Im sorry, but I was expecting somthing cool and original from bungie when it came to re-loading while dual wielding. But I guess not.... They stuck to the good ole re-load with your foot technique, from back in the N64 days. The master cheif re-loads with one hand! He can even shoot with the other gun while re-loading the second. Isn't that imposible? I mean unless he has those cool ammo clips laura croft had in tomb raider, even so, re-loading a needler like that is impossible.

I say fix this!

The chief has ammo clips on his suit, all he has to do to reload the smg is slam a clip from the suit into the gun, but it still takes like 4 times as long to reload a dual wielded SMG as it does to reload a single one. Besides, the SMG is the only dual wielded weapon so far that NEEDS to reload, the plasma guns dont reload, and the Needler reloads on it's own (And has the fastest dual wielding reload time I've seen)

Regardless, it is original for em to change the reload speeds of different guns while dual wielding. As I've said, the SMG is one of the best guns to DW because of it's rate of fire, but it takes the longest to reload while DW. It's balanced

He has clips on the side of his suit that he slams into his gun? Have you even seen how the SMG reloads? And I don't think the needler re-loads on its own.

If your talking about how the Guns just disappear off screen while reloading, this will be changed. The final Reloading animations for Daul Wielding weren't present at the E3 2004 demo.

Taht was only for E3. The actual game will have some pretty slick duel weilding reloads. It has been mentioned in several updates.

Veteran member of The Frozen Minority.

If it bother's you soo much about how he reloads his dual wielding weapons, maybe Bungie should just take dual wielding out?... Ya, I figured saying that would change your mind on this whole ordeal.
