I guess it’s just frustrating because 343 doesn’t get that if it isn’t broke don’t fix it man…
I feel like there should be an option where you can decide if you want to play with the Ar and sidekick or the BR. Or they can just add like “Team slayer Battle rifle” or something like that i dont know in my opinion i think we should just keep the AR and sidekick in team slayer. To be fair BR is already in ranked.
(Please bring back AR and sidekick in team slayer its the only way i have fun in this game :()
I havent had fun in this game for a while now until they added BR75 to team slayer please remove it its ruining the fun. I am getting so stressed with the gun I am terrible with. I have been practicing with the BR 24/7 because of the battle rife in team slayer so what i am saying is please remove this stupid gun from team slayer or do something where you can pick between team slayer BR or just regular team slayer with the AR and pistol. Halo infinite is my favorite game and I dont want to have to quit so please just do something about it!!!
I still don’t understand why people have such a strong dislike for the BR.
The BR and AR in this game cannot both be starting weapons, everyone will constantly default to AR because its Ease of Use ratio to its potential is wayyy too high, especially in close range.
All this means is that people who try to get better at using a BR is gonna get punished for trying to use it to do other than steal kills or crossmap.
The same applies to the sidekick in terms of why it can’t be a secondary starting gun with the BR.
Not exactly. A significant majority (58%) of the game type/map combinations in the Team Slayer playlist are the Slayer BR variant now. However, the Season 2 change that “nerfed” the melee damage overall was only mitigated for the BR in Ranked playlists! As a result, the Ranked Arena participants can still use a BR that has a 2-burst/melee kill, while that won’t work for people in Team Slayer (as well as the other Social playlists).
With all due respect to the 343i crew, making Slayer BR the predominant variant in this playlist with radar enabled while the melee damage remains constrained is a huge disservice to the Team Slayer fan base.
People are against the motion tracker even existing in social now?
LOL. I want to start with a BR every time. This change is the absolute best. ![]()
No, that wasn’t my point. My apologies if it came across that way, but your “partial quote” could be a bit misleading.
I was trying to emphasize that the global 10% decrease to melee damage that they implemented with the Season 2 changes only affects the Social playlists, including Team Slayer. First and foremost, the BR (or any other weapon) shouldn’t have different damage effectiveness levels between Ranked and Social playlists. More to the point, having the BR melee damage lowered significantly with radar enabled will be huge game-changer for people in Team Slayer matches. It will adversely affect the way that players can defend themselves during close quarters encounters.
They need to restore the BR 2-burst/melee kill throughout every playlist.
Oohhhhh
I got you, yeah I want 2 Burst and a useful radar.
The way halo was meant to be played.
Rn the radar is only useful to pull off ninjas
BR starts need a Match Composer so both Automatic and Precision fans are happy in ranked & social!
All those other playlists were already ruined with AR starts. The least they could do is ruin some with BR starts.
Love pulling off Ninjas!
