I was thinking and this isn't a bad idea yet Bungie would have to figure it out. Really if you think about it they only use one had to weild the sword. Now think this over before you say its stupid. Say they made the sword have to do two hits instead of one to kill. The first would take away your shield and the second would kill you. I mean it's almost the same thing as the BR and PP combo. I think you should have the option of putting that on for like different game types. That way I could make a Pirates verse Ninjas game. The pirates can have 1 sword and a gun while the ninjas have two swords.

That would be overpowered I think.

No i'm just saying they could put that option on just like on option for unlimited grenades. This way it leads too whole new type of custome games.

Sword kills in one hit, what would be the point in a gun?

Thats just silly.

Making the sword weaker because you have a gun in your hand? The sword would still be as powerful, you cant just pretend it isnt for the purposes of this. Plus the whole weakness of the sword is that its a short distance weapon, giving a gun at the exact same time ruins it.

Your crossing way too many balance issues here.

Two sowrds might look cool, but it would be the same as one really.

Sorry, i voted No way. Its impractible.

I think they only use one sword so they can use their weight on the other hand to steady themselves, gives more control.

Forget the sword man! I think if you can dual weild the assault rifle or battle rifle but only for a limitid amount of time like if you have a battle rifle or assault rifle you can dual weild another but only till youve used up the clip on one than you automatically drop one because you cant reload both at the same time like u can an SMG or Pistol, do you know what I meen!

I just hate a person getting the sword and only use that the whole game. It doesn't take the greatest amount of skill to crouch in a corner and wait for somebody to run by and you kill them. I just want options more options. Like making it weaker would make combos like the sword pitsol combo. You wack them once then shoot them in the head with the pistol for an effective kill.

I think you ought to be able to dual-wield swords, and that two people can fight with swords (as in actually being able to parry each other based on their timing). The sword alone should be weaker, and you obviously shouldn't be able to lunge when you dual-wield them, but a person with two swords ought to have a better chance of winning such a match. It'd be great if there were a Juggernaut Swords mode where the Juggernaut had two swords and everyone else just had one.

Maybe not even the traditional two-point blade. Just cut the sword in half and make it an energy sceptre.

Who here wants to, at least, see Elites in campaign mode using two swords at the same time, say, fighting multiple enemies from multiple directions at the same time? That'd be friggin awesome.

Why stop with 2 swords....put another 2 on his feet...and a plasma mace hanging off his ass...then u could do a super move where u jump up and twirl around like a fairy to kill everything..the move would be called "The Whore"....

Two swords are better than one. Plus you look scary to other players when holding two E. swords

Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.
Teach a man religion, and he will starve to death praying for a fish.

No offense, but dual wielding a sword with any thing is stupid and pointless. The sword is the most powerful weapon in halo 2. why would you ever need 2 of them?
