All I can say is that I hope they aren't because i don't want to be the one watching an ODST lunging at a Brute from far back like some sort of Dino, lol

Why Hello There ;D

Wait the sword would be a good stealth weapon sneaking behind a bunch of brutes and stabbing them in the back, well thats what I think.

Huge lunge, One hit kill, Glow in the Dark, Covenant Weapon. Doesn't really fit the ODST description so I don't really view it as a stealth weapon if I can't picture the user using the weapon.

Shorten lunge, and keep you SMG out sneak up behind the brutes and then take out the sword and stealthily kill them all, does that make it better? Also even if the gravity hammer is only in fire fight wait is it? any way its not much of a stealthy weapon either.

Because maybe some died before all of the elites on earth left with Regret? Duh.

The elites that got killed by master chief and some could have been killed by the slip space thing, also what do you mean by a brute invasion?

yea i dont think the energy sword would loose a stealth feel to the game but the hammer would.

sorry, but i doubt it. I can't actually visualize an ODST using a sword and it kind of defeats the purpose of playing at a distance and using cover unlike the "run up and beat down" tactic that's commonly seen in Halo 3. yeah, i just doubt it...the dead elite thing is a good idea, and still might happen, but i just doubt it.

Sucks.


Wow could you think of a better reason to explain how an energy sword could make it in odst im just saying what if you don't have to be a jerk about it.

  • 06.28.2009 3:50 PM PDT

The ODST SMG has the same range as the AR does in Halo 3.

They have the same reticule size...
in fact i think they have the exact same reticule.

  • 06.28.2009 3:54 PM PDT

I think the smg is more accurate than the AR in ODST.

I wish we had some awesome sword better than the ESword in ODST, something with double the power and double the lunge distance, but hen again, that might tick one too many people off in MM.

Like I said in another forum.

No Elites= No sword.

There is no sword.
NO SWORD
Get it, got it, good.

Now something new.

I dont htink the sword would melt under the rain.

Elites were present in NM. A dead elite somewhere could have an energy sword next to him.

ok for one halo wouldnt just ditch the sword its an important addition in this row of halo games and its one of the few qweapons thats been in all halo games so they wouldnt stop here so i do think the sword would be avaible at some point to the player by the way check out theawesome screen shots i took of odst they are the bottom 3 in my file share http://www.bungie.net/stats/Halo3/FileShare.aspx?gamertag=bra nman12 copy and paste if u have to

It would be cool but they probably would take out lunging

  • 06.28.2009 7:56 PM PDT

Oya!!!!!

Maybe we will get a energy hidden hand blade (Altiar much?)

I want it but no lunge

There is no reason why the Energy Sword can't be in ODST. Just as there was a Flamethrower deep inside High Charity in H3 next to a dead ODST there could be an Energy Sword in New Mombasa next to a dead Elite.

Spartans are from Venus and Elites are from Uranus

I really don't care if it is or isn't in the game. Considering there aren't any Elites though I doubt sword will be around either.

well you cant say that there isn't a small possibility of it making it into the game just because Bungie said we wont be fighting elites doesn't mean we wont find any dead ones.

Also there should be plenty of dead elites in the city.
