I think ODST slayer would be good for a weekend playlist or something like that. you would have rechargeable shields but your health wouldn’t regenerate. There would be no Thruster abilities like thrust, hover,ground pound, charge etc. ( id be open to thrusters being included). No sprint (but i’m also open to sprint being in it. and the players would spawn with a tactical magnum and a silenced SMG. There would be no Forerunner weapons on the maps. And the initial spawn could be from a platform or pelican above the map to simulate the ODST drop pod experience. And people could make ODST themed maps or it could be played on preexisting maps.

I have an ODST Slayer variant on my account, maybe hit me up with a PM and I can share it with you, I think it’s pretty good, but I’m full of myself.
Sounds like a good idea, maybe for Halo 6 though.

why wait till halo 6 when you can just forge it.
I remember playing an ODST slayer gametype in custom games at one point, and it was on an ODST-themed map. Could be something neat for them to put into matchmaking.

No I mean for 343 to add it officially into the game, like it’s own gamemode.
I personally think this would be awesome. I mean sure you can play it in custom’s and on forge mode, but I think it would be a brilliant weekend playlist! Make it happen!
Really cool idea. I had a similar idea a while back in the form of an ODST and the multiplayer was basically what you described in terms of the abilities to cater to the classic Halo crowd and the Spartan games could stick with the fast abilities for the new players.
How about a Halo 5: ODST with this as the foundations for multiplayer?
On a side note, I always thought it would’ve been cool if H3: ODST had PvP multiplayer… missed opportunity.
Could’ve been very similar to Halo: CE.

Sounds like a good idea and i’m pretty sure there’s some ODST themed maps we could download from the file share or we can do a regular map
And now that i think about it the ODST slayer formula could be used for other game modes like CTF, Strong holds, assault ETC. Since Halo 3 ODST never had any PVP multiplayer this could serve as a way to fill the gap Halo 3 ODST missed. It might seem unrealistic for all of these ODST variations to make it into matchmaking but it would still be pretty cool. even if it was for a limited time
