[Tags & Script] "Backpack" Weapons Mod

[Mr Buckshot]

The one disadvantage of backpack weapons is that the enemy can now see the loot that you're secretly stashing away, and this will change battlefield tactics a bit.

e.g. in Halo 2 xbox, if you had the energy sword, equipping it in full view would prompt other players to move far away. However, a skilled player would holster the sword until the opportune moment (i.e. within lunging distance) to trick the enemy. Looks like we can't do this anymore.

Of course, this will go into Halo 3, and it looks cool/realistic, so I like it.

yah, but isn't the energy sword like deactivated when you aren't using it? cuz when you switch to it in halo 2 and h2ce, u have to activate it! But ppl won't really see the energy blade handle, unless they gots a super BR or Carbine, or a Beam RIfle or Sniper.

I think CMT should put that in their next mod. I like the backpack weapons mods. It looks cool. i think if u have dual wields, they are going to be crossed and hung on yor back.

That IS one thing in Halo2 that bugged me was that you could see the sword before it was picked up even though it shouldn't be active. It DOES make sense though in that it'd be difficult to find one and pick it up if it wasn't lying glowing on the ground. Still...

Anyways, the backpack mod WOULD change battlefield tactics a bit, but it is still incredibly cool. I like little additions to a game that add that tiny little piece of realism (I mean really, where does the Chief store that twin barrel rocket launcher? Actually, don't answer that).

Hope a modified version of this script works in H2Vista. Would be awesome!

As far as i know, there is already a script for this in Halo 2 made by the project leaders of Project Carbon. It should also work in Halo 2 Vista.
