Is it really that hard to add an ODST model into the Recon multiplayer maps?

ask them why they are calling it halo "3" recon. and not halo recon. It confuses me that they would title the game with the name of the game before it. if anything its part of the halo franchise not the halo 3 franchise.

It's been mentioned on Bungie.net and elsewhere that Halo 3: Recon is using an optimized version of the Halo 3 engine.

Could you elaborate on this more?

Are you pushing the Halo 3 engine a bit further since this will be on its own disc?

Why are you (Bungie) saying this is the last Halo game? You kind of left it open there at the end of Halo 3 on legendary. Is there another devloper picking up where Halo 3 leaves off?

Why isn't the game squad-based? Recon sounds like you replaced MC with the ODST and Cortana with the Janitor.

Why can I no longer play Team Doubles on ranked without buying the Legendary Map Pack when I could before the update?
I bought the game and was able to play, so this mode was not created for that map pack.
They should remove the restrictions.

Why should I buy another HALO game when we are sick and tired of all the cheaters and modders ruining the HALO franchise. During recent days, opponents have bragged about using mods.

I'm glad Bungie is autodetecting cheaters. instead of just autodetecting,try this:

BAN THE XBOX CONSOLE OF THE CHEATERS

Myself and a large group of friends just purchased and will be playing COD4 until Bungie FIXES their games so they can't be hacked!!!

The new title should change from HALO:Recon
to HALO:Modders Paradise

Hi,
Are you planning to have a limited edition of Halo3: Recon?

1. Does Bungie consider the door closed in regards to any other stories about MC, or within the Halo Universe at all?

2. Did fan reaction and response to Neil's "Landfall" short help the choice to go with a playable ODST character, or was that idea already formulated? Thanks by the way, for giving us so much to experience!!!

i know they mentioned that they ODST dont have shields like MC, so in order to balance the game what mechanic did they come up with?

Follow up ? in Halo 3 there are sequences which uses a bullet time like effect (when flood talks to MC) is this going to be used at all in H3recon?

also connect the question IE bullet time effect going to be used as the energy shield replacement?

thanks

There are so many parts of the Halo story and universe that the fans don't know about (for example how did Arby and co get back to Earth before the Chief?).

In comparison to this example, the fate of New Mombasa seems to have been solid, what made Bungie choose to expand on this event?

Also, the critical reception to the Arbiter has been mixed since his introduction, focusing both on his involvement in Halo 2 and his lack of playable involvement in Halo 3. Were you tempted to expand on the character's role (ie make him playable) in Halo 3 for the expansion?

why cant we have a different multilayer experience with ODST's instead of startans?

And i don't remember the Brutes on earth in Halo 2, why are they on earth now in Halo 3 Recon?

And elites evil again? i wanna fight them again?

Will dual-wielding be done away with? Can a weapons ron-sight be used? Can you sprint? Be prone? Cover-peek? Blind-fire? Use a silenced assault rifle with mode selector? Melee knife?

Why has allot of the details on the SMG been changed? Is it the ODST's particular preferred configuration or is it just a more detailed model then we saw in Halo 3?
Also, the small 'flashlight' to the left of the sound suppressor with the wire going to the scope, is it a flashlight or is it the 'camera' that allows him see the brutes with the outlines as we saw in the trailer. I'm from the 405TH, we're working on a replica and we want to get it as accurate as possible.

How will you make this new ODST character unique with his skill set and likable with a personality compared to Master Chief. What things will make us say "That is so awesome!" or "Did that really just happen?!"

How many more Halo related games does Bungie need to make for Microsoft before there contract is up? Also who will be making there upcoming games in the future? And if so will Halo be on other consoles then? If there ever is a Halo movie being made what control does Bungie have in having it made?

Probably too late to add a question, but:

Will the ODST have a personality, or will Bungie be sticking to the "hollow protagonist" model where we project ourselves into the character?

hi, not sure if this has been asked yet.

recon is set to take place between h2 and h3; will the game's storyline incorporate any of the implied plot of neil blomkamp's "landfall" vids, or are they not to be considered canon?

as i recall, the marines and odst seem to be getting information about where the chief is going to be landing. will this be a part of recon?

Seeing that the Assault Rifle wasn't featured in Halo 2, will it be making an appearance here in Halo 3: Recon?

will it support avatars? a list of different unlockable helmets would be pretty cool, and would actually make me interested in the damn things... other than that, all i cared about was answered in the weekly update...

not that i actually give a damn, just the only thing i can think of to ask...

Will the game be scripted like Call of Duty 4 or will the supporting AI have the same intelligence like in Halo 3?

Will the story incorporate more of the expanded universe of Haloverse? Will we see characters that were only mentioned in the novels and comics?

I know multiplayer with ODSTs is out, so will Halo 3: Recon have tools for making machinima (i.e. co-op campaign, weapon lowering, theatre replay of campaign)? Thanks.

If Bungie hates the "R" word so much because of all the incessant fanboy nagging, why choose it as the name of the expansion? Unless they actually decide they've had their fun with the armor and decide to release it, why would they open themselves up to a million more, " I CAN HAZ RECONZ"?

Is the new hero going to have shields or is it strictly stealth?
