I hate when the power weapon of a fallen enemy is surrounded by smg's, so to fix this they could make a little window that pops up when you hold y next to a set a weapons like this. Think of Splinter Cell. When you get to a door, you have options and you can scroll down. Just like that, you could hold y and scroll down to pick the weapon you want. To those who think it will take longer, it acctually is better than picking up a milliion bad weapons before you get the power weapon.
I picture the window in the upper left, transparent so you could still see everything, and mabey just a column of pitures of weapons you could pick up, whatever would make it easiest to use and small enough to not obstruct your view.
For all that are voting no, give a reason, because it's not "fine how it is."

So I suppose you would rather stand there picking up 10 different weapons to get the one you want just to be that vulnerable and die while trying. Read the post, because either you didn't read it, or you have no idea what it's about.

It happens when you get like a double kill and all their weapons fall in the same place. How the h3II could bungie do a good job on that if they dont have control over it!!??

they dont fly very much at all in halo 2, not like they did in halo 1. Also, why should you waste a frag to pick up a weapon?

First, this has nothing to do with this topic. Second, that's a stupid idea.

If there is something wrong with it, tell me. You are not helping.

I don't know that the game really needs the feature, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to have it, either. I have less of a problem picking up a weapon from a pile than I do picking up one that's stuck in a damned wall.

I'll be sitting on Ivory Tower or something shooting the shotgun on the floor with my SMG trying like hell to pick it up and I'll get naded or something. :P

think about it
if your trying to pick up a weapon in a hot combat zone....your dead anyways.....thats why you clear the general area then you go fishing....at least thats what i do...hell you can even use the falled weapon as bait....the other person will want it too and they'll rush for it....you let them and you shoot them

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

That's one of the drawbacks of trying to get power weapons.
