Why do people like this?

Also that terminal story is embarrassing

You wouldn't get it.

>good story
>good atmosphere
>likeable cast of characters that were all voiced by actors from 2000's era sci-fi kino
>one of the greatest vidya soundtracks of all time
>the last true Halo game before Reach bastardized the formula with armor abilities
The only flaw was the $60 price tag.

this is one of the greatest moments in any game ever made

The ost is good but the last halo game to have an interesting plot of any kind was halo 2.
>>
Atmosphere makes or breaks a game like this and ODST's atmosphere is incredible
Good story, introduced firefight

The original Halo 3 ODST did not have any rain whatsoever. This was a visual feature added in the MCC version upon high demand.
>>
>>728980063
It had some good atmosphere and levels good and bad. It's kinda overrated though, but fun enough.

It's a great side story. Reach on the other hand......

the least believable part about this shitpost is 343 actually adding something good
>>
>>728980984
Nah it's there, it's just extremely faint to the point it was impossible to see on CRTs which people were still using at the time. The MCC made the rain more visible, that was the change.

The real truth is that Bungie era largely relied on the cinematography, music, atmosphere and delivery to feel good; when taken in isolation and especially going forwards from H3, anything on its own is pretty bland and boring. ODST basically wouldn't be fondly remembered by some if it wasn't for this mix. And this, above anything else, is what 343 lacks, since their cohesion for all of it put together is a massive mixed bag and no heart behind the delivery of the generic bullshit and word salad sci-fi terms.

Not him, but the no rain thing is actually true. The secondary team behind it said they couldn't do it

Campaign and zombies was great

Forget the name of the zombies mode lmao

last good halo game

is MCC worth getting if missed out on halo games after 2?

Insane that joe staten wrote that

Yeah it's worth it. Just play the bungie games

Anyone that says ODST is better than Reach is a fucking CLOWN. Firefight alone is better in Reach.
>>
>>728981882
Really good value on sale. 6 campaigns for 10 bucks plus multiplayer and mod support on steam
>>
>>728981882
The multiplayer is very much thoroughly active.
>>
>>728981968
Only for reach and 3
>>
>>728982063
Wrong. Dipshit.
>>
>>728981924
Firefight is better in ODST, especially MCC with Floodfight being an option. Reach is a bit less special despite a larger Covenant roster, in due part because the Covvies are easier altogether.

>>728981882
If you're in them for the campaigns they're full-featured, though the writing isn't that great. If you're in them for the multiplayer, you can't really go wrong besides some ping/sync problems every so often. They're much more pronounced in online co-op,though. If you're in them for mods, it has Steam Workshop and quite a few things to fuck about with. If you're a modder, they've got modding tools even.

Try to get into a halo 2 anniversary btb

>>728980984
little unrelated but are all of the campaigns fixed in mcc or are there still problems? I know ce was fixed pretty thoroughly

Atmosphere, good writing with fun characters, a pseudo open path within the city.
Did I mention atmosphere? The music is superb, and the art direction works so well.

High kino, indeed.

stop using the board to shill your shit tranny franchise. odst is shit. Halo is shit.

>Halo 1>ODST>HALO 2
ODST felt more grounded amd the only thing I remember from 2 is duel welding, which was fun, but not necessary
>>
Never got why this game was cockrode so hard
>muh atmosphere
You walk around in the cool hub area for like 10 minutes then just start a standard halo 3 mission. Also the ai and the girl story is dumb
>>
>>728980063
Haw abawt a nice keebap

>>728980063
I wiah the game was even half as interesting as the trailer they made for it, which is the only ad that has successfully made me buy a thing I had no interest in previously.
Also
>no matchmaking for multiplayer
What the fuck were they thinking?
>>
>>728980087
What story?
>>
>>728980063
No one outside of America cared about it

>>728981882

Very much so, it's a steal for the amount of content you get. Multiplayer (which includes custom games) is alive too for Reach and 3
>>
>>728982063
3 is all you need
>>
>>728980063
I was there for the release of each game - I don't actually remember people thinking very highly of ODST. It was kind of just an alright spin-off. They bundled in a disc that contained Halo 3 multiplayer because ODST on its own wasn't that substantial. I haven't played it in years but I'm sure it's a decent Halo game, just not as good as the other Bungie games.

Reminder that the Halo TV show exist
>Saw it yesterday
>"This is worse than Rings of Power"

>>728990052
At the time it was criticized from the outside and the campaign-goers for lacking in a PvP element, being really short despite the asking price, and fucking up the whole ODST fantasy thanks to mostly being a modified Chief with health kits, a stranger grenade throw, and weaker melee. The big community that grew around it at first was primarily around Firefight since Horde modes were super popular at the time, before people gradually cooled off and had a more positive reception with time. After 343 managed to screw up so bad that they made Reach look better in hindsight (despite raping that game with the Title Update), ODST is basically a cult classic seen in far better light.

Helps that the MCC making it a bundle game now effectively solves the perception issues of its content worth by simply being added alongside everything else.

>Reminder that the Halo TV show exist
I refuse
There's exactly one good scene in the show and its the flood intro at the end of season 2 and I'm glad it got canceled

Here's the neat thing, they don't
