either way, i like the changes. now sapwn us with the BR on large maps!

 

[op_ivy]

aha! found it

Battle rifle has had a difference between host and client fixed according to a post by Frankie on TXB, and it should be a small difference, but folks seem to be liking it.

in this very thread! :lol

suck it bitch

This "Frankie" obviously isn't telling all about the BR updates, cause the BR is just hella accurate now, as the video shows.

Technically the BR itself didn't change, but there was a bug that got fixed that affected accuracy of headshot weapons on the client. What you're seeing is how the BR was supposed to work, rather than anything done specifically to that weapon.

So you were right, op_ivy - but I actually found a Bungie quote, so.....redemption! :lol

Woohoo, I can finally play again! Not that I played much with anyone here except Wario anyway, but, yeah...

My Xbox had been working on & off for the past few weeks, but my brother and I split the cost of a new one, so now I'm back in business. I'm signing on now to download the patch and play for the first time since January. :-O

I got the update and been playin and I really do like the changes. THE GRENADES..they are my friends...as for the sniper shooting..i can't tell the difference. Haven't tried the BR but I plan on it. I hate the BR/PP combo...grrr....so far i see a difference but its effective in the right hands.

Don't think that was ever touched in the update. only smg/magnum was weakened.

plasma pistol / br is the same as well (although the br is slightly diff due to update) but the "pussy combo" situation is "an equipment issue not a balance issue" so they will take some plasma pistols of the map etc in a future playlist update.

no, its been mentioned several times by bungie themselves, even in the weeky whats what update before it hit

Other slight reductions include the softening of the Plasma Rifle and SMG combo, to bring it in line with other combos. Experts will notice the difference.

this is one of my favorite combos (especially for ivory tower), and i dont notice a difference. curious what they altered
