It's really just there because it looks cool. I had fun dual wielding needlers in the short time I spent playing Halo 2.tpizle said:im not saying it doesnt look cool what im saying is how does it make the game better than it was with one gun
SakSak said:One prob- Four problems with this:obex said:two swords one legend, Iceingdeath and Twinkle you all know who im talking about
A) He is an elf.
B) He has spent most of his life mastering that two-handed fighting style
C) He is naturally ambidextrous.
D)He could throw something like a dozen coins per hand into the air (by flicking his fingers, so not that high) and catch them all before they hit the ground the first time he did it as a child. And he did it without really trying all that hard.
Drizzt is, in essence, a natural two-handed expert with almost superhuman reflexes, hand-eye co-ordination and speed with hands. Even the Drow considered him a natural expert and that training him as anything other than a warrior would have been a colossal waste of talent. And they are fricking Dark Elves.
So no dual wielding for us mere humans, specially not with firearms, if you want to hit something other than yourself.

OT: because it's fuckin' awesome. And looks totally badass. That's rather obvious isn't it?
I was sleeping, excuse me.Kajin said:*Sulks*WhiteTiger225 said:Heres the problem with bringing up terrain. It is NOT because it rendered the swords useless, a sword was just as good at stabbing as anything else and can still out range your knife, while still being able to parry said knife swing while injuring your arm in the process. Why the legionaires lost was due to a few factors
1. Unfamiliarity of terrain.
2. Untrained in fighting in such terrain
3. Forest terrain rendered their team tactics and strategies moot.
I bet you out of all the enemies that routed the legionaires, only 1-2 of them who could afford better used a knife of any kind. A short sword at the least. Forests really arent as dense tree wise as you might think. Underbrush is a ***** yes, but not as many new trees grow as the forest gets thicker. Why? Because the canopy the trees form prevent the much needed sunlight from fully nourishing new seedlings. And again, you bring no point up that promotes the use of actual evidence of dual wielding being effective. Heck, you even negated by yourself one upside to using a single knife in battle, let alone 2. A narrow hallway is a killing field for short ranged and unshielded soldiers, why? Because as you said, we can only stab. But with spearmen down that hall, what good is your dinky little dagger going to do in terms of getting up close to the spearmen or swordsmen who has a 4 foot reach and doing a killing blow. Since you have a knife you obviously won't be too well armored, and the most chainmail would do (what soldiers normally wore for metal type armor) is help prevent the blow from going through you, a killing lbow would still be very easy, and possible with you outranged and forced into a narrow hallway.
Yeah, pretty much the only advantage to a knife is it's ability to remain hidden. Damn you and your logic! Gah! It burns us!
The only anime I've ever watched that implemented dual wielding was one piece and if anyone ever used that show as a basis for how the real world worked I'd lose every ounce of faith I have left in humanity. I've also never played assassins creed, so nyah to your bad self
I wet myself at the new multiplayer trailer... if only you were there, then you could say "Hey, I once saw a guy wet himself over a trailer!"MaxTheReaper said:I've yet to see someone wet themselves over the ability to hold two guns at once.
And it usually comes at an accuracy penalty anyway, so I don't see the allure.
