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

...and there are 5 ODSTs, which one will we not be playing as?

Armor Lock isn't overpowered. You just suck at Reach :)

Reach isn't bad, you're just a BK :)

For my gamertag, look up "Ghoulishtie"

In the co-op mode Firefight, you wont be the Rookie. The other 4 will be what you can choose from.

Oh sure that makes sense you can't play as the main character.

From what I understand you can, but you aren't forced to. Preordering also grants you Sgt. Johnson in firefight.

But that doesn't explain who you'll be for the Campaign Co-op.

Does anyone know if the campaign supports 2 or more player co-op? I don't recall seeing any mention of whether it does or not. I wouldn't see why it would stray from the way Halo 3 is set up for campaign, but then again they are changing things up a bit.

I'd like to think something like Gears of War, where you get to pick your fav before the map, considering Sgt. Johnson is a choice. Any thoughts?

Verified by everyone else here.

I'm pretty sure you can play the whole thing 4 player. Not just Firefight. In Open World, you all play as the Rookie. In flashbacks, you either all play as the featured ODST, or you play as each squad member, which there are 4 since the Rookie won't be there.

Do you play as Masterchief in Halo 3 multiplayer?.....exactly.

The concept as I see it, is that "Firefight" takes place during the day as the rookie is still knocked out from the slipspace rupture. The other 4 squad members (ones you can play as in Firefight) are trying to survive an onslaught of covenant waves.

Sgt. Johnson though is just bonus content :\

[EDIT] I also cant see the actual ODST campain be co-op accessable. Halo 3 campain made some sense now, since you could be the arbiter and 2 random elites (seeing as the elites were on the humans side now) However, the rookie is all alone and searching for his missing squad members. I dont see how there could be more than 1 rookie. (dont refer halo 1 or 2 though. They have nothing to do with H3/ODST)

Im not saying it wont, but I cant see how it would. I'm just clarifing what you play as on Firefight.

It is 4 Player Co-Op.

How many players will the game support?
1-4 for Campaign and Co-Op. Up to 16 players for Multiplayer.

If you look at the pictures of ODST - located here you will recognise that there are pictures from a Co-Op campaign and all the ODST's appear the same, I'm guessing one will be the main person for that story line and the other three will be three identitical ODST's alike Halo 2 and Halo: CE's Co-Op Campaign. My guess is that Rookie is the free-roam character whilst the other four will be included during the missions which you perform when you unveil the other ODST's missions.
