Subject: Firefight Characters or Custom Character?

But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.

Ok, so there has been some chat about whether you pick a character from the ODSTs campaign, or you create your own. I'm pretty sure i heard something about you create your own character with whatever colour stripe, helmet shape, and/or helmetless. From the first picture In This Link, if you scroll down to the picture called ''The Load Out", it shows a great example of the firefight lobby. You can see different helmets, coloured stripes and emblems (i know you can customize emblems).

You can take the firefight characters and pimp their colors out, we don't know if you can change actual body pieces (We know you can change backpacks), but actual armor pieces are not confirmed yet. Helmets can be removed though.

Yea, anyway thanks for that post. It's just that i was hearing from the E3 Demo thing that Joe Staten was saying ''This guys playing as Dutch'' and etc. And then in the Drop Into Firefight update, it said you customize your character.

My troll sense is tingling.

You choose a character you've unlocked, customize armor, helmet (or remove it), add colors and emblems.

Is it just me or does Johnson look like he has a bandanna in that first pic =P

And backpacks? I don't know what to think till I see one.
