Don't have ODST and I'm missing 7 on 7, so three. I won't even wear the armor as a whole probably, I'll mix-and-match.

I care more about the achievements than the Recon Armour. For the record: 4. I need Annual and Deja Vu.

EDIT: And Endure. Maybe I only have 3 then...

I got the Lightswitch (50 XP in a playlist) and the 7 On The 7th ones.

I'm not really crazy about recon, although if someone wants my help getting some of the others (minus the ODST ones, cause I don't have it), I'm up for it.

Two points:

1) Original armor is the best

2) It's stupid to do this. Recon armor used to be really special, now because of this, not so much.

Oh well, they know it'll generate cash, so guess you can't blame them for doing what they know will work.

Because it makes a lot of sense to only let the armour be available to Bungie employees and the couple of thousand people (out of millions of players) who managed to do something cool or bizarre enough to get their attention. You're totally right, a company like Bungie that cares deeply for its entire community is allowing people to unlock Recon purely to drive sales, as if the fact that they released a game with Halo in the title wasn't going to shift eleventy bajillion copies by itself.

I'm working on getting all the ODST ones first, since they seem easier, and then I plan to move onto the Halo 3 ones. I only need six more :D
Really? Really? The original 4 Vidmaster achievements from Halo 3 are cake. Get 50 exp in a playlist? Have 7 exp in a playlist while playing on the 7th day of any month? Find some skulls?
Deja Vu is miles more challenging than Annual even with basically infinite rockets, and for the love of god don't go after Endure unless you have three other players from the same country. The lag is so terrible when playing ODST internationally that you're guaranteed to fail - or have the game actually time out and send you back to the lobby on the final wave, two hours of effort pissed away like so much used wine in a New York subway.

Now personally, I like the Recon armour, always have.
That said, I haven't played Halo 3 in over a year, so what poll option do I choose? :(

mm I don't think I'd wear Recon until it becomes decently common
but first I have to get it
haven't played Halo in a while, so I'm gonna need to grab 3 friends and get those intensive co-op achievements =.=

I honestly have no idea how many I have, erm, guess I'll vote for none. Recon armor doesn't even look good, I really don't see what the big deal is.

I have done 5/7 achievements.
And I want recon just because I like having all armor options open to me. Yeah, I'll probably wear it for like 2 weeks after I get it, but after that, EVERYONE will have it so I'll either go back to my regular Mark VI with EOD shoulders, or I'll just replace the helmet with CQB. And maybe the EOD shoulders.

I'm going to get Recon but I'm not going to wear it, Elites are way cooler. Well, maybe I'll wear it sometimes, like at LAN parties.

As of now I have the four Vidmasters from Halo 3, I haven't gotten the chance to play much ODST yet.

I've done all those in Halo 3, and one in ODST. I'm not too fussed about Recon. Sure, it'd be nice to have, but I don't see why people worship a cloud of zero's and one's.

Not to fussed about Recon, but I've had more fun doing vidmaster achievements than most others, and usually its because I feel like I've achieved something as opposed to just passing an ordinary milestone that I'd usually accomplish in a game.
