In 343's bulletin last week, they said they have been looking into tweaking the weapons in Halo 4. Their reasoning was that it was basically a one gun game with the DMR. They didn't go into much detail last week, though. But this week, they gave a quick overview of what they're working on. NOTE: THESE ARE NOT FINAL, STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS.
DMR
They are leaving the DMR untouched.
Battle Rifle
They are looking to buff the BR from a 5 shot kill to a 4 shot kill and also reduce the rate of fire.
Light Rifle
They said all they've done is increase the range at which the reticle turns red. I'm not sure what that changes, maybe increased Aim Assist for longer ranges?
Covenant Carbine
They have buffed Carbine to now have a 7 shot kill instead of a 8 shot kill.
Assault Rifle, Storn Rifle, Suppressor
They said they have given these weapons a damage buff but also decreased the aim assist.
Beam Rifle
Looking into possibly nerfing the Beam Rifle's Aim Assist
Vehicles
Looking to buff Mantis and Warthog Chainguns.
So what are your thoughts on these possible changes? Would they help balance the game?
