I was wondering if any on else thinks that being able to select every individual weapon in a multi player level at the game settings creations menus would be awesome.

i would love to elimanate the rocket launcher in some games!!!

yea there are certain weapon spawnpoints the admin of the server chooses what weapon goes where or you can have default which is what bungie has made for that map also you could change the time for certain weapons to spawn like it takes the sniper rifle and rocket launcher longer to respawn than it does the needler and Battle Rifle

That'd be cool if the host was shown the layout of the map with all the weapon spawn points and could replace each one with a weapon of his/her choice and he/she could choose the starting weapons and vehicles.

Imagine 1 flag ctf Zanzibar if the offense had only smg's and the defense all had plasma/energy swords.

It hasn't been confirmed. It would be cool though. Except the spawn times, that should be untouched.

So basically, you're saying it would be cool if the host could, well, be in god mode of the level (choosing how many weapons, vehicles, ect.)? Yeah, that would be cool. Take out everything noobish, add weapons here or there.

ill stick to default-especially with bungie taking so much time into balancing the weapons. i played custom starting[what bungie says to start with] and default all the time. when my friends try to beat me, they play rockets...but after playing against me in that they dont do that so much anymore too. sounds cool, but i wont mess with it...

Yeah pretty much. But you could still have the default bungie weapon layout for balance.

And it'd be good because some clans might want to use only one type of weapon. I think it was JoeyBagaDonuts that wanted to have a clan called pink panthers that only use needlers. And I bet there will be Jedi teams for swords only.

It would also be could for bragging rights too, because you can brag about kicking another clan's ass with only plasma swords in a massive vehicle battle.

Sorry I just saw your post, it looks like I ripped off your default thing.

Sorry.
