Subject: Last day to pre order? -and some questions.

A soldier should never be honored for something that was expected

whats the final date to pre order ODST for the 2 bonuses?

and i have some questions

1.how aften are you alone?are they many levels where you have a team?

2.is EVERY weapon is ODST new?are there any older weapons from halo 1-3?

3.No shields?just plain health,if you lose it,it doesnt come back?thats sounds hard,especially in that 1 level[i think its level 1]where your all alone in a huge city.

pretty much it.

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

2 bonuses?
SGT johnson and...
?
and to answer your quesitons:
1.how aften are you alone?are they many levels where you have a team?


as rookie, you are alone. during flashbacks you have marines to help you and some other squadmates*

2.is EVERY weapon is ODST new?are there any older weapons from halo 1-3?


no. only the silenced SMG and the fancy automag pistol. most of the halo 3 weapons are there, no BR, and there is the brute plasma rifle again! yay!

3.No shields?just plain health,if you lose it,it doesnt come back?thats sounds hard,especially in that 1 level[i think its level 1]where your all alone in a huge city.

you have 'shields', then health.
shields on ODST are stamina. this kinda works like CoD health, then when that's all the way down you start to take actual damage that will kill you**

*unless you play co-op
**from my understanding

Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

The final pre-order date hasn't been said yet, but typically it's near a month before it's out.

1. If your roaming around New Mombasa at night, your by yourself. If your doing a select objective during the day, your with a team

2. Nope. The only new weapons are the silenced SMG and the new Automag Pistol. Oh, and they brought back the Brute Plasma Rifle from Halo 2, it shoots read and it's a lot faster

3. There's a shield system called Stamina, but it does next to nothing and can only absorb about 2 bullets before you lose health. Stamina recharges, but your health does not (Like Halo 1's Shield system and Health system.)

You will get Sargent Johnson and the Reach beta.


Sorry, but you only get Johnson with the pre-order. You don't have to pre-order to get the Reach beta.

There is only one pre-order bonus, Sgt. Johnson for Firefight. Everything else is included without pre-order. The last pre-order day (For GameStop) is the day before ODST comes out.

That still means I was correct, I said he would get the beta ;)


Yea, but the way it was worded made it sound like you got both if you pre-ordered.

w8 you dont have to pre order to get the reach beta?
so does that mean if i bought it after its release i still get the beta?[not that it matters considering ill pre order anyway for johnsonXD]

btw,how does the beta work?like,how do you get to it?is there an option on the ODST disc or something?[srry but the halo reach beta would be my 1st beta i will play,so im new at the beta's :)]

and you do have shields?huh,i heard there was no shields and you just have health.but,like in halo 2,i never saw shields on ODST's.if they get shot just blood comes out,what are shields new to ODST in the game?
