Why Cant We Spawn With No Weapons?
The glitch that allows you to put your gun down in local or system-link games is very useful for making videos, machinimas, and screenshots. However...I don't quite seem to understand why Bungie cannot make it possible for use to spawn with no weapons in these games as well...
I remember playing "Warthog Wars" on Halo CE and all we had was plasma pistols...granted we still had to play by honor rules, but the only way to kill someone was by splattering them. It was LOADS of fun and I would love to recreate it in Halo 3. The thing is, the plasma pistol can now disable the Hogs...which renders my idea useless.
Any thoughts on why Bungie doesnt allow this? Don't flame me, I'm just curious...

I never said I wanted to use it for actual fighting...there is an option to make weapon pick-up disabled. I wouldnt want this in MM...just in custom games or local matches.
-
If you think back to Crow's nest, you start with no weapons. MC cannot do a melee weaponless, however the elites can. If they ever add this into online, they,ll have to do a few tweaks.
-
wont that just make spawn camping easier if they spawn and cant retaliate well ?
-
Ok, you can stay by yourself and have no weapon while I run up on you with the shotgun and rocket launcher and sniper and spartan laser. Easy win for me, It's w/e.
-
Oddly enough, Elite player models have their own special weaponless grenade throw animation (With an extra long throw delay) As well as a weaponless melee animation. How I got an elite weaponless? Secret.

this would happen [url=http://i.pbase.com/u46/4ofakind/large/29936488.bigfight.jpg]halo in chaos[/url]

I'm with swift drax, we should be able to spawn with no weapons. On halo 3 tricks and stuff people look like they have no weapons, but you can see they got a sword handle. Someone please tell us how to do the no weapon glitch.
-
Um, how is a code that lowers your weapon a glitch? Anyways I agree but there is a flame thrower glitch that makes it look like a sword in hand. Though I want no weapon where I can still punch.
-
In forge you can delete your weapon, there is also a flag glitch you can do to get rid of yur weapon although nobody knows how to do it yet. And as for your gametype just set primary weapon to magnums with the base player damage percentage to zero.
-
It only works locally because they don't want people using glitches in MatchMaking. People would call it cheating because its a glitch...even though it doesn't change the gameplay what-so-ever.
-
I know like wtf it should be simple! What the hell is with where you can only put your weapon down by doing this frusterating combo of buttons, and it only works locally?
-
I'm pretty sure Bungie could just throw us a patch to change that...
-
One thing:Having no weapon meens no melee, it's not in the system.So please, GTFO!

Because Bungie said so.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Chosenteh117 Then EVERYONE would be making machinmas. Better keep it the way it is, in my opinion.[/quote] And how is that a bad thing? People expressing their ideas through a video? When has that ever been bad??? People are naturally creative... so why limit them?
-
Gah...you people just dont seem to understand what I mean. You just keep giving me the same answers... Yeah, okay...spawn with a flame thrower and drop it, I get it. The thing is...we shouldnt have to do that, we should just be able to spawn weaponless in the first place.
-
ya it's where you spawn with a flamethrower and you can drop it
-
This isn't a boxing game...

Ok, so i have multiple options on how to create the gametype I want now...but it still doesnt answer the question I've been asking. They must have known people were going to find out a way to go weaponless...so why not just cut the BS and give us the option to turn weapons off in customs? In all honesty, I'm hoping to get a response from a Bungie employee on this....but it probably wont happen. [Edited on 08.21.2008 10:44 PM PDT]

You can still recreate it... Item to spawn with: Gravity Hammer, or Magnum; set weapon damage to 0.
-
Hay donkey. SHUT'CHER HOLE. D< Marathon was a shooting game, and you had to rely on your bare fists often! You cound't fire underwater or nuttin'! And I don't see why Bungie didn't put this in, either.
-
You can! Actually, you spawn with a flamethrower. But, when you drop it, you don't have a weapon. I use it a lot.
