Why is the DMR in this game?

Now before you start bashing on me,know that I’m not bashing on it for being better or worse. It just seems strange that the UNSC has three guns compared to the two the Covenant and Forerunners get for starting primaries. I believe if it weren’t for the DMR, Big Team Battle would be a lot more fun instead of knowing you can’t move forward much because of the threat of being shot across the map. Back when the BR was the main weapon outside of power weapons, people constantly met on the other teams bases.

  1. The BR still dominates at range because there is little to no spread while scoped and the recoil is miniscule.

  2. Everyone would just use the LR which kills even faster than the DMR.

The REAL problem is the fact you cannot get descoped. Flinch is terrible and does not even come close to doing the job descoping did.

There shouldn’t be any bloom. This is halo. Not Call of Duty.

I haven’t even noticed bloom outside of the pistol. The AR seems just fine with it.

It increases the importance to stealth. The BR does not zoom in as good as the DMR and doesn’t provide great long range control of the field. The DMR is much more useful at long range, and helps mitigate the OP sniper rifle.
