Subject: Why stop at Johnson?

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

Or is this just a start? Personaly I would like to see all sorts of characters playable in Firefight, Keyes for exaple. It would also be a great asset to the machinima society.

What do you think?

Yeah that would be sick. I wish they didnt use just ODST's, they should use many characters from the Halo storyline except spartans. Like..

Captain Keyes
Commander Keyes
Lord Hood

But sadly thats not happening : (. Ill get over it though.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

I want a regular ODST, not the "super" ones. After all they haven't really made an ODST game these guys you play as are more like spartans than ODST's.

Without me, it's just "Aweso".

Besides the fact that they're not super fast, don't have a 20 foot vertical, lack near impenetrable armor, and aren't 7 feet tall?

I wold love to see Captain Keyes, but that's just not happening.

that idea would suck. lol

I'm pre-ordering the game regardless of Johnson (not that big of a fan).

Throwing in any old campaign character wouldn't... go over so well.

They have an advanced HUD and "stamina" which is basically a shield, they don't jump as high or run as fast but they are still more like tanks than the regular marines?

I'd love Keyes to be in Firefight. Alas, I can't help but fear that we shan't see the legend until Reach.

Well obviously its just an estetic angle Im thinking of, not how they in any sense could be implemented realisticly. Hell, Id love to play as one of those orange hard hat wearing civilians from the singleplayer campain, or someone we havent seen at all. It could give Bungie quite a good opertunity to let us see how various people from the Halo universe look and dress.

EDIT: but at the same time I have to say that Im one of those who doesnt really like all the armor permutations, many of them just look plain stupid, so this could backfire to.

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


Posted by: Xx KNOX xX
and how!

Sergeant Pete Stacker would work wonderfully, and I Sergeant Forge would work as well. But could Bungie include Forge considering he is owned by Ensemble from being in Halo Wars?

Please do not send me group invites. If I were interested in your group, I would have already found it.

Who's to say all of these characters from the Halo universe cannot be unlocked? Just because we've only seen ODSTs and Johnson, it doesn't mean the others can't be there. They could be tied to achievements, just as armour was in Halo 3.

In fact, I think Bungie would be stupid not to do this...

Can't do females because they end up being too small... I guess they want the characters all uniform in size. Silva, Faison, Graves, Whitcomb, Hood, Watanabe, Kincaid would be cool...

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

I still think SPI armour would rock.

However, if you notice, Sgt. Johnson is wearing the ODST armour, which leads me to suspect they won't be including any other characters.

Someone mentioned 'super' ODST's. The impression I got was that these ARE normal ODST's, but Bungie has just put a lot more detail into them as you happen to be playing as them.

How's it sexist? Take a look at them. Commander Keyes would be way smaller than Johnson. And Anders. She was a scientist. Is Dare even in Firefight?

why the f does everyone care so much about player models. You can't see yourself in game. PLus this is for Firefight, not mm.

ODST are more like spartans
shields
super strength
fast
can beat down really hard
the only difference is gear and appearance

  • 06.20.2009 12:24 PM PDT

RED BRICK STUDIOS!

Permutations are possible... just because we've seen Johnson in ODST armor does not mean there is no marine armor. ( A little bungie secret?)
Maybe Johnson parts are available in character customization.
And as a side note, Stacker has worn ODST armor. (the level Covenant in halo 3)
