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?

There' always that one gun that all the kids cry about in Halo multiplayer. The BR was the king in Halo 2 and 3 and the DMR usurped it. I think everyone simply hates it because it is probably the most user friendly to excel with, but a person who is good with any other mid-range weapon like the Carbine can easily stomp on a DMR user. The only time this won't happen is at extreme range, but you souldn't be fighting a DMR at long range with a mid-range weapon...
