Its hard to get now,and then when ODST comes out everyone will have it. Just connect the dots. ITS A VIDEO GAME PEOPLE.
I will guarantee you that not every single person will have it. My reasoning for this is that, not 100% of the Halo population is going to fork up money for ODST and getting all seven vidmaster achievements from both games is task that not every ten year old can accomplish.
I cant wait- First thing I do in ODST- play a few levels, find the easiest one, do Classic on it. My entire first day on ODST will be dedicated to getting Recon. I actually wish it were harder to get though because I want to wear Recon and feel good about it. Kinda like the Katana (if it werent glitched)- but I hate wearing it because Hayabusa sucks (turtle neck armor...)
i will prolly get recon when i get my copy of odst just to get all the armor. I will admit that i wanted it before i knew odst was coming out because not many ppl had it.
Theres no point in having recon, it's just another set of armor that will just become something that everyone will hate or get really annoyed with. The only piece that i really like but don't want is the helmet because it's just really cool looking.
First of all: why should anyone care if the armor gets overrated or worn by everyone? It doesnt matter because if you havent noticed- whatever armor you are wearing right now is the same armor that hundreds of thousands of people are wearing already (excluding those with recon right now) So why does it matter how popular the armor is? Wear the armor that looks the best to you.
guess what im buying odst for the campaign and firefight best thing ever .... ill get recon but i wont where it the shoulders are scout with a piece cut and folded up.... the body is a more detailed regular armor and the helm is hyabussa without the fancy top...... its not all that special.... now if i want something its a darth vader helm lol or even better a real head!
You know what I hear? That Marathon, that XBLA game by Bungie has a Vidmaster achievement in it that you need to acquire before you get recon. I don't know for sure, but I think this was included in a Bungie Update. I would laugh at all those "I'm gettin' recon with ODST!" people if this were true... I can't wait to see all the complaint threads saying "I DIDN'T GET MAI RECONZ!!!"
LOL. I would laugh if that actually happened. Kinda hope it doesn't though... I don't really want to pick marathon up just for recon. But if you look here, there's an achievement called 'VidMaster' worth 35G. This is what you have to do to get it.
