So for people who have firefight Is there any noticeable height difference between the characters? Because it's petty as hell, but if there is it's going to limit my character choice.
Huh. Just a warning. As soon as the game starts you don't get an objective. In order to advance and get the location for the first clue, you need to kill all the patrols in the area it seems.
Don't spend half an hour stealthing around and wondering what the hell you need to do like I did.
Oh, and all the weapons seem balanced, or appropiatly tiered in terms of ammo etc. The only exception is the Spiker, with which compensation for lack of recoil is utterly piss poor damage. And keep in mind Silenced Weapons arn't actually silenced. Enermies know where you are from the first shot.

How can people be irritated by the lack of Master Chief? It's called ODST. Folks may as well get irritated that Spider-man 2 didn't have enough Iron Man. I like the MC character well enough, but I also enjoy the Halo fiction. The MC is basically a one-man slaughterhouse on legs so there isn't much of a need for dialogue from him. Having squad-based setting like ODST allows for us to see the Halo universe from the eyes of a grunt who actually has relationships with people besides the top 10 VIPs in the galaxy.
Argh, I hate silenced weapons that aren't actually silenced. Don't call them "silenced" if enemies react like there's a giant glowing arrow over your head as soon as you start shooting.
I'm not gonna get around to TRU till tomorrow night around 8, hopefully they'll still have the figures in stock to give away. My friend and I played Halo 3 last night for the first time in a good while, ran through the campaign on legendary for probably the 10th time. I'm hoping ODST has that kind of re-playability.
also is that TRU action figure thing first come first serve? I probably won't get there until relatively late but I'd like to get that thing for whatever reason.

Most likely. Dunno for sure though.

I'm more astonished to find out that people live in Nebraska. I've been there and I still don't believe it.
I've driven through it and I could swear I was there for days, yet less than half a day passed in the outside world. To me and my brother, it's a curse word in the classical "call upon evil things" fashion.
man if there was even a TRU up here i'd be all over that
but it is a mini figure right? i know my local comic shop has the mcfarlene ODSTs, which are probably better

the flyer said it was a $12 value so that's one of the full size dealies right? It looked like a nice figure in the picture.

nice! now to just hope this isn't one of those things they stock 10 of so they can advertise it and then not give you one when you get there 5 minutes after opening.
It's not like we hid it on page fifty-doorknobs or something, it's on the first page! This is the usual system for information in a thread
I realize it wasn't hidden away. And, yes, it would have been simple to just scroll down on the first page. I was mostly just annoyed that he was a prick about it instead of just saying, "It's on the first page". No reason to act that way towards people who asking a simple question.
I do apologize for my ignorance, though. I just want to find some cool folks to play with and most everyone on the PA forums seems worth playing with.
I wouldn't have been so snippy if you hadn't started your questions off with flat out laziness.
"I don't feel like looking through a 90+ page thread [so someone work for me]..."
edit: had you said you're at work and constrained for time, then thats fine, I used to be in a similar situation.
UPS just dropped off my copy, about to start the campaign but feel free to send me an invite if anyone wants to play firefight.

So wait. Toys R Us is giving a Rookie action figure AND a $20 gift card? I can definetly make it to the Oakview Toys R Us on a break from work tomorrow...
Will this be available to download over Xbox Live?
ODST - Probably eventually.
The last 3 Mythic maps - so far no plans for a DLC release
I'm just interested in ODST. Not a HUGE halo fan, but I'd love to play the ODST campaign and some fire fight.
My deal is, I have credit/points on my xbox, but no money. That's why I was wondering.
I think the direct download 360 titles can only be purchased with credit cards and aren't buyable via Microsoft points.
You think wrong - you can toggle between the 2.
Wow, I had no idea Thanks
To be fair it is set up pretty stupid. I think you have to go into purchase (with real money) and then hit Y on the purchase screen to see it in points and use what you already have on your account.

Yo.
People? In my city?
It's more likely than you think.

Oh well, beats Oklahoma.

They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.
Godspeed, Ironsides.

Eventually as in a couple of years... Halo 3 isn't downloadable yet.

I thought Bungie squashed that rumor
Also, has anything been revealed about that ODST avatar suit we saw pics of a couple months back?

The podcast said something like "they usually reserve that tech for platinum games but you might see ODST on there later on"

Also my signature change is almost completely because my last gamer card cut off the "e" at the end of Harlequinade.
Playing it solo is actually quite fun. The mobs are aggressive enough to keep you on your toes, unlike GoW.

I'm guessing look for it later on in the day on the 22nd, any time this week really
