Weapon Sets

[Bartoge]

Ever wonder what those settings under "Weapons and Vehicles do". For one they change the base player starting weapons, but there are also these neat things called "Weapon Sets". These change every weapon in the game to a another weapon. Their are lots of options in this catagory and can be useful for some people. Now some of these sets are obvious like "Assualt Rifle". That changes everything to an AR, but some of them like "Duels" can be confusing as you can't tell what changes into what. Well here is a list of all the weapon sets.

Weapon Set: Assault Rifles
All Weapons Are Changed To Assualt Rifles

AR- SMG
BR- Magnum
Shotgun- SMG
Sniper- Magnum
Needler- SMG

Weapon Set: No Weapons
All Weapons Are Removed

*Turrets Are Never Changed/Removed

**Only Weapons That Change Are Shown

***I think that when you change it to Shotgun/Lasers/any single weapon that only the number of weapons allowed on that map are changed. Ex: Only 8 weapons will become a laser, and the rest are removed when playing on Foundry. {This Is Only A Theory. Correct Me If Im Wrong}

I never even thought about this before. Very interesting information.

I'm now waiting for somebody to find a way to utilize this.

You heard the man. Snap to it.

Dibs on utilization.. just another thing to add to my gametypes that I need to make... like one that emphasizes betrayal booting, one that emphasizes respawn growth and now one for weapon sets...

[Time Glitch]

The only thing I can see this leading to at some point is if you needed more BRs or something on a map, placed down weapons that would turn into BRs, then changed the gametype to replace those weapons with BRs.

Could be interesting to see how many of one type of weapon you could churn out like this.

I wish their were more weapon options, like Human or Covenant...Hell even like a "Brute" option would be sweet. But none the less, thanks man!

[The Cheat]

I really wish they kept the "Classic" and "New Classic" options for weapons sets....I miss Halo: Combat Evolved.

[GodlyPerfection]

In Halo: Reach I want to see the ability to be able to pick weapon substitutions... so you can make your own custom sets, not to save just to be able to fully customize a gametype...

@Azn - There is no dibs on a setting for a gametype dontcha know. ;)

This is cool. I knew about it, but the only thing I would use it for was "No Weapons". Nice guide/theory. Very informative.
