Subject: Specific, Important feature question.

In ODST, will there be an option to adjust the game's master volume from with in an in-game option menu?

The reason why I ask is that, like in Halo 3 where this feature is missing, if you are forced to play using headphones for audio, and you have to set the voice output come through the "speakers" (your headphones), it becomes very difficult to hear people's voices through all the action. With an in-game master volume control, you can turn down the game vulome and not the voice volume, allowing you to hear the voices more clearly.

Thanks

We don't know but Halo 2 didn't have this feature.. nor did Halo 3... and ODST pretty much uses menus copied from Halo 3 and other stuff so most likely there won't be any sort master volume control. Nor music volume :/ I'd love to up the volume of the music, as my friend said, the music is lost behind the combat audio.

That blows. Seems like it wouldn't be a very technically difficult feature to implement and its pretty standard on most games. Why its not included when so many gamers would like to see it is a mistery to me.
