Ok who thinks the Br in Halo 3 is Trash it sucks.

Well aparantly you do...

Its a H2 Classic, prolly the best weapon in H2. Its a favorite of all MLG lovers and SWAT players, and is one of the best, and only, midranged weapons that involves skill of use.

Bungie was nice enough to put in the Assault Rifle for those H1 lovers who needed their fix and I assume they probably will put an updated version of the Pistol from H1 in H3 based on popular demand.

So I completely disagree with you, respectfully.

i honestly didnt even bother using it the whole time i played the beta, the assaut rifle was just as effective as anything i can think of

1 word. Carbine.

The Assault Rifle wasn't put into the game because Bungie wanted to satisfy the Halo: CE lovers. It was put into the game because Bungie needed a decent starting weapon. One better than an SMG. And, no, it can't be the BR because games aren't supposed to have starting weapons that pull-off head shots.

I also doubt a patch is going to come out involving the Halo: CE Pistol because then it would make the existing Pistol, already in the game, useless.

the halo 3 pistol is like dual wieldable halo 3 pistol!

And I always picked up a BR or w/e I came across in the beta so I could switch if the tiny clip of 32 rounds in my AR ran out.

Hey demon. The BR shots noticably slower but you can also see that it is a lot stronger. Its more fair cause if you have host you cant snipe people across the map with a br :D

at 1st i though thay yea the BR in H3 is a lot weaker than in H2 but like everyone says and even bungie says, they made a lot of balancing mods to the weapos so no one can really quad shoot with the carbine now but its still a sickly powerful weapon. The BR shoots a little bit slower, but head shots can give you some really satifying results and its a lot less accurate from far away. Because people used to be able to use the BR almost like a sniper rifle but now you cant do that, and the bullets spread out. so yea it takes a litle getting used to the new Balances but its all for the better...but i did notice that its a lot easier to die in H3 i dunno why because i had a lot longer survival rate in H2. so i dunno if the health percentage changed or its just me? (prolly just me)

no it really does seem like its easier to die in h3 then halo 3 but that really depends on the weapon that is being shoot at u the distance its shot from and the accuracy because there are a lot of times that i will get killed fast with the br but there are times when they unload a whole clip and im still there so man idk

Speaking of BR, would anyone mind checking their campaign, use a BR and see how many bursts(headshot) it takes to kill a brute(just the lowest level one w/o a fancy head armor) on normal? Then go through it and count how many BR burts it takes for the same brute in heroic?
Then post 'em here?
B/c I got the Limited Edition and the scratches that came on all of them were very minor on mine. But it still feels like the scratches messed up my heroic campaign mode and it really feels like the enemies take the same damage as they do in normal.

can anyone please help me out here and count the BR bursts? (A good level to try this is Crow's Nest. just make sure u don't have marines to interfere with the brute's health.)
