I wast thinking how the odst coop would be played out, in charecter sense, e,g is there going to be like 4 rookies, like there was 4 Mc's in halo 1 and 2? And flashback missions, is there going to be a clone of the guy you play as in the single player?

The only reason I can give for the flashback is if one of you is say, Dutch, and the other is Micky, like in the e3 demo.

If any one knows anytthing please tell

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Im sure on every mission theres gona be 2 ODSTs, as in the bridge flashback theres Dutch and Mickey, the other one for if someone comes to play Co Op

That's a very interesting point, I hadn't even thought of that. Maybe it's just the rest of the squad....but that wouldn't make much sense because from what we've heard so far on the story is that it's told through flashbacks and that the Rookie is alone.... Maybe someone else could enlighten this subject....lol

im pretty sure that the other players will be random extra ODSTs who have no contribution to the story line

Staten said in E3 booths to IGN that it would be 4 player coop, but a picture of the campaign lobby above the player says ( 2 max), so maybe its only 2 player? In the gameplay trailer it shows a drop pod and it says - Press B to pry open, maybe this is how you unlock your coop buddy, he might not even be apart of your selcted squad, im sure in the trailer more drop pods were released than just your squad.

I was just thinking they would be a normal ODST not involved with the story, because the flashbacks, and I thought it would suit the situation more than another rookie. I'm probably wrong though.

I just watched the gameplay trailer, and to me when the 2 ODST's are on the mongoose they look identical ( they are both the same)

What I think will happen is you will only have 2player co-op OFFLINE or LOCAL otherwise 4 player

If you ever try and fail.....erase all evidence that it was you who tried

he was playing local dude

They'll probably say that you found another random ODST from a different squad.

NY Giants
Miami Heat

They play as regular ODSTs. I assume for Co-op they'll have it like halo 1 were they figured in the co-op guy in the cut scenes as well.

hopefully they do have co-op

I think it will be like H2 where you had 2 chiefs or 2 arbiters. So for example 2 Rookies.

drink tea get rad!

let me think on this one my friend

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Mine has two separate levels of zoom: 'Up-close-and-personal' and 'Hello-you're-dead'.

You could be the Rokies's brother! Nah just kidding.
I think you are a random ODST in the city.
