Nobody is complaining that the DMR is a single shot weapon. They are complaining because they feel it is overpowered compared to the other rifles. Nobody asked for an unbalanced single shot weapon.
> The Halo community is one the most horrible communities out there. Even worse than COD. Bunch of ungrateful bricks, nothing more. The developers try to make the adjustments the players want, then when they do it the community gives them even more Yoink!. They just dont appreciate nothing, absolutely nothing.
You’ve never been on a Sonic the Hedgehog community, have you?
I believe it was the people who sucked with the BR that wanted a DMR, and the BR people who complained about the DMR. My friend is good with the DMR and bad with the BR. I am better with the BR
I agree but the thing people are complaining about is legit- it is overpowered. The dmr in reach had too much bloom so it was fixed. people should be more thankful for the dmr and the other great weapons in this game but in both reach and 4 the dmr has had valid issues that require fixing.
I loved the DMR in Halo reach, but I hate it in Halo 4. If it was balanced more correctly I would like. I hate any gun that messes up the sandbox.
If the BR was overpowered I would be complaining just as much and hate it just as much as the DMR

It isn’t hypocritical to say that the one shot gun that was made is unbalanced. Balance it and there won’t be a problem.
Not because I believe you got what you asked for with the DMR (although plenty did). But because I have never come across a community who feels they deserve so much from a developer post release just because they spent £30 on a title. Anything I receive post-release I view as a bonus, not something that is owed to me.
If this post aggravates you, then I’m talking about you.

Generally, yeah. Happy to say I’m not that type of sonic fan myself
Considering I’ve always loved the Halo 2 and Halo 3 BR the way it always has been I’m pretty sure I am no hypocrite,
I never wanted Reach or Halo 4 gameplay and I certainly never wanted the DMR. Everyone thinks that because someone loved Halo CE, 2, and 3 we must have complained each time one of those game released about how much better the previous one was. Don’t lump me in that false assumption ever. I loved all 3 and never complained. Reach is what started the downfall.
Yea I’ve gone back to just Cause 2… and GTA 4, and Bf3, Halo is fun imo to play with friends, like Borderlands 1/2 it sucks if there’s only one person. And if its only you playing your team has zero coordination. But yea, its not a terrible game but the DMR kinda taints it, since everyone uses it I try to use the Carbine, which is better if the other play has crappy aim but meh, with friends is better. It was a good first outing, maybe 343 will bring it back around with H5, then again, maybe not. Ya never know.

> Bungie creates a teaser for Halo 2 displaying a Battle Rifle that operates JUST like our LightRifle does now (3RB unscoped, 1S scoped. Mightve been the other way around, haven’t watched the vid in a long time). People were MAD excited, I know I was. I wanted THAT BATTLE RIFLE.

> 343i jump in and reduce the bloom on the gun, making it IMHO WAY better then it was. I enjoyed the TU DMR a lot. All of you on the other hand, kept whining. Saying that it’s even WORSE then what it was BEFORE the TU Fix? HOW?!

> Jump forward to Halo 4. We get all the rifles all in one place (and I knew this was gonna happen), and it got to the point where they had a war amongst themselves for superiority. The DMR won that said war.
>
> SO, now that we have a GOOD DMR in a Halo game. One that doesn’t require bloom, or spamming your shots, or being lucky. But actually (tries) to make you aim your shots and be more accurate. The thing becomes a complete BEAST and dominates all other rifles/guns.

> TL;DR - After the community begging SO long for a single shot UNSC based rifle. Now they want to get rid of it, and say it’s too powerful.

> YET ALL OF YOU were the ones who basically created this DMR from all your excessive whining about Reachs. You finally got what you wanted, why are you still complaining?!
Ha I wanted a better pistol than the one in Reach…
I enjoy both the BR and the DMR very much. I prefer the DMR, but I think I split my usages of the weapons rather evenly. BR for tight maps like Adrift/Simplex and DMR for Complex/Ragnorok type maps.
I don’t feel the DMR is over powered because every time I get into a close/mid ranged fight against a BR while using the DMR I usually lose. The DMR has an obvious advantage at long range while the BR is better up close. The biggest complaint I’ve seen is people that are pretty much shot and killed right as they spawn BECAUSE of the range of the DMR. However, I think that’s more of an issue with spawn points than the weapon itself…

The last good sonic game was sonic 3, virtually everything after wasn’t very good and this is coming from someone that still has the original genesis and sonic game.
