I think it’s pretty ridiculous that in 2014 that we are still dealing with gametypes that are still only automatic weapon starts I’ve noticed that these still exist like Halo 3 objective gametypes are basically all automatics weapons and pretty much every single H2 gametype is SMG starts.
This needs too be changed because there is no reason too spawn people with a useless starting weapon when it could easily be changed by making a precision rifle your primary weapon and automatic weapon for your secondary and this makes everyone happy because who want too use there automatic weapons can use them and those of us who want too use want too use precison rifles don’t have too fight over the limited Battle rifle spawns on the map.
This would also cut down on gametype redundancy since you won’t need 2 variants of the same gametype just with different starting weapons anyways Halo 1 is always ready fine since it’s already pistol/ar starts which is great and Halo 4 you have loadouts so there fine.
Anyways the starting weapons should be as follows and this should be changed across the board for any objective/slayer/gametypes except for stuff like minigames.
H2 - BR/SMG
H3 - BR/AR
H2A BR/SMG
