The reason i think the are puling this out is these are not the spartans form 2 & 3 there not as strong thats why ODSt was like that.

ya thats what i mean but i just thought these guns are very powerful so a Human or a lower class spartan as we will be in Reach would not be strong enough to hold the would you not think that one of the reasons?

The point is that in multiplayer there is no SMG, the plasma rifle is now an actual rifle, the plasma pistol combo was noob, and the magnum is now even more awesome than the one in Halo CE (a duel would be too powerful). And for those of you who think you will miss it, think about it, you never really used dual weilding in Halo 3 did you? If you did, then you are probably a noob.

Honestly I would have to agree with you guys, But even when someone DID dual wield, and you did it just right, nothing is more fun and cooler than spitting out DOUBLE bullets at people, and just causing a ton of carnage.

I never dualed in Halo 3 because I never played halo 3 online, I was severially disappointed with the game anyway I still think that Dual wielding SHOULD be instated in the game!!

You are ALL WRONG. They took out duals in ODST bc the developers on that game (different team used for ODST, only had one 1 yearish) didn't like them.. It takes away grenades and messes up melee.

I got that info from watchng the making of ODST.

I do not like duel guns but I guess it would be nice if the incorporated a playlist that allowed players to duel wield only when playing that certain playlist.
