Go ahead, check my stats.......

I am sorry if this has been addressed by bungie but i was wondering if we were going to be able to use the new SMG and Scoped pistol in Multiplayer once ODST is out?

Reach needs to be patched. It's the truth.

Those are specifically for ODST and not for the multiplayer component

~Infamous.

That'd be a cool feature, if they could add them in Forge.

Nope. Any new weapon and/ore equipment will be limited to the ODST Campaign. :D

I am going to lube your butt hole with nacho cheese and -blam!- you with a crowbar.

If they updated Sandbox, I would ejaculate joy out of every orifice.

Multiplayer Gameplay
Halo:CE------------------Reach--------Halo2-----------------H alo3
Campaign Experience
Reach----Halo:CE-----------------ODST-----Halo2---------Halo3

Glad that Halo 3 garbage is dead, thanks to Reach.
Unfreakenbelievable!!

ODST = new Campaign experience and Firefight...that is it. The Multiplayer for Halo 3 has no association with this expansion. In fact, they just copied and pasted the Multiplayer feature onto the expansion disc. Nothing will be changed on that particular feature.

I'd really be surprised if the pistol or smg don't end up in custom games.

Hey! Listen! HEY!- The words of Navi

It can be put in there, since the maps are DLC.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Yes but the UI (User interface) is not updatable.

So any new weapon would not work becuase there would be no UI to support it i.e weapon and ammo counter in the corner and equipment icons.

Be surprised, be very surprised...

Bungie already said that they can't add stuff to maps already out. Since the current Mythic maps don't have these weapons I wouldn't expect the rest of the Mythics to have them either. Besides, you already have a motion tracker, what good whould a silencer do you? On an SMG?
