I din't say this,so I'm just paraphrasing or whatever you call it.this is a reply from a video that shows the first level of halo 3 odst....
"This is so disappointing. Imagine what they could have done with this! Stealth gameplay, emphasis towards ambushes and traps (which could be set up, improvised, etc.), and actual likable characters, instead of the generic American idiots. How about a first-person cover mechanic? How about stealth kills with combat knives, if they really need to put in some "awesomness" for the kiddies? The best graphical and programming teams in the buisness, but they still can't do any better than a bloody Halo reskin, with a few new (sorry, slightly modified) weapons, a game mode and some novelty outlines around in-game objects. The only highlight for me is the sequence where the Rookie drops within the HEV.
Oh, and don't forget the completely unmilitaristic and annoying feel. And the "lone ODST", who's meant to be completely different to the Master Chief (and much more vulnerable/less-trained), but can still take a gazillion plasma shots or needles and run out in the open gunning down hordes of Covenant soldiers. Oh, and what about the fact that a mere ODST can carry a bloody chaingun? Or the way that he can beat down a brute with ease, when even the Master Chief is supposed to have trouble with them in melee?
I realise that this is just an 'expansion' oif sorts, but that's no excuse for laziness.They're just trying to rip you off people. Play Halo 3, turn up the brightness, and draw yellow lines around any cars on the screen."
do you agree with him?The knife thing would be cool tho.........
