There should be a few standard rifles and pistols on the map, i miss that. now when i run out of ammo i’m -Yoinked!- even more so now weapons disappear so quick
I enjoy the loadouts, but I do wish they would have a “classic” playlist. Where everyone starts with ARs and have to fight for the DMRs and BRs. Would be cool. I love variety and having this playlist would be awesome =]
You can start with any Rifle / Sidearm combination, So having DMR’s and Carbines on the map would be pointless. There is however, starting drops. For example, on Complex, Each team starts with a Sniper and there is a sword in the middle.
You’re not the only one. It wouldn’t be too bad on close maps, you could just sneak up on someone… but large maps you’re screwed 
I think ammo placements would be better than outright weapon placements, as otherwise the perk that lets you carry two primary weapons will sort of be pointless.
If there are going to be permanent ammo placements like on Spartan Ops, then I would say having them in less frequented and holdable areas. If they were in the bases, then people who like to stay at home and pick off people at a distance will have an advantage, of they were close to commonly held areas (for example - the pelican on Ragnorak), then they will be a little more difficult to clear out (not much though, as I can’t say I see loads of areas get lost because they run out of ammo in their primary weapon).
