Subject: how do i calculate weapon/power up spawns in the not mlg playlists

im pretty sure that in MLG the weapons always spawn at a certain time like the sniper always spawn about 12:26 9:52 7:18 etc in a 15 minutes game,(not sure about the exact time) is it the same system in team slayer/lone wolfs/team doubles? correct me if im wrong

and as for power ups do they always spawn 2/3 minutes (2 minutes in mlg,3 minutes in the rest) after the time they are first picked up in team slayer/lone wolfs/team doubles?

one more question can you "dirty" the weapons (alter the respawn times) in the playlists i mentioned earlier? im pretty sure you cant.any help will be nice :)

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.

depends on the map and weapon


on maps like valhalla and snowbound when you pick up the sniper the respawn counter doesn't start until you stand still with it for 2 seconds, and then i believe it's a 3 minute spawn.

Halo 3 forever!

Go into forge and on the default maps, press X when looking at an item and it will tell you how many seconds until it respawns(the timer starts once you drop the weapon or object)

So if I hold an empty rocket launcher the whole match w/o dying say on The Pit, it won't respawn again?

I've never understood the respawn times. Sometimes I can time the weapons sometimes it seems like they never come back.

Play with me and I'll tell you whenever weapons are going to spawn.

Tell me your secrets.

Also the Forge variants of the maps aren't the ones you find in Matchmaking so those times are unreliable. But if I want to know when the shotgun is going to respawn on Narrows I'll be sure to check and make note of that.

Is it like that on every map that you need to stand still with the weapon before the respawn counter starts or does it depend on the map to?
