This actually does make sence. :O

Not a stupid theory, but is disproved by the fact that the characters on the Reach banner are obviously Spartans.

If we ignore the Spartan call signs, Spartans on the Theme Picture, Spartans talking over the radio saying "We've got Spartans on the ground", then yes, maybe it might be about ODSTs. Wait, no, it's not.

Perception is everything.

I knew someone would bring this up...look...several people fought at reach, ODST's and Spartans. Just because an ODST mentioned fighting on reach, and even though we saw reach, that doesnt mean we fight as ODST's.

The characters being Spartans is in no way fact. I have never seen a spartan wear a backpack lulz. At this moment we have no facts. Im just using clues and Bungie dropped a bombshell one in the ViDoc


Okay, fine. They aren't Spartans.


I mean they are like, but whatever.

Wasn't Reach where Spartans were trained for pitys sake.

If your never sure if a post has sarcasm or not, my posts are cooked in pot of sarcasm, has sarcastic filling added to it, and then has lots of little sarcastic sprinkles put on top.

A bit of clarification from the Halo books is required here methinks.

Red Team was the one on the ground led by Fred. Blue team was John, Kelly and James and they were sent to take out an ONI prowler which had isolated itself from Reach's Docking ring AI and hadnt enacted the Cole Protocol, ergo was a target for the covenant to get the ships Nav data and find out where earth was. James was blown into space, think his thruster tanks were ruptured. And Linda died while trying to blow a hole in the dock for a pelican to get through.

As i was saying Red Team was led by Fred and consisted of the remaining spartans. Not sure of exact numbers, but if you read the Halo wiki then it should clarify things a bit more. Odds are that it will be a game about Spartans. The coincidences in the ODST Vidoc are just that im afraid.

EDIT: Not all Spartans lost their lives at Reach. The planet was only Partially glassed as there was thought to be a Forerunner artifact on Reach.

I want to see a few ODST missions in Reach but the Spartans should be the focus.

  • 07.30.2009 3:16 AM PDT

You're wrong OP.
Those are Spartans in that banner, each one accurately representing 5 different Spartans in the books. Notably, Fall Of Reach.

Bungie would not make another game based on ODSTs, that's just stupid.

I think it's possible that ODST is setting the scene for many games featuring our favourite Helljumper squad, including Reach.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I always thought that the snipaa looked like an ODST

  • 07.30.2009 4:32 AM PDT

could be true, but only time will tell...

although that shot of reach could have been a clue

Signatures are for squares.

See my thread for who is most likely the characters of Reach.

Really, ODSTS? I've never seen a 7ft'5in, ODST.

This game isn't Halo:Reach:Odst.

Halos main focus was always spartans, so it will probably stay that way for the Main games in the series.

I think you're wrong.
If you ever read the halo novels it describes the battle on reach at the end of Halo: The Fall Of Reach and continues to describe the Reach events in the third book, Halo: First Strike, so I'd say for hundred percent that the game will take us through those events from the book. If so this will be one kick azz game! And this is what we all wanted to see ever since the novels came out.

But anyway lets see and wait.

Oh! Forgot to add!

If you look at those shadowed figures they don't look like ODSTs at all. In fact they look like Spartans from halo wars! If you take a picture of those HW Spartans and paint all their textures black in Photo Shop you'll get the exact outlines (maybe just a little different for a pixel or so) I tried myself and I got 96% similarity.

VERDICT: Reach is all about Spartans.
Hey, and maybe if we're lucky we'll get to play with MC when he was still a squad leader of the Spartans. I kinda think we'll get similar gameplay to ODST meaning we get to play each character in turns. Who knows... who knows...
