BR, DMR, AND AR

Games Other Halo
1

Looking pretty good as the BR and DMR are confirmed and the podcast pretty much confirmed the AR

Thoughts?

2

I think the AR was confirmed, being that it is the iconic weapon of the series.

counter argument: Halo 2

Lets see how long until people start making threads -Yoinking!- about this.
Anyone want to make bets?

Ya so I saw a post that was an idea of BR, DMR, AR, OR SMG all though the SMG would be used by few, bieng used as starters in MM the Br and DMR seem Pretty equall and they would be pretty good starters

I think that the DMR will act as the Carbine.

Counter counter argument, They talked about using it in the podcast

Ok, my bad. The AR is in EVERY halo game besides halo 2.

well lets hope the carbine returns

I’d like to see the BR, DMR, AR, Carbine, and SMG in Halo 4. Mix it up a little! :slight_smile:

Why not add every gun from every Halo game?

I don’t see how more options would have a negative effect on anything.

AR, DMR and BR might work for starting weapons if they’re balanced, but balancing those might be very hard. AR has always been worthless, BR great and DMR has been a weak BR clone, it will be fun to see how 343i will handle the weapon balance for sure.

I wish more people thought like you! I’ve suggested that quite a few times, it’s really a fantastic idea! :slight_smile:

I would be surprised if the DMR returned. Who actually likes that gun other than the Reach kids?

343i said it’s coming back.

Ya thats pretty much what I said in the original thread of that idea.

Balancing every weapon isn’t easy, especially when there’s LOTS of them.

18

The Covenant, if they are in H4, will need their own mid-range weapon. I wouldn’t be surprised if both the Carbine and Needle Rifle return.

I love all of these guns, it’s going to be awesome.

Reach kids will be using the DMR, Halo veterans will be using the BR.

I’ve been playing since the beginning of time and I’ll be using both. Unintelligent players will use just one.
