It doesn't fit the setting of the game (these are 3 more or less militaristic factions, not some gangxsta gangs shooting at each other with 2 horizontally held .45 . It is a sci-fi shooter with all the 'magick' stuff, but pls, use your brains. If dual wield would make sense in real life, why isn't it applied by law enforcement or military forces? I will tell you.
- it is faster to handle one SMG than 2 pistols
- better accuracy
- faster ROF
- free hand to perform simple tasks (opening a door, bending a twig in a forest, or just clean the sweat out of your eyes)
- SMG+secondary pistol (in holster) is better than 2 pistols
- no need to learn delicate tasks with your left hand -ambidextrousity is just too rare to happen and those people often has problems with reading or writing and they often mix their left and right sides - that could use problems... Cover RIGHT! I SAID RIGHT YOU F*CKING beeeeeeep...
That is why dual wield has no place in a game that resembles the slightest touch of realism. (And PS2 does, otherwise we would fight upside down and physics wouldn't influence anything ingame).
And dual wield would require a lot of animations too. I'd rather have enter/exit animations pls.

LOL were still playing a game here and just because you don't or possibly can't do it in real life doesn't mean you shouldn't have the OPTION to do it I don't see maxes which by the way can dual wield walking around in real life does that mean we should take them out of PS2 ? .... if it was a side grade would it really bother you that much ? Also adding animations for dual wielding would be a lot less work then vech animations because they didn't build them into the models
