Is there anyone but me who does like to use the BR? I always prefered it over DMR, even though that weapon is better at long range and equivalent at other distances.
I love the way the BR feels, but I can't justify using it over the DMR when the DMR is objectively better. I wish that weren't so.
The BR just needs better clustering at closer range. Missing a shot with it at mid range is just unacceptable. The DMR really doesn't suffer much at all at close range, and is ridiculous unscoped.
I'm a BR dude, unless I'm playing Ragnarok or Complex. I guess if we're listing our main classes I'll go ahead and post mine. - Battle Rifle - Frag nades - 3 nades - Explosion perk thingy - Thruster pack

The only time you see me using the dmr in the game is when im playing BTB, absolutely love the br, but it just doesnt do good at long ranges.
The loadout I use primarily is the following: Assault Loadout: Assault Rifle Battle Rifle Plasma Grenades Promethean Vision Fire Power Explosives The above loadout is what I use in MM. However, depending on the situation, I will use this loadout set: Precision Loadout: DMR Covenant Carbine Plasma Grenade Active Camo Fire Power Awarenes
The only 2 loadouts i ever use are: 1. BR Boltshot Frags Jetpack Grenadier Ammo 2. Lightrifle Plasma Pistol Frags Jetpack Grenadier Ammo I use the lightrifle class for BTB maps and the BR for everything else. Sometimes i use the BR on BTB maps anyway. I don't see the point in using anything else for any of the options except for the DMR over the BR or Lightrifle. The Jetpack is too powerful not to use, except maybe on some maps like Haven or Ragnarok. Ammo is just ridiculously useful and makes Power weapons even more OP the only other one i would consider is explosives. As for grenadier I find it to be the most powerful for it's section.
I am in love with the BR. And I was devastated when I finished it. Both my Carbine and DMR are at the beginning of mastery. The two loadouts I primarily use: Lightrifle Plasma Pistol Pulse Grenades JetPack Grenadier Ammo Carbine Assault Rifle Frags JetPack Firepower Dexterity I've then got one for when I want to rack up grenade kills in objective, one with Wheelman and Gunner for driving and one with Requisition when I get shitty ordnance.
It's powerful especially on Haven. Check this out if you didn't know already: Halo 4 Tricks: Haven Jumps & Angles - YouTube About my own loadouts, I'll post them soon. My game is in Dutch so I have yet to change that (I'm not sure about all the English names).
Loadout that ive used in everything except btb since forever BR Boltshot Plasma Resupply Dexterity Prometh vision Something like that, BTB loadout, might change the thruster pack DMR Plasma pistol Plasma nades explosives Wheelman (so good with the mantis) Thruster pack
That's hilarious. One time I joined an in progress game of MM Flood, and I spawned as a human, mid-match, with a DMR. Slightly unfair, me thinks.
Titmar was showing me some of the "giving-flood-players-other-weapons mods" and that's the effect. Personally the magnum is my favorite, it blends in seamlessly unlike most other weapons. Think binary was pretty cool too.
It's also either a Reach Active Camo, or the Hacker ability. Does anyone know if that's a skin for H4's DMR, or an actual Reach DMR? If it's an actual Reach DMR, I'd like to see the Plasma Rifle back too. Maybe they can even use this to return the ability to play as an Elite?
Yay for modding potential, also 343i is stupid. Seriously... why is the Reach DMR still saved on the Halo 4 disc? Sounds like a waste of space to me, considering that they gave us TWO discs..
I doubt removing all of the unused assets (even assuming there are lots more than those shown there) would be enough to bump it down to 1 disc, so meh.
