Posts: Marine forces are informed by Dare that the Covenant ground troops are massing beneath the assault carrier for an organized retreat. Dozens of ODSTs are launched into Earth's atmosphere in a coordinated drop to infiltrate and capture the Prophet of Regret aboard the assault carrier.

They pass by a few destroyed Frigates slowly falling from orbit around the elevator and begin to enter cloud cover above the city. As they pass through it and approach the carrier, the Captain orders the squad to adjust their trajectory; sending the ODSTs "way off" of their intended course, in Mickey's words following the order.

Before the ODSTs are able to deploy their internal parachutes in preparation for landing, however, Dutch picks up a radiation alert in his pod, and the assault carrier proceeds to enter slipspace , closely followed by the UNSC frigate In Amber Clad. The radiation and energy burst emitted by the slipspace rupture disables the drop pods before they are able to deploy their parachutes, sending them out of control; the ODSTs are scattered across New Mombasa.

Dare's commandeered squad, farthest away from the slipspace rupture, manages to survive the fall, but the remaining ODSTs aiming for the carrier are killed in action. During the fall, the Rookie's pod collides with Mickey's pod, sending it out of control. The high-G forces caused by the impact knocks the Rookie unconscious. Six hours after the drop pm , the Rookie awakens to the sound of two Phantoms flying nearby.

He soon regains his situational awareness, discovering that his drop pod is lodged in a building at least twenty feet off the ground. With no choice, he jumps out of the pod, and falls to the street, slightly injuring himself when he hits the ground. After combing the area for medical supplies, he heads in to the city to find his squad. Almost immediately after starting out, the Rookie encounters a few Covenant patrols covering a small area.

The Rookie uses his silenced weaponry to eliminate the patrols, after which he is alerted to a ringing data terminal. Upon accessing the terminal, the Rookie is connected to the Superintendent , a second-generation "dumb" AI tasked with maintaining the city's infrastructure. The A. The Superintendent begins to assist the Rookie, giving him maps, marking notable locations throughout the city, and providing warnings using road signs.

As the Rookie travels throughout the city, he finds clues regarding the fate of his squadmates. Six hours earlier, Buck had landed somewhat safely if uncomfortably and made radio contact with Dare, who told him that she had been trapped in her drop pod. With the assistance of Marines in the area, Buck fought his way to her position.

Along the way, he noticed a "family feud" within the Covenant, as many Sangheili were found dead and seemed to have been killed by the Brutes. By the time Buck got to Dare's pod, she was nowhere to be found.

Buck noticed a Huragok , and saw that it was holding Dare's helmet in one of its tentacles. Curious, the alien began to examine Buck. Having mistaken its curiosity for hostility, Romeo sniped the inquisitive alien, inadvertently triggering the bomb mounted on its back. The resulting explosion threw the helmet out of sight, although the Superintendent recorded a video showing where it landed. Romeo and Buck regrouped, the former stating his belief that Dare was dead.

The Rookie later finds the helmet. Meanwhile, Dutch landed in the Uplift Nature Reserve , where he led a Warthog charge in an effort to breach Covenant defenses and secure the long-departed carrier's landing zone.

Mickey had landed nearby, and stumbled upon retreating Marines, along with a tank. There, he and Dutch regrouped and found a desperate police officer, who was searching for an explosives expert. Mickey, who had originally hoped to dig in at the rally point and wait for backup, was pressed into service, and he and Dutch headed to the ONI Alpha Site with the police officer in tow. Dutch and Mickey used explosives to destroy the bridge leading to the base, but the Covenant easily countered by using Phantoms to land troops past the broken bridge.

The courtyard was quickly overrun by Covenant forces, prompting the besieged humans to retreat to the structure's interior. The humans are eventually forced to retreat from the building using a police Pelican. As they fled, they destroyed the base using remotely-detonated explosives, preventing the Covenant from using the structure and its contained information. There, the four ODSTs used missile pods , heavy machine guns, and rocket launchers to defend the building from Banshees and Phantoms with landing parties.

They were successful in repelling the Covenant assault, but in the process, Romeo was badly wounded by a Brute Chieftain , and their Pelican was damaged and left inoperable. Buck led the group to Kikowani Station, planning to use the tram system to escape the city, stabilizing Romeo with biofoam along the way. Upon arrival, however, the group discovered that the tram tunnels had been flooded.

They proceeded to hijack a Phantom and escape the city, fighting their way past enemy Banshees and even a Scarab in the process. Along the way, they noticed several CCS-class battlecruisers moving toward the crater left by the assault carrier's slipspace jump.

