im confused about this, are you allowed to dual wield two weapons AND have lets say a Battlerifle, for a total of THREE weapons? I just thought of this and im very confused

Nope. As You saw in the 8 min MP demo, he picked up another needler, then switched for the sword, and automatically picked up the BR :)

yes you will have 3 weapons, watch the e3 demo when stanton dual weilds, he then trades needler and SMG for the plasma sword, says "ill just use this later" and then switches to his battle rifle, which he had the whole time. (proof: he picks up ammo for the battle rifle before picking up the sword)

Yeah it might get confusing though...lets say you had a BR and SMG, then picked up a needler for dual weild with the SMG...and your SMG ran outta ammo and you wanted to keep the needler, youd have to drop both and pick up the needler seperately if you want to use grenades...well not that confusing, its still gonna kick ass.

No in the multiplayer demo he never droped his Battle rifle and when he killed the elite he picked up ammo for the battle rifle and the plasma sword.

wait, i think that youll just have the needler in one hand if you run out of SMG in the other, why would you have to drop it and hten pick it back up? that makes no sense

in halo you threw grenades with you left hand and so you might need to drop the SMG and the needler and then pick up the needler again so your lef hand is free

not sure really, we'll see in november

does anyone know which weapons that will have double-wield capabilities? I'm guessing the battle rifle won't and the RL is a given. Do you think Bungie will include a version of the fuel rod gun or would that be kinda cheap like the PC version?
