DISCLAIMER: if you did not play Halo Reach or do not know about the campaign, you may not understand too much. So please refrain from showing an ignorant attitude!
Hopefully the provoking title got your attention. Know why I say no to Halo 5 ODST? Because I think it should atleast be in production later. So. Halo 3 ODST gave us HUGE information about what had happened in New Mombasa while we were kicking -Yoink- on a Halo ring in Halo 2. Halo 3 ODST was the most funnest campaign in my opinion because we got to try something new other than having your normal shields as a spartan.
“Ugh lets just get to the point already”
OK. So. The reason why I don’t want Halo 5 ODST to happen is because we are leaving Halo Reach behind. We got to play in a world that was attacked by covenant in New Mombasa. Now, think of New Alexandria in Halo Reach. Wouldn’t you want to know more of what had happened?
“Whats there to find out? We played the Exodus mission and flew a falcon around after words.”
OK. But hear me out. Do you recognize that one objective where we had to escort Buck’s falcon? Buck said something about getting his team out of the city. This COULD have been the team we played with in Halo 3 ODST and resulting in a prequel. Having a game called Halo Reach: ODST would bring us much more information about how Buck got out of Reach. Now before you go on to tell me “oh well if you have read the book…” I just want to say that I think Halo Reach: ODST would make a great game. Think of those buildings that were just tumbling down in the mission New Alexandria. What could it have been for the ODST squadrons down there? Did they have to run from a collapsing building? I bet it would be exhilarating!
Now I did say before that we got to see what happened at New Mombasa while kicking -Yoink- at a Halo ring. It would be the same thing for Halo Reach: ODST, but while we were so high up and unable to see what was happening down there.
Another thing that would benefit the Halo community is that Halo Reach: ODST will bring back a lot of classic art styles, which many fans desire and are probably looking forward to Halo Wars 2. This could possibly help bring some old fans back so that more people will be playing Halo. Also, one more thought I had in mind, Halo Reach was an era we all knew that it was the GOD of armor customization. Think of what we could do in Halo Reach:ODST. If we had a rookie before Rookie from Halo 3 ODST, we could customize our own rookie and have him look as badass as we want! Now this is probably the same thing that would go on for Halo 5 ODST, but Halo 5’s armor customization is even worse. So I wouldn’t want that to reflect on a new ODST game. Distrust is atleast what I have in the new styles 343I has to offer.
If you read this all then THANK YOU. Its hard enough to get my points out there. If you wish to comment down to disagree then please specify why instead of sending insults like some other people do. As a reminder, if you haven’t played Reach, then you might not be able to understand my point(s). Once again, thank you for reading!

Sure, but I mean, there’s not a lot of point in calling it Halo 5 ODST.

Yeah true. I’m just a big fan of older Halo games.
I like this idea I would prefer a campaign of the other Spartan III’s that were on reach with their SPI armor and etc. That’s just my preference though
There is already so much stuff focused on Reach, we don’t need another thing focused on it. I’d rather have another 4-man game that does have shooting elements, but also stealth and detective work that centers on the Ferret covert ops team led by Veta Lopis and the three Spartan-IIIs from Team Saber.

Thats is a good point. I did love ODST for their stealthiness. That would be even cooler with spartans!
No to Halo 5 odst simply because where would they fit into the story line at all? Odst drop in behind enemy lines… What enemy lines where there in H5? Pretty sure there were no ODST involved in the Covie civil war. If there were a spin off of H5 it should be an entire Covent game on Sanghelios about the civil war. I think we are long over due for a Covie based game. Would must rather see that than another odst game.
