Subject: Halo 3: ODST Information

Go Rams and Missouri!

Why can't people here seem to find stuff on their own or use common sense?

No online matchmaking of it's own, it has the Halo 3 matchmaking system on the 2nd disk
Firefight has 4 players maximum, 1 minimum.
No, the game is not completely free-roam, but it does have elements of it. You free-roam until you find a clue to a missing squadmate, where you'll then play a linear level as that squadmate in a flashback.
No this game is not a stealth game, but it will have elements.
Master Chief is not in it at all.
Dare is not a guy.
We don't have info on the story enough to answer questions like, "Is the Siege of Magridal there?"
Yes your stats carry over from Halo 3 to ODST.
The maps are exclusive to ODST.
There will be a list of retailers very soon.
Yes, you can play as any squadmate in Firefight (including Johnson with a pre-order)
The price is $60, $100 for LE, which comes with a controller.
No new armor will be added to multiplayer.
You need 3 vidmasters in ODST to get Recon as well as the Halo 3 ones.
The game is not called Halo 3: Recon.
Yes, it's been shown at E3
This isn't related to Halo: Reach
There's an SMG with a silencer and scope and a Halo 2 magnum with a scope.
For even more info, visit the ODST project page or Duardo's topic that is pinned at the top.

Well it's true, it just uses Halo 3's multiplayer, not it's own. If you think it's got multiplayer, learn to read.

So it using Halo 3's multiplayer means it has no multiplayer? I see...

No matter what the case may be, I still strongly disagree.

Posted by: Unseen Blade
No, there isn't multiplayer, they've said it billions of times.


It really depends on which way you look at it. The traditional Halo matchmaking will not be in it, but Firefight will probably have its own matchmaking system.

Firefight is a co-op mode, not multiplayer. Multiplayer is player vs player.

Excluding that, the ability for someone who has never played or owned Halo 3 to pick up a copy of Halo 3: ODST and play matchmaking means that there is no multiplayer. I think that is exactly what he means.

So co-op is not multiplayer? Proceed...

no, mulitplayer is more than one player...

change it to "no online matchmaking of it's own, it has the Halo 3 matchmaking system on the 2nd disk" to avoid confusion and arguments

Whats firefight then?

Oh and there is 5 player Co-op, bungie stated you can go online with FOUR of your friends. this makes sense considering there are 5 ODSTs

Oh and, there are 4 vidmasters in ODST, there are supposed to be 7 of them...Unless bungie wants to be mean and puts the last one in Reach.

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Edit your post so that it isn't as sarcastic and maybe this will be put in the pinned topics.

  • 06.02.2009 4:15 PM PDT

What you cant get ODST maps in Halo 3? So if you already bought Mythic and Heroic you have to buy them all over again in ODST or else you will never get new maps ever again? They better make any Halo3 maps you already have transfer into ODST.

Co-op mode is still multiplayer. I believe you mean competitive multiplayer, though Firefight will still be competitive in some aspects.

See, that's smarts. And I was really starting to think that Contra and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 were not multiplayer games. Silly me.

The complete opposite of all you think is right.

I just don't understand why people have to overcomplicate things for themselves.

You need 3 vidmasters in ODST to get Recon as well as the Halo 3 ones.

Wrong. You need 4 on the game, there are 3 on Halo 3

And a lot of this is totally obvious so why are you telling us this? Kind of a useless thread in my opinion...
