After analyzing gameplay and some of the screenshots Bungie posted for ODST, it looks like customization for the ODST's does exist. Will it go as far as choosing what permutations you'd like to wear? From what I've seen, it looks like emblem customization is back, and the emblem will be placed on the chest, nice and big, so everybody can see.

Security Zone, Firefight. Look at the ODST firing his SMG in the center. Though his armor seems to resemble to Rookie's, he has a circular emblem on his armor outlined in white.

Night time Crater, Firefight. It became apparent to me here that there will be some sort of customization. Apart from having an epic model, the person playing as the Rookie on the left has a nice little emblem of the Superintendent on his chest. In this picture, Mickey sports a cautionary "stop" emblem on his chest, and has no white stripe of extra color on his helmet, and no red coloring on his shoulder pad. Weird.

So, this definitely proves that the emblems will appear on the chest plate, color customization is plausible, and permutation customization may or may not be here, but I certainly hope it does make a return for ODST.

We should know better, because we are better.

Rookie better watch out for the chieftan or someone will have replace him.

Hopefully that screenshot wasn't taken from a round where the wave was comprised of only Chieftains.

That would be a living hell, man.

That is possible but unlikely. Bungie said the waves are random so it could get a bit hectic.

Then that confirms the possibility of a wave of chieftains. Joystiq even confirmed it.

I've seen a game where nobody chose to play as the Rookie, actually. I think you can choose whoever (or whatever, if there's customization) you want to play as.
