Nah, I don't think so, not alot of UNSC prescence in New Mombasa, thus, the convienant wouldn't have a lot of heavy units in the area.

"Anyone can give up it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's the true strength."

I am 90% sure that Scarabs are sent down to destroy large masses of Marines/vehicles. I doubt they'd be in FireFight. And If a hunter's fuel rod can put you in the red zone. A scarab beam?Yeah...

I agree with you OP'er.

Which makes us in the minority apparently, it would be so awesome though. The sheer terror when one rolled up instead of some phantoms, or the elation when it blows up and you realise at least some of you are still standing.

I think it may well be an ace they've been saving.

Edit: Where Blade, link?

Reach needs to be patched. It's the truth.

Even if they were in the game, it would be almost impossible to board, considering ODSTs can't jump as high as the MC

No, it's a vehicle. It's powered by the lekgolo, but it is a vehicle. That's like saying the Chopper isn't a vehicle, or that a Warthog isn't a vehicle.

A wise man once saw a weed struggling to grow under a rock, one month later he returned to see the weed flourishing, only to put the rock back on top of the weed (dooming it), when his his advisors asked why he he simply exclaimed; "That was its fate."

Think.

what if you did not have to board them, destroy them like in halo wars

I was in 5th grade. I popped in the Halo CE disc into the massive, clunky first generation Microsoft Xbox, and wrapped my small hands around the controller that was almost too big for me. Little did I know what I was getting into.

10+ years later, I still look up to my childhood hero, Master Chief, while everyone talks about He Man and Spongebob haha

firefight never ends how can it be a final boss?

OZZI OZZI OZZI.... OI OI OI!!!!

I think it could be possible. There was a scarab in halo 2 on Earth, why not in ODST?

  • 08.08.2009 2:49 PM PDT

Vancouver BC, Canada.

Some of the maps don't have enough space for a Scarab to show up. Alpha Site is all indoors, so it wouldn't work.

It would be cool, though.

I dont think they will be. I think it would be cool and crazy but I really doubt it.

Just remember in Halo 2, there was a Scarab in New Mombasa. There will be Scarabs in case of a huge retaliation, also there would be left over UNSC personnel trying to evacuate civillians then had to help fight, remember there would be a lot of cases of soldiers going AWOL as well, let me paint you a picture.

SCARAB WITH LOTS OF BRUTES, GRUNTS, AD BIG- ASS WEAPONS= A lot of scare marines.
or
SCARAB- marine= marine go bye, bye. Lol.
But there would be, they would have kept a few in case of a retalliation, as stated above. Or the fact that there might be a larger force, just remember this was a huge loss for the UNSC, this was a very important place for them. So there may be a large force. Or something of that matter. MAybe in Firefight mode there might be occasionally, every now and again but there would be more weapons and not many enemies. But I doudbt it though, maybe in campaighn and a slight chance on firefight.



But still there is no chance that a squad of ODST's could go lets kick ass like M4st3r Ch33F and go R0F1 Copt3r on th3r asses. They are not that biogenetically engineered, maybe a neural implant. That's it. ODST has not got a scarab, it would be possible but only if you had many marines too, every halo 3 level with a scarab had an awesome amount of marines.
