343 gets a 1 out of 10
IM TIRED OF EVERYONE ONLINE USING THE DARN MAGNUM!!! MAKE THE FREAKING ASSAULT RIFLE GOOD!!! IT HAS NO PLACE!! ITS SUPPOSED TO BE A GOOD MEDIUM-CLOSE RANGE RIFLE AND IT SUCKS. EVERY PLAYER USES THE DANG MAGNUM BC ITS HAS NOT GOOD BUT GREAT RANGE, DAMAGE, MAG CAP, ROF AND THATS BS. FIX IT
The current Halo 5 AR is a solid enough option within medium-close range assuming you’re able to land a headshot after breaking an opponent’s shield. It’s optimum TTK is 1.2 seconds. It also acts as a solid clean-up weapon to finish off opponents thanks to its quick switch speed and headshot capability.
It requires more aim skill than any previous Halo AR which prevents it from existing as a medium-close range “cheese” weapon, but it still provides players who struggle with their aim an option that’s easier to use than the Magnum.
For example, in witnessing my daughter play Halo 5 (under her account) my eyes were opened to very low-level gameplay. Admittedly, she’s not good at FPS titles because she struggles to move and aim simultaneously. If I was to guess, she’s probably a legit Bronze level player, possibly in the 1-4 rank ranges. In most of her matches pretty much everyone seems to use the AR as their primary choice because they greatly struggle to get any effective use out of the Magnum when they try using it.
While I think there are some further adjustments that could be lent to the H5AR to yet better position it within its sandbox niche roll it’s current design isn’t all that bad.
The magnum out classes the AR DEFINITELY

According to halo 5 statistics the number one used gun is the magnum. 90% players use it as their primary and that’s bs
