Subject: Halo 3: ODST Xbox live multiplayer-Question...

So, when people play Halo 3: ODST online will it be just like Halo 3 where you can customize spartan and elite armor, or do you play online as ODST's and you can customize their armor as well...

Also, the achievements say that longshore, heretic, etc are mythic maps, so if you receive ODST and you have not yet purchased the mythic map pack it doesn't let you play the 3 new maps, or is that going to be a whole other map pack...


Lastly, are ODST and halo 3 connected to eachother, because the only way to get the recon helmet is getting the vidmaster and mythic skull achievements, but the new ODST maps are part of mythic, so once you unlock the ODST mythic map skulls then your regular halo 3 account gets the recon????

If you have any intel on either of the 3 questions please tell me...

When you buy Halo 3: ODST, you get 2 discs. First is ODST campaign, Firefight, Theatre and Extras, which allows you play in the Halo: Reach beta.

The second disc is Halo 3, sans Campaign. It includes all of the achievements for TU2, every single map released via Xbox LIVE marketplace and any updates made to the game. The new maps aren't ODST maps, they are new Mythic Maps. ODST's achievements and Halo 3's achievements are not connected together.

ODST's Vidmaster Achievements allow you to unlock Recon. They are obtained on Xbox LIVE. Once you have unlocked the Vidmasters, you get a code on your Bungie.net profile (or something along the lines of that-its in the ODST project page under "Road to Recon") which unlocks your Recon armour for use.

In Firefight, you can customize your ODST's armour.

what i thought was that you just choose a ODST out of the squad when playing firefight not customised your own

You choose an ODST out of the squad, but you can customize your character similar to Halo 3's armour permutations.
