When ODST's where introduced as playable characters in Halo: [I]ODST[/I] the bungie community got hyped. DOnt you think it'd be a waste to remove these characters? How about we make them playable for Reach MP. Yes, playable! Spartans are great but wouldn't it be cool to choose a different UNSC soldier?
Being able to play as an ODST in MP would really change up the style of Halo.
Lets take the ODST's from the Halo ODST game. They where much slower, had more gadgets and had those cool silenced weapons. Dont forget the visor :)!
[b] HOW CAN BRUTES AND ODST's BE IMPLEMENTED WITHOUT AFFECTING SPARTANS AND ELITES?[/b]
Simple. Lets say that ODST's and Brutes will drop health packs when killed, allowing other ODST and Brutes to pick it up like ammo. Just imagine the possibilities of ODST and Brutes In MP, Just imagine. It'd be on of the most remarkable multiplayer halo's ever created!
Who's side are you on?
Ok, lets take that exact ODST model. No health recharge, 3 grenades, and all that junk. What if we could put that model into a "SPARTAN-ODST vs Elite-Brute" playlist.
Imagine a Brute as a playable character!(ROFL COPTER)
Lets say the Brute was an exact model of an ODST, just you know...a brute. Let me explain.
The brute has no health recharge. Three spike grenades. and all that junk :).
Why would you choose an ODST or Brute in MP if they dont compare to Elites or spartans? Lets try to make it worth while by making maps to fit them. Brutes seem very close quarters and melee. So that'd be an area you might want to be this character. ODST? Well, lets say their are maps that involve the night and being stealthy. ODST's would be characters you want.
IDK, This is just a small that that was put into a disorganized splatter of words.
PLEASE DONT MAKE RUDE COMMENTS, JUST SAY No THANKS> :)

Implementing a playable ODST charecter really wouldn't work in the big scheme of things online (UNLESS they had gametypes that forced all players into being ODSTs, which could tick ppl off)- Brutes wouldn't be a problem but that is merely because they are very similar to Spartans & Elites in terms of physical resiliance/capability.
-
No thanks. I really don't care that much for ODSTs and I hate Brutes. Also, completely retooling the multiplayer (moreso than they already are) doesn't sound plausible or interesting.
-
Well Reach is going to have Spartans vs Elites so maybe they can also give us ODSTs vs Brutes too.
-
WE ARE ODST!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] WakelessCheese I think it could potentially be very difficult to implement well into the game, but if they managed to then it could be an interesting way to play. [i]Hmm, I wonder what ODST's Versus Brutes would be like in Multiplayer...[/i] I must know![/quote] It'd be like Spartans vs Elites minus 1. ahhaa

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] the way i r I was thinking this a few days ago. VIP gametype, the normal players are ODSTs/Brutes, and the VIP becomes a Spartan-II/Brute Chieftan or Elite. Would make being the VIP a good thing, instead of a bad one.[/quote] that or maybe halo's equivalent to Hardcore in MW2 Because you have no shields you would be weaker but, they implement the stamina system so while you don't die as fast you still couldn't compare to a spartan or elite

If this is to happen each character model MUST have their pros and cons over each other. If playing free for all ODSTs don't stand a chance against S-3s in any way. Brutes would need to be faster or have better shields (which will have a slim chance of happening according to past games) to score melee kills frequently.
-
Sorry dude, but this realy sounds lame...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ST54 JB Probably no. I didn't care for the ODST's and making them as a playable character model won't make me like them. I'd rather play Spartans vs elites[/quote] Its like upgrading it from Spartan vs Elite to UNSC vs Covenant

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Crude [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Zekkalkan I don't think that would be well balanced. It would be cool to have some brute or ODST AI in MP, though.[/quote] It would be balanced since both (Reach)Spartan and ODST use Health packs[/quote] That doesn't secure that the game will be balanced. That just gives you a theory that may make it balanced. You have absolutely no way of telling that right now.

No Thanks, character models maybe, but entire new MP is kinda meh.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] GPK Ethan I like this idea its pretty awesome![/quote]
-
This actually sounds pretty cool, although I wouldn't want to be classed-based, if that is what you were getting at. The Brutes should probably move slower, have alot of health but weaker shields, and have devastating melee attacks. The ODSTs could be weaker in most reagrds, but they're smaller than everyone else. Plus, the VISR would help alot. Or heck, everyone could play exactly the same and the only diffrence was just appearence.
-
Spartans and ODST !

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] slayer123222 I like that idea that should do that, it would require a lot of work though.[/quote] Not much. Just new armor.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] WeZZeR 117 What if instead of classes there were factions. You picked either covenant or UNSC. depending on rank you can pick different characters, for example... A new player must be ODST, then spartan III's then II's or something. Likewise for Covenant. Start as a Brute than than an Elite Than a Zealot I know that's kind of out there, but it would be kind of interesting. I personally would love to be a Elite again mostly a zealot because spartans suck compared to them. [/quote] Fix'd
-
Yea, I think maybe factions would be cool.
-
It really wouldnt be harder.......cause the brutes would get assasinated easily and the odsts would get headshoted eaisily so they wouldnt really be harder just different.But it should be a different gametype but sounds like a good idea but ill be happy anyway.
-
that seems like a good idea and mabye a special player gets to be a chieften or a heavy wepon sparten
