T.F.S in ODST???

Hello peeps.

I have been getting a few messages about whether I am going to use ODST for T.F.S. The answer to this question is "No".... I will not be using ODST for my series for a number of reasons. The main reason is the same as to why I did not use Halo 3 campaign for my series.

The other is because it is too limited. Firstly, it's all based on Earth. T.F.S isn't based on Earth and there are only 4 characters, the rest are A.I, I only like to do things if they are purely created by me. Vehicles, Men and Elites must be able to be controlled by a real person, not the A.I. The firefight mode would purely be 4 players acting out scenes based on what the covenant do. This doesn't bode well considering I am limited to how I film the shots, what happens in the scene.

I may as well play firefight with some friends and edit it up.

I will obviously use the Mythic map pack, but this isn't ODST, it's multiplayer.

Just so your aware, I will not be using anything from the ODST Disc for T.F.S and this is not why the episode is taking time. It's taking time because the animation we are doing is all being done by one person and when you see it, you will realise why it has taken a while. It's purely because doing what we are doing is extrememly difficult although it may not look like it...

Speak soon.

I too know how limited it is to make a machinima, using ODST's disc. I've currently tried out a number of ways. I've event tried putting in 2 profiles during the campaign at night and lowering their weapons. ODST machinima, if you want to lower your weapon can only be done with 2 people on a single XBOX. If you used systemlink then you'd probably be able to use 4, but it's still not that good as both the character look the same. Only way you'd be able to tell the difference would be by weapons. You could do it in firefight as you have multiple character options, but the trouble is that if you were filming a talk sceen, there'd be plasma blasts, mortars, brutes and grunts shoulting, etc.

So I can under stand why you wouldn't use ODST in TFS.

Oh and sorry this comment was a bit...Long.

Kind regards

Dear Darknal:
I have been waiting both optomistically and patiently but please update the forgotten spartans man. Of course if I emailed you, you wouldn't respond.

OH yeah Darknal the comment that was posted at November 1 was me franz 101697. By the way 101697 is not my birthday it is actually 12/17/92. Darknal if ever you decide to go to youtube my little bro's class is asking that you check out jajd productions by clairendfriends also the video my brother is a dancing tard. So keep up the awesome work but get some rest. i think whoever is a true fan will understand that you work really hard and will understand why you dont make a new video every month. I would like to see that Conan lived barely and he had a huge argument with master chief.
