Great work, Sanjeev!

Ahem.....If anyone is interested in a community group about ODST, may I refer to my very own group Shock troopers Central?

Hehehe.

I'm a shameless self promoter.

But yes, great work, Sanjeev! this convinced me to get twitter, as much as I hate it...

But, you totally should join STC. Really, you all should. Do it now, please?!

As soon as ODST hits stores and then our Xbox 360s, it's all most of the people on all our friends lists will be playing. As soon as Modern Warfare 2 is released, everyone not playing ODST or Halo 3 Multiplayer will be playing that.

Halo 3: ODST
-Campaign
-Firefight
-Halo 3 Multiplayer
-Halo: Reach Multiplayer beta (when it goes live in 2010)

Modern Warfare 2
-Campaign
-Multiplayer


This is what everyone will be playing for months. Though expect to see mostly Halo titles being played.

Because then all we'll get is the same gameplay style.

Also, Come on guys! More Support!

This is a great idea but unfortunately I forsee someone abusing the system.

I would recommend that a Hashtag on Twitter is used instead. Something like #ODSTFirefight or something. That way you can go to search.twitter.com and search for the Hashtag. Or you could use an App like TweetDeck to deliver those tweets with the Hashtag on it for you.

Thats true Pokeh but that may end up being overlooked, you know? At least this way, there are chances of some tweets being overlooked, but its much, much more less.

I do see the possibility of someone abusing the system. That's why the username and password isn't public at the moment. I'm looking at ways to make it less abusable and have come up with a few ideas but I don't know. Announcement soon.

Good to have you and thanks for the support.

There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

"I would have been your daddy, but the dog beat me over the fence."

Nice idea and the best solution to the matchmaking problem yet. Not only that, it is in some ways better. Without matchmaking it forces us to search for people ourselves, filtering out the idiots, the kids and those who just cannot be arsed.

So in oher words, WIN!

[*Please note that anything in my posts is likely to be filled with sarcasm, and should be taken with a pinch of salt. I tend to help people, usually*]

I don't like the idea of everyone posting "Hey I want to play with someone, add me: blahblahblah" on the one account. I think it would be better if you got people to @bnetfirefight and say that they're looking for games, and you could Retweet for them. Give the password to a few selected trustworthy members and get them to RT as well. But I want to say, don't ever give the password out publicly. The Internet cannot be trusted not to misuse that sort of thing.

I like this idea though, as long as you change the way it works slightly.

I'll retweet this as soon as you've made some ammends.

I have been leaning towards this. Problem is, it might be a bit too much for our community to do. At least with an account, they can post themselves. I may make it such that people post games in the group and a bunch of selected people retweet that on the thing. A slight modification to your suggestion.

I joined and followed the twitter page. Maybe the bnet page for firefights and mine could partner up? as well as my group and your ideas as well. My group page is here. Also please note that to join my group you dont HAVE to play as, or even have, Sgt Johnson, its just a formality :) But you can play as whomever you want even when playing as a team.

Partnerships are done within the group itself. Post it in there and ODST Mickey will consider and possibly hook you up if he's cool with it.

Hehe, hey buddy, I beat you to it a while ago lol

FFC We just began organizing some new things going on in FFC, check it out.

Our group is for more organized gameplay. If you're for more free style, for the hell of it, play then you might not want our group but if you're into more organized gameplay and ranking systems, FFC is the place to be.

Well, now that I see more and more groups promoting themselves here, I guess I don't feel as frustrated anymore since it's pretty much a free advertising thread ;)
