OMFG! WATCH THE VIDEO AT KIKIZO.COM! the one that start off with the shotgun.


What about it? The only thing it shows is using a plasma rifle and an smg together, it doesnt show anything about dropping weapons....

Your either blind, or watching the wrong video.


NOTHING IN THE DAM SHOTGUN ONE HAS ANYTHING TO SUPPORT YOUR ARGUMENT THERE

Exactly! He mentioned the shotgun video and it has no proof to support his ideas. I was trying to tell him that!

Lets see in Halo 1 MC had a single slot for holstering. If he could holster two weaposn then you could carry three in Halo 1 dual weilding or not. So lets see, I have to change to my other weapon with two guns in my hands but only a spot that can hold. The LAWS of mathmatics state that you could not holster these two weapons. Are you going to argue with MATH???? As for dropping the second weapon if you wanted to throw a grenade, how else would it work, we already determined there is no second holster so what does MC now have 3 arms. Now who has common sense?


wtf? laws of mathematic? what do u mean you can't holster two weapons?

Supertoy, thats what i meant. you can have 2 weapons for dual wielding (2 needlers) , and one other weapon (battle rifle).

Yes thats fine, but you cant keep both Needlers when you switch to your Battle Rifle!

NO! NO! Hes reloading it! He flings the clip to the left (and you cant see it because it goes to his left) and he drops it down to slide it across a spare mag on his person. (seeing as he cant use his hands to reload it).

yeah he was talking about a totally different video and he reloads it. thats why it disappears off screen. At first that confused me too but I soon relaised that its reloading.

Thats exactly what he means. You are either Dual-Wielding 2, and holstering 1, or Wielding 1 and holstering 1. YOU CANT HOLSTER 2 WEAPONS!

Did any of you read the Bungie weekly update? he said you carry three weapons at a time 2 weapons take up 2 slots an example of this is you pick up another Smg to compliment the one you already have, so you just keep switching through your available weapons in your inventory of weapons with the Y button until you find the weapon set you have, It seems I'm the only one that seems to understand the concept that I've described several times.

Because all weapons count as 1 weapon.

E.g. In halo one, a pistol and plasma pistol was considered the same as a fuel rod gun and a rocket launcher and its not gonna change.

ALSO IF YOU WANT TO PICK UP A DIFFERENT WEAPON THEN YOU FDROP ONE OR BOTH OF THE SMGS TO PICK UP EITHER ANOTHER ONE HANDED WEAPON OR TWO HANDED WEAPON ---TO DO THIS PRESS X---

READ THE UPDATE U STUPID WHORE

Lets read it together.

Well, if you're holding a weapon in one hand, and you have another "holstered" you can dual-wield a third. That means the reserve weapon simply stays put when you pick up the dual-wield weapon. Effectively that lets you have three weapons at one time.

Discrete Mathematics. Its called pigeon holing. MC has a single weapon holster. That means he can only holster one weapon. I have two weapons in my hand, I can't have to things fit in a slot that only holds one. That is a discrete mathematic law. Here's the analogy for pigeon holes where this idea got its name. Say the weapons are pigeons. The holster slots are the holes pigeons live in. You have ONE pigeon hole but two pigeons. That means only one pigeon can go in the hole or only ONE weapon can be holstered MEANING you would have to drop your second weapon when ever you switch weapons (like say from two SMGs to a BR, one of the SMGS would have to be dropped). Did I spell it out for you enough?
