The DMR Is Still Good (video)

Hey everyone!

I recently did a video about how the DMR is still a good weapon, and it has received a positive response from my viewers so I figured I would post it here.

Basically I just explain why the DMR is still a good weapon. Yes, its not the dominant weapon it once was, but thats a good thing. No singular weapon should be the best in the game.

But the DMR is FAR from useless like everyone seems to claim.

Feedback is appreciated as always. And just a quick note to Waypoint - could we possibly get the ability to embed our videos?

Thank you all for your time and have a great weekend =)

Good vid. I still rock the DMR, pace shots etc and I still pull off wins against BR and Carbine users. I primarily use AR and DMR.

Plus, it’s just plain $exy

The DMR is supposed to be your primary weapon in BTB, not in 4v4. If it’s still taking on BR’s and Carbines at close range, there’s still a problem.

The last time I used the DMR I got destroyed by people using br’s and other weapons.

The BR is OP

It happens though, just takes a bit more focus, like the Sniper.

I can’t believe people are still saying this it makes my head hurt

The DMR is still a good weapon it didn’t get changed very much at all in the weapon tuning as it only had its RRR reduced

It’s what it was always intended to be a weapon that excels in long range combat but can still compete mid range
It’s a jack of all trades master of none utility rifle

Well people say the AR is OP, the BR needs a RoF or Damage Nerf

i would respectfully disagree. it is now perfect within its area of use. very nice patch.

I suggest you actually watch the video.

How?

> Well people say the AR is OP, the BR needs a RoF or Damage Nerf

The AR is far from OP especially now since it had its aim assist and BM cut in half (50%)
Also, the BR was RESTORED to a 4sk

I am going to say that again and highlight a bit for you:

The BR was <mark>RESTORED to a 4sk</mark>

It was a 4sk in H2 it was a 4sk in H3 and it should have been a 4sk in H4 from the beginning, so no, it doesn’t need a damage nerf, its right where it should be where it always should have been and just so you know it received an RoF nerf in the weapon tuning

All the weapons are near perfect now including and especially the BR

The BR is beat at mid-long by the DMR and LR (as it should be)
Can be challenged close - mid by the Carbine (as it should be)
And gets destroyed by the AR close range (as it should be)

The BR has a 3 shot spread which requires all 12 (11 due to lag compensation) in order for it to be a 4sk it has recoil the shortest RRR range of all the precision weapons (I think is RRR is the same as the carbine)

Outside of the BR’s RRR it is near useless unlike the DMR which is a viable option at all ranges but close

The BR is far from OP

…You’re welcome

I’ve bested many a BR n00b with the DMR since I got used to the Weapon Tuning. You don’t need to tell me.

No offense, but do you only come on the halo waypoint forums just to promote your videos? Every time I see you posting on here you’re just promoting your videos.
Don’t get me wrong, your videos are good, I’m just sayin. (I don’t think just coming here just to promote your videos is allowed or something like that)

I don’t see the problem. He’s positively contributing to the community.

ed
No, it should take 12 bullets to kill, 11 is to quick, you’re pretty much guaranteed a kill with it

Lag compensation.

So it stays OP

And how is it OP?

Needs a RoF nerf, just my opinion
