Admiral Ackbar Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Ok. So here's the deal. I forged a map for a variation of Flood. I put down weapons for the humans to use. However, when I go to play the map using my variation of Flood the weapons aren't there. If I use the same map but on the slayer gametype everything shows up and works great. What could be going on? Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Aelius Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Flood doesn't allow the use of weapons besides those granted by loadouts, and the loadouts are fixed (a lot of people have been complaining). It seems odd to me that they'd set it that way, but maybe they'll flesh it out with DLC at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions? Maybe you didn't save? You shouldn't be having any problems with anything. Unless you marked the weapons to only appear on the certain game type.

Lucius Aelius Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 No weapons appear on the map when the gametype is set to Flood, neither Spartans nor Flood can switch weapons, only loadouts (and those are preset and unchangeable) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Ackbar Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I actually figured out a way around it. Instead of just playing the weapons. I placed initial ordinance drops. So problem solved. Thanks for the help though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucius Aelius Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I've actually yet to dabble with Ordnance Drops. Do those really still work on Flood (you've tested it and it lets you swap weapons)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Ackbar Posted November 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 Yes it works. Just make sure in the settings you have it so people can pick up weapons. Great way to bypass any issues with just placing weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
