Grab Laser at the start of the game.
Die.
Within 10 seconds from death, it is never to be seen again.
What’s that? You want this weapon?
Despawns under my feet.
Surely someone else has noticed this? Isn’t this too odd?
And just a side mention- Bolt Shot beats Shotgun- logic?
Yes unless one of your teammates is physically staring at the weapon from up close it will de spawn in 10 seconds. A fix that needs to be addressed in the TU
Yes, you are not the only one that noticed. I agree, it is quite annoying.
The weapon despawn is most annoying in solo spartan ops. I really don’t like fighting 6 hunters on legendary with just my assualt rifle. I die with the fuel rod cannon and its gone… FML
It also leads to severe ammo shortages unless I have the extra ammo thing equipped.
Yes. It pisses me off so bad when I get a weapon drop and then immediately get sniped because I know by the time I (insta) respawn and run back to where I died it will be gone.

THIS!
This is the main reason I never go into MM without AMMO support package. If I get shot several times but kill the opponent, I want to do two things:
With the current weapon despawning, I can only do one of those things. If I charge for the ammo, I risk being a very easy kill. If I wait for the shields to recharge, the weapon will usually despawn before I get to it.
It’s a patented 343 feature!
Short weapon despawns need to be fixed, and Boltshot needs to be nerfed…
Dont. I know it.
I get a SAW ordinance
Get shined by a binary rifle
Sprint back within 20 seconds
It’s gone.
BUT
my body is still there
Why the HELL do bodies have a longer despawn time than weapons?!
I agree that the despawn time needs to be increased but keep in mind that they probably made it that short in the first place to decrease lag. Knowing that the lag is (At times) pretty bad anyway, think about how much worse it would be if everyone’s primary and secondary weapons lingered for a minute after they perished.
Yea it is pretty annoying losing power weapons because they liquefy within seconds of being dropped, but at the same time it helps keep the power weapons out of the bad guys hands 
double edged sword i guess, but it would be nice if when i came right back i didn’t have to watch in poof when im 10meters away

LMAO, the world may never know…
This is pretty much the only issue that I hope gets fixed.
