To the people who said that the DMR isnt OP

Why is everyone using it in MP?Huh?Even in CQC maps?
Why if you see in the last match pressing back,you can see how everyone is using the DMR?
Ok,maybe some of you guys dont use the DMR,but the majority of the Halo 4 players yes
Now,tell me why is not OP?
Anyone have played COD?Everyone knows why the FMG´s 9 akimbo were used by everyone,same with UMP 45 and Type 95 and a lot of Op weapons
Why,before the game launchs,everyone were saying:Im going to use the BR cause i love it,but now is everyone using the DMR?

So what is it you want…?

I do think the DMR needs a bit of a nerf. Players should not be able to spawn with what is basically a -Yoinking!- sniper rifle. It is also too powerful in cqc, but I don’t have much experience with DMR users in cqc.

It’s also ironic that the DMR users are saying the BR users are the only ones complaining. Of course they don’t have a problem with abusing a overpowered weapon.

It’s not difficult to see how the DMR ruins the balance of the multiplayer. Regardless of how many people use it.

I personally prefer the Light Rifle to the DMR in BTB, and the BR and Storm Rifle (with firepower) on smaller maps. The DMR is satisfying and powerful, but it’s not as overpowered as people are making it seem.

  1. Because they are all sheep and think the semi-auto weapons are “pro”, so they use them regardless of the map size. Give me and my teammates AR’s or Suppressors on Solace against an entire team of DMR users and you will see who wins.

  2. Actually I see the BR more often than the DMR.

  3. People use the DMR because they like long-range combat, or they aren’t a high enough level to use the Lightrifle. You have to remember that the DMR has a very low SR rank to unlock it, whereas you have to be level 20+ to have the forerunner weapons, and level 10+ for the covenant ones.

No, I don’t usually use the DMR either. I just don’t have any issue with it.

Because some people are used to that if they’ve mainly played Reach. My brother uses DMR 90% of the time, even on smaller maps like Haven, when I tell him he should use BR because of it’s closer range. But he still uses DMR. It’s really just personal preference in the end. People will use what they want to use, even if it isn’t the correct weapon to use for the map.

The people who said taht the DMR isnt OP,how can they still saying that the DMR is OP?
I want they to admit that,YES,is OP

I don’t think it’s overpowered. It’s just useful in wide open areas which the majority of the maps are exactly that. I usually win with my BR in close CQC and prefer it over the DMR.

What now?

So how do we balance the DMR? It’s bloom and more shots or what?

i use them all, big maps = DMR/LR, smaller BR/carbine.

I use the DMR and BR, and have beaten people using DMR and BR, BR i find easier to use at close to mid. And the Bleed through damage is awesome on it!

The DMR I feel is awesome long range, but with it’s bloom and being 1 shot at a time it’s not the easiest to use. But if you train with it, you can use it too!

> So how do we balance the DMR? It’s bloom and more shots or what?

Yes…

It’s a -Yoinking!- sniper rifle. That’s not right…

I can understand some people use the DMR because X reason,but now is so much coincidence that everyone is using DMR becuase isnt OP,Right?

what are the CQC maps? all of them have long lines of sight, some more than others. adrift is probably the more closed map, but even the halls allow for long ranged battles

its just an all around weapon because it does well cqc but more often its a longer ranged battle. i think bloom should be more evident unscoped and less scoped so it really is a marksman weapon.

i think carbine should be 7 shot kill. that is all

> So how do we balance the DMR? It’s bloom and more shots or what?

I believe weapons are already balanced and should not be nerfed or buffed whatsoever.
Bloom would make using he DMR horrible, and more shots would throw it out of balance.

I’ve seen waves of people moving to the BR for close quarters stuff and LRs for long range stuff. Dont know what you’re talking about, OP

> So how do we balance the DMR? It’s bloom and more shots or what?

A RoF nerf would balance it by making it preferred for long range combat (As it was intended) instead of it destoying all guns at all ranges as it does now.

Are you just mad because you’re getting dumped on by people using the DMR?? It is the best gun in the game, but its definitely not game breaking.

The BR is pretty -Yoinking!- hardcore too. I use it interchangeably with the DMr, though the DMr slightly wins out.

I believe the DMR is overpowered. I’ve had quite a few one on one fights with other players, me using the BR and them using the DMR, where they took me down faster than I could them - even though I hit with every shot. This would be fine if it was a long-range fight, but it wasn’t. It was close enough to use the AR.

My suggestion would be that the DMR’s fire speed should be reduced or it should take at least one more shot to kill someone.
