Instead, you rely on stamina, which acts much the same way, though it takes longer to recharge and doesn’t absorb as much punishment before going down. They also don’t have access to energy shields. ODSTs are slower than the Chief, don’t jump as high, can’t dual wield, and do less damage with melee attacks.
The differences between playing as the Chief and one of the ODSTs are subtle, but they make a big difference. New Mombasa is a fascinating environment, but it’s also a dangerous place to be, especially for someone who isn’t a Spartan. "Every encounter in ODST intense – which is good, because the game is more than content to let you go long period without fighting when you’re playing as The Rookie. The way the game guides you to them and the bonuses they offer make the city feel alive and reinforces the importance of an optional narrative that is surprisingly well told. Finding enough audio logs also unlocks Superintendent caches that contain weapons and vehicles hidden throughout the city, providing a reason to hunt the logs down even if you’re not interested in digging into ODST’s lore. Bungie manages to weave them into the game’s environmental narrative as the Superintendent, the AI that runs New Mombasa, uses car alarms, signs, and audio cues to guide The Rookie to the logs’ locations. This even extends to ODST’s use of audio logs, which tell a standalone story that compliments the narrative of the main game. It’s a joy to wander New Mombasa and appreciate the attention to detail that pervades the entire game. The game’s jazz-influenced score, heavy on saxophone, piano, and sounds of rain, compliments its sense of visual style to create the most atmospheric Halo title. Abandoned cars and ransacked kiosks dot the landscape, while signs flash messages for inhabitants that are no longer there. The city is deserted, and Covenant patrols roam the streets, hunting for survivors. New Mombasa overflows with atmosphere, especially in The Rookie’s section, which takes place entirely at night. ODST’s story owes a great deal to detective stories and film noir and the game’s music and atmosphere reflect that. Each clue leads to a new mission retelling the story of one or more squad members, allowing you to spend time with each one of them while piecing together the mystery of the game’s narrative, which is pretty engaging. As he navigates the city, he discovers clues that illuminate where they’ve been – and what happened while he was unconscious. Things quickly go sideways and The Rookie wakes up several hours later separated from the rest of his squad. The squad is dropped into New Mombasa with orders to go after the Covenant supercarrier holding position over the city. " Each clue leads to a new mission retelling the story of one or more squad members, allowing you to spend time with each one of them while piecing together the mystery of the game’s narrative, which is pretty engaging." Bungie tried the same thing in Reach, but it works better here just because you get to spend more time with your squad and their fates aren’t sealed before the game starts.
It’s a fairly memorable set of characters voiced by an all-star cast that includes Nathan Fillion, Alan Tudyk, Adam Baldwin, Nolan North, and Tricia Helfer and it’s fun watching a group of distinct characters play off of one another. Don’t worry, though the rest of the squad more than makes up for his silence. Like the Chief, The Rookie’s the strong silent type. You play as The Rookie, the newest member of a squad of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. Chronologically, the game takes place during Halo 2. If you’re playing ODST for the first time, you’re in for a treat.

And like Halo 3 and Reach before it, it has never appeared on PC until now. It’s still the one Halo game where you don’t play as a Spartan, and the only Halo game that features a hub world (at least until Halo Infinite drops sometime later next year). What started as a small passion project at Bungie eventually expanded into a full-fledged release.
