I have been playing Halo 5 guardians and the 1st week was a blast enjoying the game then BR starts Happened. Don’t get me wrong the Battle rifle is the best gun in the game and i use it the most. What i don’t understand is why put BR’s as a start there is no control for that gun anymore on that map? Why is there no DMR start in game then? Fans of the DMR could be mad (also pistols are like gone now). This is my opinion, but if there is only AR and pistol starts is good cause not everyone can one shot you (when your shields get low by grenade at start) meaning they might not have the range if they didn’t have the BR start. Now i know there might be a playlist for different starts once the full game is out, but just wanted to share my opinion on the topic and what you think of it? Maybe a Veto system with starts and maps again 343?
PS my grammar sucks also I am Gold in rank and played 70+ games so i am not just a person that played two games and got mad cause I lost.
They aren’t trash they just don’t belong as an option for start. Keep them on the map like they should be and start us with an ar and magnum.

yeah there not trash just weird to have
I think the br/ar starts are awesome.
and I have to agree, I like ar starts much more than br only starts.
I think it can be alright on certain maps. AR/BR starts on Truth weren’t terrible, but I can not stand it on Pegasus. Every time I’ve played on this map it’s turned into teams standing on opposite sides of the map, taking a couple shots before taking cover to let their shields recharge, and only leaving when the rocket spawns.
The concept of ‘BR starts’ I support, every spawn I want a weapon that can compete against power weapons. However, the way BR functions in Halo 5 is what I have a major problem with.
First of all, the hitboxes are way too big, and bullet magnetism is way too strong. Second of all, the BR has simultaneous kick + spread.
When you combine those things together, the BR turns into a long range 4-5-shot shotgun, requiring little to no aim. Thus, you have an non-engaging rock-paper-scissor style weapon dictating most of the combat. I literally can get headshots while aiming a someones stomach. I can get headhosts while aiming a full body length away from someone. The BR kick, spread, hitbox size and bullet magnetism has turned the BR into something awful.
