Subject: Will we have to be using covie weapons?

i like them, but i like human better. it appears that there's not a good supply of ammo for human weapons. is the superintendant going to replenish ammo, or are we stuck with covie weapons?

Well, there is a location in the game called the New Mombasa Police Department. I would imagine it having ammo inside for your weapons.

i'm not an expert so i may be wrong, but i don't think police carry SMG's even in the station. maybe pistol ammo will be in there.

Maybe not in the city, but in firefight all the people besides your teamates are covenant and their weapons along with them. Unless u have infinate ammo...

you can pick up covie weapons in campaign.

I heard in a gameplay demo you can't pick up covie weapons at all in the campaign, just strictly human weapons. Apparently the plasma pistol is too much for an ODST to handle:)

In the days of old, there were legends of a land long lost to time. This land was known as Ranna'Mor. Ranna'Mor was said to contain in its borders 7 warriors. These warriors had once unleashed a veritable hell upon the ancient world, until they were locked away. My name is Toriad, and I am one of those warriors. Our return is approaching. Do not run away, do not cower in fear; take solace in your final days, for that is all we can do. -Legend of Ranna'Mor

Of course we'll be able to use covenant weapons. If you watch the trailer carefully, you'll see he walk over covenant weapons and be given the options to swap them out.

Why the hell don't people use meh?

I shall explain this for ya remember when all the ODSTs drop down? yes many of them may have died in the impact or killed by covies so there is some ammo scattered around proberly also in buildings i doubt the slipspace made the guns vanish from the fighting in halo 2 you know what i mean

actually yes, in firefight mode you do have infinite ammo. there is an armory where you get ammo from and where you spawn. but in campaign i'm not sure, there may be times where you will have to pick up a covie weapon untill you find ammo for the human ones.

It's not really infinite. You have an armory, but there is only so much in there. It gets replenished with each round, though (along with lives and health)

I suspect there will be dead marines/ODSTs with dropped weapons in the game.
