  • What's funny is that isn't the worst post I've ever seen from DanBauer. Which is pretty pathetic at the same time. My personal favorite was when he was critical of the H3 BR and AR before he had even played the game. His sole reason for saying they didn't work? MLG said so! He even made a whole thread about how the AR/BRs were broken because people at MLG said it was. Way to think for yourself. Oh, and Hitzel. Give it up. You've been hanging onto that quote for years and you still don't get it. He don't work for Bungie anymore. His impressions of the M6D are pointless to this conversation. Several CURRENT Bungie employees have said countless times that the M6D was a broken, unbalanced weapon. They said the same for the H2 BR (even though it was slightly better than the M6D) If you haven't notice Bungie has gone to the development point where all weapons have a role instead of 1 weapon filling all roles. This changes gameplay drastically because the player is required to makes choices about what weapons they want to carry in order to accomplish their goal. In HCE all I needed was the M6D because it was the one weapon to rule them all. If someone had a shotty/rockets was my only concern. And if I thought they did all I had to do was stay slightly outside of their kill range while taking them out with my howitzer hand-cannon. More on topic of the WWUD is that I love the H3 BR. I feel that it's still awfully powerful but at the same time isn't ludicrously powerful like M6D or H2 BR were. I've always understood that the spread was to limit the range of the BR in order for it to fill the role as a sniper distraction at long-range while being dominant in medium range. It now definitely has more of a defined role compared to the H2 iteration. Oh, and I thought that Bungie said that they were against using teleporters. Something about moving a distance without any "cost". Which is why they talked about instituting the man-cannons. Well, since Bungie obviously doesn't mind using a couple of teleporters...can we get Boarding Action? Hell, even with man-cannons shooting players back and forth would be awesome even if you didn't want to go the teleporter route. ~B.B.
