I hope that would be kinda cool

I think so, but dont quote me on that

I don't think you can. Not trying to be a know it all. But I remember Bungie saying you can customize your very own ODST for Firefight including new Emblems,shoulders,etc. But they could add in the Recon variant in it.

But I thought you could play as any odst? Is that not true? You have to play as the rookie.. everytime? (or sgt johnson)

No you get to "CUSTOMIZE" your very own ODST.

Does that mean just armor? Or starting weapon too?

Once again I'm not sure. But that would seem cheap. Because you could start off with laser or sniper or something. What i think is. (I'm just speculating here) but after each wave or beginning wave you have selection of weapons where your spawn is. Or you buy weapons from a menu or something with the points you've earned in killing the Covenant.

one of the few things that bungie's aloud to keep in the dark.

I appreciate you answering.. but if you dont know maybe someone else does? And also.. about the spawning with power weapons.. couldnt you just take them from romeo or buck at the start or is it not possible to take ally's weapons in this game?

Well... I dunno. Sounds kinda ske7chy... I know that all the members in ODST's campaign will be playable but I'm not sure if they'll have Dare playable. Maybe they'll just have a Recon helmet for your ODST when you unlock Recon for Halo 3 Multiplayer.

Dare is the bobble-head ODST right?

  • 06.18.2009 5:29 PM PDT

shell probably be unlockable. Also I think that you choose an ODST and change the armor but the color they have on stays the same.

Check out this thread if you'd like to use your custom character in Co-Op. http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=13792191

I think a lot of girl gamers would like to have a bad ass character to choose. As guys, we don't usually think of something like that since almost all game characters are men. Sometimes the only girl characters are usually cheesy and wimpy too. So I think it would be a wise decision to put her in Fire Fight and even as a character to choose with Co-Op. Yeah, it wouldn't really make sense to have her in Co-Op, but neither is playing as a dead ODST that's reliving his death.

About taking the ally weapons. Firefight is going to be based around playing with friends so i doubt they ll put it in where you can take your allys weapons. And the thing is no one knows. All we can do is guess. They haven't revealed that much info on this subject yet.
