Subject: Accidental Image in the Demo Videos??

Its how we fall

Posted by: Karl2177
I remember Staten saying something like, "The clue is not necessary in the center of the beacon, you have to search around for it. This is where the VISR comes in handy."

I bet that the symbol is just the center of the beacon.

i like your theory, iots the most logical out of most here.
who knows what it is? only Bungie knows.
to find out we have 3 options
1. get a Bungie member to tell us (unlikely)
2. keep guessing randomly until someone happens upon it (possible)
and 3. wait until the release date and find out for your self (very likely)

I noticed it in the E3 Demo. I think it may point you towards clues.

If you ask me those symbols look like Forerunner glyphs, but i dont know. Nice Find

  • 06.12.2009 10:56 AM PDT

yes, i saw those symbols in the demos too. I wondered as to what they were but didnt take an increased interest in them. now that you posted pics and brought it to the public eye, I think it might be something more than a neat little symbol on the ground. In my opinion, they could possibly be forerunner or even covenant (since they derive much of their history and religious beliefs from the forerunner, their symbols are very similar). These symbols are slightly different though.The forerunner's symbols tend to be an interconnected pattern of circular lines, like those for the halos and also for Mendicant Bias. These symbols that we found in the recent demos have the inner symbols, but they dont connect to the outside circle at all. That connection between the inner symbols and the outside circle is a recurring trait in many forerunner and covenant sybols.

Here is a picture of the symbols found in the halo universe for you to compare for yourselves.

Enjoy

ODST for life

Even if it wasn't suppose to be in the Demo we have no clue what it could possibly be. Were just going to have to wait and see what they are.

There is a set of three symbols on the Guilty Spark level from Halo. The level where you first meet the flood.

they could be used to triangulate the position of the portal. possibly "dig here" marks?

Those symbols are just arrows that point you in your direction to the Flashback.

Do you know what kind of hat I'm wearing?

A party hat; you don't get one. An honor will this party be, a party in your honor, for your honor. Some of Tfear's personal guards are going to be there. You'll be introduced shortly.

Prepare to die.

maybe a preview of Halo 3: assassin
