There is a reason I am user ID 1 and my account creation date is before this site came online.

As most people probably noted at the end, Staten says that people can try out ODST: Firefight on the show floor. Any news on what type of co-op this will be? I doubt they would allow campaign co-op because of spoilersz, so what is it?

Maybe a "horde" mode of sorts? I hope so because that is about the only reason my GOW2 disk ever sees the light of day. If I could replace that with a Halo-Horde love baby, I'd mail my disk back to Cliffy B..

Yeah it's pretty much horde or survival from L4D

It looks like Durandal's Survival mode, except with co-op.

Brains beats brawn get used to it

Fear the Red Comet

Variety is the spice of life.
Long live games.
Death to all fanboys.

Joe Staten announced he's going to be demonstrating that and more ODST goodies in the coming days.

In the demo for ODST shown at E3, they said "Stay tuned later this week for more details on Firefight!"

My head's gonna exploed. Too much good stuff at one time.

Finnaly, my dreams come true. I get my Horde mode, I get to play as an ODST, I get to be with other Spartans in Reach.

OMFG

"Halo 3: ODST" introduces an entirely new way to play "Halo" with Firefight, a cooperative multiplayer mode included on the campaign disc that lets up to four people jump immediately into combat. As an ODST squad, you will face increasingly challenging waves of enemies together, striving to earn the highest scores possible, while various "Halo 3" "Skulls" are progressively activated. The experience is intense and ever-evolving.

Indeed, it is practically a Survival Mode, which is outstanding. I'm hoping Theater Mode is compatible with it.

in the gameplay trailer just released, i saw, for a fraction of a second, the halo 3 incineration medal show up in what appeared to be the firefight mode. So im guessing that you will be recognized/rewarded for killing enemies certain ways. this could lead to a new kind of meta-game scoring feature and could be featured in one of the remaining vidmaster achievements. just my thoughts

In the "Firefight" info section it says: "After the Firefight, review every last kill..." which leads me to believe Theater mode is compatible...

I'd be completely satisfied if we got some game play footage of it.

Campiagn Kill Count :31,745. And growing.

The Revisionaries- One of the greatest screenshot groups on B.net. With 250 members and growing.

Oh damn! I thought it was just a MM playlist dedicated to ODST owners.

This is awesome!!

The Snow Leopard's wisdom includes: Understanding one's shadow-side; trusting one's inner-self; agility; strength; the ability to stalk; understanding the power of silence.

No we cannot.

I loved the Survival mode in M2:D!! Bungie can we getz dual-wield shottiez in ODST plox?!?!

If no, ODST = teh suck. I'll settle for dual-wield Fuel Rod Guns but I'm not making any deals after that.

While it should have been apparent to me originally, thanks for pointing that detail out. I am now an even happier camper.

There is a certain point of tolerance that should never be reached.

I am not sure about the random skulls.
I also want it to last for a long time.
If they pull Iron randomly it might kill a lot of fun.

I'd hate to lose just because of retarded teammates that could be useful canon foder.

^^

Still, I wanted a freeroam Halo game and a Survival mode.
I get both on one disk?
Epic WIN bungie.
World Domination is yours.

GIANT SLINGSHOT TIME!

1.Arkham Asylum, 2.Mass Effect, 3.Halo CE, 4.Mass Effect 2, 5.Halo 2, 6.Splinter Cell Double Agent, 7.Gears of War 2, 8.Medievil, 9.Oblivion, 10.Crash Team Racing

Survival?

:O

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Finally. Although the skull idea seems a bit questionable. Could potentially ruin the entire mode. I also sure hope it's not simply "Kill 50 enemies to finish a stage - 50 stages total" as that's not really a survival.

And is it only for 4 player co-op? Meaning Live required?
If so, then >:(

As was I, I'm not In love with halo because of the multiplayer (MM) - It's a bit garbage, Or the single player campaign (Was alright) but the features, and editor, and a replay mode, my two FAVOURITE things in one game made me buy halo.

I hope so as well. I believe in the project page of ODST it says something about being able to go back and look at it along with stats. This leads me to believe after everygame is a screen that shows the stats and then you can save the film if you so desire.

  • 06.02.2009 4:28 AM PDT

I believe that you can be a fan of all shooters,
COD, Halo, Gears of War,
I am a fanboy of all three, by the way,
And all I want is MORE!
Click here!

Dude, firefight will be like L4D and GOW2's survival and horde modes. Go ahead, Bungie, add an active reload.

Now I wish I had played L4D or GOW2 XD

But is the 4 players compulsory or just the top limit? Is this another way to sell Live?
