If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

Something that's been bothering me recently is how will players select missions in ODST. Will we have to run through Mombasa in order to reach a flashback or is it as simple as picking a mission and saying "launch"?

For example, I don't want to do a VidMaster in ODST by running through New Mombasa for thirty minutes, then having to play the mission itself (especially for the achievement "Deva Vu." Iron Skull and my friends for Annual was bad. This time we're not facing Flood).

I'm hoping that you can just select a mission from a menu, but then how would roaming New Mombasa work? If we do have to play through Mombasa to do the VidMasters (this will be fun) let's hope at the very least we don't have to watch the opening cutscene over and over (that'd be tedious).

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

I am guessing that the first time you play a mission you will have to search for it in the city, once you have accepted it it will add to some sort of mission menu.

"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.

First run through will be the standard start of the game with all the levels in between. I'd say after you unlocked them, you can select each one in a mission select. And to restart as the rookies sandbox mission You just play it over again I guess.
