Ok, Before you start flaming me; I know Bungie has said the multiplayer will be the same, but bungie has been tricky in the past.

PLEASE READ!!!: I know there are very small chances that this will happen.

------


I want you to look at this picture, located in the Feet First article.

Notice the ODST in the background. He has a service tag very similar to the ones in Halo 3's multiplayer.

Now, look at the ODST to the left. He's jumping. I've never seen a Marine AI jump in Halo 3. Even if Marines did jump in Halo 3, I don't think there would be (Alot of) jumping in ODST, because it's supposed to be more tactical than the other Halo games.

I know there is a Brute in that picture, but they were going to add a Brute model to Halo 3, but it was cut from the game. Why not add one now?

You know the campaign is co-op right?

They never were going to have a brute model and you can choose a campaign service tag.

A Marine scout sniper was once asked what he felt when he killed terrorists.
His response? "Recoil"

Yes, they were.

They already stated that it's impossible to add new armor to the game, so how could they add a new multi-player character?

And that's a campaign level anyway.

Just speculating but I'm pretty sure that's a picture of firefight, in which you are a team of ODSTs.

Wtf it's just co-op. The multiplayer is the same, stop dreaming.

  • 06.03.2009 4:57 PM PDT

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

the campaign is 4 (or 5!!***) person co-op


***the guy in the conference said "4 other ODSTs. so i now think 5 man co-op

LOL!

But still, show me some evidence that Brutes were going to be in Halo 3 as a playable character.

Good day. I'm an active and fairly enthusiastic member of the Bungie fan-base and pride myself on many qualities. If you want to send me a PM, go right ahead. No I won't spam your inbox with group invites, I will respond in the best way possible. Thank you, and as I had opened, I'll close - good day.

sounds plausible, but the only thing to thwart your argument is the compass in the HUD - the blue diamond stands for a beacon, and the green arrows stand for a waypoint - 2 guidelines used in the campaign

Correct me if I'm wrong, but with the use of a new disc (such as Halo: ODST) couldn't they add new armor variants? They just couldn't do it to the existing game. However, I still believe that picture is firefight.

it was in a youtube video, I can't find it now, but you can search if you'd like

Self-proclaimed genius.
Roam the streets with a sign, "will love for false hope."

The AI does jump on rare occassions. That is Co-Op or Firefight. You can play with other players.

You can play as a Spartan with an ODST helmet. Brutes are like 10' tall, how pissed would people be when they have to look UP to shoot a Brute in the face instead of at a level? Look at all the flak Elites get.

There are no new characters for Halo 3's multiplayer. End of discussion.

Other than in co-op, you'll have to settle for Halo 3's ODST helmet on your Spartan...

And how would that work with the people playing the old disc? New characters would be incompatible.

I asume it would work in the same way as playing with people who haven't DLed certain maps that you have, it just doesn't load for them, or they can't play with you or something. Again, I could be wrong, but i thought they mentioned they would be able to add new armors with new discs, but didn't want people to have to pay for new armors.

if they can shrink elites they can shrink brutes

Maps are something downloaded, that's different. They did say there is new armor, but only on disc one and it's for Firefight.

Actually, i wish they could
But it's the same Online multiplayer. Firefight on the other hand, uses the ODST character models to play as. So we won't be seeing ODST'S outside of halo3's campaign, or in ODST firefight/campaign.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

-Gandalf

For all I know Halo 3:ODST could be an add-on! So no you can't play as a ODST solider in MM

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"

no. no, No, No, No, NO, NO, NO.

It doesnt matter how bungie does things. There would be no way that the ODST would be in multiplayer.
