Halo 3: ODST

newhero

If you have ever wondered what the ODSTs did in Halo 3 or if you just want to play as one, then this is the game for you. This is not just a downloadable addition to Halo 3 but rather a stand alone disc. The game features 4 player co-op, new weapons, and a new multiplayer gametype called Firefight. Firefight is very similar to Horde in Gears of War 2.

The ODSTs for some reason have better weapons that the Spartans have never used in the games. One example is the silenced SMG. Also the ODSTs can take advantage of a low light visor that also helps you identify important items.

With the release of Halo 3: ODST, Recon armor is now a possibility for all players. You simply must complete the achievements necessary. Bungie must have been tired of the nonstop emails and requests for Recon from gamers.

Another bonus that is included in this game is 3 new multiplayer maps. One of them is a remake of Midship which was very popular in Halo 2. Multiplayer is going to be the same as Halo 3 multiplayer where you play as a spartan. I assume that both games will play online together in Halo 3.

Halo: Reach was recently announced and if you buy Halo 3: ODST, then you are automatically in the beta for Halo: Reach. This is much like what they did for Halo 3 beta which caused Crackdown to sell tons and tons more copies than it should have.

If you plan on getting Halo 3: ODST then pre-order! All pre-orders can use Sgt. Johnson in the Firefight gametype.

For more information check out the official site.

Halo Wars if officially complete and is being manufactured currently.  This means a demo will be available February 5th.  The demo includes the first two campaign missions as well as one multiplayer map but it looks like it will only be against A.I. in the demo.  Also there is a video documentary.

Bungie Update 12.7.07

Bungie’s newest update talks about the playlist updates, and the DLC maps.

December 11 Update

The December 11 playlist update is well into testing. This playlist is going to include a playlist specifically for the new Heroic DLC maps (so that early adopters can get their fix in), as well as incorporating those maps into the general playlists. In addition, we’re reasonably sure that variety updates to almost all of the playlists will be included. This includes some long requested BR Start variants, wider map selection in the Ranked playlists, and a couple of map variants that we’re going to try in BTB to start with. We’re a little hamstrung on this first update because the studio resources are giving priority to finishing and testing the Heroic DLC maps, but we do have more in mind for December. Hence…

December 18 Update

An extra week buys us some extra testing time. The December 18 update will include the Team Hardcore playlist. I will post some specifics about the composition of this playlist by the end of the week–we’re still playtesting. What I can be pretty sure about is that we’re trying to stay true to Halo 2’s THC playlist, which means nothing crazy, but a solid variety. I fully expect this playlist will be a fixture of our playlists from here on out, so it will refine and improve over time too. In addition, the current plan includes an overhaul for Team Objective. This playlist will henceforth be focused on CTF (both One Flag and Multi Flag variants, as has been frequently requested) and Assault (One Bomb, Multi Bomb, and Neutral Bomb) variants. VIP is out, until we have some time to bang on it and get something we’re happy with.
