well, obviously, rockets, fuel rod shotgun, and the sniper rifles wouldn't have duel mods, but this would be awesome for weapons like the new human Rifle (pretty sure it is a duel mode AR between full AUto (halo 1) and burst (halo 2) based on what I've heard), as well as the Needler ( give it a charged shot, like a shotgun, where you can unless 1/4- 1/2 of your needler clip at one time.
It seems like the next logical step in upgrading Halos weapons, and it wouldn't be that hard to adapt to. It'd also be great to have a pistol that switched between semi for accurate shots to full auto, like an uzi... which means they could get rid of the SMG and replace it with something like the scorpion M-16... so could blast guys with a devastating machine gun or launch grenades (farther then you could throw them... could be a different type of nade as welll... like one that explodes on contact)
I think they should limit it to duel-mode weapons.... there aren't many tri-mode weapons and most aren't pratical (a semi AR isn't very practical on the battle field, for example)
Switching between modes could easily be done with the right or left bumper ( these replaced the black and clea/white buttons... they're located above the triggers... they're basically like a second trigger (see PS and PS2 controller as well as XBOX 360 controller, but they're not trigger shaped). Easy, fast and defiently deadly... now thats the way I like it
