OK - that's a "loaded" question but I'm having trouble getting the hang of which gun is best and play Black Ops 2 more than Halo 4. In Black Ops 2 I'm an SMG kinda-guy and like the "run-n-gun" approach. Any suggestions?
The DMR kills the most effectively, both close range and long. And yes, switching from Call of Duty to Halo is a big change. You need to be patient, pace shots and you can't really rush into other teams spawns and expect to mow them down like you would on CoD.
The DMR is the best in my eyes. The Battle Rifle is a close second, but I have seen a few people really use the Carbine effectively. There is a difference, but it isn't going to be a game-changer. There is no substitute for overall map knowledge and gun skill. I'll take either of those over which gun most prefer any day. Try them out and see what you like. As your skill increases, stick with what makes you most comfortable.
If we are talking about power weapons, the Rail Gun seems to be the most powerful (to me). It kills short range, medium range AND long range very well. Because of this, it effectively switches the pace of the game and whoever has it, the other team has to play cautiously and defensively. Especially in Team Doubles.
