Subject: How will iron work in firefight?

when i heard they were making ODST all i could think was "awesomeness would ensue!"

well since iron usually works by bringing you to last checkpoint or to the starting of whichever level your on that won't work in firefight cause there aren't checkpoints in co-op so what will happen when you die??

Halo=The best game series EVER!
Bungie=Bungie's so awesome I have no words

that was on my mind as well, maybe u lose 2 lives when u die?!

I'll hold the rope..... and the camera. 'Cause I'm a multitasker like that.

As agile as a cougar on a young man.

Ok, if you say so boss!

Wildcard Machinima!

I think it just makes you use one of your lives.

Maybe 1 death=2 lives lost? Or if someone dies, everyone loses a life? I don't know.

I was thinking it might take all your lives, but I doubt that will happen, because that would be to hard, and very killjoy.

I believe the Iron Skull may only be activated on the bonus rounds.... From the weekly update, that is what it kinda sounds like... they tell us exactly what it does when activated in the bonus round. Here ya go.

Since Iron is now on, one death from each member of the squad is all it takes to end your little collective fantasy voyage upon this golden but tumultuous sea of points (the bonus round)

It just hit me. You might not respawn until the next wave or round, but Iron is always on so I doubt it.

  • 08.16.2009 12:40 PM PDT

Well I guess I better put some pants on.

I feel like I'm gonna break this thing!

It may not be in the game, or you may have to restart the round if you die.

Makes sense. Sort of a "background Skull" that only activates at the bonus round.

The AR is an awesome weapon, RESPECT IT AS SUCH!!!

yes, iron is in the bonus round. it means tha you all have only one life, no matter how many you have before the bonus round

=D

I think it's only on in the bonus round. On the IGN service record screens I only saw 8 regular skulls and the 4 silver ones.

  • 08.16.2009 1:01 PM PDT

I think that the iron skull is only activated during the bonus round, and subsequently each squad member has just one life to get as many points as possible. When all have died, the game carries on.

This is my understanding, I don't know for sure.

You know those days where you wake up and you just don't want to get out of bed? those days when you drag your feet across the floor like a zombie? yeah, I'm having one of those days.

i think its if your or a squadmate dies they dont respawn until the next wave

  • 08.16.2009 1:06 PM PDT

I was thinking about how this would work aswell. Maybe you have to restart the round if your team mate dies? Similar to the Halo 3 vidmaster annual where you had to restart from the last checkpoint. Meaning restart from the last wave :P

OMG i keep telling people you share the lives. 7 lives shared by how many players you have!
maybe everyone in your team loses one life
