On the blood of our fathers, on the blood of our sons.

I've notice in allot of these offcam footage of recent Firefight people have not understood you no longer have that nifty Shield nor can you jump off of high place like it was nothing. On more then 1 occasion Ive seen people just hop off tall spot and they never realize they took damage form it. I also see allot people Like to charge in solo. Anyone else noticing this?

Give them a break. It's their first time playing the game. It's not like they know everything

Yeah, I've noticed. They could be playing on the easier difficulties (Easy and Normal).

But it still basic knowlage I can understand people that never herd of it but most off these offcam ive seen been from people who known of ODST and know there no sheild. Yet they still play as such. I mean It hard for me to understand people can understand basic differences. and hell you just have to had played halo 1 as well to understand this game.

But I'm saying. Most people don't even know the story of Halo and just play the game for fun. It's not like they did hardcore research before they played the game.

You call hard Research notice that you no longer have a oversheild.. Even looking at the game there a Life bar.. So sorry that excuse doesn't fly.

It will take getting used to, and even if they know about it it's a whole different thing when playing and fighting the play-style you're used to. And hey, whatever works, right?

And btw, please work on your spelling and grammar. No offense, it's just kind of annoying/hard to understand

Irony: Insulting some one grammar then forgetting the period at the end of the statement.
Result: Your not prefect ether.

I don't think you're going to have to change you gameplay much up in firefight, only in heroic and up in campaign. The only difference I can see for firefight is more so being conscience of your health and therefore being a tiny bit more reserved.

Hmm... I wonder. Do health packs respawn and come back or?

Meh, I don't like periods at the end of messages. And I wasn't even being a dick... and you know you were writing bad, come on

EDIT: e.g. "But it still basic knowlage I can understand people that never herd of it but most off these offcam ive seen been from people who known of ODST and know there no sheild." wtf is this?

Ever think it could be a personal problem that you're unaware of or do you like to assume people type bad case they think it "L33t". And yes you were being a dick if you didn't want to act like you were better you wouldn't have commented.

I don't think any of us are prefect but atleast I can understand the simple forgetting of a period. The spelling throws me off big time because I'm dyslexic. I'm sure none of you care, but I might as well flame this kid for being mean and bad at the same time :).

Well a lot of these people have been playing Halo 3 for a long time now and I doubt that they would be allowed a go longer than 30 minutes. It's just instincts to charge or try jump to a high vantage point. I'm sure if they played the campaign they would get eased into the fact they are not as strong. I really doubt you, or anyone would immediately pick up the new gameplay.

Perhaps, maybe, just maybe, they're playing quick film-throughs in order to show you how it works?

... What? Are you asking me if I ever thought that your bad grammar was your personal problem? Yes, I'm sure it is. You should work on that (what else did you think I was saying). If you think typin this is 1337 then you moron. And no, I was definitely not being a dick. This is me being dickish. I was forcefully telling you that you should stop using bad grammar (I guess you thought it was cool) so that you'd be more inclined to do so. And look! It worked (sort of)! And no, I know I'm just a worthless -blam!- like everyone else, much worse than others, so no, I wasn't being arrogant and trying to enlighten my own self-esteem. I even said I didn't mean any offense by the comment! Just so you know, feel free to try and rebut to "act like you're better", however I won't reply back, seeing as how I wouldn't want to clutter your thread with this frivolous banter *PERIOD*.

EDIT: double irony: insulting someone's grammar for insulting theirs when in their insult (resembling this very same) said "insulting some one grammar"

I'd do the same thing if I got to play it at one of these events. Got to test the boundaries that you can use, as far as the stamina/health system goes.
