Subject: Will we see anything familiar from Halo 2 in ODST?

My friends call me D Bo.

Something that i would like to see is the New Mombasa Bridge, or the remains of the destroyed scarab. The really awesome thing to see is the levels we ventured in Halo 2. Outskirts, for example, was my all time favorite. The city was a true work of art, and i would love to see a similiar layout of it in ODST.

I'm not saying i want Bungie to make an exact layout of Outskirts, but some part of the level from Halo 2 to ODST. Examples: Hotel Zanzibar, the sniper alley, or the place when we first encountered the Hunters.

Any thoughts on this?

Well, you're in a whole different part of the city so I doubt it.

I wonder if we will fight the old style Scarab??? I can't see it happening really, but it would be a nice nod towards Halo 2.

you might see small bits of outskirts around the edge of the city or during flashbacks, but expect the game to look like Earth City from when Halo 2 was first announced at E3.

Well i doubt that you would see all of that. It all depends where you dropped in, because if you read the description on New Mombasa, it's huge. Chances are you'll see some familiar things, but I doubt it.

Bungie commented about the scarab in Halo 2 that "it looked like a picnic basket" or some sort of basket. But yeah, it would be really good to see something similiar to it.

I agree, in Halo 2 the location of the New Mombasa Space Tether was almost directly in front of you. In ODST, it looks like you land farther south from where the chief was.

The only thing from Halo 2 is the Space Tether, but now it's destroyed.
