Well I came to start thinking Bungie is Releasing Halo 3:ODST with the ODST Campaign story that includes Firefight, and a second disc that has all Halo 3 Maps including three new ones called Heretic, Longshore and Citadel.

Now this second disc also lets you play Halo 3's multiplayer experience straight off the disc now I was wondering, couldn't bungie tweak the disc so that different perms could be added?

Now just think about it, if this were to happen new armors may already be stored with ODST what are your thoughts?

Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

Nope. The people playing Halo 3 wouldn't be able to see the armor, so it would just mess things up.

nope, and if there were DLC armor, everyone would probably have to download it. Games might take longer to get matched up just because one guy didnt download it and can't go against someone who has it on thier player model.

Your friendly and eccentric Sangheili forum-poster. :)

Halo 3 multiplayer armour cannot be added. However, I'm interested if new ODST armour can be added into Firefight... Surely Bungie wouldn't make the same mistake twice.

It doesn't work that way. The flaming warthog in Halo Wars is like Recon in Halo 3, it's built into the game but not everyone can use it. You have to enter the activation code into the market place and it'll download a file that basically says "This guy has it, show it in-game". Except with Recon, Bungie just basically flips a switch. Moving on:

If they put extra armor in Halo 3: ODST's Disk 2 multiplayer (Halo 3's multiplayer, just on a different disk) the people playing normal Halo 3 wouldn't be able to see the armor because it isn't on their disk, nor did they download it. And this all comes back to the same problem on why new armor still can't be put into Halo 3 yet: All the models / textures are built into the map. You'll have to re-download the map in order to view the new textures / armors (Ever wondered why they didn't add effect filters into Heroic / Standard disk maps yet? That's why..) And honestly, I'm sure Bungie wouldn't make everyone who's playing Halo 3 to re-download 21 maps JUST in order to have a few more armor permutations
(Think about it: A map pack is 3 maps. That's 400 MB. It would be like downloading 7 map packs (21 divided by 3 is 7.) 7 times 400 is 2800. That's 2.8 GB's worth of maps you'll need to re-download, now I don't know about you but it'll take me about 3 days to download that with my crappy 786KBPS internet)

EDIT: Sorry for the bump, I walked away for a few minutes, refreshed and didn't know how long ago the last post was made.

If they did that, then anyone with an original Halo 3 disc wouldnt be able to see the new armor.

... For Firefight. They also made The Rookie, Mickey, Dutch, Romeo, Buck, and Dare for Campaign. Firefight =/= Halo 3 Multiplayer / Halo 3: ODST Disk 2.

Firefight is a part of Halo 3: ODST, whereas Halo 3: ODST Disk 2 is literally Halo 3 copied and pasted. It's the SAME EXACT GAME AS REGULAR HALO 3, just on a different disk and without campaign. They'll still run into the same armor problem every way the approach it...

Like you said in your earlier post. Sgt. Johnson would be ODST's Recon. It is on the disc but it is only accessible to certain players.

I made a counterpoint that statement on another thread, so no...it is not impossible.

I never said they can't, neither did Bungie themselves. They just simply stated that it is extremely inefficient, and I'm simply agreeing.

Yeah...Recon.

Shhh, don't tell Sage!
Holy freedom fries!

No, it is not possible.
For one thing, READ THE UPDATES.
Kay.
Next, as someone already stated, The armour would not show up on A regular halo3: matchmaking, thus, because it is not downloadable, Cause problems.

Who burnt the bacon?

Recon is not new stupid

  • 06.20.2009 3:54 PM PDT

Man is born free but everywhere he is in chains.

Well how about this, new armor is impossible in Halo 3 without creating a giant nucience for the system. I'm not going to reiterate so read up on what some well informed guys have to say.

This is meant to reply to isbd or whatever his name was

Do you even know how games work?

I take everything I'm told with a large barrel of salt so I guess I'm just biased to experience...
