ODST 2?

So I was just thinking about it and I think it’d be friggin sick if 343 made Halo 4: ODST and with that came DLC for ODST armor and possibly even more armor like Mark V and CQC and Firefight could return with more features than ever!

ODST 2 would be more of an open world type shooter with plenty of things to explore, side missions to complete, collectibles to find that include weapons and upgrades for your armor, and -Yoink- to blow up!

What about this? There’s a leveling system in ODST 2 in the campaign, RPG style where you can spend skill points to increase certain things like reload times and movement speed, this leveling system can also get you things in Halo 4 like the full set of ODST armor or Mark V by getting to a certain level.

The gameplay could similar to that of Far Cry 3 where you can approach most any situation how you want to, you can go in guns blazing with a SAW, sneak around taking the entire base down without noticing, use teamwork to take bases down, and more!

There could be multiple different armor pieces that all give you certain attributes such as some sort of Sniper armor where you get less recoil for semi auto rifles and snipers but less accuracy with everything else, or something like that. These armors would be obtainable through finding them, completing a certain amount of missions/certain side mission, or buying it through some sort of store.

Possible Firefight Maps
Plantation
Set on the mountain range farmlands of Reach

Lost
Ancient forerunner ship lost in deep space

Railway
Large circular map with multiple stopping points and a train to take you to each point

Malfunction
Malfunctioning holodeck where the location, time of day, and background changes every once in a while

Shipwreck
A Covenant cruiser that crashed in the jungles of Africa during the Battle of Earth, the cruiser is now covered in vines and foliage which would look friggin awesome.

Rooftops
Three rooftops connected only by the cranes in between them.

Quarantine
Flood infested swamp like the one in 343 Guilty Spark

So what do you think? Because now that I think about it I’d friggin love an ODST 2 :slight_smile:

I think they should fix this game before they ruin another.

I would love a Halo 4 ODST, but not now since they got rid of firefight. What is ODST without firefight?

sound cool to me, but I doubt it will happen, though halo has had consecutive releases ever year for the last three years. (Halo:Reach 2010, Halo:Combat Evolved Anniversary 2011, Halo 4 2012)

I honestly think that after Castle map pack they should just focus on Halo 5 to make it the best they can, and to make sure no features are pointlessly missing.

Well of course they could always make it a separate thing that comes with H4:ODST. The amount of possibilities with Firefight is amazing but before I go on some 10000 character post about all the things 343 could do with Firefight I’ll just put these here:

It won’t happen as dlc

Maybe the rookie could return? Or there could be some closure as to why the arbiter isn’t even mentioned in Halo 4.

> It won’t happen as dlc

Sorry not really what I meant, misleading title there, changing now.

> I think they should fix this game before they ruin another.

Really mate, really, because lately all people seem to do is winge about how Halo 4 is bad, or something, I generally avoid haters. If you don’t like the game, get off the game’s forum, stop trolling some poor guys post, and get over it.

I’m really not expecting it to happen, I’m thinking they’re going to release Halo Wars 2 or Halo 2 Anniversary, but it’d still be awesome if 343 surprised us with it.

I would play it!
ODST took place between 2 and 3 so would this be between 3 and 4?

Adding a online firefight hopper to it would also be a huge plus!

Yup!

I’ve added some more stuffs to the OP!

Maps added to the OP!

Firefight would be really nice. A forge mode for firefight on the other hand…

Brettyson you are amazing! I completely agree with what you said. Halo 4 is a new experience and players need to stop living in 2004-2007. Anyway, a little bit closer to the original topic, I hope 343 consider making a ODST 2 as I thought the first ODST was seriously under-rated. As long as Nathan Fillian returns as Buck accompanied by the original cast with a few others I’d certainly buy it! Although I wouldn’t want it to collide with Halo 5 as 343 need to put a lot of work in it to make it truly amazing so that it stands out.

An expansion is cool, but based upon ODSTs again? How about it be based upon spec ops Elites fighting the civil war on Sanghelios?

That… would be flocking epic!

i can’t imagine the amount of complaining for every little difference that there would inevitably be, but if done well and true to the vibe of the first ODST, an open-world campaign, firefight and possibly a halo 4: forge 2.0 would all be epicly fine by me and my money. :stuck_out_tongue:

I would prefer a Halo Wars 2…

For the PC…

It would be better for it’s RTS roots.
