What are your thoughts on the changes 343i has made to the BR, not just the look, but the power and stuff?
-Yoink- only thing they should have changed was shots not registering
I LOVE the new design
But the final power is yet to be seen
I’m pretty sure we haven’t seen the final BR in terms of power.
I’m glad the BR no longer sounds and looks like a toy in Halo 4.
Dat BR is looking beefy.
5sk? Whatever! If people always claim they’re skillfull and pro, then why the hell would the complain about 5sk? It now requires more skill, which some people like to claim they have.
I love the BR regardless.

Fight the system bruva!
It looks amazing, I’ll be using DMR/SAW most likely so the 5sk doesn’t bother me.
At least the shots are more consistent and predictable than the Halo 3’s random spread. This is a much better way to achieve the goal of keeping the BR from being an all-range gun, without frustrating the player.
Devs and players win here. As for the damage, I’ll let y’all deck it out. 
I do like the new look, xcept for that yellow stripe. I hated it on the Reach AR, and I despise it on the new BR.
I’ll use it for 2 games maximum if it will be a weak 5 shot kill.
i think ill be fine with 5sk if they add 12 more bullets but… ya…

i think the gun skins should get rid of that stripe, i hate that stripe too.
For now BR looks useless. DMR is better at all distances. Finaly What is the difference between a carbine/DMR and BR if it all 5sk? BR must be 4sk and have the same kill time as Dmr/carbine.

Do you take spread into consideration when talking about the BR’s power? At all?

spread not so random like halo 3. If BR will be 5sk spread loses all meaning

Spread, recoil, bloom and RoF. There’s more to balance than just the amount of damage per shot.
