Subject: Will the HUD change when you play as Sgt. Johnson?

I swear everyone skips past the B.net homepage to come straight to the Halo 3: ODST Forum and ask the most obvious question in the book.

Anyone with half a brain can see that Johnson is just a character skin to play as. No HUD changes, nothing. Many people knew this would almost certainly be the case and then Bungie comfirmed it in yesterday's Update.

He didn't call anyone a "nobody."


Wrong. Use your head, i clearly said many times in this forum, AND IN THE MAIN POST OF THIS TOPIC,

that "I" cared that Johnson has a helmet/doesn't have a helmet. Yet, he responds to my post saying that "nobody" cares, therefore calling me a nobody

Use your head before you post, think before you act, etc. You're not Stephen Hawking, you don't need someone else to think for you.


Alright, I'm going to be nice, because I know that you're just going to get your panties in an even bigger bunch if I do this the sarcastic way.

On second thought, I'm going to have fun with this.

A) When I say that nobody cares whether Johnson's helmet/visor is a violation of fictional continuity, I mean that it is a completely irrelevant topic of debate which is dwarfed by actual issues pertaining to gameplay that are far more worthy of conversation.

B) You should probably try not to take random people on the internet so seriously. I'm not your big brother, or your best friend, or someone of any reasonable relation to you as a human being and member of society. I can't taunt you in front of your classmates. Even if I did call you a nobody, it should not have affected you this much. If it makes you feel any better, pretend that I'm just a ten-year-old who knows how to spell. See? In your mind, I haven't even hit puberty yet. Much better. Now you don't have to be personally offended when I tell you that it's pointless to argue over miniscule continuity breaks that exist only to prevent breakdowns in gameplay balance.

Now, instead of trying to police my posts, you can continue your discussion and pretend this conversation never even happened. I won't tell your mom. I promise.

Hush. If you’re quiet enough, you can hear it on lips of unborn babes.

You should keep in mind that Johnson isn't even on Earth during the events of ODST.

The reason he is even in Firefight is because of the enormous amounts of complaints from people who can't seem to enjoy playing as a certain type of character and always want to play as another character (playing as Brutes/ODSTs Halo's multiplayer). As it has been said before, the Johnson character is just a skin meaning he is basically the ODST model with a slightly different appearance. Bungie has even brought up this exact topic in one of their updates and their answer was something along the lines of: It's just a video game!
