OMFG... Yes! It's been confirmed by Bungie, and maybe by yourself if you had seen the trailer!

  • 06.25.2009 6:31 PM PDT

Death to rank junkies.

Did you even watch the trailer?

  • 06.25.2009 6:36 PM PDT

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

No one wants to be rude but Bungie said it a million times. The trailer tells you with the explosion. Unless you didn't play halo 2.

"Do not mistake your rank and number for superiority. The oldest child may learn from the youngest."

Wasn't it stated in numerous places that the events on ODST will take place shortly after Halo 2? Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it Regret's carrier that we see make the slipspace jump in both Halo 2 and the beginning of ODST? If so, it seems the ODST timeline begins about six hours (judging by the Rookies intro screen) after the end of the level Metropolis in Halo 2.

Halo 3:ODST takes place between Halo 2 and Halo3.

Oh my... seriously?!

My Faildar has broken. Your epic levels of fail have left me unable to detect any more for the rest of the night. I hope you're happy.

I'm guessing the OP doesn't even know about MJ or Ferra Fawcett yet...

Duh. The beggining even is the ending of a Halo 2 level. :P


God, common sense isn't so common anymore.

  • 06.25.2009 7:23 PM PDT

Have you been living in a cave?, the whole first level is part of the first half of halo 2

It's Halo 3: ODST because it was originally classified as an expansion to the game.

  • 06.25.2009 8:39 PM PDT

because it uses the same game engines as Halo 3, that is why.

  • 06.26.2009 5:01 AM PDT

are you insane?

Yep. Halo 2.

As Jeff from Giant Bomb put it, it was then called Halo 3: Recon because you were doing recon for the events of Halo 3. You were literally doing Halo 3 Recon.

They -blam!- that up when they changed the name but you get it. :D








In all seriousness though, its because they use the same engine I guess and also because Halo 3 is the current Halo FPS branding.

Thinking with Portals since '07

Battlefield 3 sucks.

It's located in the Halo 2 area of New Mombasa. The time, or when, Halo 3: ODST takes place is roughly 2 weeks before Halo 3. It's more like halo 2.5, in my opinion, because I doubt the story line follows into Halo 3.
