I sure want a higher level than 2. However, balance is nice. To that end, PDZero seems to really make for a good system. You still have limited slots, but the limit is higher. To compensate, you can select your loadout before you respawn. Perfect if you ask me... sorry... However, there will be times when you want MORE AMMUNITION THAN GOD, so I submit that there should be an option to let you hold everything in the game.
But yeah, balance is important. If someone has every single weapon on the map, and is good enough to switch between them quickly, then those poor saps respawning with nothing really don't have a reasonable chance.
As for Bungie directly stealing from PD rather than the FPS genre in general, well, I dunno... I played a lot of PC FPS games. I've seen a lot of stuff, and really, Halo, and Halo 2, really just seem more of the same of that.
