I can Haz :D

Through out the halo games you can't give a marine a Bruteshot or a ODST a Bruteshot to use, so where does the Rookie get the ability to use one? And i've thought about Bungie taking away and adding things as your a ODST and not a Spartan . Unless it's extra training?

Well, the gameplay would be lacking if you couldn't pick up weapons that you have been using for years especially seeing as how you can no longer duel wield.

Well an ODST is like spartan but they lack armor and bio-enhancements and training, Well i guess it is about balancing reasons aswell.

My troll sense is tingling.

Yes, any has noticed this. I was just talking to him the other day about it.

Back on topic, you can use Brute Shots for the sake of gameplay.

The way to live life is decided by the individual.

Joe did say these ODST are going to be different than the ones in Halo 3. Maybe the ODST left to fight on earth were better trained.

I think it's more likely Bungie wasn't satisfied with how the freindly AI used the Brute shot. It's one thing to give them Rockets or FRC, because those are limited and you can keep an eye on the guy you give it to, but Brute shots are everywhere in Halo 3. You might have a player decide to give a whole squad of Marines Brute shots and that can lead to a bad experience.

58 second win, rendered for your viewing needs.
This account name for Bungie: I wish I can change. -_-
I gotta remember to switch accounts for different posts or I'll be screwed.
