We mouth the vilest sacrament
And adhere to these tacit skirmishes
All for one day ideal and saffron-drenched
We ate each other's hearts out of serving dishes

Bucks hair is too perfect! i demand a patch that messes it up. NOW!

Wait let me get this straight, any negative feedback to odst gets shoveled into one little thread when this is the odst forum?

Isn't that the whole point of the ODST forum, you know to provide feedback and talk about the game, whether bad or good?

Bungie's On To Me!
More Webcam Awesomeness
And more....

I received Recon for being awesome. Like it matters anymore. Thanks ODST! :D

Framerate drops are very consistent. I think a patch is needed. Other than that, game is fine, achievements unlock fine.

We don't need multiple threads about the same problems.

"Connection has been lost"

I'm REALLY sick and tired of seeing this message.

I have the fastest connection my service provides, and it's happened to me on numerous occasions.

  • 09.24.2009 9:08 PM PDT

Thanks very much for this, most of the posts on the front page at the moment are people complaining about failing on the vidmasters...

My only complaint is that I don't think ODSTs can be stuck, this seems really weird.

Agreed. Skibur = timing win. I've seen far too many threads today from people whining about how much ODST sucks or whining about how they did all the achievements, but their precious Recon button isn't showing up.

Hopefully, this will help stop all the pointless clutter!

In all honesty, if there are enough complaints about lagging out of firefight to dedicate a quarter(1/3 really) of a thread to it, then maybe some of the complaints are legitimate. I have never had a problem with lagging until this game. I had to attempt the endure achievement 4 times. I have never seen a game lag out and still have all 4 players in the post game lobby, so I am pretty sure it is not the connection(s).

Frame rate drops? How can you tell...

Im sorry, but as a TV/Video major, I'm very intrigued by how you noticed this. If you could PM me how you caught that, it would be appreciated, because I'm interested in that.

what if it keeps happening ?
is everyone who did it is getting locked ?

  • 09.24.2009 9:10 PM PDT

I have all the Vidmasters and I still do not have the unlock recon button.

What should I do?

  • 09.24.2009 9:10 PM PDT

No I don't want to join your group/clan/cult.

Buck's hair is too perfect. I ask...no, DEMAND, that his perfect hair be availible for all Spartans and Elite in the multiplayer to wear.

So if I have a new problem or complaint I'm free to post it in the normal forum outside this thread, or should I essentially keep my mouth shut because something like this completely eliminates any point to complaints at all?

It's the same as the "only BR thread" for Halo 3. You guys are taking legitimate concerns and saying "lol don't care". Eventually the complaints about stuff like lack of matchmaking will die down, but the sheer volume of these threads says something about what people expect out of their purchases.

Yes.

Bungie are more than aware of the problems that people are having with ODST, so they don't need to see hundreds of threads about the same problem.

ODST is still on opening week, wait for Bungie.net's ODST stats to update. The button will appear on your "Road To Recon" Achievement section on your Service Record.
