Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

Weapons already confirmed for ODST are:

Silenced SMG
Brute Plasma Rifle
SOCOM Magnum (Halo 1 pistol on steroids)

And we all know that Duel-Wielding is out, sad face.

So here's my question, will the new weapons be implemented into Halo 3 matchmaking? Because I want to tear it up with that SOCOM Magnum!

Probably not.
Bungie would have to re-code everything and stuff for each weapon.

But considering that Halo 3: ODST is the Halo 3 engine, with the same matchmaking, shouldn't it work?

Nope.

Nope.


And you know that for a fact? Proof or it didn't happen.

More than likely that is a no.

Considering the new pistol looks extremely unbalanced. And unbalanced weapons are a huge no no for MP,, especially matchmaking.
I think I even heard one of the bungie guys in the podcast or something call it extrememly unbalanced.

They are unbalanced for multiplayer use, and some of them would be redundant with other weapons.
