Okay, so I recently watched a bit of footage about H3:ODST's new feature: The Firefight, and after hearing some mixed discussions with my friends, I've had a hard time figuring out what some of it meant. Some of my friends insist on the idea that the new firefight mode is strictly for the halo ODST maps, while the others say that H3 maps could be used as well.

I could see the ups and downs to both sides, and none were really concrete since hardly any research was attempted. Soooo, I am here to get a voiced opinion or statement. It probably would be impossible to add such a function for the old maps, but then again, I'm no developer. Is it possible that Bungie has allowed for such a thing to exist?

Since Firefight is strictly on the ODST disc, there won't be any halo 3 material whatsoever available to use on that disc. In other words, firefight and halo 3 multiplayer are two completely separate game modes.

Now bungie may decide to "recreate" some H3 maps for firefight, but you won't be able to go into forge, created a map on sandbox and then use it in firefight. They're two different games.

No. All the maps are taken from campaign. (Kinda like L4D's survival move)

Thank you for clearing that up Hawk. I was'nt entirely sure myself, I only found out about this new thing just this morning, and even with the friday report, it only covered so much. All I knew was that this game was an 'expansion' of the original H3, and therefore, was just added material for the first game, and probably altered some of the features to include such content.

High ground would be a cool map for that.
