I know exactly what you mean.  Back then, the pistol was a complete

[redsniper]

Shooting down Banshees with it, man.

I thought you guys might like to know that I spent more than 5 hours of my life on a single match of Firefight on ODST. I got to Set 4, and lasted 325 minutes.

I've saved the film in theater to look over it later.

[General Battuta]

Solo? Cool. Difficulty, map?

[Snail]

On Normal, "Chasm Ten", which is by far my favorite map.

Apparently, my tool of destruction was the AutoMag, which I got like a hundred headshots with.

[General Battuta]

I love Chasm Ten.

[Colonol Dekker]

So whats the solo replayability like then?

[General Battuta]

Decent, I love the missions more than any previous Halo levels. The overworld is fun too if you want to find all of Sadie's Story.

[Snail]

So whats the solo replayability like then?

I mainly play firefight, but the campaign is good too.

[Scotty]

I have yet to find all of the audiologs.  There are three that escape my grasp. 

Good job on the firefight game.  Farthest I go was to the last wave of Set 4 with a friend on Lost Platoon.  We didn't use choppers for any more than half of it.

[General Battuta]

You need to find two more logs, then the last one is actually on Data Hive.

[Scotty]

Wat?  There's a log on Data Hive?

[Dark Knight]

U can only get it if u find the other 29 tho. Otherwise the room its in is locked.

[Colonol Dekker]

Quick question along the lines of my previous one. . .
 
If i've read Halo reach and the others, does this game really fill in that much backstory or is it just halo 3 with different skins and an umbrella level?

[General Battuta]

ODST? No, it's absolutely worth buying. Completely new story, really enjoyably told, it's a blast.

[Aardwolf]

ODST? No, it's absolutely worth buying. Completely new story, really enjoyably told, it's a blast.

It takes place on earth during Halo 3, right?

Is it while MC is on the Ark?

[General Battuta]

It takes place while MC is still in transit to Delta Halo, during the events of Halo 2.

Or in that neighborhood. It's before the MC returns to kick off Halo 3, and before the Ark Portal is uncovered.

[Snail]

Back to the topic of Halo: Reach... My main interest is what improvements to the engine these guys are going to make.

[General Battuta]

They're apparently building a 'new engine', but it'll probably share a lot of the H3/2/1 engine, all of which were just drastic evolutions to one degree or another.

[MR_T3D]

it'll be curioius, i'll definately have to try the beta when it rolls around...
...i see classes...
