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.

the ODST's are in fact capable of taking down a scarab tank. see my PIC, even if it was with pilot support.

please note the scarab is taking the killing blow from that ODST's spartan laser, as the 'engine room' light is turning red

But will we have Hornets?

But will we have levels big enough to support Scarabs?

But will the levels be fun for the 90% of the time we aren't fighting the Scarab?

Five years older and wiser
The fires are burning, I'm fire, never tire
Slay warriors in the forests, and on hire

Who cares about scarabs.

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'.

Like someone said How do you know if H3:ODST will have hornets?
Because other way, we will need a lot of rocket launcher ammo.

i would say it's likely.... however we don't know

But will we have levels big enough to support Scarabs? no clue

Vrrin Vrrin, yeah here I come.

um yeah. and by the way, those are just computer controlled ODST's, not thinking, breathing humans.

im sure scarabs will be just as easy to take down in halo 3 ODST as they are in halo 3.

Just as every cop is a criminal,
And all the sinners saints,
As heads is tails, just call me lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint.

"Apparently people don't like the truth, but I do like it; I like it because it upsets a lot of people. If you show them enough times that their arguments are bull-blam!-, then maybe just once, one of them will say, 'Oh! Wait a minute I was wrong.' I live for that happening. Rare, I assure you."-Lemmy of Motorhead

Yes, I'm the guy who had the Flood admit to being furries.

That's actually a pilot in that pic, not an ODST.

I think it was hinted in Halo 2 that ODST's/Marines have taken down Scarabs before. Remember Turf? A downed Scarab in the remains olf Old Mombasa. Who knows, maybe we'll be making a cameo trip to Turf in the Campaign, and taking down the Scarab near there.

Turf Description(from the Halo 2 multiplayer map pack booklet)

Rock and Ruin
In the early stages of the Covenant Assault on Earth, the casualties were appalling, but they were not all human. A Scarab, crippled and downed in the center of Old Mombasa by tenacious Marines, has become a focal point for conflict in the aftermath as human forces try to secure their prize.
Page 9 from the booklet of the Halo 2 multiplayer map pack on disc.

If you look at Turf, its post Metropolis(as it would seem). Early stages of the Covenant assault on Earth suggests its around ODST's timeframe. So yeah, maybe we can fight scarabs in ODST. The "prize" may be the ONI building or the Portal.

nice pic.

i hope we do get Scarabs, but if we do, i want them to be basically the hardest thing in the game.
