ok i have been reading tons of articles and in everyone so far they said anything single handed will be able to be duel wielded so in the E3 pictures it shows that he holds it with one hand so will you be able to duel energy swords im sure you will be able to.
No
you wont be able to, its a "big" weapon, thats why you cant, the "one handedness" does not matter
and that would be a tad unbalanced

No, definitely not, anyway why would you want to duel wield it, that would be kinda dumb, sure its great for close range, but say some guy is up on the hill with a sniper rifle, um... i think you're gonna die.
I'm positive the plasma rifle can be deul weilded. Plus, since it has no scope it would be at a big disadvantage if it could not be. It would be almost useless otherwise. On the subject of the swords, I think one would be quite enough. I don't see it having any effect unless you could swing both at once and decapitate some covies.[Edited on 7/21/2004 10:02:23 AM]
i wouldnt want to dual wield energy swords. it would be too easy
the plasma pistol was one of the best weapons in Halo. why would it become useless in halo 2? oh and dual plasma sword doesn't make since. seeing how one hit from a sword kills anyone than what would be the point of having two?[Edited on 7/21/2004 8:56:26 AM]
you are WRONG. you cnat this hase been discussed. its too unbalanced.

energy sword duel wieldable? i doubt it, i hope not. it would be stupid.but i do wonder if jackal shields are gonna be useable, and if so will they be useable with the sword? just speculating... god that would be sweeeet.
Posted by: focused7the plasma pistol was one of the best weapons in Halo. why would it become useless in halo 2? In my opinion, one would probably use the Covenant Carbine instead of the Plasma Rifle in Halo 2, unless of course you could deul weild the plasma rifle, which would make it more useful. No disrespect to the plasma rifle. It was one of my favorites in Halo.
the plasma rifle is duel-wieldable, the carbine is single handed. an smg and a plasma weapon are going to be lethal combinations...oh and it would seem that a standard hit from a energy sword is not fatal, just very damaging. otherwise the "lockon" big hit would be pointless.
2 plasma swords = 2x as likely to be seen by sniperresult: not very good
I think that 2x sword would really be sorta useless... If you really wanna double weild with a sword, go sword one hand, gun in the other.Of course thatll never happen.

The Energy sword is a one hit kill so why would you need two of them?
so if u cant hold two plasma swords...how about a plasma sword in one hand and a single handed weapon in the other hand?
Oops, I meant plasma rifle all along. The plasma pistol is useful when charging it, but I wouldn't use it unless duel weilding it with another weapon. I was trying to say the carbine would take the place of the plasma rifle, unless it could be duel weilded. Nothing would take the place of the plasma pistol. My bad.
Its not the fac that its 2 swords, its the fact you could have an SMG and a Sword, negating its only con.
you can't melee attack when dual weilding, so having 2 swords would be pointless, since you couldn't attack.
