Subject: The ODST problem reporting and complaints thread

I know this has been said 100 times over, but lag makes playing anything 4 player impossible.

My complaint is that Brutes with Hammers will CAMP MY F*****G spawn and i lost 13 lives that way by myself.. Its really annoying. Especially on Crater. I don't think enemies should be allowed to come into the back part where we spawn. Its soooo annoying.

That happened to me on Last Platoon, it is hilarious to spawn with a crappy little pea shooter like the SMG and have to fight off a bullet sponge cheiftan.

You luky people, you, with your danged game already in your 360...


Amazon's shipping moves about as fast as a rock. I paid the price.

Anyway, i came here to just say this: For all you lag-whiners out there, just think....the heaping pile of lag in a matchmaking game? God bless no matchmaking in this game!1!


Well you must have some reject or something because i got mine the day it was released. From Amazon.

serious thread


Ha..ha

serious thread? No. It seems that more like a "there's no recon in my ass" thread.

Just going through the pages here, all i can see is I dont have recon, I dont have recon, i dont have recon...

Why dont you just change the title to: "I Don't Have Recon thread"

I actually posted something earlier about an animation problem which shows the lack of time put into the game. And no one noticed it.

"I don't even dare call those things magnums."

The only issues I've ever had were the achievement issues and lag issues.

The Achievement issues were with my friend and I finishing the final mission and beating the game, and we got no achievement. We did it again and got it, but not the problem. There's a glitch in there some where.

Also, the Clue achievements. They're also glitchy. We had to do the missions all over again to get Super Sleuth.

And lag. Yeah, tried playing with my friend online, lag was so terrible that it had a delay of at least 2 seconds. No joke. I would pull the trigger, gun would fire 2 seconds later.

I'm sure you'll fix all of the problems. They're no biggy.

Am I missing something, or am I the only one that thinks this is a rip off? Putting together a 4 player full match of ODST takes longer than making a match of people with bad lag. Its wrong to have to shell out $60 for a game that can't even be played 24/7 like its bigger brother can. I thought gaming with people over XBOX LIVE defeated the problem of playing by yourself.

Please try to keep discussion of common issues and complaints about ODST in this thread.
If you make a new thread about it, it may be locked.

Complaints can include:

-The lack of Matchmaking for Firefight
-Lagging out during Firefight
-Not getting an achievement
-Buck's hair is too perfect

Yesterday me and three other people went for the Crater Firefight achievement, we got 203,000 on it(3,000 pts more than what is supposed to unlock the achievement) and we didn't unlock the achievement. You can check the stats and everything.

GOD BLESS no matchmaking?! You cant even play the damn game!

  • 09.25.2009 12:41 PM PDT

I'd simply wish that I could actually play the damn game....

Seriously, if I get another disc read error, I'm goin to tear my eyes out....

when free roaming in new mombasa streets, every time i step in front of one of those big doors with the green lights and switches, my game freezes for about 3-5 seconds, but the music keeps going, then it unfreezes as if nothing happened. i don't know if this makes a difference, but i installed odst to my harddrive. other than that and some lag issues on the first day i played it while going through 4-player legendary campaign, i have think the game's perfect(but halo 3's campaign was better, excluding the cortana level).

I would have to agree with this. Because there isn't a pause to Firefight and the bad guys just come right in and kill us while we have to step away to the rest room, phonecalls, food input.

"The best of the best had to be at the bottom at some point."

what i dont get, is people complain about the games problems and bugs on its OPENING WEEK, you cant expect EVERYTHING to be fixed right away, if you think that than you people are just a bit demanding...now i havent actually played my ODST game yet, but from all the things that i hear that this game is pretty bugged, now i can see how this could be quite agrivating, but you just have to be patient and give bungie some time to fix them, not just go "oh t noes i didnt get my vidmaster achievment, bungie you're a horrible company, this game sucks, blah blah bleeeeeeh." you cant expect them to fix it RIGHT AWAY can you? they have this awsome thing called patience, you demanding people should try it sometime.

I feel like I should voice my problems with the game, if nothing else to remind Bungie of how much they fail sometimes.

-No matchmaking in firefight. I assure you that firefight will die very quickly because of this. I prefer Horde, and -blam!- Zombies anyway, As much as I hate to admit it firefight feels like a cheap knock-off rather than a competitor to those gametypes.

-Disc Read Error. I get this all the time with the game, its infuriating. I only got to play this game for 1 day and now im just trying to get it to work again. All my other games work just fine.

-$60. I know this isn't bungie's fault really, but it has to be said. The campaign was good but for me that's about all it has going for it. I already have Halo 3 so the second disk save for the maps is completely useless to me. And yes I did know this going in, however I didn't realize no MM in firefight, which is what kills it for me.

I do appreciate these "less notable" topics being shoveled into this singular thread so that more"Bungie r god" topics can be seen on the first page. I know you guys like to stroke it to your own undeserved praise

Stems to reason that any company would want good publicity compared to bad publicity on their new product.

But with so many people having had similar problems with Halo3 even many game journalists are taking notice and reporting the problems too.

I would not say this is the end for Bungie, far from it. But it is certainly a smear on their reputation that most will not soon forget, and will most likely cost them a great number of sales.
