Title says it all. This relates to ODST because all other posts say, "It doesn't follow cannon" ad stuff like that

I think it means storyline or like factual fiction (?).

Idk it just basically means that it doesn't follow the rest of the games/books if its not canon lol.

So like if in a book it says a certain ODST got crippled in a battle and in a game/book taking place after (chronologically) that same ODST is fine it doesn't follow canon.

"Canon" is the set storyline. So if something doesn't follow canon, then it makes no sense when paired with the story. An example is why some people are questioning why Johnson is a playermodel, since he was actually at Delta Halo at the time of ODST. This means that it does not follow the canon if Johnson is at Earth at all.

I can only please one person per day.

Today isn't your day.

Tomorrow isn't looking too good either.

Johnson being in Firefight doesn't break the canon of Halo, because it is a multiplayer experience, and none of the mulitplayer modes in any Halo in considered "canon" to the story.

A cannon is any tubular piece of artillery that uses gunpowder or other usually explosive-based propellants to launch a projectile over a distance.

Just send me a FR if you want to play.

I play any playlist, and most customs, unless your version of infection sucks.
