i'm not gonna saying i am the best in the world but what i can say is i prefer the BR over any weapon in the game and feel that if i am not playing MLG then i am wasting my time. that is just my opinion and i understand other people will have seperate opinions but i want to know if you think this game is worth buying for players like myself.

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

MLG or not everyone is the same.

ya i been thinking bout that and thats true but i cant buy a game just because of a single gametype right?

  • 07.18.2009 10:46 AM PDT

Well...uh...do you like games?
ODST won't take over or even make it onto the MLG circuit, because it's a single player/co-op game.

I'd say if you're a gamer, yes, but as far as competition, why would you buy a non versus game?

thats true...then again u dont need a versus mode to make it competitive. it may not make it to a MLG circuit but may still have enough competitivness to fulfill a MLG players needs.

the BR is no longer in campaign

and the matchmaking is Halo 3's

and the three new maps (heretic is midship, and in halo 2 midship was in MLG) will only come with ODST

so the only thing ODST gives you (the MLG player) is new maps

if you like campaign then you'll also like ODST

Well considering Midship was a very popular map among H2 MLG players if you're really that into it yea. But as long as you're not one of those MLG kids who has all of those BK, BR Kings and I'm a Good brig pictures in their file share.

"Dear Bungie.net, we regret being stubborn bastards, we regret coming to this forum, and we most definitely regret that Darth Kooky blew up our raggedy-ass opinion!"

Let's go over this shall we?

ODSTs Campaign and Firefight will be extremely tough on the harder difficulties. That's where you hardcore guys come in. Armed with Carbines and Sniper Rifles, you'll dominate the Covenant. And while you're at it, broaden your horizon. I am extremely happy that the BR has been killed. It's a good weapon yes, but I find a Brute Shot or SMG can easily overpower and obliterate a BR-wielding player. You know MLG has made the majority of Halo players complete @$$holes and take the game way too seriously. It's time their precious BR was thrown in the garbage and replaced with something else (you know, a Carbine isn't far off from a BR and is pretty fun to use). I don't play much MLG if any and one time went onto a match and got an Overkill with a Carbine. They were all using BRs.

Basically, fight a very hard fight without your favourite weapon, making it that much harder.

There's also the fact that you get new maps and you can probably guarantee that Heretic (Midship) will be integrated into the MLG playlist.

All in all, you're dropped into a campaign without your trusty BR and have to survive without it. When you play Firefight, you've got to grab a different weapon and try to destroy endless waves of Covenant baddies without dying. You've also got to have the maps to keep playing your playlist. Firefight will be your ultimate test of your true badassery. You want a challenge? You've got one!

Well first off i have to say well put and i agree with u completly except for the part that u said a brute shot kills a BR wielder and u got a overkill wit a carbine.
THIS IS OFF TOPIC BUT I FEEL LIKE ADDRESSING IT. if u have a brute shot and u just killed a br wielder mid range then that other player rly Sucks. Also u said u got a overkill or w.e well i am willing to bet u were no highier than Lv 30 at that point and fighting people who are not very skilled.

"Thoughts are the shadows of feelings; always darker, emptier, and simpler."

Oh. My. God.

Is the OP serious? What is MLG? Some kind of beuraucracy that believes that games have to meet certain "high standards" in order to be playable?

The world [of gaming] is doomed.

  • 07.18.2009 11:54 AM PDT

Would you dance for it?

I hope not.

Most "MLG' people end up being poor team mates anyway (for objective at least which is more similar to firefight than TS).

Okay i think u are rly taking this the wrong way. i am asking if ODST is a game that someone who enjoys a more competitive style of play is worth buying.

Oh okay, lol. I thought that you were asking if Halo 3: OST was "good enough" for someone who plays in MLG. Sorry for the flame. *puts out bonfire*

I think that the Firefight mode will have something similar to Halo 3's campaign scoring, so if that's what you mean by "competitive", then you should find it enjoyable.
