Considering that ODST is open-world, you have to wonder how Missions will play out (you know, from the campaign menu). I think I know how this will work out.
You know how there's the dropping scene, with the first cutscene? That might be the first Mission. Just the opening. Now, after that, I believe the Beacons you find will be used as Supply points - similar to how they were used in Crackdown, these will be your Missions. Your progress is saved throughout the campaign, and when you choose a Mission, unlike in Halo 3, you're at the same time no matter what mission you choose, you're just picking where you spawn.
Now, think about Rally Points. I believe these will be Flashbacks. For example, Mission 2 would be when you jump out of your pod, Dutch's flashback will be a Rally Point.
