    Hungarian, which is completely absurd given that ODST is an acronym based on English and that would be meaningless in Hungarian.

    It is the language of a 12 year old Halo fanboy. Only they can understand it.

    Um okay, I feel the need to put this out there. I'm half Hungarian and I speak the language fluently, and unless his speech is VERY slurred, its not Hungarian. 
     
    The only thing that sounds remotely right is that he says "lõjj" when they fire off the rounds. It's probably Romanian, Polish, or Czech, but I'd go with Polish most likely.

    Ehh people will often use the same acronyms across languages anyways.  We think RPG stands for rocket propelled grenade, for example.
     
    edit - It's actually a Russian abbreviation to be clear.
