Ok, anyone who has read Halo: The fall of reach, will know how badd ass ODST's are.

Quote:

His experiment was cut short. Four men entered the gym. They were out of uniform, wearing only shorts
and boots. Their heads were cleanly shaven. They were all heavily muscled, lean, and fit. The largest of
the four was taller than John. Scars covered one side of his face.
John could tell they were Special Forces—Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. The ODSTs had the traditional
tattoos burned onto their arms: DROP JET JUMPERS and FEET FIRST INTO HELL.
“Helljumpers”—the infamous 105th. John had overheard mess hall chatter about them. They had a
reputation for success . . . and for brutality, even against fellow soldiers.



Sure, Jhon kills like 2 of them and seriously injures the other two, but the point is they are made out to be real bad-ass. Now on Delta Halo, They look absolutely wicked, but theyre voices dont sound all tough and bad ass, they sound like the damn comedians that play the rest of the marines. I want to be more muscualr, skillfull, and generally more bad ass, what do u guys think?

Wakka Wakka Wump!
No I freaking told you to cut the hose off, if i told to pull it off then i would have said pull it off. Now you broke the AC you dumb ass.
Me to my mother.

i would love them to stay alive a lil longer then marines as they have all that armour on

Yeah, they really don't sound or act like they should. But I guess that's because if bungie made them too bad ass in game, then it would take away from MC's Bad assness.

Sergeant Stacker's voice (the gruff southern accent) was the only one that fit the ODST's. Everyone else's voices were suited for the regular UNSC Marines. I'm sure Bungie will see the light and make different voices for the ODST's in Halo 3, if there are any.

Nothing personal...

I agree. They're pretty much the same as the rest of the Marines right?

Um, no. They're like the elite veterans of the fighting force. In the books, they are extremely tough and even MC identifies them(Locklear at least) as being pretty much the same as him and the spartans minus the armor and special treatments.

I was just trying to get a rise out of you. I read the books, they were good, and I could care less what Bungie puts in their games as long it is good.

Anyway i dont even like ODST, they look cool but looks arent everything, ever play cairo you see like 10 dead ODST's must not be that good

ps-the games dont go with the books


Put your feet up and have a cup of tea while i point some things out about the ODST. In answer the bodies of marines found in Cairo Station is yeah, but the ODST don't simply run away from a fight like Marines would, they die fighting. Plus Sergeant Johnson is probably the only marine of worth apart from maybe...actually just Sergeant Johnson, at least in the game. and i agree to the others, where the "eliteness" of the the Helljumpers. they hit the floor and they drop just as easily. they have no tacticle presence and their armed with petty little smg's that, when pitted against elites, are about as useful as a pea-shooter. There run around screeming like ther're going to get raped by a bear...or some other wild animal. plus in halo 3 i would like to see them using the terrain to their advantage rather than just following "you".

If anyone ever read Halo: The Flood they should know that when Lt McKay and all the other ODST troops dropped to the ground and took control of that litte piece of land, they withstood wave after wave of non-stop attacking. The enemy had vehicles and and alot more men as well...well you can't really tell if their men can you...anyway when the ODST held the fort, at least thats what i think they called it, they lost men but not many at the start...and thats when the big attack happened. 500 vs 1500+. The odd were agaist them but they still kicked some serious ass before getting completely destroyed when MCKay nose dived a space craft and killed everyone on it, thats what i call bad ass...


...thats the -blam!-ing out the way, lets now talk about how kick ass the ODST are.

Didn't the Covies have like, a hudnred ghosts and they took them all out with rocket launchers? That part was kick ass. ODSTs rock, but I have a single Marine on Outskirts that I'm friedns with. I named him Jeff, or Jeffy. He's the marine you get when the Warthog comes up after the Phantom leaves. He's the one of the gun. I keep him alive throughout the entire game.

Then there's Peter, the side-seat dude. I don't like him that much. He steals my 'hog every once in a while. -blam!- commie. I kill him off when I'm mad.

I'm impartial. Have you ever tried to keep all the prisoners alive on Gravemind. Trust me it pays. If you arm them all with carbines and give just one a beam rifle, they kick some serious ass
