I was just wondering, for people who havent played Halo 3 before, (mad to think of, i know) how will they get the armour perms for Matchmaking?

With the perms such as EOD, EVA, Flight, Security and yes, Hayabusa, they all require things from the Halo 3 campaign.
EOD- Campaign on Legendary
EVA- Campaign on Normal
Flight- Campaign on Heroic
Security- Unless this is tied in with ODST, its X amount of Gamerscore from Halo 3
Hayabusa- Collect the skulls from the Halo 3 campaign

Will the people that are new to Halo 3s multiplayer have to buy the original Halo 3 to unlock all of the armour perms for MM?
Or will the achievements be linked into ODST's campaign with different requirements?

And one last question. Im sure the answer is yes, but it hasnt been confirmed.
Will we be able to watch our saved videos from Halo 3 on the second disc of ODST?

I guess they won't. I dont think there will be a significant number of people who will buy Halo 3: ODST that dont have the original halo 3 disc.

I know of quite a few people who are doing that. Because that way they dont have to buy the map packs. And they can get the ODST campaign and firefight.

Well you should just go buy Halo 3 for the campaign. Really its good and I play it all the time, Bungie ain't gonna give a free ticket to people who didn't play Halo 3 and probably only recently got into it for ODST.

Woah woah. Your making it sound like im one of the people without Halo 3. I was just wondering for all the people that are going to get into ODST as their first Halo game.

But Bungie do seem like the sort of game dev that caters for new people as well as the old fans. And why wouldnt they want to give a "free ticket" to people who didnt play Halo 3?
Its online armour. Not like its worth anything.

Guts for them.

No No I'm just saying it prob wont happen. Anyway alot of armor is concerned with the campaign so I think they're just going to have to borrow it from a friend if they want it that badly
