I have a feeling that ODST was an experiment for a new game play design and I think Reach is going to have some influence from it. What I mean is the more open world aspect of ODST, and Im sure Reach is going to have a new engine to power this experiment. I have a feeling the combat will literally be on a much grander scale. Also I like the darker tone so far in what Ive seen in the ODST previews, it seams like a sadder story and more human on a personal level. Im not saying they should use a different color pallet rather make the story more serious, like what ODST appears to be, and with a new engine it should help make the game look less cartoonish.

Same goes for Firefight. I think they are testing the idea in preperation for Reach. Or at least i hope it will be in Reach.

I think they'll keep Firefight, but will most likely use a new engine. If they keep the same engine, people would complain. I hope *Some* of the aspects from the other halo games will be in reach, but who knows.

No firefight would be terrible! I hope they put a firefight mode in, it wouldnt make sense to take a step backward and leave it out... but yeah they will probably expand on the firefight mode, make it even crazier!

I think they just made the game to hold us off until Reach.

Fixed. Halo 3: ODST is a seperate thing that is a subdivision of Halo 3 (Hence the Halo 3 in the title) Bungie has said that Reach is its own game and it's revolutionary. It's also been in production much longer.

Of course its going to be its own thing, but im talking about the open ended world which ODST experimented with i think its setting up a system that Reach will use..
