I've always wanted to know where the drop pods were located for each squadmate. If you take a look at this map, we know that there are two drop pods in sector 5, the Rookie's and Dare's. Buck's pod is in sector 6 and Dutch's pod is over in the Uplift Nature Reserve. There's also a drop pod in Sector 4 in the courtyard that's right above the "C" in Sector. It's most likely Romeo's pod because Romeo was able to get to Dare's crash site (Tayari Plaza, Sector 5) very quickly after the slipspace rupture. Also, the first time we see Mickey is in Sector 1 in the beginning of "Kizingo Boulevard" only an hour and a half after the drop. Which comes to my conclusion. There are five known pod locations. Where's the sixth?

We could get together a team and search for it.

Mickey enters the game from sector 1. His pod is in there.

Sector 1 is off limits though... how are we supposed to find it?

Hello, and gooodbye!

you could try "bumping" the area. this is where you force the area to load without all of the assets ie; doors dont load and you can get into otherwise inaccesible areas. you do this by quickly moving between areas, it can be quite random though, i have been playing ODST since it came out and have only managed it a handfull of times. for a better explanation of how to do this i would suggest looking at the "unlock the secrets of ODST" forum.

Possibly. but then we'd still be able to find it.

Bumping won't give access to new sectors.

I would assume since those pods got hit by the slipspace rupture directly, them they flew outside of the city borders.
If not farther.

Rather than Buck's squad, which changed their flight path at the last second.

I'm pretty sure the one in sector 4 is Mickey's.
Seeing as it's located not to far from where he starts out. O.o

At least, I assumed.
