Subject: New role for the Drone in ODST?

well seeing new videos of Halo 3 ODST achievements, there are bout two or three achievements with pictures of drones and with mentioning of a hive.
Now this is some speculation, but i sense a Drone queen boss. Anyone think this would be good?

Idiot can be a hard language to learn, but once you get it down, everything becomes so clear! The whole world will make sense to you.

It could be cool, if executed corectly.

Imagine Buck fighting it with a flamethrower, and after expending the fuel he jumps on it with his combat knife, and so begins a button-mashing sequence in there you eventualy burry his knife in the queen's head in midair, and procede to ride it as it crashes onto the street, spreading innards like butter on toast. Buck wipes blood from his visor and sheaths his knife.

Iam enjoying Halo Reach and revisiting some past Bungie games, iam a big fan of Bungie and their online community.

It seems like it could be possible.

僕を判断しないでください。

ive always hated the drones (in a good way). cant wait to watch them drop like, their not so distant cousin, flies.

Drone Hives are most likely referring to the huge swarms of Drones that attack, since only one, or a small group poses a small threat. This is why they fight in full groups, of their Hives. I also remember a marine yelling "Drones! A Full Hive!" at the part on "Crow's Nest" where the large swarm of Drones attack you.

All I have to say is it can't be any worst then fighting 343 GS in Halo 3.

Guilty Spark was depressingly easy to kill.

That would explain the flamethrower on Data Hive. A swarm of drones needs to be crispy.

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.

Agreed a chieftain would easily harder than him (or it)..

He actually says, "Drones! A full swarm!" which leads me to believe that a Hive would be something altogether more sinister. Something similar to what High Charity has become, yet with Drones instead of Flood.

Just for that, this idea wins.

For every action, there is an equal and opposite airstrike.

The likelyhood of a queen drone is very low.

"Hey, we're in hostile territory, let's show mum around! She'll love it!"

Just, no. No sense risking your leaders like that. Evan Tarturus wasn't a frontline attacker.

It actually makes more sense for the Drones to set up a Hive on the planet. There would be more than one queen in a planet full of Drones. So why not set up a hive on the planet being attacked so you can quickly deploy the Drones.

hmmm... well for me a drone queen doesnt really fit the game... i think there will be swarms of drones patroling streets... but no queen, but that would be an interesting thing to put in the game

Yeah that wouldn't be the right execution of this... a button sequence... really.... wtf.... is this what other Halo players are thinking of... how to ruin Halo!
Dude this isn't Transformers: The Moive The Game its Halo. How are button sequences even remotely fun.
But nice role-playing with Buck there.

I'm sure a five second long sequence won't "ruin" Halo. Nice try though.

I'd love some sort of Queen Drone, yet another nod to Aliens, but I can't see any reason why a Queen Drone would be there unless Drones only obey their Queen. In which case killing a Queen could be a pretty important objective.

The AR is an awesome weapon, RESPECT IT AS SUCH!!!

apart from the fact that those videos are all fake, thats quite a good idea and would be extremely fun!

  • 06.30.2009 2:03 PM PDT

A queen would be awesome, kind of like he queen from Aliens... except it would be able to fly.

  • 06.30.2009 2:27 PM PDT

Screw the Rules i have Money!

I always like to hurt drones and would welcome more in ODST
