Just bought my pre-ordered copy of ODST tonight. Picked it up at 12:22 am and quickly drove it home to play. Already had friends lined up to do 4 player co-op. $60.00 for 3 new multiplayer maps that will be free in another 2 months, and a 5 hour campaign... That doesn't sound good I thought, but then this is Halo and we have all of the previous titles and loved each one. That list includes Halo Wars... Therefore I thought that this one has to be good. Long story short, the 4 of us all agreed that this is a terrible game which is chock full of shortcuts and unpolished hogwash. I plan to take my copy back to the store when it opens for my money back! Bungie - This is not worth $60.00 - not even close. This is a crappy game and that is coming from a Halo-fanboy. You guys lost a customer tonight. I won't buy another one of your titles. I am extremely disappointed by this game.

Most of these hate-topics are created by trolls, the rest are created by people who just don't know a good thing when they've got it. ODST is a better game than you deserve.

Message to everyone in this thread. The op is simply having a cry over the fact that he really sucks at the game (and all games too probably). I had a blast with the campaign and the only bad part was the warthog run at the end (quite frustrating on legendary) but other then that it was very intense.
-
Yesterday i completed the game. Today i will complete it again and again and again and so on.
-
Firefight has no Matchmaking which i think is an absolute joke i feel so ripped off
-
Your lucky my ODST copy will cost $100 and plus it's an expansion pack so i have heard.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Xolu Shortcuts are only there if you take them, its your choice, your game, noone is racing you too the finish. And where is the unpolishedness in ODST?[/quote] it is poor graphically! very ps2 apart from the cut scenes but you dont play them! personal opinion very dissapointed and as for the fanboys who won,t have a word against bungie people have the right not to lick bungies arse if you chose to do so don,t blame them for you haveing ²²²² all over your face

No - I couldn't care less. Bungie could set some of you on fire and make you pay for water and you guys would still love them. As I said before I am a loyal fan. I have Halo 1, and 2, Halo 3 (I'm on my 3rd disc), Halo Wars, and now Halo ODST. However this game has spoiled my opinion of Bungie. I never had an opinion of you scrubs. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] imppa [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mesarm [quote]Dark - I'm not sure if you noticed this whilst speeding as fast you could through the game just so you could -blam!- about it but when you play as the Rookie, its... wait for it, this may come as a shock to you... NIGHT TIME. The last time I checked, it was dark. Also, you are in a City with not a lot of power left after the Covenant attack, of course it will be dark. Its not like all the street lamps will still be on after a good bombing. Short Campaign - Its 5 hours MINIMUM if you can't be arsed to take everything in, look for things, explore and generally not doing a speed run. ODST dying too easy - Again, another shock for you, brace yourself, you may need some ice cream after this, you are NOT Master Chief, you are not a 7ft tall, superhuman killing machine of doom, you are a human being. If you are dying every 4 seconds, I suggest taking Halo ODST back and getting Hannah Montana: The Movie: The Game. AI: I think you'll find no AI is perfect, in every game the AI will do stupid things. The AI is not as bad as you make out however, because if it was, ODST wouldnt be getting 8.5-9+ review scores across the board. Night Vision (VISR): It highlights everything so you can quickly judge whats what in the heat of battle, red for enemy, green for good guy but more importantly, its more for points of interest, like the clues that start the day time missions. Hard to navigate menus - personal preference. Halo 3 engine- Please, when you have 14 months to make an expansion into a fully fledged game you wont have time to completely redo the engine to improve graphics, I think they have done an amazing job with an aging engine. All in all, I think you are just looking for a flame thread, its quite pathetic, really.[/quote] Agreed.[/quote] Care to counter this, TheEasy1JM? If you can't, get the -blam!- out of here.[/quote]

You and three other friends played Firefight and just complained about how bad the game was instead of playing something else? Nice life. No, really, nice life. *Edit* Fiiine, that was a little harsh. Your opinion is your opinion, but ranting about it here won't change it. Criticism helps, but not mindless complaining.

BTW - tell me why the game has only been out for 2 days and it has already dropped in price by $10.00 on Amazon and at Costco. LOL - Bungie - you know this isn't your best work. Halo may have a terminal illness.

agreed. - ODST is a poor effort, a poor gesture to loyal fans. [Edited on 09.23.2009 3:10 PM PDT]

1st of all bungie didnt rate this. this was ment to be an expansion but it had to much stuff so it was classified as a game. this is kinda like a motiver till reach comes out. its not ment to be the most amazing game ever (even tho i think it is) its like a mini gift till reach is out. reach is a full game not odst even tho its priced $60. also bungie is making milliions of of their games the loss of one person wont even change the percent on the profit there making of it

As for Costco, they ALWAYS have low prices. I shop at Costco. Getting the entire bundle of GH: WT was cheaper to buy at Costco on launch day than at GameStop.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Sanity Collapse [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Punisher13 I love how people think Firefight is a rip off of Horde mode when Bungie had a survival type mode years ago in Marathon.[/quote] ^^this. Seems even all the big names that reviewed it omitted this fact as well..[/quote] Exactly. Learn your history, Newcomers.

Please cry moar. Your tears amuse me.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] u aint tuffenuf1 1st of all bungie didnt rate this. this was ment to be an expansion but it had to much stuff so it was classified as a game. [/quote] 100% correct. It say's it on the box, whole new campaign and 3 multi-player maps. FireFight was thrown in for good measure. Anyway, ODST is not a usually high retail price. £30 on Amazon, £40 in game. They are getting away with charging as much as £55 for some new titles, notably COD/MW2. To be honest, I would pay £30-40 any day for a Halo game, they are in my opinion the best games ever created, even above Tomb Raider, Gran Turismo, MGS. Unless they have a [i]really[/i] good reason; anyone who complains about £30 for a game needs a good kick in the ass!

The hogwash was totally by design. Let's try to keep it civil folks. Not everybody's gonna like the game. And while we recognize that such opinions are in fact, terrible, we should let them desperately cling to them without getting all rude and angry about it. :)
-
Hey Urk! You never replied to my PM, do you still have it? Great job on ODST by the way :-)
-
Wahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cry more why don't you. You knew the game's content before you made your purchase. If you actually took the time to enjoy the campaign it would be longer.
-
good, another 12 yr old out of the community, and next time mention firefight, the best part of the game. the campaign's fun, try beating it by yourself, not with your 10 yr old friends. then try beating it on legendary, then try getting the stupid vidmasters! WOW! there's so much more in the game, and then you have the halo 3: mythic. man, your very sad.
