Sorry, I can't hear them over the sounds of Modern Warfare 3 on my Turtle Beaches.

First question (noobish one if you ask me), but is the film option going to return in ODST. After seeing the environments in the Campaign and Firefight, there are good maps to take photos of ODSTs and Covenant with different shades of lighting, especially the Crater (Night) level of Firefight. That map looks great for taking screenshots.

Second, I'd like to direct your attention to this video:

At 8:14, the player is fighting Drones and one of the Drones is firing a weapon that fires red rounds. Is that the Brute Plasma Rifle or the Needler, I can't tell but when the player walks over the Drones, it says Hold RB to pick up what appears to look like a Plasma Rifle. Will Drones be using the Brute Plasma Rifle in ODST?

1. Yes theatre is coming back, at numerous press conferences, they show cased Firefight by using old films instead of actually playing it, so they could show it from different view points, etc.
It was also confirmed a while ago.
2. Yes, that is the Brute Plasma Rifle, that has also been confirmed as a weapon for ODST. And yes, apparently, drones will be able to use it.

oh death was never enemy of ours

for the first question they will probably have the theatre option
and the video loads weirdly so its probably the brute rifle

Thanks Deegs!

Why would the Drones be using the Brute Plasma Rifle? It's clearly the BRUTE Plasma Rifle, but I find it cool that Drones are using another weapon other than the Pistol and Needler. Looking forward to fighting BPR wielding Drones.
