I don't like how we can't place any weapons in the supply cases or drop pods in Halo 3's multiplayer.

It is important that the drop pods and supply cases work as weapon holders like they do in campaign.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Not really. Creative forgers will place those drop pods and weapons to make it look like what it is; a pod dropped from high in the air to supply infantry on the ground. The reason the weapons didn't fall out in campaign was because the pelicans that dropped them were at a low height.

That's the logical explanation. The real reason is that it is likely harder to program than you think. It's one thing to do it in campaign, where the event and the object is scripted, and another thing entirely when players start placing them all over a map, and placing weapons in them.

You're still making excuses Cheeto.

Listen, man. I don't care if it's harder to do. Both the supply cases and drop pods are supposed to contain weapons.

If Bungie can make a weapon holder that holds guns in place, I'm sure if they put forth the effort, they could make the drop pods and supply cases usable.

Same goes for those shelves that are in some of the multiplayer levels that you can't put anything on.

Taking the easy way out is unacceptable.

If a weapon looks like it could go somewhere, I should be abe able to put one there.

Symbolic, has it ever occured to you that the drop pods in Forge are meant to be SCENERY; NOT -blam!- WEAPON DELIVERY PODS!

Shhhhh.... Don't message me, I probably don't care. Sweet!

Do It!

ok seriously guys.... its not thaaaat big of a deal! and yes bungie should fix these issues. symbolic has the right idea. if its a supply pod, its should be able to hold SUPPLIES! they put them into the campaign to show you where you can find guns and ammo... but when you get to them they aren't empty. im not a big forge person but if they put it in there, it should work!
