I was wondering what people thought about the idea of Bungie making it so at least in campaign you would always have a Halo 2 magnum as a sidearm no matter what weapons you started the level with. IMO i think that it should, if done, be only for single player, as multiplayer is fine the way it is and campaign rules and laws are less restricted (use of the fuel rod and other things)

Yes thats a good idea. It should only be activated
however if you run out of ammo for all your other
guns.

This is the way our military does it soldiers are
equiped with a sidearm like a berretta or DEAGLE.

Too bad the Barretta and D. Eagle are SECONDARY weapons. That would make a 3rd weapon in the game. It would lose it's effect. Bungie put only 2 guns in for a reason.

yes, exactly what i was thinking, considering when im playing campaign i ONLY like to use the BR, just because i simply like it more (i know that the Carbine is slightly better) but simply like the human weapons a lot more. With that in mind finding ammo for the BR is hard in some areas and me being stubborn would like to be able to take out the pistol and dual wield it with something else, i simply think this would be cool.

On a similar note i do NOT believe that Mulitplayer should have 3 weapons, it would too dramatically change the gameplay.

which is why in the poll there is a choice for Single Player Only, AND you would ONLY be able to hold the MAGNUM as a third weapon and nothing else, if you dual wielded and dropped the magnum that would be it, until you picked up another magnum.....
