Oh...My...God...I can't barely keep up with you idiots today. If you don't like dual weilding, DON'T PICK UP THE SECOND GUN.

And if you can't keep up with those who do with up two guns....get more skilled with the one gun you have, or sit at home in your closet and cry you big baby.

Do not ever call someone an idiot, since you said "can't barely." You are the idiot. It makes the game very unbalanced as it is, so dual wielding must go. If it gets rebalanced, such as with the inclusion of the health meter, then it should stay. Either way, it needs rebalancing.

EDIT: I see I was rambling. My final vote is to balance dual wielding but do not remove it if possible. It cannot stay how it is, however.

Some of the problems include reloading. First off, reloading dual pistols seems to take too long, but it does not make sense at all since you cannot reload two weapons at once in real life. I think that you should reload faster, but you can only reload one weapon at a time. Other balances are also needed.

anything could happen, i'd just prefer if it wasn't in because it isn't all as great as people thought it would be. but if they found a way to make it more interesting, then TADA!

I personally feel that they should make some kind of modification that makes weapons better when single weilded than dual weilded. I mean, a single SMG sux compared to nething else. They should make it so that a single SMG is like the AR from halo 1, and a dual SMG is like the SMg from Halo 2. Make each weapon good on its own. But at the same time, keep dual weilding.

Dual wiedling should definitely stay.

if for nothing else, then the fun you can have in single player. i remeber the sheer joy i felt on cairo station as picked up my dual smgs and tore through the grunts.

i find dual wielding relatively balanced in multiplayer. no grenades is quite the hefty penalty. i trust bungie's judgement of how the game should be balanced. but i do hope that dual wielding returns.

why would holding a gun differntly change the size of its bullets or its power or whatnot?

Why would dual-wielding be less powerful than a single-wielded weapon? That just does not
make any sense. The reason dual-wielding is in there is to make it more powerful than a single-wielded weapon. Deedeedee lol.
