Thanks for the explanation, Dani. I think I prefer hit scan. It should make for less frustrating encounters from distance.Dani said:Wiki does it good.

The BR in Halo 2 IS hitscan, whilst Halo 3's BR is not. Halo 3's BR also has a wider spread when fired, each pull of the trigger fires a burst of three bullets that hit in slightly different locations in the direction you aimed.
Together with lag, non hitscan and the wider spread, a kill that should take four shots under perfect conditions can take a lot more.
