My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

You can not blame anyone for being hyped for Firefight. I have wanted something like Firefight the very first time I played Halo: Combat Evolved back in 5th grade. Next week I start college, and Firefight is finally coming out. I'm probably more hyped for this game than I was for Halo 3.
This is probably due to the fact that I didn't even have Xbox LIVE right when Halo 3 came out. But now... I can play Firefight alongside my friends.
As for the campaign, I'm beyond hyped for that too. Bungie.net tracks total kills for both campaign and Firefight modes. I love killing Covies, which is more than obvious by taking one glance at my campaign kills.
Not to mention, this is going to make the Halo storyline and Universe even more in-depth than it already is. I'm never opposed to that. It has a fantastic storyline.
Basically... I'm hyped for everything the game has to offer, but Firefight more than anything else.
I'm not blaming anybody for wanting to play a new and entertaining part of the game. Like I said, I know that I am going to be playing Firefight an insanely large amount once ODST comes out, but first I am going to at least start the campaign.
I have been a Halo fanboy ever since i first saw the announcement for Halo: Combat Evolved, and I've gotten every Halo game since then the first day of their release. I have to agree with you on wanting a game mode like this for a while, but I just didn't want it to detract from the actual storyline or campaign gameplay.
I know that I am going to love every aspect of Halo 3: ODST, and that I am going to be playing it non stop for a while after I get it on the 22nd. I just wish that more people were in to the storyline like I am, and I wish that they were buying the game for that instead of an extra feature of a full blown game.
I know that not everybody is buying it for Firefight, but most of the sales that ODST racks up will be from three groups of people.
1. Those who want Firefight.
2. Those who want Halo 3 multiplayer maps.
3. Those who want to finish the Vidmaster achievements for obvious reasons.
Such a small percentage will actually want to play the campaign for the storyline.
lol I get what you mean
It Pisses me off SOOOO MUCH when i come across a 5 Star General who hasnt even completed the campaign
You should see my campaign kills and campaign history. =)
Anyway, while it is sad that most Halo players don't even know the storyline, that is how they play the game. When many people call Elites "dinos" it's usually because they don't know what they are actually called.
If you ask a random player what ODST stands for, they won't even get the O correct. Most players probably can not even name the Prophet in charge of the Covenant at the time of Halo 3.
If the word "plasma" was not in the weapons name, most players would probably call them "laser guns" or something lame like that.
It annoys me when people call the Warthog the "truck" because they don't know the real name. I call it a Volvo or a Toyota from time to time, just because I think it's funny.
Too many players neglect the storyline and campaigns in all of the games, but that is how they play.
I, myself, am a Halo storyline freak. I have all of the books (Cole Protocol included). I love learning more about the Halo-verse.
