Basicly, thats my question. ^ up there. There is a photo of like five pictures of ODST, and one lonely recon armor. Anyone know what is up with that? Is it because you have to beat the whole game, with every achivement in the ODST game, to unlock recon armor, and then you have to complete the vidmasters on Halo 3.?

It's not that important, but I was just wondering why there is only one recon, and five ODSTs. so ya...

Speculation is that the ODST in the Recon armor variant is an ONI officer in charge of the squad. Just speculation though, not confirmed.

Could be, since bungie had problems naming the game... I.E.Halo 3: ODST or Halo 3: Recon... But if the Recon wearer is in charge, why don't we play as him? Instead, we play as ODST that is not in charge...

Without me, it's just "Aweso".

Yep. In case you didn't notice, the Recon helmet was never used by Spartans in Canon, so it can be assumed it was designed for ONI and ODST personnel.

Speculation over the old name. The initials of Halo 3: Recon was "H3R" which looked like "her", this made people come to the conclusion that it is a she.

What we know as the recon helmet is actually a special helmet designated to be worn by the ODST squad leader, who in this case is Dare. (By the way, we say that Dare is a girl because she is. Her voice actor is female, and you can even hear her speak in the trailer. Definately a 'she'.)

you guys go check the features video they made at E3 you they show a cutscene before you get jumped and you see her without her helmet. yes she is blonde. no she in not sexy.

  • 06.08.2009 10:18 AM PDT

She is NOT the squad leader, she is an ONI agent who has commandeered the squad to protect her.

WTF? No its not. Recon was designed by the Office of Naval Intelligence for their agents to wear I believe. As I said before, Dare is not the squad's leader.

  • 06.08.2009 10:21 AM PDT

Just to clear it up- so far as we know, "DARE" is not the squad leader. She works for ONI (The Office of Naval Intelligence) and has been attached to their squad. I believe Buck is the leader, although she outranks him, making her in active command of the mission- however Buck remains the squad leader, and probably has more experience in the execution of combat missions, meaning he'll probably still be telling you what to do to achieve DARE's objectives- in short, she's running the show, but he's the squad leader and calling the plays.