After escaping the city proper, Buck realized where Dare was, and ordered Mickey to turn back and set him down. Meanwhile, the Rookie, having made his way to the Superintendent's Data Center, finds Captain Dare locked in on sub-level nine. She reveals that her orders were to fight her way to the AI's data center and retrieve the information that had recently been discovered about what lay beneath the city, and deny access to the Covenant.

The data center, however, had been infested with an entire hive of Drones , which in turn were supported by numerous other Covenant forces. She explains that this was why she requisitioned a whole squad for her mission: it would have been suicide to fight these forces alone.

Dare and the Rookie fight their way to the data center, arriving just as the severely damaged Superintendent finally shuts down. Closer inspection of the AI's core by the pair reveals a lone, hiding Huragok. Dare reveals an ONI discovery: the Huragok were enslaved by the Covenant, and have little love for their overlords. She also reveals that this particular Huragok, nicknamed Vergil due to its absorption of the Vergil subroutine in the Superintendent, has combined its knowledge with the information possessed by the Superintendent, information that can aid humanity in the war.

The two convince the Huragok to follow them just as the Covenant arrive; Buck arrives at the same time. They escape the data core and fight though hordes of Covenant troops before reaching an elevator, which takes them to the city's coastal highway.

Buck informs Dare and the Rookie that he has a stolen Phantom waiting in the shipyards down the highway. Vergil powers up an Olifant ; Dare drives, while the Rookie and Buck provide supporting fire from a Warthog , and later, a Scorpion. More Covenant ships enter the city, and the fleet begins to glass the area in an attempt to uncover the buried Forerunner Portal to the Ark. Buck, having witnessed glassing during the Battle of Reach , is particularly disturbed by the sight.

A Scarab manages to score a direct hit on the Oliphant, damaging it severely and forcing the ODSTs to abandon their vehicles and take cover inside the building entrance to Uplift Wildlife Reserve.

Buck orders Mickey to provide extraction instead of waiting for them to arrive. When Mickey and the rest of the squad reach their position, the group boards their captured Phantom, narrowly avoiding a Covenant carrier's glassing beam. They escape the city as more and more Covenant ships arrive to excavate the portal. Dare warns Johnson to be careful. He is voiced by Adam Baldwin , also of Firefly fame.

Despite being one of the best battle-tested snipers of the UNSC, he is aggressive, disrespectful, and difficult to work with off-the-field. It is established outside of the game that Romeo would have been dishonourably discharged years ago because of his personality if the UNSC didn't need every soldier they could get their hands on to fight the Covenant.

He is voiced by high-profile voice actor Nolan North. Despite his enthusiasm, he has never seen a planet get glassed by the Covenant unlike the rest of his squad. Mickey is actually of a lower rank than the Rookie; the latter received that nickname because he joined the squad more recently, not because he is the lowest ranking member of it.

He is playable in the "Kizingo Boulevard" flashback mission. His signature weapon is the M41 Rocket Launcher. He is voiced by Alan Tudyk , also of Firefly fame. Halo 3: ODST's single-player campaign plays somewhat differently than the other games in the Halo franchise. The game sets the players in a partially open city with the goal of finding and investigating the last known locations of your four ODST squad-mates while fighting off the Covenant forces in the area. Once you reach one of the last-known waypoints of a teammate, you discover an object related to the events they've been through--such as a ruined sniper rifle hanging from a street light--and enter a flashback to earlier that day, where you control the squad member for an entire level.

Through these minute or so flashbacks which play more like traditional, linear, Halo levels you discover the fate of your teammate and unravel the mystery of the events that occurred in New Mombasa.

The New Mombasa " open world " is comparable in function to the hub world from a platformer. Although the city in Halo 3: ODST is fairly large, its design and structure is not to be compared with that of Liberty City from Grand Theft Auto or other traditional sandbox-style open world games , given that there is no purpose to the hub world other than the story missions. The impact the city's look has and the time difference between flashback sequences and the Rookie's seemingly hopeless current situation are big parts of the game.

Because the Rookie is shorter than the Master Chief 's towering 7' height, all enemies and vehicles seem slightly larger. The heads-up display is different from previous games since the player views the world from inside a standard-issue ODST helmet instead of a suit of Mjolnir armor or a Sangheili war harness.

However, with the switch to a non-Spartan protagonist, some of the player's abilities are lessened:. Firefight is a survival mode that resembles the Horde mode in Gears of War 2. There are a total of 10 maps in which a maximum of four players can defend against waves of enemies. Each wave gets progressively harder, players killed will respawn at the end of each wave provided at least one player remains alive. The game continues until all players are dead and the game is over.

Firefight mode utilizes the unlockable skulls found in Halo 3, so they do not need to be unlocked in ODST.
