    Yeah, you can play as Johnson in Firefight if you preorder the game.

    But in that picture... Is it just me, or is Johnson holding a new type of pistol? It doesn't look like the Halo 3 magnum. And are those breach charges on his belt?

    ODST will be $30, you don't know how many people don't know that. Bungie even said it was going to be $30 so I wouldn't worry about over paying.

    I sure hope you're kidding, or atleast being sarcastic. Bungie said that before they even announced firefight. After that, they said microsoft is making it the full $60 because of the 3 new maps included, the halo reach beta, and firefight.

    Everyone will start with the same weapons... probably an SMG and a pistol.

    this is true, but it defeats the whole point of having different characters in firefight. it would be much cooler if you and your squad could all have different weapons, and therefore, different specialties to contribute.

    Let's bring this thread back alive :D
    We've all read the Return of the New Hotness update on Bnet right? What'd you guys think of it? Can't wait to see the new tracking system for firefight, it looks great. Very organized and covers a lot of little details.
    This though seems very interesting.
    Gives you a reason to play more firefight.

    Very interesting, and a clever way to convince you to keep playing firefight, instead of other players. Now if only we could lower our guns in multiplayer, or maybe get to start when all of the covenant arrive to attack us (Machinima Reasons). Its been a long time since I've weilded a SOCOM (the sound-suppressed magnum) And I've been using the SMG in multiplayer more often, and trying to ignore BRs (Their like Crack!). The SMG is alot better then I remember it being, It practically a smaller AR in terms of damage, but you already knew that. All I have is wants, Bungie doesn't have to do any of them, I'dd just like them so I can focus on coming up with new things to complain about (I'm mocking the community)

    In one of the RvB videos, Johnson has his gun lowered for the majority of the machinima. So maybe in offline you can lower your gun for firefight.

    I think he meant "if only we could lower our guns online"

    I just wish they didnt make such an annoying button sequence for lowering- I have to use my nose to press the last button...

    It's annoying as hell, but really, can we have a 16 player xbox live match where you could lower your guns? Without have to molest your controller with an unnatural grip or useing other parts of your body?

    Now that I look at the ODST achievements, it's looking like a fairly easy 1000G, a lot of these are story line based. Except maybe for the vidmasters, although we don't know just how difficult they are. Classic could be a challange.

    All Halo 3 ODST achievements.

    On the topic of forging, ever since I heard "I'm On A Boat" by The Lonely Island, I've wanted to build a boat, in H3 of course. So I'm hopeing that some guy whith to much time on his hands figures out how to build a replica of the "I'm On A Boat" boat in the waters around Longshore, and I really hope we can get really deep into that water without dying, underwater levels would be FTW (For The Win), especially a boat to Make a meaningless Halo music video while on the boat, or just at the very least, allow us to build somewhat aquatic levels without getting killed by a kill wall. I would love to have a whole buch of aquatic maps (I.E. Submarine, I'm On A Boat, Shark attack/Jaws, Ocean Tunnels) That would be awsome.
