Subject: This would be awsome in the Co-Op.

It would be so cool if when someone died they would respawn falling from the sky in another pod.

totally that would be awesome and when you fall back down to the battle and maybe hit a brute.

Extra cover for everyone. ROFL. But to the point, that would get a little overused, I can see it now,"Dude die so you can crush that group of brutes over there.!!!"
It would be cool but it would probably ruin the strategic game play

Too time consuming.

I don't see how. You mean that it would take long to drop from the sky?

No. It would be like: 4..3..2..1..BEEP then bam! Door opens automatically and you get pushed out.

The pods would land close to teammates and not across the map.

There wouldn't be alot of pods in the map at the same time since there's a team life limit.

The only problem I see with this is developing the pod so it won't drop on teammates or enemies. It won't be hard, but it will take alot of testing (weeks worth).

Also, what if you die and your teammates are surrounded in a corner? Where would your drop pod fall? Mmmm

most people say never eat yellow snow... i disagree

if anything if you did drop in a drop pod it would be when you have taken out all the covenent in a certain area, and it would alert all covenant forces in a small radius so you would have to leave quickly

  • 06.25.2009 2:30 AM PDT

Four shots, four kills, reload, repeat. This is the work of a sniper.

That would be cool, I thought it was sooooo cool when at the beginning of campaign it did the beep.beep.beep.beep and then he shot down. That would be cool, and for the people complaining about there being pods everywhere, they could fade away after a while like bodies is Halo 3. Although that would require a whole new animation and lots of other stuff, but it would be sick.

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

Nuh, it's a good idea though. But it's just fun maybe respawning. I can see dropping down from a pod continously, you'll just be saying. ''Can't i just respawn?'' Also that would mean they would have to drop from an orbiting ship from above. ODST's cant just drop randomly from anywhere in space and survive.

Yea but the ship is out of view.

I can already imagine pods dropping out of the sky. Would be totally epic..

TOTALLY EPIC DAMN IT!

"There is no such this as innocence, only degrees of guilt."

Remember, The task ahead is NOTHING compared to the power of what we have already achieved.

Sounds cool but if this were to happen then it would drop you down maybe at the end of the enemy wave?

  • 06.25.2009 3:33 AM PDT

...it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye..

yeah but not all the levels would be outside? what happens if your on an enemy ship and die? u cant just crash through the roof in a pod? or if you die whilst in a building. crazy idea though lol...

Yeah. It's you against a squad of brutes, and you're pinned down. Then your teammates come crashing down, and help you push back the brutes. Ohhhh mah GOD that would be epic.

  • 06.25.2009 4:33 AM PDT

Juzzz is my name, sniping my fame. You cannot aim, its not your team to blame!

*English is my 2nd language, spell check is on but don't blame me on my grammar plz.

the idea is awesome, but i think its not going to work cause of the endless respawns.

lets say you play on legendary and die a lot, there will be like 50 pods..

on the other hand its maybe an nice idea in Firefight. You have like 7 lives so no more then 7 pods falling from the sky.

  • 06.25.2009 6:07 AM PDT

In firefight: Yes!

In any other mode: Nah, to time consuming.

  • 06.25.2009 6:14 AM PDT

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Yeah, that's along the same lines of what I was thinking, as well. I could possibly see it in Firefight, but in the campaign, it wouldn't really fit with the plot, I don't think. If we're playing as the rookie who just woke up from his pod crashing, then when he dies, he shouldn't drop in again.

Although, in co-op campaign, I'm not sure who we'll technically be playing as. In H3, with 4 players), there was the Chief, the Arbiter, and then 2 other random elites? So in ODST, would we have the Rookie (or a different character) and then 3 random ODST's?

  • 06.25.2009 6:21 AM PDT

In campaign? No, that is for sure not stealthy.

  • 06.25.2009 6:31 AM PDT

dna/ dna donut/ dnanrnrnaninf

yes in the campaign and i hope that people would overuse it and how would you land on brutes you couldn't do that.

  • 06.25.2009 1:34 PM PDT

~~Christian

it would be cool, but since you loose like half your helath when you drop, they would probably enter into an infinite loop of dying

  • 06.25.2009 1:36 PM PDT

Spelling doesn't count past 3 AM.
Some guy made this for me

There's a limited amount of lives in the game, so no, no there wouldn't be. There would probable be a maximum of 8 pods in each game (Isn't that how many lives they said you had in Firefight?)

Not really. You'll only get hurt if you land in a really bad spot (I.E on a wraith, in water, etc.)

Just as every cop is a criminal,
And all the sinners saints,
As heads is tails, just call me lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint.

Bow chicka honk honk.

Maybe not to respawn, but dropping in at the start of a firefight match would be awesome. Just four pods, guided or otherwise, dropping four ODSTs/Johnson(s)/Dare(?) into the map. Yeah.

that would be cool but there would be all kinds of glitchs to get out of the level but that still would be very cool.

  • 06.25.2009 2:23 PM PDT

That would be a totaly epic start to a firefight match dropping in with pods and then you would only have a max of 4 pods. But not for respawning that might mess teh gameplay up
