I think what the OP is trying to insinuate is that the rookie is going to be just as hard to kill as the spartans. Since he's supposed to be just a war hardened ODST, but a human nonetheless, he should die within a couple of shots. They've just replaced shields with stamina. So in essence its still the same game. I'm not complaining, but I do agree with him.

Moar health less shields. The stamina is a very small amount, and is just there so that running into one grunt with a plasma pistol won't wear your health down. It's nowhere near the power of MCs shields, and it has a health system similar to CE.

OMG this is where my signiture goes..... oh.. wait...


Finished the Fight!! 09/28/07!

There is a simple explaination for this

1: Its still a Halo game. Bungie putting throwbacks into their games isn't that much a new concept me friend.

2. Countless upon countless people who do not keep up with the news on the game, like us, who do not understand the differences between the Rookie and Chief, would be whining and bawling like crazy should the Rookie actually play more "human" and die easier, not have very much strength, etc etc etc.

So they couldn't really make too many changes between the two characters, even if they wanted too. Maybe when it comes to things like flipping the 'hogs and whatnot, it takes longer, or theres some of that super spiffy First Person dialog that they've implemented into the game that shows him straining under the wait of the Hog. (IE Grunting, panting, etc etc, get your mind outta the gutters you pervs, etc etc, so on so forth.)

Actually it takes two shots of a sniper to the head to kill an ODST in Halo 3. Still, you're slower and can't jump as high as a Spartan, and you don't have a motion tracker. The VISR may be a similar replacement but it doesn't let you see behind you. I see what you're saying though, but if you want it to be more like you're playing as an actual ODST just play on a higher difficulty.

EDIT: Also, as for flipping hogs, the vehicles in Halo seem to have some kind of device installed so they can be flipped by anyone. I have seen ODSTs and normal marines flip tanks, a LOT.

Just on that "flip a warthog on his own" part.......Have we seen any fotage of flipping vericals in ODST.........no. so for all we know it might take at least 2 people to flip a hog like in H3 campiagn where if there more than one player both have to be next to the terminal for it to work. but. overall. I disagree with your opinion.

Same here. I'm not sure what difficulty they were playing at E3, but it looked really easy.

Isn't it the same gameplay engine? For God's sake it's Halo 3: ODST.

Yeah, you're right

Duracell.
I don't keep going and going and going and...
but i Start, and just don't Stop.

So what if the saxophone is black?
it has better tone the the gold one.
damn straight i play Jazz.

from what i've seen the stamina is a take one hit deal so after taking one shot it's gone. nothing compared to the sheilds...
