Subject: Possible Vidmaster Challenges? Your thoughts

Okay, the purpose of this thread is to think of some Vidmasters that might be on Halo:ODST.


One that i think may be on there would be surviving over 50 waves in FireFight.

any other thoughts on achievements that may be on there?


Also, you can be creative and make an achievement that you think that may be on there.

of course, be reasonable.

There won't be any except the three on Halo. This is because different games have different achievments.
You can't create a game that has achievements linking to other games on the console... i don't think.

The Only Achievement left to get is Brain Pan.

Umm i'm pretty sure there is 7 vidmaster achievements in total spanning across both halo 3 and ODST. There are four in halo 3: 7 on 7, annual, brainpan and lightswitch. There are still 3 unknown vidmaster achievements left in Halo 3 ODST.

I'm pretty sure there won't be unless with Halo:ODST it had an auto-update that adds a couple to Halo 3.

The Vidmaster Achievements are for Recon armor and as far as we know you have to stay in your ODST uniform the whole time.

Dude, the recon armour is for Halo 3, when you get all the vidmaster achievements from both games you link your gamertag to Bungie.net and you recieve you recon armour to play on Halo 3 with.

For the first time, Recon Armor for use in Halo 3 multiplayer will be made available to players who complete the "Road to Recon" challenge. Earn all seven of the Vidmasters, a series of Xbox LIVE achievements that span Halo 3's Campaign and Multiplayer and Halo 3: ODST, and then visit your Bungie.net Service Record with a linked gamertag to enable your sweet new set of digital duds.

If you already own Halo 3, you can get started now by collecting the "Annual" campaign achievement and the "7 on the 7th" multiplayer achievement in matchmaking. And, if you've already downloaded the Mythic Map Pack, you can collect the hidden skulls on Assembly, Orbital, and Sandbox today. http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/features.aspx#recon
This is my source.

I thought that getting Recon involved getting acheivements in both ODST and Halo 3 then coming onto Bungie.net and downloading a code of some sort? I may be mistaken.

You are not wrong.

  • 06.05.2009 4:16 AM PDT

I'm pretty sure at least 2 of the 3 will involve firefight. One on them I think will be to activate all the skulls or survive a certain number of sets on like legendary, I really hope they get creative with these ones though.

And for those of you above regarding the recon and whatnot. ODST has 2 discs, one is the campaign, firefight, Theater, and the Reach beta when it comes out. The other disc is the multiplayer disc which has customs, MM, Forge, Theater. The second disc also has the new three mythic maps, so the only reason you'll probably use you Halo 3 disc is for the campaign. So you get recon and all the armor perms on the ODST multiplayer disc.
