the way it is
