Switch DMR for BR in tittle update!!

Most people seem to like the BR much more than the DMR , and since the TU is about making MM feel more like a classic expirience they should make the DMR a BR , so my suggestion to 343 is that they edit it to make it seem like a BR.

And I know they can , because if mods CAN do it im sure 343 can.

Just because the TU is to make it a more “classic experience” doesn’t mean they should deviate from what’s already been established for Reach. And if the TU was really going for a more classic feel, they would remove AA’s altogether instead of just nerfing them.

No they cant do it in the TU. They would have to recompile every map, making the TU size be about 6 GB.

I would be all for this but its unfortunatly not gonna happen. :frowning: But mark my words the BR will return for Halo 4. :slight_smile:

You do realize that the DMR is the BR but Semi-Auto with 3 more shots before reloading, right?

Except the DMR has bloom, not a fixed fire rate, ETC

Guys this could be possible. with the title update, especially since for the Anniversary gametypes they’re changing the way the magnum behaves.

  • It would still be the DMR in terms of the weapon model, only it will behave like the burst fire BR
  • The changes would exist ONLY for the specific Anniversary gametypes, not for the entire game.

Its not really possible Sam. It wouldnt be like the BR at all, especially with the lack of a fixed fire rate.

> Its not really possible Sam. It wouldnt be like the BR at all, especially with the lack of a fixed fire rate.

but they could potentially tweak the settings a bit right? at least to make the weapon behave a little bit differently from the semi-auto dmr. ok, so it won’t be like the br exactly. i myself just wish this game had a bit more weapon variety. they really went downhill in that area.

Im not sure. I think they could, but it would be pretty glitchy.

DUDE HELL YEAH!! If the BR came back and replaced the DMR…its time to dump the girlfriend and back to playing hardcore Halo 24/7 instead of the once every month!

If 343i makes this happen they will replace Jesus Christ and become a religion which I will completely give my soul to and my undying devotion and worship!

All ballastic weapons in Halo (save the Sniper Rifles in any Halo and the BR in Halo 2) have had “bloom”, also known as their “Cone of Effect”. Reach is simply the first system where players have an actual, direct hand in determining it as well as the first one where it actually shows the cone of effect changing in the reticule.

They are trying to emulate the BR with the DMR using all available resources. They are INCAPABLE of simply making the BR be in the game.

And thats exactly what im saying , aslong as it has its feeling.

this wont happen. sorry OP :C

were getting a tweakable and fixed DMR tho. dont fret :smiley:

Whats the point? The DMR fills the exact same niche so. . .

An even more classic experience than the BR would be the Classic Pistol, which they are doing.

BR’s, DMR’s and NR’s are NOT classic.

I don’t think it is possible for 343i to bring the BR in Reach. The game will be unbalanced, or I should say… MORE unbalanced.

Let’s cross fingers and hope for the BR to be back in Halo 4.

Are 343i even reading this ?

I wish…

but H4 is coming and if there is no BR there… all is lost.
