Subject: Halo ODST sucks!

We gotta take in the facts ODST was a new adventure for bungie. Many things were added that had never been seen in a Halo game before. Also this thread is a waste those who liked ODST should not have to listen to complaints from a person who obviously just likes to start crap with others. He can have his opinion but I say forget him it may be a short game compared to others but I like it nonetheless.

Join The Reach Asset a group I am very proud to be a leader of.

You just haven't tried to get the full experience of the game. I mean after a while it has gotten boring, but now I have found out crazy glitches and easter eggs making it more FUN.

You guys care too much.

Most of these hate-topics are created by trolls, the rest are created by people who just don't know a good thing when they've got it.

ODST is a better game than you deserve.



this game is bad

Mainly,the only reason people bought the game was probably for the reach multiplayer, then again there probably is some advantages with gamebattles or MLG.

You guys lost a customer tonight. I won't buy another one of your titles. I am extremely disappointed by this game.

Well, have fun not buying Halo: Reach.

"In the deep expanse of space exists a lost AI that resembles a certain bird, a Hawk, the last surviving part of the "Crimson Sky" frigate."
Thats me! Well sort of. Anyway have a rather... interesting life, playing games, drawing, playing games and surviving, I saddly play Warhammer/ warhammer40k as well as Halo, random assortments of games and Minecraft. Would like a job revolving around a games developer workplace with a good crowd, such as Bungie.

This shouldn`t have attracted this much attention.

Halo: ODST was going to be an add on to Halo 3 but it just became too big for an add on. Odst gave us a look at Firefight... which was awesome.

I admit i wasnt too fond of the campaign, but all the firefight, the graphics, the new maps, be grateful for all those. Itz epic.

  • 03.11.2010 11:38 AM PDT

Xbox player, not just for fun. Halo Fan!!!

mmmmmmm!!! however, halo 3 odst is a really emotional game, because of the story, means that halo (deeper) is not only a shooting game!!! i think that's not an usual way for games!

you don't like...! good, but don't bother people for that!-.-

Just bought my pre-ordered copy of ODST tonight. Picked it up at 12:22 am and quickly drove it home to play. Already had friends lined up to do 4 player co-op. $60.00 for 3 new multiplayer maps that will be free in another 2 months, and a 5 hour campaign... That doesn't sound good I thought, but then this is Halo and we have all of the previous titles and loved each one. That list includes Halo Wars... Therefore I thought that this one has to be good. Long story short, the 4 of us all agreed that this is a terrible game which is chock full of shortcuts and unpolished hogwash. I plan to take my copy back to the store when it opens for my money back! Bungie - This is not worth $60.00 - not even close. This is a crappy game and that is coming from a Halo-fanboy. You guys lost a customer tonight. I won't buy another one of your titles. I am extremely disappointed by this game.

a loyal halo fan would usually enjoy this, but you should be smart enough or at least vigilant enough to know that the short story, and the re released multiplayer was already told, basically, it was intended to be an expansion, but was released as a "full game" (I blame Microsoft), so you really shouldn't have expected it to be a full game

I think it is a good game, especially the stealth oppurtunities, but the campaing was way to obvies and short. overall i was disapointed.

Thanks man. I really appreciate your comments. I wonder how many of these idiots are still playing that crap game?
Posted by: Alpha Dog 55
You Rock! I read all of your post. I totally agree with you, I too feel cheated and ripped off. I too am a halo fan and just because a game has the title "Halo" in it doesn't mean its sold gold. You are making a difference, keep up the good work! I hope Bungie looks at this thread and takes this in consideration before releasing future titles. Don't worry I got your back, add me to your friend's list and I'll teabag all these kids with you online! Lol! Everyone take off your ODST goggles. It does suck! It's okay to admit it. This way Bungie will learn from it and not make the same mistake.

I find it of a shameful humor that people involve themselves to negative threads like this. Think about it, this is the number one thread in the Halo 3 ODST forum after about three months, while all around us there are brand new, "positive" shall I say, threads about Halo 3 ODST being born all around us. But about the game, if you don't like it, then trade it in, or simply get over it, and I mean that in the most sincere manner as possible.

Thank you.

You realize that you "involved" yourself too. Don't you?

Exactly 2 months on and I still don't see any way other than ODST that you can get Heretic, Longshore or Citadel.
ODST is a good game, people only complain because Microsoft made the price higher. Ignore the money and focus on the game, then tell me what you think.

Hmmmm... interesting... when you put it like that, Yep still sucks! How many of you fan-boys are still playing this lame title?

  • 03.11.2010 9:00 PM PDT

Would you like me to take my right foot and place it on the left side of your face? I don't care if you don't give a toss. This post wasn't for you. This post was to save people money and to tell Bungie about this disgraceful title. If you don't like it, then go drink some tea and play with your dolls.

Would you like some tissues???

Seriously who cares if you didn't like the game? I know I don't give a toss. I come here every day and see about ten threads saying how terrible Halo ODST is. I am sick of it.

If you don't like the game return it for arefund and go away. NOONE cares to hear that YOU didn't like the game. MAny other people really enjoy ODST.

Bungie moderators please ban people who cry like this and make it a good ban so they will stop it. It is getting out of hand now.

My response.

