Battle Rifle

The Battle Rifle is a high damage, burst-fire rifle, which deals exceptional damage on a headshot. It also features a scope for long-range combat.

Advantages

 * It is extremely easy to land headshots, given a single pull of the trigger will fire 3 shots in rapid succession.


 * The Battle Rifle has a decent firerate, given it's burst-fire functionality.
 * A Battle Rifle can be found on nearly every map in the game. This leaves the potential to pick up one at any time if you need a quick weapon to switch to.
 * The Battle Rifle is equipped with a scope that can be used to deal with targets at longer ranges. (Keep in mind the scope does NOT change the weapon's accuracy or recoil, it merely zooms in.)

Disadvantages

 * You will run through your magazine rather quickly, given that each pull of the trigger results in 3 rounds being fired.
 * The Battle Rifle 's accuracy makes it difficult to use in close-quarters if you do not have good aim.

Trivia

 * First burst-fire weapon in the game, in the current version, the only burst-fire weapon.
 * Originally had a different mesh of an M4, but it was scrapped as it was only as a placeholder, and, in Fear's opinion, too generic.
 * One of the 3 weapons in game with a scope. (DMR, Battle Rifle, and Anti-Materiel Rifle.)
