exactley thats what i meant earlier like you could be a police officer holding off looters on reach as it's about to be glassed . and yes an odst coming down to some planet and you have to guid it into a certain position to begin the mission, to i dont know secure a city that's infested with elites or grunts ? or a marine in the heat of the battle but you know make him dye so people dont think theyre gonna mak another game based on " Jim the lonely marine".
