Subject: Spartans in Firefight?

Now I know this game is about ODSTs, don't worry, and I know the default mode of Firefight will likewise be with ODSTs, but I was thinking that, since the game allows Halo 3 multiplayer, and thus Spartans must be stored on the disc, then why can't we use Spartans in Firefight, a different game mode of course.

Because to be honest, I find the idea of four Spartans fighting off waves and waves of Covenant a little more exciting than ODSTs doing it. I can just picture four of the super soldiers working together to take down Hunters.....

If it's not in the actual game, then DLC maybe?

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

I could see something like this coming out of Halo: Reach. I do not, however, see it happening in ODST. It sure sounds good though.

The addition of Johnson in firefight means anything is possible. Think about it, he's not even an ODST but confirmed by Bungie already...

I'd be nice to be able to rock all ODSTs, Johnson and our Elites/Spartan avatars from multiplayer in firefight. This would make for some GREAT screenshot capturing.

the Firefight mode is geared towards ODST's combat rather than Halo 3's, so Spartans wouldn't really work.

I don't think so either. You better watch yourself. We have the death sentence on twelve systems.

It might not just be odsts, sgt johnstone makes an appearance if you preorder, im thinking other people from halo without shields will be in it aswell, such as marines or captin keyes ( I know shes dead but that was in halo 3).
But im sure all odsts from the game will be avaliable

I made a topic like this yesterday and I do have a good arguement for it, If you play as Spartans/Elites, it would let you have the classic gameplay, you would once again get to dual wield and hijack vehicles. I said a good way for people to also play as the ODSTs was only letting them have access to the silenced+scoped SMG and pistol.

I see no reason to not include spartan/elite avatars in firefight, all the enemies are the same from Halo 3 and nothing else expect ODST gameplay would be new.

I am all for having all of these guys playable, one person said, spartans would provoke people to not play as ODSTs, I am sure that even as a spartan, the increasing waves would eventually be too hard for even a spartan or elite player.