A good developer listens to their fanbase, and I am seriously begining to doubt that Bungie actually does. So you like ODST and that is fine, but others have good arguments to back up why they dislike the game. Speaking as a gamer of over 20 years, I honestly see that the game was nothing more than a glorified expansion that was overpriced and to prove this I will quote Joseph Staten from a December,2008 interview with Game Informer.

"[We] do not view this as a $60 title, and not in any bad way. It's a great value pack thing that we want to do. We're going to make it worth a lot - we just don't want to charge a lot for it."

Really? Then why in the hell did Bungie charge full price? Easy answer really. They knew that we as gamers would expect something great and they charged full price because they knew we would pay it.

Simply put Bungie milked us and the series for more cash to hold us over until Reach is released.


BINGO!!!! This man is a winner!

I agree. Epically low innovation. The only new things in ODST are three new maps, you could say that released as a pack they are worth 10 dollars, but that is just microsoft forcing people into a corner, without spending that ten dollars you are forced out of all of the good playlists. It's ridiculous that they forced people into the map packs and now ODST making Halo 3 which you purchased for 60 dollars worthless without dropping 10 dollars every few months (not to mention the xbox live subscription, in which you pay microsoft who, shockingly, provides no real service) and squeezing the money out of you. In reality there is no way in hell that the original mythic pack was worth 10 bucks, orbital was OK, sandtrap was good, and assembly sucked ass.

Firefight is a horde mode, it's been done before. They were cheap and just recycled areas of the campaign; which incidentally, not being designed for horde mode, have all sorts of easy exploits. They were even too lazy to make matchmaking. So now when I want to play firefight I have to go online and troll -blam!- forums for "friends" who I don't know and who half of the time are horrible at halo, when there are enough
online to play with that is.

The campaign's story is just flat out LAME. it's shorter than any other before it, the story is so much less interesting and developed than any halo before it. And there is ONE new enemy, to compensate for that they excluded one of the most interesting enemies from the halo franchise. BACKTRACKING.

There is one "new weapon"... a pistol, and don't say SMG, it's just silenced.
The whole game is run on a OLD ENGINE, without graphical improvements, the faces of the characters are just shockingly ugly, and everything else is just tired from Halo 3.
They bundled remnants from an old game and made some generic maps. They deserve no credit for giving me something I already have, by giving me something that they had to put NO new work into; And as I said before they are trying to use it to force me into buying the game by closing playlists to those who don't.

The reach beta is a DEMO, A.K.A. AN AD, and we don't even know if it will be any good at all, nor how long we will have access to it.

The fact that is was made in a year doesn't defend it, if they made it in a year and it was crap it means that they should have put more time into making it. They made an error in publishing it after a year.

There is no way that you are telling me that 3 maps that are just repackaged old maps from halo 2 with 0 effort put in, a recycled unoriginal, game type that doesn't even use new environments, a short campaign with a boring storyline and a single, new, exceedingly lame enemy, all running on an old engine, all rushed into a years development is worth $30 let alone $60. It doesn't matter that microsoft priced it, it's still crap, if you would like to transfer that anger far be it from me to prevent you. Maybe it could have made a B grade DLC pack.


Bungie is falling downhill FAST. I used to practically warship them. I've been on the forums since before halo 2. And now they are ruining all of that for me. I think Bungie betrayed us all with this crap. And all of the fanboys who bash complaints obviously lack any objectivity, believe me when I say I was a bigger fanboy than any of you.

And that people say that we shouldn't post complaints here are just bizarre. Bungie cheated us out of our money, and if you want to say it was Microsoft's fault this is where we can post complaints.

Edit: Oh, and I forgot, the new maps are just -blam!- unoriginal remakes of something bungie already did and is just repackaging.


I agree with a lot of what you are saying. However, the problem here is not Bungie, its Microsoft. They control everything Halo. You should not be bashing bungie for putting out a game add-on. People are screaming for more halo and saying 3 years is too long of a wait. Now they made one as a side project and people are complaining because its not ridiculous like the other games. Maybe thats because they are just doing a game add-on for Halo 3 and its not their main project. They said that it would not be full price because it is not a full game. Microsoft is the one in charge of pricing, not bungie. Bungie and microsoft have not seen eye to eye in regards to a lot of decisions pertaining to halo. This is just another example of it. If anyone actually researched what they were getting with odst they would have realized that it is not the traditional halo experience and everything was turned down a notch for this game. I feel like by pricing this so high and making it seem like one of bungies 'new games' microsoft will lose a lot of people for halo reach, even though that is the game that everyone should be looking forward too.


Really funny to me how you guys keep making excuses for Bungie as if you were defending your sister's honor. Why not let Bungie speak for themselves? Why hasn't Bungie released anything for putting this crap out? I personally would like an apology. For all of you Bungie-Kool-Aid drinkers that say, look at all the time they put into the game... You all live at home so I'll use an analogy that you may understand. If your mother roasted the Thanksgiving turkey for 5 days until it ended up looking like shoe leather. Would you eat it and say how good it was because she spent such a long time making it? Hardly. What we are talking about here boys, is quality. Which Halo ODST is sorely lacking in.

I can't believe this terrible 6 month old topic is still up here. Please get over it. The game was released half a year ago.
