The Swat Topic

I just wanted to point out that their is a lack of a DMR in swat, you have to go with the playlist. Either swatnums or traditional swat. While I enjoy swat I’d really like to see the DMR or at least be able to understand why they may have removed it. I found playing the DMR enjoyable in Halo 4 but apparently this was thought otherwise. Can someone enlighten me on the situation?

Speculations buzz around the small arena maps, and the fact that DMRs tend to be elusive in REQ packs. Those that want to complete load out weapon mastery commendation have to grind to get a dmr in req packs, and then kill with it a ton which takes a while as its a req level 6 item.

If if the dmr were in swat, players could get all the kills for it super quick, eliminating the need for req pack grinding.

So we have one gameplay theory and one business theory lol.

But the other load out weapons are in arena. Plus, I completed the DMR comm before I even got a DMR cert. The “business” theory sounds a little silly to me.

So then, why is there no dmr variant in swat? You poopoo on my idea, what’s yours?

I don’t need to know the reason to think yours is silly.

They also don’t have the carbine or light rifle in SWAT. Those aren’t load outs in WZ, I know, but still. I just think they made SWAT to only be BR and Mags because that’s what they wanted SWAT to be.

I mainly play swat and annoyed by the lack of modes. Just swatnums and rifle.

I dont enjoy swatnums…

Swat ok, would of bin cool with DMR or light rifle but its not to be lol.

I don’t see the issue with it, I mean we all have the same struggles with the game of course

Can I at least just get a backup gun when I play SWAT? Really a pain to not have a secondary if I need it.

Map Carbines would be fun too. Or at least map magnums, and less SWATnums please.

We need boltshots in SWAT mode.

What they should really do is replace the normal BR starts with H2BR starts.

I would like to see alot of variations of swat, but I would prefer more variety of playlists lol

I think it would be cool if the had different variants of swat like one for forerunners and covenant

DMRs are indeed needed in SWAT in my opinion as well.
I really don’t buy the business side. I’ve only pulled it out a couple of times in Warzone and saw no trouble on the commendations. Just go play Torque a lot and you have a bunch of DMRs.

I would love if SWAT would go back like the old days and you load out with a DMR and magnum.

OR!

Make a SWATnums playlist all by itself, for those of us that like to punish ourselves with it, lol.

I think I heard somewhere that they will be adding DMR Swat soon.

DMR’s will be in swat with the next update, also there will be less swatnums in the playlists. This will be added in the ghosts of meridian update, along with forge improvements and other sandbox things if i recall correctly. there was a post it was either the last cannonfodder or the community update statement thing. look it up.

How big of a change must it be to put some DMR’s in and go have 33.33% of games with DMRs, BRs and Magnums?

how about some swat potatoe, anyone remember that crazy reach game type?
