I just read about the balance update. How the BR is going to be 4 shot and the LR is going to have increased ROF. Good. Now the DMR won’t be the best precision weapon for every situation. With that being said, I hope they don’t forget about the Carbine. At least increase the damage or something to keep it competitive with the other precision weapons.
They’re going to reduce the magnetism on automatic weapons now too. That’s fine, but I really hope they at least do something else to buff the automatic weapons. Increase the accuracy or something. Once you’re a step outside of medium-short range they automatic weapons are useless, especially if the BR is going to be 4 shot now.
And please, for god sakes, make active camo jam your radar like it did in Reach. There is no drawback to having active camo on (except for the fact you can’t move as fast). It’s so easy for just 2 people to use active camo and camp up a section of the map for the whole game. You can’t do anything about it because a)you can’t see them as quickly as they can see you, and b)you can’t sneak up on them because their radars are still fully functional!!!
I can’t be the only one that feels this way about active camo…
BTW, the Carbine kicks absolute -Yoink- as of now

They didn’t forget about it. They’re buffing it so it takes one less shot to kill.
Automatic weapons aren’t meant for anything outside of close to medium range. They shouldn’t match the range of the BR.
Camo does jam your radar just like Reach. It’s actually supposed to be more obvious where they are. The only problem is there’s a glitch that makes it so you don’t show up on the radar. It’s been a problem for a long time, but they still haven’t fixed it for some reason. It just keeps getting more and more common. (I don’t actually know how to do it, though.)
Wait… you think the Carbine is actually good compared to the BR or DMR. Unless the guy you’re going against is bad, you’re not gonna win with a Carbine if they’re using a BR or DMR (I’m talking medium range, hip fire battles)

Let me guess, you aren’t good with the carbine.
OT, The Carbine is also getting a projectile hit something another. I can’t remember what it’s called. It was in the last bulletin.

I mean jam your radar as in actual red dots flying all over the place (like it was in reach) instead of the just gray dots. For the active camo user, I don’t see that as much of a disadvantage at all, since they still have full unobstructed use of their radar, minus the slight inconvenience of a few gray dots floating around.
The Carbine requires patience and aim, with those abilities you’ll win every encounter.

Not if the other guy with the DMR has just as much patience and aim.
I get the Carbine is not completely useless. But I’m just saying that it’s simply outclassed overall by the BR or DMR (especially the DMR).

I forgot about that since I don’t use it much. I totally agree. There really is no downside to using Camo.

Thank you. I thought I was the only one…It’s way to easy to camp with Active camo.
And nice to hear the Carbine is getting a slight buff too.
I really think the automatics should get a buff too though, something like a slight accuracy increase. Look at the Storm Rifle. It would be half decent to use if it wasn’t so inaccurate. It’s like the poor man’s scattershot because it’s accuracy makes it effective only at close range.

They are already increasing the damage of the automatics. Believe or not if the aim assist of the automatics was not lowered, they would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overpowred.
Active cammo needs to be fixed and it’s time should be reduced.
I really hope that the sniper will be like halo 3 or reach. Because everyone can snipe and it’s annoying. You practicing your shot for many years and you play a game with a lot people that can snipe very well is unacceptable for me.
