Droping Equipment

[mista tipsta]

I've been messing around with the Firefight options and I found a very interesting option. Titled "Equipment Drop", and the description reads, "If disabled, the AI does not drop equipment when killed" (You can see how I set it up below). Now, I was quite intrigued by this option, and I tried to test it right away. But I couldn't get it to work. I tried killing several different types of Elites that had various Armor Abilities, and none of them ever dropped one for me. I signed in a guest to see if that would work, even though it said AI, but not luck there either. Now, I'm not sure how many of you have messed around in Firefight, but if you know a solution to this problem, or encountered a similar one and found a way to fix it, please tell me.

Also, I really didn't want to make a whole thread for this, but I really didn't know where else to put it.

Maybe you have to change something in the wave options themselves, for example, a wave of enemies that actually uses armor abilities? I'm not sure.

Its most likely for Firefight when you have Spartans that are Human players vs Elites that are human players. Test that.

One can't actually edit the traits of a Wave, just the traits of a Skull that effects the Wave.

I guess I left out the words "and sent it on the Elite team" because I thought it was obvious.

I thought you we're talking about something else when you said that. :/
