In Halo CE you could not hold duel weapons. But in halo 2 and halo 3 you were able to duel wield two weapons at one time. Then In Halo 3: ODST you are no longer able to. My question is, would u like to see duel wielding in Halo Reach?

Edit: in the pole i ment like they did in ODST

Remove dual wielding so I can use my favorite weapon effectively again (Plasma Rifle)

I'm a fan of choice, and duel Spikers. Yes.

Why could you not dual wield in ODST?

Because you are not a spartan.

Why could you not dual wield in Halo CE?

Because Bungie either hadn't thought of creating a dual wielding system in Halo CE or they didn't have the time to implement it.

Don't confuse the two. Reach will totally have dual wielding.

ODST = Too small to dual-wield
Spartan = Can dual-wield

Why shouldn't you be able to dual-wield in Reach?

Because it makes those select weapons obsolete on thier own most of the time.

I disagree. I can kick ass as easily with an SMG, Spiker, or plasma rifle as I can with an AR. Dual wielding simply maximizes my bullet output at a cost to my grenade abillity.

I would be fine either way but I expect that you will be able too duel-wield because your a spartan, not a normal soldier and Bungie has made all their games with Spartans have duel-wield ability with the exception of CE, but like someone already said they hadn't even thought of it yet or didn't have the time.

Everyone here is saying dual-wielding is because of Spartans. I always thought it was timeline based. CE and ODST didn't have dual-wielding because they were before 2. Since Reach takes place before even CE, I think they should take the dual-wielding out and save it for a game that's actually a sequel.
