This will be awesome! My only problem is if there'll be matchmaking for it. I don't want to always have to dependon my friends to join. Please Bungie, put in matchmaking for firefight!!!!
Matchmaking for firefight - no. It will function exactly like Halo 3 campaign: look through your friends list (or friends of friends list feature) and give it your best shot to form a party. You cannot search for open games. Brian Gerard told me that Firefight is a nice mode for a person and some 'friends' to play. There was no mention of added functionality in finding other Live members to play Firefight or ODST campaign with (a la Left 4 Dead's "quick-match" feature). Not to say they aren't working on it now or are thinking about it, but at this point its a negative.

Will there be a forge mode for firefight?
Forge mode in firefight - NO. Lars Bakken made this very clear to me when I asked him after my second play-through.

Wait, Can you play Firefight offline if you don't have live?
Firefight offline - Yes. However, you are limited to 2 players per console, and can have up to 4 through system link. Stats will not be tracked, as expected.

I am assuming that their will be other button layouts?
I have always wondered why you don't allow us to fully customize our controls, but if you don't allow full customization, then can you be sure to include Bumper Jumper?
YES, BUMPER JUMPER AND ALL HALO 3 CONTROL SCHEMES ARE STILL THERE. This is still a Bungie FPS game, folks. Read other posts and stop asking the same question 17 million times.

So... is Firefight the only Co-op mode in ODST? I will be a lot less enthusiastic buying this there's no normal co-op.
Normal 4-player co-op in ODST's campaign will be fully operational, just like in Halo 3.

Howd that ODST dude rip that turrent off in Drop into fight
There were both human and covenant turrets that could be used/picked up by the OSDT soldiers in Firefight. Makes you wonder why they can't use equipment but can still pick up a turret that must weigh a few hundred pounds is beyond me, but I don't really put much into it.
Any more Qs, just drop me a PM, as this thread will likely be buried soon and pass on into irrelevance....
