Sorry to kill your whole thread, but the ODST's will NOT be able to use equipment. The X button will be used to actuvate the VISR, confirmed in another thread. Only the Brutes will be able to use equipment, and the only probable one used would be the bubble shield.I stated this in the OP. I know what VISR is, and I explained how "pick-ups" are different from equipment. Sorry if it wasn't clear.

Well, I know for a fact that your power drain theory is bull-blam!-(no offense). Think about it. A Spartan is affected by a power drain, and so is a vehicle. Now why is that? What could possibly be the link. Perhaps POWER? Spartans have POWERED suits which would be drained by the POWER drain.No, no. What I meant was that the power drainer when used in campaign, has the power to kill marines and ODST's before it actually explodes, so I was wondering if it has the same effect on you (other than lowering your stamina). Don't treat me like an idiot, I know what the power drain does dude.
I have not seen a power drain kill anyone pre-exploding. The power drain is just an exploding EMP.
The power drain creates a short-range Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) effect which causes disastrous failure of powered field systems within a set radius, and is designed primarily to interfere with common varieties of electrical field-based shielding, vehicle and power generation. It also has a damaging effect on biological systems and can wound or kill most bipeds in its resulting explosion. Source: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Power_Drain
