if you don't think it's worth it don't buy it, don't come here and complain to us.

im buying it because
1. it's halo, and ive been happy with every halo related purchase i have ever made (even halo wars)
2. the gameplay looks good in ODST, firefight is something i have been looking forward to.
3. the campaign looks to have a compelling story, akin to Halo: CE (im very happy that there is no multiplayer, now all they need to focus on is the story)

that's it, i don't care about the 2nd disk... i see it as a bonus (like mythic maps with halo wars)

It wasn't too hard for me to buy the game. I just pre-ordered online. What was hard about that?

First no actual multiplayer. Then firefight not matchmaking? WTF? y would u even consider doing that? Please explain to me ur logic behind that one. come on a campaign is not enough to sell a damn game. Even if it comes with some stupid -blam!- maps that most people probably weren't going to buy anyways. =O thats -blam!- right. most people dont give a -blam!- about halo anymore so stop acxting like ur so cool and just get with the damn program.
and your on the bungie forum? how dose this make you look Mr. Exalted member... you have obviously been around for a while so, tell us why you have had a change of heart. PS: bungie vs the world proved that people still love halo and are interested.

PPS: halo ODST: Firefight runs on a campaign engine, not multiplayers, thus it is impossible to incorporate a multiplayer searching system using the old halo 3 engine.


I dont have a change of heart. Bungie gave ME 2 great games and 1 good game. I just dont understand how a campaign only game is worth 60. I know to some people it is, but i am just skeptical. Ill probably end up getting it the first week anyway so it doesnt matter

Then why did you create this topic in the first place?

Rule 6: Respect the Admins

“It’s their website, and they can do whatever the hell they like with it. You’re a guest, and hassling them about how they run things is akin to going round your Auntie’s house and curling one out in her tea-pot.”

Actually a story/campaign is enough to sell a game. YOu have prototype, wolverine: origins, most of the final fantasy series, oblivion, hell every game before online play was thought of.

You're just a dumb a** that needs to get over it. I bet if firefight had matchmaking you would be one of the people that would cry about how sh**y your team is and how they use up all the lives in the first round anyways.

If you ever consider suicide let me help you out. The cess pool would be that much cleaner with out your idiocy.

..It's a campaign expansion, dick. And thousands would have bought mythic part 2, unfortunately for you whiny 9 year old self, the ONLY WAY TO GET THE NEW MAPS IS TO BUY ODST. SO quit whining, if you don't want to pay that much, SHUT YOUR MOUTH, honestly. I'm so sick of you whining children, I really would beat the -blam!- out of you if I could! And people do care about, Halo, obviously, since YOU BOTHERED TO GO TO THERE WEBSITE TO COMPLAIN..

Get out, you dick, and never come back.

/rage.

It's a six hour expansion basically to halo 2 but you're an ODST trooper. It has firefight mode and campaign co-op. Why would you expect matchmaking? If it even had matchmaking it would be awkward and just plain weird.

yeah they say its an expansion. but honestly wat expansion is $60?


Expansions often sell at the same price as their original game.

"Looks at wow"

Yea but WOW isnt $60 and it has alot of content when they have expansions...This one does not have Matchmaking and has a small Campaign so why should it be that much money for just a new FireFight Mode and a short story and a Beta for Reach

  • 07.11.2009 9:39 AM PDT

if you dont think its worth it dont buy it the price is not going to change

  • 07.11.2009 9:41 AM PDT

don´t worry about the price.... i think its cheap..

Well you gotta admit there giving us, a new campaign all of the halo 3 multiplayer maps if nobody already has them, the halo 3 multiplayer on the seperate disc a invintation to the halo reach beta, It's alot of stuff there really giving us. Oh and recon, I could care less anymore, but they seem to be giving us alot. Well then again you can only get the recon with the rest of the vidmasters. =/ But there giving us alot, its worth it.

Ok lets clarify something.
I hav friends. But most of my friends dont play halo anymore. shocker to u people i know.
U know bungie priced this wrong(or microsoft i'll admit im not sure which) so they should just fix the goddamn price. Yes i know its still gonna sell. But thats just because of brainwashed fanboys like u. not because its a good game


How the hell do you judge a game you never played?


If you don't buy it that doesn't mean it automatically sucks.

What program?

First off, expansions don't usually have multiplayer. ODST was intended to be a simple campaign expansion where Bungie could try a new game style. Plus, making an entirely Matchmaking system would simply mean having to devote hardwork to that Matchmaking next, making maps and monitoring it. Which is a lot of work when you're still making other games.

Yes, the second disc has annoyed a lot of people since it seemingly provides all the maps for cheap. But really, all these complaining morons would probably buy ODST disc 1 as a standalone for $60. I would. Oh and 1 little reminder, Microsoft makes the prices, not Bungie.

And based on how many people still play MM (*cough*Most played on Live for several months *cough*) and how many people bought the last maps, I don't think they'll have a problem with people buying them.

Your last two sentences express incredible biased ignorance. Perhaps you should get over your delusions of Bungie being out to get you, and stop acting like an idiot. You will probably buy ODST, after doing all this complaining.

But one thing I still don't get. Your last sentence makes absolutely no sense. What "program?" The program that involves churning sequels of a single good game yearly with the same multiplayer, and a storyline about some new character no one cares about. I think I'd rather go for Bungie, who stay with their games far longer than most devellopers.

  • 07.11.2009 10:21 AM PDT

We've gone years without matchmaking paying full price for games. You'll survive just one more. Maybe they wanted to do that because they didn't think the Halo Community was a bunch of whiney babies. But too bad a good portion of the community is under 14

Really? If you didn't get a complete nerd-gasm from the opening drop-pod sequence, you aren't human. That scene alone was enough to sell the game for me.
