Grab a turret.
But they run out of ammunition.


Then don't drop it, and you'll be in third person forever.
Until you die.

Come on Bungie! Expand the Halo series customization options by including this!

the reason they give you a character initially named the rookie is because they want you to be immersed within the game, see yourself as its maincharacter

It doesn't have to be available in campaign, it could just be in Firefight.

No company that uses terms like, head-to-head, man-on-man, action-sack, and mancannon is homophobic.
I supposed that teabagging is.... what, a representation of a new form of colonoscopy?

I think it would be nice because, just looking at the E3 gameplay, the outline of all the enemies and objects in the first person view might get annoying after a while.

I dont like playing in Third Person so i say...who cares if they give you that option, if i dont have to playin in TP and can play in FP then im indifferent about it.

Bungie could also entice fps haters to buy this game by allowing a third-person view.

I'm not that big a fan of FPS, so largely stayed clear of Halo. Recently, as a result of Halo Wars I've really been drawn to the Halo universe and will probably buy ODST, but would REALLY enjoy it if they'd allow at least an offline optional third-person version of Firefight. (And I know of two other gamers who largely feel the same way.)

in my opinion i think 1st person is better

because its like u are looking through ur own eyes lol

so i voted no

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.”

why the hell would you vote no?
its optional
Because you can use a 3rd person view to see around corners without exposing your model to enemy fire.

And depending on how they work it into the programming, you might be able to "shoulder", or place your character where you can fire but not be shot.

Personally I would because if the characters have awesome armor I'd like to see them instead of the weapons.

It could be offline only so other players won't be at a disadvantage.

And I am not talking about the regular Halo 3 multiplayer.

no, I say, because halo was never meant to be 3rd person.

I want my steaks Luke...

It'd be nice if it were a silver skull option... But I just don't see it happening...

Dedicated Member since '07.
Halo's Tenth Anniversary - July 21st, 2009 Thank you for the outstanding game Bungie!
Halo Series fan since it's creation.

I'd probably go with yes, but what I was thinking is different. Maybe it's an accomplishment if you get all the terminals or get a certain skull (if they have skulls). But I chose yes, only optional though, I wouldn't want to play the game third person the whole time.
