So everytime I play Halo 5 with game modes with magnum starts, I can’t help but to feel like it’s WAY too fast of a fire rate. I mean on top of Halo 5’s already fast movement, the super fast fire rate makes it just, too complex, too much to handle. I can win gunfights here and there with it but its just too much. I think the dmr and br are a healthy balance of the movement/spartan abilities, and firerate, its slow/moderate and fast combined and they compliment each other. I guess I just wish Halo 5 had BR starts on everything, the magnum just makes it too fast for me lol. I would love to hear if people agree! Feedback is appreciated! Thank you for reading

While the Magnum is godlike now, BR starts would’ve probably been worse for you. Not only is it a faster 4 shot perfect, but with a BR you can sweep your shot burst, unlike the Magnum. That makes it a lot more nooby.
Maybe I just got use to it. But I think it’s perfect for (halo 5 only)

With the br im actually fine lol, I enjoy it in 4 and 5. The magnum in 5 just, I dont know, throws me off lol.

Yea it takes alot of getting used to lol
As much as I agree that the magnum is kinda powerful it doesn’t bother me that much. Though if they were to nerf it I’d say modify the reticle bloom to force players to pace their shots ever so slightly. I mean it blooms as you shoot but the bloom does nothing since it resets at the same speed of the rate of fire.

I agree, i would make it like the halo 4 magnum and reach dmr. But i would tone down how random the bloom is

The Halo 4 magnum was “ok” nothing to write home about and I definitely don’t want the Reach DMR with any form of bloom. There has been TONS of reasons why bloom is terrible for Halo, so I’m not getting into that discussion.

I’ve always thought magnum starts was a great idea and makes sense. You start off with a decent weapon that can do something, but ideally you look for a better one. The problem with Halo 5 now is that there is almost no reason to pick up a BR, Carbine, SMG, DMR, etc because the magnum now is just so much better then those weapons in almost everyway. They need to either address the magnum (which they say they are…this should be interesting…) Or change a lot of the other weapons again to conform better around the magnum.
I’m guessing the next weapons tuning or magnum tuning, will be out sometime mid summer.

I think the magnum is a perfect starting weapon. The launch BR would’ve been way too good as a starting weapon, the current BR is nerfed so it would be better than the launch version but I actually don’t like it very much so I still rather have the magnum haha.
id like to see game modes with some games using the BR starts and some with DMR and Magnum starts depending on the map
It gets tiresome for me having to play with magnums all the time.BR was my favorite weapon before it was changed,now almost no one picks BR,DMR or Carbine anymore cause magnum is better to have overall.For me in Halo 4 all those weapons were equally good and i used all of them more often.Halo 5 also had better weapons at the launch for me,before weapon tuning.BR and SMG were great before,now i never pick them up.
I don’t mind the magnum starts. BRs are basically obsolete in arena compared to the magnum so there is no point in picking it up unless it is a H2BR. However, the magnum is so damn good in this game that when you combine it with the fast movements of Halo 5 it creates a major online sweat fest.

Yeah, I know its my opinion. And I do play btb, althought this was only a post to see if people share the same thoughts on the magnum as myself, no need to be rude about it.

Yeah, bloom was a big issue but I was just spitballing there lol. Bloom sounds like a good idea on paper but in practice its too random. And I completely agree, I feel like Halo 5 is a one gun game, the magnum outclasses most things but power weapons.

I see why you would say that, all I’m saying is that with Halo 5’s super fast spartan abilities especially the thruster it makes it really complex, a little too complex for me. That’s just my opinion lol. Thanks for your feedback!

I agree, it would make Halo 5 feel less like a one gun game. Everything is mainly magnum based outside of btb

I agree 100%. It gets old using the magnum for everything, there’s no reason to pick anything else up because the magnum rips through all of them.
