I will never lose to a BR if I have the DMR, sorry. Maybe you fought bad players or ones that cant aim. bottom line is that DMR currently kills in the same amount of shots , but shoots faster. Range does not change this fact. The only advantage the br has is for swipe shooting kill jacks. 1v1 any range DMR wins. Saying that the BR is better at mid and close range is just trying to make them sound balanced, when they are not. A minor change to 1 gun will change it just enough to give each a purpose. Right now the only purpose of taking a BR is that it looks sick and makes me miss the good old days of H2.
