complaints against dual barret campers would flood the forums.
Not really, people camp with dual barrets all the time, in fact, barret campers are mainly the only people who can effectively use 2 weapons at this point, because they don't keep moving, and they have time to pick up another gun. Really, the only time I have 2 primaries right now IS when I barret camp. When I rush, I'm getting shot at from all directions, I don't have time to pick up some people's guns. And people say that it's such a huge advantage for certain combinations, like barret + mp5, but I disagree, I use that combo quite often, and I have to say that it's not that hugely great.

Ok, Mr. Smartass, how do you propose I mod the game to allow me to spawn with 2 MP5s?

I mean that you SPAWN with 2 primarys, NOT dual wielding. It's sort of just luck to have someone fly up to you and hope he has the primary that you want, and you have to stop moving to take the gun. I'd like it so that you choose your two weapons upon spawning.

Why can't it be an option instead of a game mode?
Or a powerup...
Once you pick it up it gives you this option upon next respawn.

No, that would hardly affect the game.

Yeah a powerup would be pretty much useless, as besides pretty much all the servers I play on have the powerups turned off. Besides, that would be almost the same as picking up a dropped one.

i think that if you want to have two primaries, you should earn one of them.

He's right - its more rewarding to have picked up the other gun yourself than if you were able to select it.

But it greatly decreases possible strategies. I'm sorry, but picking up a gun isn't an option in regular mode, unless you're a base defender.

Thing is, you're going to end up with lots and lots of people using Ruger + Barret, or M79 + MP5.

Basically, there are certain combinations of weapons that are simply too effective when you put them together to allow them to be used without the risks involved in acquiring them mid-combat.

no one would ever do those two.
ruger and barret does the same thing pretty much.

do does m70 and mp5.


m79 with ruger is more likely. no it's fair.

Stopping to pick up a gun while you're rushing in inf or ctf is like wearing a big flashing neon sign that says "nade me NOW NOW NOW".

Your acting like your having a duel and your opponent gets a pistol and you get a spork.
Isn't that pretty much what it is? I dunno wtf a spork is, I suppose it's way weaker than the pistol since you compared that to this.
