Going too anti-canonical drags the experience down.

First of all, ODSTd are carrying them, not ripping them off. Bungie never said marines weren't strong enough to carry them, just not strong enough to rip them off their mounts.

Ok, so if ODST had a twist were you had super powers and can shoot lazers out of your hands and fly, you wouldn't mind at all?

It's a heavy weapon! If they showed some struggle while carrying it, then yes. However, I still vote no on ripping it off. They may be specially trained, but they don't have the same super strength. They're essentially Marines, with better training.

I agree. If ODSTs can rip off a turret that weighs a ton, surely they must have enough strength to hold two lightweight guns. Although, they are called Hell Jumpers, since ODSTs have been known to do some crazy stuff, heck, I've seen one go one-on-one with a berserker Brute. It wouldn't surprise me if they mustered enough courage to carry something that even a Spartan has trouble handling.

Dude here:
1)It's a game, you can fly in games, you can do what ever you want in games.
2)I don't know if it's true, but I heard that if they rip it off, they will walk slower than a usual spartan.
3)ODST are between marines and spartan, so they are half a spartan so why not.


ODSTs are no-where near being half-spartan. Heck, the ODSTs where pretty negative of the Master Chief at Alpha Halo.

How?

"ZOMG ODST CAN USE TURRET WHEN BUNGLE SAY THEY NO USE TURRETS!!! WHOLE GAME AM RUINED!!!!"

If you want to talk about anti-canonical elements dragging down gameplay, where the hell are elites? They were still the main enemy in the Halo timeline.

Oh yes! Cause it would make sense for an ODST to fly! /sarcasm

The original reason we can rip off turrets is because we were spartans, but were not spartans anymore...


You idiot I said in video games overall you have the ability to fly, so who cares if you can rip a silly turret, AND, I remember grunts able to carry turrets easily, I am SURE ODST are stronger.

Courage or not, it's still too heavy for them to carry...

There was an explanation for why you're fighting Elites in Halo 3:ODST somewhere... something to do with Regrets fleet or something...

"ZOMG ODST CAN USE TURRET WHEN BUNGLE SAY THEY NO USE TURRETS!!! WHOLE GAME AM RUINED!!!!"

Gross exaggeration. Most people have come to really like the universe Bungie have created, it has a never before seen level of consistency and I'm sure there are others besides me who wouldn't want that level of consistency broken.

Never went close quarters with dual SMGs, have you? They're pretty effective.

They never showed video of any ODST ripping a turret off!!!! Just an ODST walking around with one.

Are you playing the same Halo 3 as me?

  • 06.03.2009 4:48 PM PDT

I'm pretty sure it'll just be in Firefight, and even if it is in campaign, it wont bother me too much.

half spartan you f**king idiot whats this guy on about. seriously, twat

and carrying a turret is lame, two suppressed SMG's would be much better than a turret. then you can still have some secrecy about you in game.
duel wielding should be there along with duel needlers once again
