Haven't read a weekly update from Bungie in a year or so...but that was terrible.
It addressed none of the issues and concerns people have had in the first few days of the game's release.
Hopefully they address them later.

I was actually upset that Sadie's father died like that. And the fact that you see his body when you get the final audio log just added to the feeling. Overall I liked the Audio log's story, It really helped me see what New Mombassa was like as the covenant were attacking.

his body doesn't move when you punch it.

Is that you urkles?
It was amusing, but yeah I'd like to see the issues at least mentioned. Generally they don't talk about them unless they have an update to provide. Here's hoping.AHappyPanda said:
Checking the b.net stats, ODST is now at: Players (All Time): 1,501,441
After the ~1.1m players on launch day, it's been picking up another 100k per day. Which would look even more impressive were it not next to Halo 3's 15m tally. :lol
Yeah, that's him. No idea who the guy on the left is, though.Neverender said:

lol, I had the exact same thing happen, just on the other side. Except at that point I pretty much had no weapons left so I was desperately trying to do plasma pistol them from behind. :lolLouis Wu said:

I'm guessing it's the serious lag issues in FF and Campaign Co-op that many are experiencing.

Laaaag issues. For the most part it works fine, but when the whole firefight session ends after a grueling 60 minutes or so because of lag, even though we're all still online and in the lobby after the game talking to each other...something's not quite right

Achievement Unlocked: Endure.
What can I has for double Reconz, Bungie?

We could have gone further, probably indefinitely, but once the fifth set kicked in we were basically fucking around. I guess it's time to start doing Firefight on Legendary.

Cannot understand this, even though Dax said the same. I will always, always preferbig ander said:
intense close-quarters fighting to "drive the tank forward while pressing fire to win". Alpha Site was awesome. Either that or NMPDHQ is my favourite of the flashback

Panda and I have room for two more. We're looking to do Endure and Deja Vu

Awesome
I was hoping it wouldn't hold that against you. The game was teasing us with that one checkpoint. I swear it said "Co-op Checkpoint Unlocked" 3 times before it actually gave us a checkpoint there :lol Anyone up for a go at Endure around 11PM EST tonight? It's the only Vidmaster Achievement I have left.

I had that same stuff happen. I don't know what co-op checkpoint even means because it doesn't seem to do anything, it showed up a few times but it never stuck until it said Checkpoint Reached in the bottom as per usual.
Ok, I just got through with the single player and only one thing I can say. Impressive. I liked this story better than all 3 of the previous Halo games. I guess it's the band of brothers type feeling,but I want some more ODST. It's too bad more single player missions couldn't be made into DLC. I would snap that up in a second.
Great job Bungie.
Great job Bungie.
Beat it on Legendary solo today, leaving me with only the Endure and Deja Vu achievements left to get, but I can never seem to get in a game at the right time 
. Legendary solo only took me about 6 or so hours, but I had the benefit of having already gone through the game on Heroic. Overall though I agree with Shake that Legendary really isn't as bad this time around as Halo 3 was.
Max 2-player splitscreen online or offline.

So I've been steadily making my way through the single-payer campaign,
and have been thoroughly enjoying it. Yep, it's more of the same, and while on a fundamental level I enjoy the Halo gameplay formula, it is noticeably aging. But, as I said, I'm still able to get some basic-level of fun out of it, because while the formula hasn't grown or evolved at this point since Combat Evolved, it's one spit-shiningly polished formula. Bungie has pretty much perfected this style of shooter.
And of course the score is great as usual
(just finished the mission with Dutch & Micky placing the explosives in the building)

What difficulty were we playing on?
Heroic. 339 and 7, aww yeah. (2 or 3 of which were suicides, I believe)
It was a good game, filled with hilarity.

Deaths by Chieftain - 7
Deaths by Guardians - 7
See?... those chieftains aint all they're cracked up to be, just about as dangerous as a map.
Anyway... who wants to go for Déjà vu?
Edit:
Yah... pretty sure it's an issue with your controller or such. Everyone else can crouch-walk juuuuust fine.thatbox said:
Okay, so I've been out of the Halo 3 loop in terms of multiplayer for some time... but now with ODST and diving back into it, something's been bugging me.
For awhile I had the Security armor helmet and such unlocked and I was quite fond of using it, but logging back in today, I find that it's locked and I can't use it. What the hell is up with this? I really liked that helmet.
