ForgeMonitor Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 I think the Designated Marksman Rifle is a redundant, unimaginative weapon that destroys map movement and player creativity. Its semiautomatic feel can easily be replaced with the more balanced Halo CE Pistol, and its sizable clip is closely matched by that of the Battle Rifle. What do you think?

SykoWolf Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 The DMR is a more accurate weapon designed to make a cross over of a sniper and a Assault rifle.. it's Precise,strong and requires skill to handle properly... So no, it isn't redundant in my point of view... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36-2071 Pragmatic Avarice Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 The DMR is extremely powerful, very little chance you can't peel off an opponents shields as quickly as possible. It's unbelievable that it's in your default ordnance selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Picardo Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 For Halo 5 i want a UMR Ultimate Marksman Rifle. Its like the DMR but no need for head shot on the fifth shot. Also its full auto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l Xenoes l Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I would like the DMR to go away and never return. It's just like having a sniper rifle just not as powerful. It's turns Big Team Slayer into a giant DMR campfest and like you said ruins player creativity and map movement. It's why I stopped playing Big Team games because all players do it sit back and long range DMR people. And there's barely any weapon diversity in this game. If it's not the DMR, Bolt Shot, or a power weapon barely anybody uses it or picks it up. Can't count how many times people pass up the Needler, Rail Gun, and Sticky Detonator. It's quite sad. The DMR being OP has all but eliminated the point of the Carbine returning. I got it into the Master tier of the commendation but, put it down because of it's inability to keep up with the DMR at both close and mid range.

PlexVanguard Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I dont get what the complaints are with the DMR. I can see the logic that it starts trench wars in BTB, but at the same time, if you even half know what you are doing with the BR, you can kick a DMR user's butt with its superior rate of fire.

ForgeMonitor Posted January 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 @PlexVanguard if two players have perfect shots with the BR and DMR, the DMR will always win. The DMR has better range, barely any bloom, ridiculous aim assist, a faster kill time, a higher kill-to-clip ratio, and better shot registration. If it has to return in Halo 5, then it must at least fire slower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
