Okay, so can anyone tell me what the deal is with the assault rifle right on your left when you start Keyes (on Lengendary as far as I know, that's what I'm playing on right now anyways.) It won't budge, I've shot at it, meleed it, and tosses a plasma at it. Nothing! And I can't pick it up either. It standing up too, not flat like most weapons. Anyone know what this is about?

This should be in the library :)

But, yeah, that AR is really annoying. Why is it there?

So does anyone know what I'm talking about? Is there a reason it is there? If you don't know what I'm talking about start up the level Keyes on Legendary (maybe other difficuilties, I have no idea) and walk forward like two steps and look to your left. On the floor by the door there is an AR for no aparent reason at all.

Explain this to me... please?

And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.

It's obviously a glitch! I've tried to move it, pick it up, and melee the hell out of it, and it's just there for show.

Or it could just be an AR that's empty?

I don't think there would be such an obvois glitch. It has a reason to be there I think I just have no idea what reason or why.

And you can pick up empty weapons anyways. Look at how it's standing up. That isn't normal.

it might be a joke.. because if you try to discribe it to someone you might say "Keyes's gun is standind up". J/K!
edit: the gun IS out of amo.. it says so on its built in amo counter.. also the gun cant be picked up by flood or covenent either (i got out my modded xbox to see if any other charecters can use it).

Weird. It just seems to obvious to be a glitch. I mean it isn't like some wall that is miscoloured, it's right on the freakin floor.

It must have been welded by plasma or something.

Has anybody tried looking in the direction it's pointing? I'd look, but I let my friend borrow my copy of HALO. It was getting boring playing by myself, so I decided to be a good fan and share the joy that is HALO!!!

Jeez i mean its only an Assault rifle man. if it were some place else lying down...you wouldnt even bother looking at it. Anyways i haven't got up to that part yet so i reckon ill be just as curios as you...try shooting at it with a RL if you can find one...maybe it will open up a secret door or something.

Maybe they just needed some wreckage and chose a bad piece of it
I mean it's kinda like something that's just there.

If you look closely, it has 60 bullets in it.

It's pointing the the direction you're supposed to go. It's probably just a glitch or maybe something Bungie put there just to torture us because they knew we'd over-analyze it.

Obviously, if you can't interact with it, then it isn't really there. It must just be a decoration.

I could just imagine taking a girl through your room with that thing. Here's my assault rifle that I welded to the floor. And if you follow me, I'll show you my pink Rocket Launcher. ;-)

Might be point to the room with the invisibility power up.

  • 06.24.2004 10:14 PM PDT

bah

Heh, did you know that the MC has an assult rifle for EVERY CUTSCENE IN THE GAME? (Besides the ones with no weapons.) I'll bet they stash the rifles somewhere then they warp to the MC's hands during the cutscene.

Either that or that's how they MADE the cutscenes.

This isn't the only level with empty weapons lying about that you can't pick up... If you notice on The Maw, just after you leave the bridge, you enter a room completely littered with assault rifles, all of which seem to follow the same characteristics as our 'phantom' rifle.
