In Response To: Re: One Man's Canon Is Another's PITA (long) (treellama)

: If you already have a single-wield weapon, you can't pick up another one (and
: if you have a two dual-wield weapons, you can't pick up a third). The
: alien weapon disappears when empty, so then you can pick up another one.
: Difficulty level doesn't matter.

: Woah!

: You were never able to pick up a second weapon below TC, in any of the three
: games. When did that start being considered a bug? What is the
: "fix?"

Then that's because it is a bug in all three games. Jason never admitted to it nor did he fix it. In Marathon 1 on Total Carnage you can pick up a second weapon when your current weapon is empty. But you can't below Total Carnage. This was the bug I was referring to in this post.

It's nonsense to have a fully loaded weapon on the floor and you can't use it or its ammo, simply because you already have an empty one in your inventory. Total nonsense, just like the multiple pick-up nonsense.

I'm sure there is reason why Jason never fixed this in M2. Maybe it can't be fixed.

Cheers
Hamish
