If the spartans were the only ones strong enough to carry the chain guns and missile pods? How come now the ODSTroops can lift the chain guns and such in Halo 3 ODST?

So what? Why do ODSTs use SPARTAN lazers? Why not ODST lazers? No one cares.

you cannot use them in campaign only in firefight which focuses on gameplay rather than story/canon/making sense

Own and read fall of reach, the flood, first strike, ghosts of onyx, the cole protocol, contact harvest and evolutions

i actually agree i think that they should have made it so you can't pick them up.

(btw the spartan laser was never built directly for use by the spartans
*quote from halopedia*
It is unclear how the W/AV M6 G/GNR was given the battlefield moniker Spartan Laser. It is possible that the first wielder of the weapon was a SPARTAN-II super-soldier. Another possible reason for the nomenclature is that Spartans are symbols of invincible death machines capable of destroying vast numbers of enemy equipment and personnel. It could also be because of the marked styling similarities between the weapon and the MJOLNIR armor of a SPARTAN-II. This is most easily seen during the cutscene that starts the Halo 3 level The Covenant (Level). At the end of the cutscene, when the Pelican containing the Master Chief touches down, the Master Chief is seen in the right side of the screen lifting a Spartan Laser off of a rack inbetween the seats and the troop bay door and shouldering the weapon, making a visual comparison between the Spartan Laser and the Master Chief's armor easy*end quote.)

Moron,in Halo 2 those Marines are carrying MUCH smaller versions of the human turret.

it may be for the same reason that elites do not appear. it runs on halo the halo engine, so the game may HAVE to let you pick it up. this is pure speculation

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

You can only use them in firefight which isn't cannon. In campaign you can't. They just made it for Firefight because it would be funner.
