I’m tired of seeing the “Hold X to pick up weapon”. Somebody smart at 343i needs to come up with a solution. Here’s my idea:
Tap B to pick up weapon, Hold B to switch grenade type.
The need to “Hold X…” slows down the game because you need to stop and stand on top of a weapon for a while, whereas you would be able to run while switching grenade types. Most of the time you only have 1 type of grenade anyway.
I don’t think I never need to stop to “Hold X”. I don’t know if choosing something other than “Hold X” is really an idea only a smart person can come up with.
If we change to your system we might start not liking the time between grenade switches, during battle.
10+ years says otherwise.

Halo 3 says otherwise.

Ever tried holding x before you get to the weapon? You can just run by picking it up at the same time.

If you find Halo 3’s control scheme somewhat complicated, I feel bad for you. It really isn’t.

No need to get hasty. I was just pointing out that Halo 3 had to Hold RB to pick up weapons.

Thats one thing that made me sad,
{press X for…} is like a halo tradition. Its like taking out the plasma grenade.

And what exactly was so complicated about it?
The solution: Instead of running up to the weapon, stopping, and holding X. Run up to the weapon WHILE holding X and keep moving.

I don’t think it’s complicated, not sure where you got that from my posts.

Probably. But that said, couldn’t you change the scheme to pick up weapons with X or soem other button? I recall Reach did, but not Halo 3.

I’d think so, Halo 2 had Hold X so it would make sense for them to include that scheme in Halo 3.
> I’d think so, Halo 2 had Hold X so it would make sense for them to include that scheme in Halo 3.
Maybe if I ever bother to play halo 3 I’ll look again. I apologize if I sounded aggressive by the way.

Eh no problem, but once again. OP it’s not hard to run past a gun and Hold X to pick it up.

No it’s not hard. But my suggestion is better than the current system.
They can’t do that, you have to hold so that you don’t accidentally do the wrong action, and it only take 1 second

^^Stupid.
Too complicated
