In Halo 3, we can tweak settings for our custom gams, such as Health, Speed, Gravity, and so on. I think that the ability to tweak settings for Firghtfight mode in Halo 3: ODST would make everything more interesting.

When you're just sloggishly trudging through the levels, there is bound to be some stress, right? You could be yelling at some brute of how they killed youwhen you were just one away from beating a level. I'm pretty convinced that we will be able to choose the levels we had beaten till, just likeGOW2, but that wouldnt be enough. For me, at least.

First Person Shooter games are supposed to be exciting and adrenaline-filled, but also requires entertainment and fun. If we could tweak our settings, with lower bar of limits, that would make Firefight WAY much fun, with friends AND by yourself. And of course, we shouldn't be able to attain achievements from all this cheating.

If we can't have Forge in ODST, I'm sure we should have the ability to tweak settings.

Why would we want to tweak are abilities, isn't the whole point of this game to feel like ODST by jumping lower running slower and those things? Rather than "tweaking" it. Also this could all be used for an advantage to get passed waves quicker and would make it easier.

Hey Guys.

I am Founder of the group FireFight Custom Games
Another Great Group is New Mombasa Join them both :P

Maybe they could allow it but make it so you can't unlock achievements with it edited.

Also I think its way to late to add this to the game. They have finished H3: ODST and are working on Halo: Reach and the Halo: Reach Multiplayer Beta.

i agree but the game is already finished (except for a few bugs (probably)) so they coundn't add this to it and i don't think it's in the game already

Yes and no.
It would be great fun to do some things, but the whole point of firefight is to feel like every second is going to be your last.
When you take that away it becomes about as threatening as a 4 year old with a butter knife.

A butterknife always can do some damage in some ways, you know...

Once somebody told me that they were playing H:CE and they were watching an grunt for a really long time and then it turned into an elite.

i agree, i'd like to see some 300% speed increase to get out of those sticky situations and such

too bad the game is finished..

It'd be a good idea however if it's not in normal settings you can't earn achievements or be on some sort of table thing.

Dont tweak the game but have custom powerups to tweak. :D

Yes, but if the settings are changed, then the level you get up to shouldn't be recorded, it should only be for the sake of fun. If you get me.

I agree but what if u could change what kind of covanant spawn and where that whould be awsome.

Like some other guys said, it just should be for the sake of fun. No achievements, no pressure.

Recon In Halo3
Recon in Reach

I think that forge is on the 2nd disk with the multiplayer
