I found the DMR boring. BR FTW!!

It’s incredible obvious and leaves no room for misinterpretation; your shot hit or your shot missed. With a burst weapon it may look like you hit but only 2 out of the 3 bullets actually did or something to that effect. This happens constantly and leads to a feeling of inconsistency; kind of like what bloom does.

I love the BR but the zb dmr feels more consistant imo
No just give the br a single and a burst fire mode and get rid of the horrible dmr
Br is all ready confirmed don’t know why this tread even got revived.^^^ I would love a select fire mode but don’t hold your breath. The DMR is not a horrible gun it plays it’s role very well. That being said BR>DMR and it doesn’t matter if stats say otherwise I prefer the BR so that’s my opinion.
Also on another note the BR and DMR both belong in Halo 4 it adds another option to the game and it allows both Pre-Reach players to have there old BR back and Post Halo 3 players to have there DMR, So both new and old players have a gun that they are accustomed to.

The number one reason players play FPS is for immersion and with single shot rifles you feel like your being supressed everytime you take a shot at medium to close range; this is where the BR comes in as a supplement as such & with hitscan its smallest flaws are virtually unoticable. It works perfectly fine because even if it doesn’t hit the player with all 3 bullets and just 2 it’s still more effective at closer ranges then the DMR. 3-Shot burst fire also adds more skill requirement then single-shot because the consistency is determined via the amount of bullet hit which requires more accurate placement of reticle’s in multiplayer. The BR is also by far a much more entertaining weapon to use in multiplayer as determined by majority and is the most popular weapon in the series history.
Get over it the BR has a place in Halo.

Exactly and it’s selfish to not want a weapon in a game that is being designed for all players when it’s being balanced accordingly.
I’d certainly choose the BR over the DMR anyday.

I like the BR
If you think DMR takes more skill and is better weapon for competive game, you do not know much. I would like to see Halo 4 without the DMR.
If people really thought single shot weapons were more accurate/consistant, we would have seen the Carbine being favoured over the BR in both Halo 2 and 3, where in reality, despite the spread, the BR was still the better option.
What we can all look forward to in Halo 4 though, is choice. With the Carbine, Assault Carbine, BR and DMR all in, hopefully we will see some good balance and some different playstyles come out of it.
For me though, unless the DMR is as OP as it sounds, or if the Carbine/AC are really fantastic, I’ll be sticking with my trusty BR.
> wow all these halo 2 kids kinda piss me off… “BR is what halo is” wtf? halo ce the first halo game. not that i hate the BR but yeah…
>
> not to mention burst fire makes team shotting almost mandatory (not as bad as reach) while halo ce u can go alone and rape Yoink! up. it would be nice to not be stuck on ur teammates like glue in halo 3 or reach. tons of other games have team work without being FORCED to team shot…

> with a single shot gun its possible to take out 2 guys fighting you while a BR thats only happening if u get a lucky nade or they suck D
That would be pretty cool if I was able to aim off a single burst for the double. I think there is a greater chance of killing the second person on your 3rd and last bullet than the 2nd bullet.
