Ok so heres a strategy,Your guy distracts a wraith,and then other guy boards it,I can already see it.

whats wrong with that? probably what will happen is guy tries to distract wraith and gets killed by phantoms.... And it those people played on normal. so stfu its going to be a great game!

THM!!!!!!!!

ok you want a strategy game? go play rainbow 6 vegas 2 on of the best strategic games. you want to take it easy and run in get one or two kills then die then repeat? play halo 3 or soon to be ODST. as far as i can tell ODST will be almost exactly like halo expect for the minor differences the game is all about having fun with a couple of mates to kill some hours.

so its not meant to be realistic. its not meant to be some crappy marine your playing halo as an ODST. go play CoD

im sure odsts can do all that bungie just havent gave them the ability in halo 2 and 3, but this is going to be a lot different,die quicker,no duels,cant run as fast or jump as high,need to be smart when picking enemies,stealth is probably going to be your new friend

  • 08.03.2009 10:58 PM PDT

dude IT'S A GAME. who cares, this isn't life or death. the fact that ur fighting aliens with laser guns makes it fictional. So who cares if u can pick up a half ton turret.

if you want a good halo game, get ODST, if you want a good strategy game get operation flashpoint dragon rising

Ok,so as I was watching I hear ODST in firefight will rip off turrets,use hammers,board wraiths,and I was just wondering,why?Is there not one game bungie that you can make for once where you actually rely on strategy,like a normal human should.Mine as well let us be spartans and elites in firefight to,thats what it sure seems like. P.S. No BR as well you put weapons in this game that shouldnt be there yet,but the one weapon that should be there and its not,well I don't know but I'd sure like answers plz.
They did make a game without turrets, hammers, and boarding.......Halo: CE. It also didn't have the BR and it still is the best Halo game to date IMO.

  • 08.03.2009 11:09 PM PDT

why are you looking at this?

all those thing are for firefight purposes only, firefight is a multiplayer mode which is not 100% true to the story.

Well I was because I always wondered what it was gonna be like fighting like a human and how they struggled through the war,right there just underated spartans,and by the way I didn't like halo 3 that much after awhile I just got bored samething and thats what this game sounds like.


if you don't like halo 3, you don't like ODST, GET OFF BUNGIE'S FORUM YOU BLAMMING IDIOT...WOW GO CHANGE YOUR DIAPER AND STOP CRYING...wow that felt good, well yes, go ahead and uh, leave the forums now...(I said what needed to be said)

  • 08.03.2009 11:17 PM PDT

TO THE OP-My God, Nerd fight. But in all seriousness, the only reason thy didn't do that in Firefight is because you wouldn't get to kill ANYTHING. Seriously, they COULD pick up turrets/jack, but if the NPCs did it wouldn't be halo, you couldn't be a one man army anymore, and that was what and IS what Halo's about, you -blam!- can't change how the game is meant to be, because not all people are like you, well gosh damn no one is(sarcasm). The only thing I agree about is the gravity hammer. Seriously, -blam!- off if you don't like Halo, if you don't that's fine but WE DO! Keep your RUDE opinions to your JACKASS self.

You sir, are missing out on some awesome new multiplayer maps :D

Plus, why does it matter how real the game is? Why don't you just play it like another cool new Halo game?

Keep It Clean

Posted by: Sgt Cortez08
Well so far from what I've seen they have done that and only died once,after that they were fine,because brutes arent smart so a lot of the time they will sit and look at you,just like halo 3.


Dude people dont want to see the character die. They want to see GAMEPLAY! Ya know that cool thing that gets people to play the game and if you watch enough videos they die ALOT and I mean ALOT from using spartan-like tactics. By the way, ODST's can rip off turrets and use them because they're REALLY strong like picking up a certian guy who's complaining about the "unrealism" of ODST and throwing them out of a window... not actually threatening anybody FYI just giving an example.

Check Out my FileShare.
I was once on Bungie Faves. (Feb.7-15)
I'd like to know why I can't see the signatures of others of myself on the forum. I have made favs once, 7777 campaign kills, and I helped bring modders down when they were at their strongest

YOU DON'T HAVE TO IF YOU DON' WANT TO!

Also this game won't have a multiplayer so most of the time you are playing with friends. And you can make up some honor rules. It really isn't a big deal.

  • 08.03.2009 11:48 PM PDT

Hey Bob, what are those things jumping across the rooftops like majestic warriors dressed as Spartans with their heads on fire?

Oh, that's just the Bungie ninjas. Mess with them and they'll bring a hammer down on your head that's so big, they have to keep it on Jupiter 'cause it won't fit on Earth.

It's a video game. We like to have fun.


It was supposed to be fun because you couldn't do all the crazy things a spartan can. Bungie totally failed on that as far as I can see from gameplay videos.

From what it seems, you're just a Spartan in an ODST's suit. I almost want to take back my pre-order.
I can almost assure you, in the demos they were NOT playing on legendary or even heroic. Probably normal or easy. Maybe even changed it so they couldn't die except on the firefight videos.

As a great man has said before "..." That is where the truth lies my friends

1) It's a game
2) you have the option not to rip it off, or weild Gravity Hammars,
3) It's for firefight only.

  • 08.03.2009 11:51 PM PDT

Its a game dude people like to have fun, if you want a challenge set it on legendary and play, and if thats not enough for some people oh well, not everyone can be pleased.

  • 08.03.2009 11:56 PM PDT

-I was here

r u retarded? that stuff is only for firefight. and its a game, we like to have fun, why would they delete the fun stuff?

  • 08.03.2009 11:57 PM PDT

god this thread just shows the extreme abundance of fanboyism at it's finest.

i agree with the OP. not a lot is changing. all the videos i've seen, all the gameplay i've seen, firefight or campaign, it's simply just not what Bungie was talking about when they first released info about the game. at first, it was all "you're not a Spartan, you will have to use stealth, strategy, etc.", but now it doesn't seem to incorporate any of that. the gameplay is still the same. sure, maybe you run with %15 less speed or jump with %20 less height or whatever, but really, it doesn't seem a lot different. it's just not that much of a change. i was expecting some stealth based campaign, but it's still show-up-with-guns-ablazing-with-no-strategy type gameplay.

but it IS a Halo 3 expansion. so, i guess i can't complain too much about the gameplay. the price on the other hand...

oh yea, you mean all the stuff that i've ALREADY BOUGHT?

the Halo 3 mutliplayer? check. got it with Halo 3.
Heroic Map pack? check.
Legendary Map pack? check. i've already paid for it.
Mythic Map pack? check. i've already paid for it.

so yea, Bungie is just throwing in everything that they possibly can into this expansion to warrant a $60 price tag. anyway, all that is for another topic...
