NANOjam Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 If 343 were to make a new ODST game I hope it would incorpotate this idea. The idea is that later in the story when you've proved youself, you are given a number of missions to complete and you get to choose which missions to undertake first. Missions can change dynamicly depending on what order you pick them. For instance You have 2 parts of a single mission. A Stealth section into Covenant Base or a Support section to defend a VIP. You pick to drop into the stealth mission first over the support mission. The stealth mission is much harder because you have to land a fair distance away and sneak in. The Brutes are getting ready to deploy to destory the support mission so during the stealth mission you have an oppertunity to make it easier on yourself in the support mission with less enemies. Once completed you make your way to the Support mission and Recover the VIP. BUT if you were to take the Support mission first, you have greater friendly support. Taking the support mission first changes the Stealth mission into a Raid because now have to clear the way for a safe extraction. Not every mission has to be like this, I just thought it would be a good change of pace and would also add to replayability. This type of dynamic mission lends itself well to the nature of the ODST being able to drop where ever they need to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I dont think any halo game linking to the past games will be made, those were bungies games, so 343 will concentrate on halo 4, 5, and 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they have plans for Halo 4,5 and 6 it would be nice to see some ODST action too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectral Jester Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Would be good if they did, I enjoyed the ODST campaign, the walking backwards and forwards through the City did get on my nerves a bit, would of been better if there were more covenant in the city.

Dean PHD Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 I really liked the city feel. I would like to see some of that in H$ since the planet looks so Tech advanced but anyways about ODST. I think they will be doing some side projects in between releasing H4 H5 and H6 every other or every third year. An ODST themed game seems to be a likely candidate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they will be doing some side projects in between releasing H4 H5 and H6 every other or every third year. An ODST themed game seems to be a likely candidate. I loved the large City of ODST and the film noir style story, and I'd like to see this expanded. My favorite story in the Halo Legends is "The Babysitter" - I'd love to explore an environment like in that story using objects in the world to your advantage. I also like the idea of being stationed on a USNC Frigate patroling the universe, waiting for the next mission from the Brass. This would open up the choice of locations to visit in the campaign aswell using the frigate as the central hub. With Halo4 being based in an unknown area of space, that leaves the ODST to deal with the remaining Covenant loyalists as well as Human Insurgents. Although it would be boring to just do random missions with no sight of an end-game, would be cool if the frigate was on the tail of a Covenant ship with intel on Forerunner experimental weaponry.

NANOjam Posted August 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 That would be fun... but your post confused me slightly. The replayability will be exceptional. Basicly, you take the Stealth Mission first, you can take out a large number of enemies by sabotaging their dropships, you then go to recover the VIP but by this time many friendly forces have been killed making it more difficult to defend. If you take the Support Mission first you have saved friendly forces and have greater defences from the incoming enemy (that would have been destoried had you landed there first.) Once that has been dealt with, you still need to enter the Covenant bace to destroy the AA gun that would harm the VIP Pick-up. Mission complete. And like I mentioned before, the ODST are perfect for this type of "drop into mission" mechanic. Also, being based on a UNSC frigate roaming the universe gathering intel, defending civilians and rebels from covenant forces while on the hunt for a covenant ship with stolen UNSC property. Sounds fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yah bono here Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 what would be cool if they just had a campaign game; no knew multiplayer, (maybe firefight) but just a HUGE campaign. like twice as long as halo 3, with a bit more variety, not necisarily choosing which mission to do first, but choosing to go cqb or hop on a turret or take sniping duty when defending a base or something. the replayabilately would be intense.

Mr Muffins 7 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 i would love to see a new ODST game, i just got really annoyed with the city at times but it was really cool at first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurt S-501 Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Maybe as a side game, but not in the trilogy. they should keep the same feel throughout the game. i would enjoy an ODST like side game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FIREN4 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 It was a good game. They need to continue some things though. Like what happened to the ODST'S when they escaped in the Phantom. Where did they go? I think it happened sometime between Halo 2 and 3. Hey, who knows maybe we'll find them on the Forerunner Planet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
call me graham Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I love ODST's so a new game with them again would make my day , even if they done it where you replay the missions ODSTs joined the Chief on but through their eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartan 120 Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I very much would like to see a new ODST game, seeing as I really liked the layout and the way that the first one switched up the quintessential halo game. Plus a lot of the ideas that have been pitched on this page seem very good, I especially like NANOjam's idea, I think that this would be a very good way to go about a new ODST game.

Ditchy Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 I agree with everything Nano says, i loved The city of mombasa. ODST Seemed to me more spec ops rather than just LEEROY JENKINS Pew Pew everything. The cutscenes were also very good and i also loved the audio logs they were fun but very very challenging with or without using the internet XD. So i agree with nano that they should consider this idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCPO Mayh3m Posted April 20, 2012 Report Share Posted April 20, 2012 ODST gave you another side of the story of the war. It would be cool to get another side of what this new series is about. So, I say yes, go for it. I liked the original ODST and would definitely play another one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elite Posted April 21, 2012 Report Share Posted April 21, 2012 Alas, another fellow Spartan who would love to embrace the ODST expierence again! I personally loved ODST's play-style; this'll obviously improve due to technology advancement. Remember all the hugely cinematic sequences in games? It'd be easy to incorporate the new specialized marine serving thee corporation the Chief is assigned to! Wrong. Kind of, the return of the SMG and the scoped pistol really changed the game for the better however, it was less interactive than other Halo games! I know Halo 1-3 was kind of "push the button" staged fights; this was fun! Good ol' days... Martin states that "anything Call of Duty can do, Halo can do better", time to have these varied, uncertain objectives. Instead of deploying into the battlefield, wouldn't leveling up to unlock better starting-weapons add finesse to what was considered as initially a "DLC Pack"? Oh wait, something that we consided to initially be a "DLC Pack" could beat CoD. Halo 4 has it's fairly new recognition for introducing a class system; first step to becoming one of the best games out there, beating all the over games at their own game! (I'm sure we'll kick CoD's imperfect ass at their own game, anyway.) Incorporating this is into a new firefight will keep firefight from looking like a try-hard 'Horde' mode; even Martin will agree that trying to beat games not personally competing with us is kind of immature. If we would still use drop pods, shouldn't we be able to control them? If we had custom loadouts, shouldn't we have a whole weight system to stop the classic "Rockets & Laser" approach? - This just fires wrecking shots itno professional map's gameplay expierences. We don't want stuff like that back. I'm sure 343 might consider planning this out; I hope it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonEYEZ Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 If another game is made other than Halo 4, 5, and 6 then it shouldn't be another O.D.S.T. game. It should follow up with the new red v.s. blue idea that they made for multiplayer. Also maybe following the Spartan Ops stories that will be released. You would play as your spartan, keep your rank, keep your armor, but have a standard color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baby Boo Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 I loved the first ODST the second I played it. I knew from the start, this will be a great game. I to want a sequel! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
