So I was thinking last night, while I was in line for Hunger games haha(great movie btw: stays true to the book), that maybe the DMR should be in Halo 4. Before you get your -Yoink!- in a bunch, my idea is that the DMR would be like the Halo 3 pistol. Somewhat pointless, but still there for us to use. It would be dumbed down so it could be considered a light weapon. What are your thoughts one the idea.

There isn’t much of a point to put both in if one is vastly superior than the other. I think the majority of people want the BR back anyway simply because Reach has forever tainted Halo’s reputation. I personally wouldn’t even pick up a DMR if I had the option between that and a BR. It would be like the Plasma Repeater. Never used.

I would do the same thing. It would be better just to never have the weapon.

We should have all three: the magnum, the BR and the DMR.
Magnum for CQC, highest RoF, shortest range, least accurate (no scope),
BR for close-medium range, med. Rof (3 Rd. burst), med. accuracy (2x scope)
DMR for medium-long range, low Rof, good accuracy (2x/5x Scope), small clip
All should be 4SK, or optimized to balance out RoF and damage
(sniper has low RoF but is a 1SK)
and for good measure,
the Sniper Rifle for long range, lowest RoF, highly accurate, small clip
I think this would result in the most balanced sandbox from all of the ideas I have seen. A very similar idea was posted in another thread by someone else, if I find that thread I will post a link.

what we need to talking about is what kind of forerunner tech we will able to use. Those guns maybe the one to rule the array. I hope we get something that can fuse with our armor.
