I hope we will be able to lower our weapons in FireFight and Story mode.

My troll sense is tingling.

I hope so, some people could try to make some machinima.

What is the point in this? We may as well choose whether we are left handed or right handed and shoot with whichever hand. This would just complicate things and there really wouldn't be that much of a benefit.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

It's not really needed in this game since there is no real multiplayer mode.

There's 4 player Online Story mode. I could make so many awesome Movies. If we could lower are weapons in the game.

Yes, I'm the guy who had the Flood admit to being furries.

If you are playing in "local" and using the button combination then I would think so, regardless if its firefight or Campaign. Much like how you can lower your weapon in Halo 3.

If they do that i'll be mad but I think Bungie wished they put lowering your weapon on XBL.
It kinda seem like they wanted to add it to XBL but they couldn't.

I remember they said something about an exploit if they allowed it over online. Not sure what it was, though.

Yea. The reason they toke it out of Halo 3 because it gave players a advantage when playing Matchmaking. But sense the game is all about you facing Covenant AIs there should be a reason not to.

The reason was to avoid modders making their opponent's weapons be permanently lowered in matchmaking so it's logical that they'll add it.

Ninjabag the tea-pirates!

I don't want to join your group.

Not really because there's no machinima compatible modes really, although you could use firefight for flashbacks and the like in halo 3 machinimas.

What? there's is 4 player online story mode in a big city free to roam.
That would be perfect for a Machinima.
