Subject: Should Bungie Give Out Free Recon Armor in Halo 3 ODST?

I personally think that Bungie should not give out free recon armor in ODST. Why? Because think about all the hard people who worked hard in Halo 3 to get recon. Then free recon armor comes out and all the noobs on Xbox LIVE will start to get really annoying! I don't have recon, but I'm thinking through the eyes of someone who does. Before you leave a comment, think like I'm thinking.

don't worry man, they'll probably make these vidmasters pretty darn good to where you have to be pretty good to get them.

Its not really free....you have to do the Vidmaster Challenges b4 you unlock it....but I do see where your going with this, and I have to agree, but its not technically free so whatever...

the people who already have theirs got It early and the people who get it in ODST will have to work hard for it , so I don't see a problem.

Recon armor was not gifted or bestowed upon me. I earned it through blood, sweat, and tears. Road to Recon complete, on to the next challenge. Halo 3: 1750/1750, ODST: 1000/1000, Reach: 1400/1400.

I don't see how completeing the Vidmaster Achievements counts as "free". Those are a pain in the ass if you ask me. Anyway as long as their is no way to glitch the achievements (which someone will undoubtedly try to do) then to me Recon is what Bungie is trying to make it, a badge of honor. With the difficulty of the Vidmasters and the No Recon List, I don't think it's going to be as big of a problem as people think.

Who cares if they give out free recon armor?

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

Some of those in the community who have allready earned Recon should not have been working to get Recon in the first place. They earned Recon because they either impressed Bungie, or they just made Bungie laugh.

As for people who actually worked for it, that was mainly the people who won one of many of the Recon Screenshot/Double EXP contests. The Vidmaster Challenges is just a way for everyone to have a chance to unlock it.

Uhh, don't we only have to get the four current vidmasters? I have 3/4, and a lot of other do as well so apparently it's not as hard as you hope.

Bungie isn't really giving it away for free. I mean we still have to earn it. If they were giving it away for free then we would all have it by now.

maybe the people who already have it really dont care if everyone gets it because they know they earned it by impressing bungie or making them laugh.

  • 06.14.2009 7:39 PM PDT

Supposedly Bungie has something special instore for those who already have Recon.

I strongly agree with what Bungie is doing. If it was free, it would become the new Hayabusa.

  • 06.14.2009 7:45 PM PDT

No, then it would be pointless for the Vidmasters.

They are giving it away because next year, it'll be outdated with the release of Halo: Reach, so really, it's all for nothing and Bungie knows it.

  • 06.14.2009 7:49 PM PDT

Anyone here think that there is going to be an ODST version of annual?I mean, it has 4 player co-op.

free recon armor comes out
Yes.....After you buy a $60 game.....Not really free if you ask me. And besides, they are going to make those Vidmasters near imposible. You know Bungie, they wouldn't give you anything for free or make something too easy.


EDIT: Wow.....You say that all of the noobs will have Recon Armor when you don't even realize you rank... Not trying to be mean or anything but you're not the highest rank in Halo.

halo reach falls in 2010 (also search halo reach on amazon.com you can pre order it) i didnt so you might not want to

we whined about recon since 2007 now that your getting it your not happy and the people who got recon that was just a reward not an unfair way because every noob is going to have it so just get over it i am tired of people saying the same thing over and over
