Occasionally on Matchmaking, a gametype called Cannon Fodder is playable, where every player starts off with a Fuel Rod Cannon.
In Custom Games, however, the option to set this as a starting weapon doesn’t exist.
Is this intentional?
It’s a small enough problem that I don’t see it to be ‘ticket-worthy’ as of yet, but it is unfortunate.
It’s most likely because the default gametype settings don’t allow for it. Try saving the cannon fodder game type and see if it allows you to choose fuel rod as a starting weapon.
Wow, you’re right. When I read this, I thought maybe you just didn’t know how to get to the custom weapon settings or something. So, I fired up the game to check. But, you’re right. Fuel Rod Cannon is missing when you scroll through the list of weapons.

Thanks for the feedback! Unfortunately, Halo CE doesn’t seem to display the most recent gametype played on Matchmaking. Either that, or I’m missing something. Is there another way I can save the gametype?

I’ll try playing some action sack tomorrow and see if I get it.
Just checked and you cannot save recently played Halo CE game types. This is super disappointing, as you can select the flamethrower as a starting weapon, but not the fuel rod cannon. Perhaps when greater file share support is added we will can download the gametypes with all options.

Hey, thanks for checking anyway, man. Really appreciate it.
I’ll give it some time after they finish implementing Halo 4, then I’ll send a ticket their way if it’s still an issue.
