Reachhhhhhhh

How about in custom games, you could have the choice for it to be like spartans vs. ODST, or ODST vs. Marines. Or ODST on ODST action. It would make a lot of amazing gametype options like you can easily turn a run and gun game with spartans into a tactical war fest. Also, marines can't operate covenant weapons if I'm correct so it would also add that variable. Just throwing this out there.

I just realized how awesome wrecking the enemy team with a Focus Rifle from atop the Spire is. It's magical. It's like Concussion Rifle vs Sword/Shotgun.

sounds like a good idea kind of like how people mod in Halo PC i get it that would be awesome and you can play as them!

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

Who says you will play as marines or ODST? Also, multi-player is non-canon. OH and I'm pretty sure ODST/marines can use covenant weapons. In Halo 3: ODST do you think you can pick up covenant weaponry when you are playing as an ODST? ODST are the same as marines basically.

If you experience any of these symptoms refrain from communicating with others until the symptoms have subsided.

Did you watch the "Welcome to Firefight" video. ODST's can wield Gravity Hammers.

While ODSTs are tough, the Spartans pwn both ODSTs and Marines, so it wouldn't be too fair a fight.

Reachhhhhhhh

i thought that marines, and marines only weren't trained in the area of covenant weaponry?

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Just playing that a couple seconds ago. It was a mosh pit with UNSC and Flood vs. the Covenant and Seperatists. Fun stuff.

Um, what exactly do you mean by ODST on ODST action? :D

ODST mission?

Reachhhhhhhh

by ODST on ODST action I meant what SHOULD HAVE been included in Halo: ODST but wasn't. I mean instead of working together like in firefight, you are playing as ODST's in classic Halo multiplayer action, such as 4 v 4 team slayer with every player as an ODST.

In H3 and H2 Campaign, you can give a Marine or ODST a Covenant weapon except the Grav Hammer or Energy Sword I think. They can use ANY other weapon.
