Bungie had it in halo 3 but they took it out of halo 3:odst cause you are a ODST,but in reach i think u are going to be a spartan so they should let us duel wield.

Most kills in the world with the Storm rifle in halo 4, the Plasma Repeater in halo reach, and the Plasma rifle in halo 3.

i agree duel welding adds variety without needing to make new weapons

And as always, SEND ME A PM. Please. Or really bad things will happen to you.

I don't see why not. Duel-wielding makes matchmaking more fun.

It should be in the game, but you should be able to hit with both weapons, making the hit stronger but still not enough to kill in one go (the normal hit should only take away about half your sheilds) that way it will still have a reason to use them yet not be overpowered.

Yeah plus it gives noobs a chance since they aren't good with aimming.

they should but they should make it a bit more balanced it was always annoying in halo 3 when people were duel wielding plasma rifles and smgs

Dual wielding is one of the base Halo aspects. I will assure you we will be able to duel wield. Plus, I'm pretty sure we play as spartans, so yes.


Though, some places say Mark 6 was the first armor to be able to track both weapons. It'd be cool if they did like the Halo Wars Spartans did. Shoot the right gun, lower it, then bring the left gun and shoot it.

Dual wielding is a very good tactic. (specially for the camping matches) It also helps when no power weapons or BRs are around to pick up.
