Health packs in Halo 1 just made the game tedious searching for them, I hope its not the same in ODST.

IGNORE THE DAMN GAMERTAG! It's my brother's. Feel free to spam him with messages. >:)

I didn't mind health packs in Halo 1. I wonder how it's going to be in ODST...

there will be health packs, they will look different. however there are terminals all over the city with out AI buddy there to guide you to them. If this is to hard find another ODST squad pinned down somewhere and get health from them.

while i love the health regen in H3 and no med packs

med packs added more of a challenge to games becuase you actually had to worry about shields cuz without em your hp drops fast

makes sense to make med packs in ODST

Reach needs to be patched. It's the truth.

If it was tedious searching, you should have memorized their locations

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

Honestly, I'm happy.

In Halo 1, I thought part of the fun was being careful because I stepped too close to a grenade. Health packs add the sense of danger rather than a sense of invincibility.

Yeah but the thing that makes halo good is the gameplay and action, running around looking for health packs slows the action down and its just tedious

At least you should be able to store them, to use when you need it

Energy Shields in addition to Health Packs is what made Halo. The removal of Health Packs removed a key component of Halo's gameplay. It's great that they return for ODST.

I don't mind the health packs, I just wish they'd done something alittle different other than the classic 'walk over and heal' routine. They could have at least put in an animation of him inserting a biofoam canister in a port on his armor or something to make it interesting.

So everyone thinks it was better having to find health packs in Halo 1, rather than just the regen. shield in Halo 2 and 3? If they are doing it again in ODST you should be able to store them

I'm cool with or without health packs, it doesn't matter to me if they are in ODST or not

Two movies you should watch: Fight Club and Pineapple Express

"Wait. What do you mean, it's dead?"
"If marijuana is not legal within the next five years I have no faith left in humanity, period. Everyone likes smoking weed. They have for thousands of years. They're not going to stop anytime soon. You know? It makes everything better. Makes food taste better, makes music better. It makes sex feel better for God's sake. It makes -blam!- movies better you know?"

On top of health they have stamina. So when your stamina runs out you can lose health. This makes it a type of overshield and as far as I know (I may be wrong) your stamina can slowly regenerate on its own.
