" I will seek vengeance upon those who have betrayed my family, and uncover a conspiracy bigger that I could have imagined. I am Ezio Auditore di Firenze. I am an Assassin"

Just like the Heroic, Legendary, and Mythic Maps will we be seeing a Heroic, Legendary, and Mythic Firefight DLC maps? I know Bungie said this might be their last game but they can stil do DLC for it right?

Bringing you lame jokes, social awkwardness and the occasional good idea since 2008

Probably will be at least one firefight map pack. And what do you mean last game? Bungie isn't going anywhere, and they announced Reach anyway.

Oh sorry I meant last Halo game. They sold Halo over to Microsoft a while ago. Reach might be the last Halo game produced by Bungie.

Bungie owned it until a good time after Halo 3 was released. Microsoft was after the IP for quite some time, but they never fully owned it until the folks at Bungie studios finally sold the rights.

My guess = yes. Bungie hasn't gone a year ( I believe ) without releasing some form of DLC ever since DLC was an option.

I would imagine Bungie already knows exactly what DLC, if any, it will roll between 9/22 and the Release of Halo Reach.

My guess as to the kinds of DLC we should expect...

- Additional Firefight maps
- Additional co-op game modes
- Horse Armor

Horse Armor? We have a horse in ODST? That's really lame, tanks would kill the thing and Brutes won't feel like killing ansestors.

Microsoft owned Bungie, and therefore the Halo IP. When Bungie split with them, they kept the IP. Bungie just makes Halo games cause its their thing, and Reach is still in the Halo universe.

For all you people going all ape -blam!- over the horse armor: It's a joke based on the Oblivion DLC.

DLC has been confirmed as an option through the 'extras' menu along with the reach beta. what the DLC is for however is not said.

Yep, horse armor was a ref to Bethesda's greed as they attempted to sell their loyal customers, cosmetic, horse decorations.

Would it not be funny if Bungie were to sell Recon armor as Bethesda attempted to sell Horse Armor?

I'll bet the issue had, at one time, been broached up at BWDH (Bungie World Domination Headquarters).

No flames please. I was just having fun. I know this is not the case. I know everyone who unlocks all the Vidmaster challenges will, then, have the option to use Recon armor. Though you have to laugh... The parallels between Oblivion's Horse Armor and Bungie's Recon armor are real.

I dont think there will be DLC for a Campaign Expansion.

  • 06.11.2009 11:54 AM PDT

Non facete nobis calcitrare vestrum perinæum.

Well if firefight maps are all parts of campaign then logicly there would be a campaign dlc that would add more firefight maps based off the said dlc encounters.

I love when they halved the price of everything and doubled the price of the horse armor on April fools day. I wonder how many people bought it for 400 points, lol.

  • 06.11.2009 12:32 PM PDT

We're building a better world...all of them, better worlds.

Bungie has said specifically that, after ODST's release, they will be finished making content for Halo 3. So I highly doubt there will be any DLC for ODST. The "Extras" option in the menu has only been confirmed to be the way you will access the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta test next year.

Does Halo 3 refer to 'all Halo 3 related projects' or just the title, 'Halo 3'? Seems to be some wiggle room no matter how you slice such a statement. Also, it is a well known practice to build DLC, early on in the dev cycle, to be sold at a later date (take EA's Skate 2 for example). In which case, the statement you referred to would still be accurate.

If they dont make Matchmaking for Firefight, we will most likely see a DLC for that.

I remember someone from bungie talking in an interview a little while back about the mythic maps, and how they were the last installment of DLC for Halo 3. After that they mentioned they would be focusing support on Halo 3:ODST.

Firefight maps would be popular, and woudn't seem to hard to come up with seing how COD WAW is coming out with zombie maps all the time.
