I have been watching that ODST vid at IGN, and Mr Staten said that ODSTs cannot use dropped covenant equipment. Now, if you have a gamertag like "iTz ClUtcH BR iz RiPPiN", just hear me out for a bit before you call me a noob.
Equipment isn't really used that much in the current Halo games, but if firefight really is a Horde/Survival style game mode, where you stay in one place to fight off waves of enemies, why not have things like trip mines, and deployable cover? Why can a manager, scene chick, nam vet and biker put down propane tanks and petrol cans, but you can't use anything like it? It's about the only scenario where equipment makes sense. And BUNGLE of course.
However, Mr Staten only said you would be unable to use COVENANT equipment, so maybe trip mines are still on. Or, maybe equipment could be enabled exclusively for firefight.
