Subject: 2 discs noooooooo

well it blows that this will come in 2 discs because i wanted to jump seamlessly through firefight and halo3 multiplayer but i guess this wont happen.

it appears you have fallen into a sarchasm...
its the gap between someone making a sarcastic comment, and you picking up on that sarcasm...

Wait, when was this confirmed?

My thoughts are "meh."

It's not going to kill me to get up and spend a minute switching discs. If by some chance, though, a baseball comes careening through my window and directly into my head at the exact moment that I'm switching the discs out, yeah; I'll be pissed.

I'm actually quite happy about it, as my old Halo 3 disk is busted anyway, and now I can delete all my old maps to free up space on my hard drive. I think it's great.

I believe that everything is on one disc but the maps are on the second.

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Oh God!! Slight inconvenience! Noooooo!

Meh, no big deal. But I'm pretty sure that its on two disks because ODST to far too modded from the original game to be used with multiplayer.

Yeah I hate it. like a lot of people here, I am a fat lazy guy who does not know what a friend, or girlfriend, or standing up really means. All I know is about Xbox 360, and eat, and sleep.

1 st disk is halo 3 ODSt 2nd disk is halo 3 multiplayer

  • 06.04.2009 3:58 PM PDT

I thought the ODST disk comes complete with the entire Halo 3 Multiplayer. And if I'm right, the 3 new maps will probably just come as data on the same disk, or in a code that lets you download them.

Unless I missed some pretty big news....? Anyone wanna fill me in?

yeah but one of the cool things about halo 3 was to play multiplayer with random people and then invite them to play coop campaign but wont happen here. i mean if your playing firefight or odst campaign and then want to play multiplayer (vice versa) with them, your actually asking him to get up and do this as well.

i also think this will affect the amount of people playing firefight since you wont be able to go to halo 3 multiplayer right away, so alot of people will play it but after a while will not want to do the whole process. look what happen to gta4 and gta4 l&d. gta4 l&d multiplayer is a ghost town since most people didnt want to go through the whole process of switching through games

It's just like saying, "we are playing halo 3, oh lets play GoW", you still need to change the disk.

I'm with you. I only have the 20gb HDD, so getting rid of 1gb+ is never a bad thing.
Sounds like a great idea to me.

Same thing with me. I'm getting near the 1 GB mark. It'll be a relief to free up that space.

what some people (like the OP) don't realize is that ODST is NOT Halo 3.

it's a new game, with the name "Halo 3" branded on it.

it's like Half Life 2 and Half life 2: Episode One and Half Life 2: Episode Two.

that's why he's upset that it's two disks.

he's thinking "if it's just Halo 3, why can't it be on one disk?"
