What weapons never get used?

Idk. Im just asking.

I think the storm never does. Also I have had a pistol for a secondary weapon but I think I only got one kill with out side of swat not counting holding onto a flag. so I ask: What weapons hardly ever get used in MM or in anything? Why?

Definately the Carbine. Sooooo underpowered… Remember back in Halo 3 the Carbine was an equivalent to the BR? Yeah it’s lucky now if it matches the Magnum. The Storm Rifle and Suppressor are also underused, for good reason in my opinion…

I don’t think the Carbines to bad.

I actually don’t understand the significance of boltshot. In my opinion it is useless. Maybe I’m not using it correctly or in a special way?

I should test the BR vs Carbine in octagon.

All I know is that I never use the AR or Boltshot for instance due to the fact I’m not a CQC player. So basically I get taken down when I’m in that situation and try my best to fall back to give some distance. So certain weapons just aren’t for me.

Ironically I was getting mashed on by a carbine today. The guy has such an odd play style though.

The boltshot is great. Learn to use it, it’s a beast. Learn to defend against it, you’re a talented player. Everyone complains, but no one tries to stop it.

Carbine and Storm Rifle.

The Carbine’s kill time is faster, only barely losing out to the DMR. It gets used less than the BR for a number of reasons however - smaller clip, less auto-aim, less damage per shot and therefore higher likelihood of missing one. Also, it’s not a human weapon, which automatically lowers player preference.

I only ever use the DMR because why nerf myself but if the DMR was removed from matchmaking tomorrow I’d use the Carbine. You should pretty consistently beat BR and LR users.

I hope you’re kidding. The boltshot is the best CQB loadout weapon in the game. 1sk soo easily

I wonder if he knows to charge it up?

Definitely the DMR

The Carbine is actually better than Halo 3’s version (Much more accurate) and the BR is either the same or worse than Halo 3’s depending on if you could always get a 4sk and if hitscan is a priority.

On paper, the two weapons are equal in Halo 4, but in-game the DMR is far better because it is much easier to use than the Carbine and has a larger clip, regardless of which kills faster.

EDIT: As for weapons that are never used, Magnum, Suppressor, Storm Rifle, Carbine, Light Rifle even in BTB.

Pulse grenades, nuff said

I never see the Carbine or the Storm Rifle Used.

Everyone is correct, the carbine and storm rifle don’t get used much.

I however have started using the carbine more, its rate of fire is unmatched. It’s main problem is that it doesn’t appear (and maybe this is just me) to have the same distance or maybe accuracy at distance as the BR. It is a good short mid range weapon just because it shoots quickly. You’ll have to aim for the head and mash the trigger as fast as possible (don’t miss), but once you get kills with it, it is very satisfying.

Give it a shot, you’ll really enjoy it once ya get the hang of it. I tend to use it alongside the LR with the firepower perk; also the Rogue perk (can’t think of its name right now) that helps with stability (hey maybe that’s the name), is a great thing to have with the carbine.

The storm rifle is a good weapon, you’ll be hard pressed to beat the AR if you fire at the same time, but it is nice since it doesn’t need to reload (as long as you don’t over heat the gun).

All the weapons work good in their own way and in the right conditions, you just have to remember to change up your play style depending upon what weapon choices you make.
