I dont think a marine could rip a turret that weighs a couple of hundred pouds off of a pedistal and use it to combat the covanant. Spartans could do that because they are just cool like that, but a marine? And if they did weild the turret, shouldn't it be very inacurate?

Didn't they take that out, along with dual wielding?

Crap.

Well, considering it's the future, i'm pretty sure they would have predicted needing a mobile turrent so they probaly made it very simple to "Yank" out of the tripod on which it sit. making it easy to to carry the gun, along with a the seperate tripod.

One of the ODST firefight pics has one guy holding the turrent.

This thread is pointless because they have already shown video of a marine using a detached turret.

  • 07.23.2009 10:48 AM PDT

I'm pretty sure that only applies to Firefight.
For gameplay purposes.

they shouldnt take out duel welding because if an odst can carry a 100-200 pound turret;i am sure they can hold two smgs

Or we could remember that its just a game and having a walking turret may make the later waves a little easier.

What I'd like to see Bungie do is make the turret detachable and then re-attachable, so you could take it wherever you so please and then stick it back in the ground again in a more appropriate place (based on your judgement of a more appropriate place).

that'd be cool

Ich bin Reptar!

I thought Bungie said only Spartans were able to detach turrets because of their strength. I do recall them saying that.

They do have detachable turrets ((for Firefight definatly)) Yes I think its stupid but I'm going to use it to my advantage.

Bro, I don't think it weighs hundeds of pounds.


then why would it slow master chief down so much?!?!?!?!

Ninjabag the tea-pirates!

I don't want to join your group.

I think it's only in firefight which makes no sense and doesn't have to be realistic.

  • 07.23.2009 11:10 AM PDT

I would like to invite you to the most active group there is, Black Water Ops.. Boasting over 3,000 members this is one of the fastest growing groups and proven to be one of the most active b.net groups. An amazing experience awaits you with weekly game nights, photo contests, and forging contests. This is one decision you won't regret.

It's already in the game. You can't change it. It's stupid, but it's happening. ODSTs wouldn't be strong enough to rip a turret from it's mount and carry it around.

It probably slows Chief down so much so he wouldn't be so inaccurate. Also the M134D only weights a maximum of 66.1 lbs.
