The first time I killed an elite with an energy sword In Halo CE I was mad how I coudn’t pick up his sword. I don’t see why it shoudn’t be in the game. It was in every other game…
Yes, it WAS in the other games! Barring ODST! Guess what! It wasn’t able to be used in Halo Combat Evolved! So it won’t be able to be used in Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary!
Well why? I want it in multiplayer atleast so I can play infection.
The Anniversary multiplayer maps are Reach maps, so you will be able to use the Plasma Sword.

It’ll be in multiplayer but Halo: CEA is the exact re-make of Halo: CE minus graphical upgrades and such so they’re keeping that entire experience the same. So for you, your experience was feeling disappointed not being able to pick up their swords. Expect to have that experience again. 
I’m going to be a helpful member and not -redacted-, SO…
Halo CEA multiplayer maps will be in Reach. Reach has the sword.
Happy?
