Subject: Training mission Idea

I was thinking, then I had a idea(Neat how that happens right?)

Wouldn't it be cool if the Training Mission for ODST was a flashback to when the Rookie was a Marine? Before he earned his spot as a ODST.

Could be a short mini-Firefight mission ending with a Spartan group saving the day.(Not neccesarly blueteam/Master cheif.) Just some spartans.)

For any of you thinking that this wouldn't be possible with the Marines open face-plate would let you see the Rookies face. It cold be covered by the eyepeice(Halo 1 Marine. The little green square.) and a bandana being used as a dust-mask. (The mission could take place on a sandy type planet.)

I was just wondering if anyone thinks this would be cool or not. Or should I just go away?

i think i would be cool if MC came and started owning everyone and then the mission would be over with.

Datass

sounds like a good idea, but i think the spartans are a bit much. But im betting there'll still be a calibration thing like in all the halos (not counting Halo Wars)

"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."

Praise you, that was the best idea I've heard of ODST yet. I personally think it's too late to add anything though.

That sounds pretty cool to me. But I don't think we need a training mission in ODST. But nice idea.

It's not personally.

The game is being manufactured right now.

@ everyone besides the quote. Thanks for the good support.

@Jesseklol It's a flashback that has no bearing on the MAIN story to the game. I don't think the spartans truely need balancing as they are the ending to the Training mission. Although. It may seem a little odd for the entire engagement to end there. But the other ODSTs(Romeo, Dutch etc.) Could snap him out of it part-way into it.

I'm sure that Bungie has already put in a calibration part into the first level, as with all Halo games, and they will probably go over the VISR as well.

Like the idea but not the bit about the spartans
