Are you not getting spawn killed in AR starts by people with stronger weapons from a distance though? Its the exact same situation except you’re unable to fight back at all
I am not getting spawn killed at the start by people who just spawned with a better weapon.
they didn’t spawn with a better weapon, you spawned with the same weapon they did
On the other hand, in AR starts, you have a very limited weapon and they have numerous options right at their base to kill you with and you can’t do anything about it at all.

The problem with BRs Starts is the same problem as before not everyone wants to get hit from across the map at all times and using other weapons becomes pointless which overall makes the sandbox experience and the game stale and boring. Social BTB it should always be weak starts to balance out gameplay for casual and competitive fans. If you want a BR go find one and learn where it spawn most of the time for the future.
Now for the future I wouldn’t mind seeing Rank 8v8 BTB with BRs Starts and No Motion Sensor for something different. But only if its Rank Matchmaking and not Social.
See this is the problem is we need a precision weapon that’s close-mid range.

Ok let me put it lightly. I hate how halo plays when every single person has a BR, it is boring slow and un fun.
Why not just have variants. Some games Ar starts other games br. I’m still hoping we stop getting random weapon spawns. oh and Heavy mode would be cool too.
Yeah, holding down the trigger with mindless bullet hoses while getting farmed by players with ranged weapons is so much more compelling amirite?

Sidekick is good for close range but hits a dead stop before the mid range point. You’re not going to be even landing shots on anyone not in your bubble of influence
I don’t understand this argument personally. What weapons get used less in BR starts than in AR starts? Would people just not pick up hammers and rockets suddenly?
I feel like it moves a lot faster when you can fight constantly instead of having to run for 3 minutes just to get close enough to land shots.
What are your thoughts on potentially a commando start option? Maybe AR or maybe Sidekick as the secondary?

Halo needs projectile weaponry that isn’t borderline hitscan.

This isn’t CoD, and having down time from fighting allows you to think and prep. Constant fight is just bad.

And I live to have fun and play smart. Different play styles neither is wrong or right.
I mean, winning lots and lots of fights is fun and requires you to play smart, so I’m confused how they’re different really
I like scavaging the field and having time to think make choices, you like high combat and instant action. Those are different ways to play.
define scavenging the field though, I’m not sure we’re not talking about exactly the same thing
Grabbing better weapons from racks, or dead bodies using time between fights to take stock of things and move forward.
