I was wondering if bungie should make a way in which you can flip your two weapons from left to right or right to left. that will be helpful because some players might get used to always having the SMG in the rigth hand, while others like it on the left. I hope bungie considers this.

Well it looks as if the second gun you pick up goes into your left hand! So if you wanna be picky Im sure you can work a way around!

i'm sure you can drop both weapons and pick them up in the order you desire

What you can do... is say you are holding an SMG... and you come across a PR, but you wanted the PR in your right hand. So what you do is hold X to swap (now the PR is on the right hand and the SMG is on the floor). Now if you want to dual wield the SMG, just hold Y... done in two button presses.

"Help Help I'm being repressed! Come and see the Violence inherent in the system!"
"Bloody peasant!"
"Oh did you see that? you saw him repress me?"

EXAMPLE:

SMG in hands, needler on floor, you want needler on right, SMG on left. press X to pick up needler <in exchange for SMG> then walk over SMG and press Y to duel wield it in left hand.

Simple, but fiddly, might get killed in the process!

I dont think it would really be a problem, I mean you see the Needler in your left hand and the SMG in the other hand Im sure you can work it out... as long as you have some intelligence!

in the books does it say that mc is right handed?
But what if you wanted just one gun but in the left hand?

Yeh, i think that that would be very useful, because I am very good at the plasma pistol for my right hand...and am horrable on it witht the left...so it would be cool if you could swap the weapns that you have from one hand to the other

Creeping_Death and Andz Jones, thanks for saying that so I don't have to. Listen to them, they are right. I wouldn't mind having something to just switch them with the press of one button (afterall, that D-pad is useless in at the moment, unless they already put something on it).
