Thank you sir, that was an epic rendition of this topic.

and how!

I've always had my helmet and avatar as an ODST...I just switched to a newer avatar.

For me they have always been the coolest characters in the Halo universe, and once I unlocked the ODST helmet I never switched to a different one unless it was for a video.

Now everyone has them on and I look like a goofball. Fun.

just let the unwashed cellar dwelling masses have thier fun, if this is what gets them hyped up about ODST, then let them. although i do find it quite amusing that anyone would try and "teach" about ODST's...hehe, i would love to correct that kinda person.


QFT. I've loved ODST's since Halo 2 and their badass suits.

Posted by: cB4d93
it makes me want to take off my ODST helmet now. I guarantee that none of those people have read the books, or even played the first 2 halos.


QFT again. It makes me so angry I could spit!


same goes to me
I mean look at my Xbox live Gamertag Avatar by clicking my Profile . ODST

The problem isn't you originally liking ODSTs (whether in soldier, helmet, or avatar form), it's in you bragging that you originally liked ODSTs (whether in soldier, helmet, or avatar form).

Let's face it, bandwagoners are annoying, but the person that's even worse is the guy who's constantly thumping his own chest because he liked it first.

Its ok, everyone will be jumping of the ODST bandwagon when Recon is available

You underestimate the possible difficulty of the new Vidmasters.

Thanks for choosing to whine over being a productive member of the community and possible element towards advancing Reach.

I've always had the ODST perm in Halo 3 and an ODST avatar on B.net. Sure i changed every once in a while, but in the end I went back to the Helljumper.

So what if more people are using the avatars for the ODST? Doesn't really mean much.

I've liked ODST since I read about them...

Now I can't say I've read all the Books (Yet)
But I love the ODSTs. They're badass!

and because of these kids... I have now switched to my MKV Helmet...
Only for about a month... then I'm switching right back to what is my favourite badass helmet!

I started out with nothing and I still have most of it left.

I just don't see the problem with people using a different armour perm because they're fans of the new game.

I use Scout shoulders with every set of armour I use (the Recon ones are tempting, when I get them...) but if something happened to make everyone use them it wouldn't irritate me even a little bit.

The more people who use one perm, the better it must be.

You should be happy people are converting. Not annoyed.

Same here, but right now I am an elite because I was playing SWAT and forgot to change it back before I got offline.

ASplinteredEdge, To you "the man thumping his chest saying he liked something first" is more annoying but are DIEHARD yankee fans bragging they have been with the team for 50 years annoying? of course not It should be the same way with ODST's.

LOL yeah. But see it just makes me mad that everyone is like, "YES I GETZ R3C0NZ 4 3ASY NAO!!!" Because we, in fact, have no idea how hard the new Vidmasters will be.

It's like COD fans pretending they know all about modern weapons. Until you ask them to describe a FAMAS.

Man, Yankees fans in general are annoying.

Almost as bad as Red Sox or Patriots fans.

It's always some dumb trend online on Halo 3. Like that other guy said, first it was Hayabusa, now it's ODST, next it'll be Recon. But i can't say anything becasue i'll be wearing my Recon. Which reminds me, does the armor just unlock after getting all the VidMaster achievements? And are we getting a chance to unlock flaming helmets any time soon?

  • 06.07.2009 3:05 PM PDT

I was in 5th grade. I popped in the Halo CE disc into the massive, clunky first generation Microsoft Xbox, and wrapped my small hands around the controller that was almost too big for me. Little did I know what I was getting into.

10+ years later, I still look up to my childhood hero, Master Chief, while everyone talks about He Man and Spongebob haha

It's true. People who loved ODSTs before this are no longer unique now.

I don't remember where, but I'm sure I read/heard that when you complete the Vidmasters, you have to go on Bungie.net and unlock the armour.

Maybe it will give you a special key or something?

Greedy much? Bungie is giving us one of their prized possessions, and you still want to take away the last thing that separates them from us online? Shouldn't they get any unique qualities, considering they made the game? You want the flaming helmet, go work for Bungie.

I didn't say all.
I am a COD fan as well so much that I didn't buy COD5 Because I knew it wasn't going to be any where near as good as COD 4 and 2.

But back to the original thread. It's OK, let them have their fun and there is no one making you wear ODST armour and likewise, You can't make them NOT wear it.

If this is the state of my art, then I secede.

I'm not gonna lie, I started to wear the ODST helmet because of Halo 3: ODST. However, I did play Halo CE and Halo 2. But when I unlock recon, its gonna be ODST helmet, and recon chest and shoulders. Beautiful.

It's kinda funny, I like the way the helmet looks, but it's the only one I couldn't unlock. I can't even wear it if I wanted too.
