Halo fans beg 343 to avoid nerfing “perfect” Assault Rifle
Halo Infinite fans want 343 to avoid nerfing the Assault Rifle, as they says it’s “perfect right now.”
Although the game has had less than an ideal reception, witha lack of playlistsandfrustrating challengesduring its release, players still can’t get enough of Halo Infinite.
Suiting up your spartan, grabbing a weapon of choice and going into a gunfight has never been better.
There are over 22 weapons that players can use in the game. Some are littered throughout the map, and others, like the Assault Rifle, get put into Spartans’ hands upon beginning a match.
Halo fans beg 343 to not nerf the Assault Rifle
The Assault Rifle has been a gun in the franchise since its first installment back in 2001,Halo. Even though it took a brief respite during Halo 2, it’s been part of every subsequent title since, andHalo Infiniteis no different.
First brought up by Reddit userthrowingawayboyzon the official Halo subreddit, the Redditor pleaded 343 in their post to “please not nerf the AR.”

They later explained why they felt this way, saying, “I’ve been waiting since 2007 for an AR that’s actually good. Infinite finally delivered. If 343 decides to nerf it back to its mediocre CQC spray down archetype, it’ll be like I lost my son.”
As a gun that’s usually thrown to the wayside in favor of the Battle Rifle in previous Halos, the Assault Rifle seeing more usage is a welcome sight for many Halo fans. This can be seen by the echoing of throwingawayboyz sentiments in the Reddit thread.
“AR is perfect right now. It’s good but it’ll still be beaten by a perfect BR or pistol even at close range,” said one. “Also, I really don’t think it has as much range as people say — it’s in the perfect spot right now.”
