I think we should be given to option to 'dock' or 'store' our weapons on, say, a warthog or scorpion tank. Maybe covenant vechiles could do this too. This reason is so we could carry a sniper rifle and a BR on our person, then holster a rocket launcher on the warthog. Although this may reduce difficulty, it adds to the realism of battle and amounts to some new strategies. This means you can bring more weapons to a battle.

To go along with this holstering improvement, i think we should be able to holster our dual wielded weapons. On the level Halo in Halo 3, i believe Thel 'Vadam can holster both of his plasma rifles on his hip.

Group invites will be treated very poorly because the Care Package is empty.

Give your weapons to your team mates. Not only are they more mobile than their vehicles but they fire back at the enemy for you and they are always within the reach of your rifle butt if you know what I mean.

On legendary your teammates die (unless you're some uber player who never dies in any mission and makes all your squad survive) Those grunts and bruteshots take out marines in 2 seconds. While you're busy getting the guy with the fuel rod of the turret or the sniper, your teammates who are supposed to carry your weapons onto the next part of the level are getting pummled. I'm sure if bungie added this in very few would complain.

I actually like this idea.

Great idea! It would have to limited though or things would get out of hand. What I mean is you could only store one or two weapons per vehicle.

Ah, so this would be for campaign only right? Makes a tiny bit more sense now. But even still it might be unneccesary. You are a spartan in a squad of five. Presumably you are going to fight together for most of the game. They aren't going to die as easily as the marines are. Give them your weapons.
