I'm not posting this in waypoint because 90% of the people there believe it is. I just don't understand how, especially compared to the AR which IMO acquires very little skill. I thought AR was considered the biggest "noob" weapon, at least in Reach but from what I seen on the Halo 4 forums, DMR is the new AR.
I always assumed more skillful players choose the DMR because you need to have good aim. If your aim is horrible, the DMR is nearly useless. So can someone care to explain as to why it's now the "noobiest" weapon in Halo 4?

I prefer the BR or Carbine, for two reasons. 1. It's absolutely hilarious to me when I bowl over some kiddies who took the easy button option with either of the two guns I mentioned up above at range or up close when they got the drop on me. 2. I'm not an asshole who kills your ghost by putting a clip into it. I grow some balls and highjack you, because I love my vehicle perks. But generally, the bane of any fun game in halo 4 are sniper rifles, and the DMR. Being able to spawn with a weapon that can cross the map works just as well as spawning with a pocket shotgun, which oddly, I've had no bad experiences with. Anywho, off track here, it's the easiest weapon to use, right alongside the AR. Which I assume why it's in the noob weapon spot.
