Subject: Where did all the ODST's go in ODST?

MJB

you do end up seeing a few pods and dead ODST's near them in various parts of the level mombassa streets

I heard about 6 pods made it to the ship before the jump, not sure about the rest, but those lone 6 probably ended up dead.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

There was a glitch in one of the ACS modules which made the other drop pods explode when the distortion of the slipspace rupture occured. Buck's squad survived because ONI supplied them with better drop pods since Dare was on the mission.

They dropped head first into hell?

Hahaha ^


it's possible, OP, that these pods were destined for Voi or old Mombasa to aid in civie defense and evacuation.
however it does seem foolish to commit only 6 ODSTs to an entire city...


almost all the ODST's in that specific wave were tasked with infiltrating the prophets ship. Dare selected Bucks squad for a special mission to recover the superintendents data, especially under the assumption that all the covies in the city were falling back the assualt carrier and that they would only have to deal with a few stranglers.

Well, they got screwed over.

It would of been nice to of seen more ODSTs rather than Marines throughout a lot of the Missions.

And the Slipspace portal said "Om Nom Nom"

The End.


lol, but seriously its silly that only bucks whole squad survived while every other ODST got sucked into the Portal

You forget that Dare altered their trajectories before Regret went portal.
That could be the answer.

Presumably pods knocked off course resulted in alot of casulaties. However, I doubt every ODST bar Buck's squad conveniently died. Any survivors would have regrouped with other UNSC forces and continued fighting.

I like the Mk V armor.

They either hit the ship and fought until death, hit the ship and didn't penetrate or only few did, or didn't hit at all and gt sucked up.

Only Dare's/Buck's squad went away from the carrier. Everyone else went to attack the carrier.

I'm gonna go with: their pod systems were fried, they had no safety features left, they crashed and were incapacitated/dead.

The ODSTs in their drop pods used their armour abilities. They all had hologram so it looked like there were more ODSTs than there actually was.

I blame myself, not Stosh.

Oh I was always wondering what happened to them. I was hoping some would survive and you would find them throughout the city.

in the hub world you are able to find about a half dozen crashed drop pods in different areas, and at this point (6 hours after drop) all the rookie would find is empty crashed pods and dead bodies of ODST and marine personal, anyone who would have survived the drop would have linked up with marines on the ground and either evacuated ASAFP or moved the fight to another location, like maybe pulling back the majority of forces to the mainland in old mombassa.

Only your squad is found in the entire game...
I have stumbled upon maybe five or six different drop pods throughout the city, that have an SMG and a pistol next to them.

My guess is that those are the other drop pods.

They often do such.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

That's what I was thinking, if the majority of the pods were on target they would have been destroyed going through slipspace, Bucks squad were the only ones that changed course as far as we know.

In case most of you forgot ,you woke up around 18 hours late for the main battle.

I am guessing many of them evacuated after the spave elevator fell.

Many pods could have landed in old Mombasa...and others into water and some could have been sucked into the portal and died.
