Subject: What do you guys think? (Character DLC)

Hi, I am the White Mamba Overlord of our group the ODSM.
We are not a clan, and we don't play the game for competition. Instead we play for fun, and to hang out with friends. If you are interested in joining go to our group homepage and sign up. Membership is open.
We are mostly a Halo 3: ODST group for help with achievements and stuff, but we also will play a lot of Halo 3 matchmaking.

I think it would be cool to have character DLC for firefight after the release of ODST. (If possible. I don't know if it is though).
It would be awesome to be able to buy other characters from the Halo Universe to play as in firefight.
So what do you guys think of the idea?

"It's better to live one day as a lion, then one hundred years as a sheep." -Italian Proverb

A Marine scout sniper was once asked what he felt when he killed terrorists.
His response? "Recoil"

"Though I walk through the Valley of the Shadow of Death, I fear no evil, for You are with me."

I wouldn't pay for them if they were, but if they were free, then why not?

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

maybe, but there arent many other charecters.
sure, i mean there's Keyes, Miranda, and generic marine guy, but who else?

  • 06.05.2009 11:50 AM PDT

good idea. I'd like to see Captain Keyes make a return, alongside Sergeant Forge from Halo Wars and the Halo CE Marines in the original Marine body armour.

Custom characters would be better.

What like customisable armor or facial editing? Cause as far as I know you can customise your characters armor...
I wonder if you could put ODST armor on Johnson... Without the helmet of course.

War, War never changes.

Got my Recon from the Vidmaster achievments, like most.
Reach IS awesome, don't deny it

lok at the latest blog, there is a pic of the team in the pregame lobby, Johnson looks like hes wearing odst armour with a cap.

The pic

Hmm. Good find. I didn't even see that.

I would like to see Johnson, Miranda Keyes, Sergeant Reynolds , Sergeant Stacker and the Dropship Pilots as playable characters as well.

I think you should be able to unlock them!!

  • 06.05.2009 12:25 PM PDT

PEWP!

I'd probably buy it, despite what I'd like to. It would be awesome if you could use the new skins in matchmaking too!

U are the lowest kind of human scum and you desirve to be shot.

go kill yourself and do the world a faver

I'd like a mode designed for Spartans/Elites in firefight.

It'd still be pretty rough I bet.

  • 06.05.2009 12:36 PM PDT

I am prepared for SOME explosions, thanks to EOD.

I'm still waiting to play as a grunt, but I realize that will not happen.

Though, it would be cool to be a standard marine and stuff.

Both you can't change your height or anything but maybe have a list of preset faces (so the game wont have to work hard)

Male female. armor equipment. (perhapse a bit like R6V)

Well before you get any hopes up about any kind of DLC, ODST is the last piece of content that will ever ship for Halo 3 meaning that after this, Halo 3, and by extension this new "game," will not have any more expansions, map packs, or character models made for it (probably because bigger and better things are on the horizon that require the resources that these DLC projects take up.)

Your friendly and eccentric Sangheili forum-poster. :)

Yeah that would be cool. Only when Firefight is aged though, I don't want to be buying ODST on the day of release, then the next day I see DLC characters for the thing. Unless of course they are free ;)
