link me to a youtube video, you are trying to convince me my opinion is wrong remember

Lag Agreed killcams are laggy i watched 3 today where i was shot around corners/ through walls but it was foreign host it happens

It is a common opinion however as someone that has loadouts with the DMR, BR, and Assault Rifle i view it as perfectly balanced.

You may have killed my friend as he was like, 'wtf someone just shot the grenade out of my hand and i died!!'

Do a nade test when you jump into a game (if it delays coming out you are lagging) then just simply quit out and try again there is no penalty in doing so.

Close range it is easily defeated. And no weapon ever no matter how good will defend against a good flanking player cos the DMR certainly doesn't shoot backwards. People just need more situational awareness cos i am yet to see a problem with this gun. For the first 3 days i used the BR before creating a loadout with the DMR and my k/d and performance hasn't changed at all.

Every weapon has it's place. I am a precision weapon guy yet some maps warrant an AR back up. Adapt is the word. Yeah the DMR is powerful but in my opinion it is very balanced. I'm surprised there isn't more people coming on saying the Binary Rifle with 1 hit kills anywhere is unbalanced but it is all about the DMR

You know what i totally forgot about this weapon. An automatic weapon with a 2x scope in this game would have been amazing.

So cos i go in to big team with a full party of 8 and don't contribute a real lot cos i am playing with my mates invalidates my opinion and what i do in FFA's? I shouldn't have to explain the context of every game i play to you bud. Dude no one takes forum posts too seriously and anyone that does has issues lol. For me anyway i've seen you around and you contribute to the topic i quite like what you have to say.

Come on people don't feed the troll.

To be honest i totally agree. This is what Halo is meant to be. You know what i have never heard in this game yet? A complaint about AR starts, now that was the real atrocity of all halo games prior.

Ive had many games where a team mate has quit, then a team mate has joined, and we have still won. Team mate quitting does not mean insta-loss, however we might have lost if we didn't get a 4th back.

Yeah man let us just make the DMR an ordinance drop

You just answered your own question bud. If the Didact was dead... it is a trilogy i highly doubt they went to the trouble of setting up his character for him to just fall to his death in a cut scene.

Halo 4 will always have a steady fan base. Personally at the moment i love it. And by no means is that a biased opinion cos i thought Reach was a train wreck and did not play a whole lot of it. I don't rate H4 higher than i rate Halo 3. If i am still playing it in 12 months then there is a very strong chance it will be my favourite. Now mate, that is my opinion and my perception. I am not going to sit here and argue with you cos we have a different perception on the same game. You are entitled to think that and while you think my comments are bizarre i stand by what i said. Every game ever released by nature peaks at launch and slowly creeps down to a core fan base. That is a fact not just something i randomly made up so i stand by what i have said. I think it is bizarre that you can not comprehend logical facts. The community won't miss you if you go play something else, and i will only miss you cos i am pretty sure you would only boost my k/d.

I don't know where you pulled those stats from but i dont think i have ever placed 14th? I dont even think there is a playlist on H4 with 14 places? Don't try to fabricate my placements to invalidate my opinion buddy

Mate i am glad there is people like you on the forums with some common sense. I was starting to think i was the only one but you just got to remember the 'nerf squad' are the vocal minority and sometimes i just forget that until i see logical posts like your own. Bloom is a large factor that made me quit Reach. I played Halo 2 and 3 online for many years and i quit Reach after a couple months and havent played a Halo game online for over a year. This game is a breath of fresh air and a modern take on a great franchise.

I hear what you are saying but i am going to have to disagree. At close range based on playing every day since launch my experience suggests that at close range an Assault Rifle has a much quicker kill time than a DMR. I believe in my experiences that is fact and unless shown some testing to refute that fact i maintain my opinion that at close range AR > DMR

Could not agree more. Anyone that plays in a team playlist should be able to demonstrate skills of team work and lone wolfing, a blend of both not just one or the other. Someone who wastes time on stealing an assassination isn't worth loading up my back pack with to carry to a win.

I would take the guy who went +4 cos he contributed more to his team. Especially in this game where 1 bullet warrants an assist medal, they are handing out assists like hotcakes. A good team every one will go positive. Within my core group of players in a 4v4 match we generally get 10-15 kills each 6-12 assists each and 0-10 deaths each. An average game usually goes 14 8 and 6 for example.

No matter how hard i try it is only letting me like this post just once, and that is disappointing cos i feel exactly the same. Nothing is OP and nothing is broken. The only thing broken is people with negative k/d's with a false perception that they are 'boss' at this game keep getting killed by something that they are not to be blamed for. It isn't their fault, it is the games fault. I hit the like button after reading the first sentence then continued to read lol cos it is soo damn true

I apologise for being rude, but do you think it is not rude for you to come here and say the game is broken based on your opinions? Halo isn't bleeding players. There was always going to be a certain group of players that didn't like this game and move on. There was always going to be a certain group players that only played for a week until Blops 2 dropped. That was just a fact that i am sure 343 anticipated. What is left is a core group of players making up the population that enjoy the game for what it is worth, not what the vocal minority who want it changed for their benefit. Many other online game developers would kill for a population that Halo 4 pulls in a day.

Seriously i do not know what all the fuss is about. The removal of bloom has been the best thing since sliced bread. The DMR is a skill based weapon and honestly i don't know why people come on and complain about 'not being able to poke my head out without getting shot' ... aren't we playing an FPS where that is the concept of the game? I don't know what people are talking about that you don't have to aim this gun. I know there is a degree of bullet magnetism as there is in EVERY FPS on console but to say that you don't need to aim the gun, well how about you go out in the next game with a DMR and refuse to aim lol. I know when i miss i miss due to my aim and when i hit i hit cos of my aim, no other factors involved. If you are basing what you are saying on killcams well then you are just silly really. Everyone knows killcams are laggy that is just a fact. I have had killcams where i am not even on the snipers screen and i die. Do i complain? No. Cos they lag, you can't take them at face value and claim the game is broken or a weapon is broken based on a laggy kill cam. The DMR is fine, it doesn't need to be nerfed or tweaked. It is a 'precision weapon' and people are complaining cos it is 'accurate at long range'??? Seriously guys, go through the learning curve of a new game and then come back with an honest logical opinion instead of an emotional statement asking for things to be changed cos you just can't handle what is in front of you.

I don't know what game you guys are playing but i reckon about 1 third of every player i have played against spams the AR. It is a beast, not something i would use for my gamestyle but soo many people are using it to great effect.

Agreed, especially when it is 1) a commendation 2) a certain kill anyway 3) not always easy to come by 4) just plain cheap
