Personally, I'm getting H3: ODST for the new FireFight mode, and Recon has nothing to do with my decision-
Unfortunately, a few of my friends let me know that they are gonna get their Recon Armor as soon as possible, and hit Matchmaking on Halo 3to show off- I was kinda disappointed.
It made me wonder if the rest of the Halo community was like this, so I decided to ask.

Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing?Then whence cometh evil?Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?"

Wow. First poll with too biased answers that actually contained one I wanted to answer! Thank you!
It was no, for the campaign, by the way. <3 open world replayable.

  • 08.05.2009 10:29 PM PDT

Your wasting you're time you could be doing something else besides reading my signature...

"R3C0N 4RM0R 1S MY 0NLY R34S0N" lol that made me laugh.

But no I planned on buying this game way before they even said it had possibility's of recon.
Back when it was called... Halo 3 Recon!

I was getting it for the campaign and Firefight, Recon is a bonus :)

  • 08.05.2009 10:45 PM PDT

i never liked recon armor, i never thought it was very cool looking and if i ever got it (this might sound bad) i would only wear it to show people that i had it... so, recon would have been cool to have, but when ODST comes out, it wont be special anymore... cuz EVERYONE will have it, and for me, there will be no point in wearing it....

I am definately getting ODST for the campaign, i love following the story...
ive played since halo 1 and read 1 and "1/2" books... never finished fall of reach...

every other aspect in Halo besides campaign is a bonus, i would still pay $60 for just the campaign mode...

Have you looked at the Vidmasters? If they are legit, then those are hard as hell and not an "Easy Recon".

who said it would be easy?

MW2 is the biggest waste of money I've ever spent. Horrible game, I regret buying it.

I Want it because of the Halo1 style magnum, the new maps and the Campaign Looks Very Interesting.

You already haz teh Reconz!

No, but I'm getting it for the campaign. It's heresy someone would even suggest something else...:O

  • 08.05.2009 11:23 PM PDT

wheres the option "Recon doesn't even look good and the hype is utterly ridiculous. So much so, that i'm ashamed to be considered a Halo 3 fan sometimes." i didn't see that option on your poll, so i didn't vote.

I want campaign and firefight. If I wanted recon I would just rent the game once or twice, get all the vidmasters and then that's it. (But its never gonna happen)

  • 08.05.2009 11:29 PM PDT

get out of here stalker

Why would you spend $60 just so you can wear some virtual armor?
Oh, wait. It's recon. I forgot. :P

Why is there such a misconception about the game and recon armor...it seems all the little kiddies have really no clue what this game is about and how you actually get recon..you DO NOT get recon just from buying the game..the guy who said No i am not paying $60 for digital armor..you fail! You are not paying for armor your paying for a full game...i am so sick of all these kids just talking out their asses ..about some bull-blam!- they heard on live or at MLG forums...for any kids who are asking for recon i dont think you should be able to get it even if you unlock the achievements..

  • 08.05.2009 11:41 PM PDT

I'm getting ODST because it looks like a great game. And honestly, I doubt I will be able to get the rest of the Vidmasters. I know they won't be as easy as Halo 3's.

Your opinion doesn't count, you already have Recon.

I think that anyone who buy's this game for the Recon is a complete and total idiot.

  • 08.05.2009 11:53 PM PDT

I don't give a damn about recon armour. The only vidmasters I'll even bother to get are the ones that give gamerscore.

Are you having trouble breathing? It sure looks like you're typing out how you really talk. I might ath well put in a lithp.
I gueth you don't underthand that thith thread ith about getting the game jutht to get recon armor, and not the game itthelf. You thould really pay more attention to what people are thaying.

And Bungie hath confirmed that unlocking the vidmathterth in Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODETHT granth you recon armor. You don't get it out of the bokth, but you do get it by completing a few thimple challengeth in a video game.

No i am not..and i dont give a damn if your trying to make fun on me online..that is stupid..I know everything there is to know about the game up to this point, because unlike alot of other people that post on these forums, i take the time to read the news and watch the videos, but i am just getting very annoyed and how little all the recon obsessed kids know about the actual game. I mean seriously, there is plenty of information about the game on this very site but yet they dont even care to look for it. They just post whatever their other 12 year old buddy told them. Its non sense, and btw the next time you think your being cute by making fun of my speech, you might want to consider one thing..I just may be able to teabag you and your gf both at the same time...hahaha(sarcasm) and FYFI (for your -blam!- information) i do not have a lisp..you just made an ass out of yourself...

I think you mithunderthtand: I'm the one who hath a lithp, so I'm copying you by typing out how I would actually thay it. I am very cute, like bambi and thtuff.
And if you don't give a damn about me making fun of you online, why are you making retortth?

They kidth who only care about recon are minoritieth in the whole of the group who care about the game'th releathe. When they do come and thay "OMG RECON WILL COME ONTHE I PUT IN THE DITHC!" are uthually pointed in the right direction, which thlowly whittles away at the recon-loving populathon.
