Would you dance for it?

Anyone else think it is odd that after the fantastic player customization options of Halo 3, Bungie would only provide 7 (including Johnson and DARE) models for ODST Firefight?

I hope that its was just a floor build that only allowed several presets shown at E3.

What do you guys think?

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

and how!

After seeing this video logically we will be able to select an ODST and either wear or not wear the helmet.

Despite this, that may only be for the E3 demonstration build.

I would love to see a similar system with more customization.

I.E. Select a base ODST and then be able to customize slightly, like to have a pack or not, to have ammo belts on your boot or not, to have the antenna on your pack or not, to be able to choose from the different ODSTs shoulder and body plates, and so on.

Choosing the base ODST would select your character's voice, as it has been confirmed that ODSTs make remarks on the situation, such as "Headshot!" and "Reloading...".

I respect your opinion, I'm probably just going to disagree with it.

I really hope that they allow full customisation, that would be sweet. I was saying in my other topic here that I wouldn't mind seeing other armour that isn't ODST as well, but I guess that means more work from Bungie's perspective - more first person hand models etc.

I liked the idea of being able to change what extras there are on the armour - like ammo bandoliers and suchlike.

Mmmmm, Cheese....

It would be pretty cool, bungie actually could have that kind of thing in mind. Hopefully they give an update like that!

I just can't imagine Bungie not offering a TON of custumization options.

I'm betting on chest armor, shoulders, helmets (all in Halo 3) plus some other things like gernades, knives, and gloves.

Mabey even armor symbols (Skull + crossbones).

This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends;
Not with a bang but a whimper.

I think it might be kind of cool if you could select two or three or so things to modify your looks, but they could also affect game play. For example, if you chose an ammo belt on your boot, maybe you could have a little more ammo. Or maybe if you chose to where a pack, you could run a little bit slower, but maybe could have two or three health packs.

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

I will think thats all the customization options there is.
