Hello Flood. i've been watching the ODST demo and I've notice that the SMG isn't really silenced at all. will this affect the possibility to silently take out enemies without others noticing?

It's never been called a Silenced SMG. It's a suppressed SMG. It's not supposed to be silent. Just Suppressed. Joe said so.

Woop woop.

IRL Suppressors aren't that effective at making a weapon completely silenced, they are made to suppress the flash from the barrel. For example, if you shoot a "silenced" weapon from high base on Snowbound, somebody across the map will still hear you, just not as much as a un suppressed gunshot.

So your are suggesting that the silencer on the SMG does not silence the SMG, therefore the SMG with a silencer doesn't have a silencer.

Yeah, you heard me.

Will there be stealth elements in the game? Unlike Halo where there wasn't really any sneaking and assassinating, atleast not as much as anyone really wanted.

From all the gameplay videos out, no, there will be absolutely no stealth elements involved except maybe trying to sneak around Brute squads when you don't have much health to work with. I'm actually really dissapointed with Bungie's job of trying to make the ODST not much like the chief. You can still beat down Brutes, which is insane because they're 2 or 3 feet taller than you, and there's no strategy involved in Firefight.

The SMG and Pistol are merely suppressed, not silenced. Not really. They're still loud and catch your opponent's attention.
