Okay, so maybe this isin't totally deserving of it's own topic but it's good now and then to break the boring tech. help that so scars this forum. SO anyways ripe from my recent view of REX in the Maw I decided to see really how dedicated the people at Gearbox are when it comes to porting an "original" campaign, though i have to admit that IS the one thing they did perfectly, campaign is sure great..lag-free..fun.
Anyways as all Halo experts and connosieurs (sp.?) know in 2003 there was an exhaustive search for a easter egg that was hinted at by a girlfriend of Jaime Griesemer, Griesemer aka Flawless Cowboy was working on the Halo 1 project as a level designer and unbeknownst to most people at Bungie he inserted a very complicated set of triggers in order to open the door where the invincible marines came out of, if you triggered the marines and were are able to reach the door they came out of, on legendary, then you would be able to see down a hall a heart of blood with an "M" written in bullet holes, while anyways this was not MEANT for anyone to see except Jaime's girlfriend but some dedicated Halo fans went and found it... and here we are today in Halo PC and guess what i found...
while it seems other people have tried:
The "Megg" WAS meant to be a private message, so it makes sense not to have it on PC. I tried it, and was disappointed not to find it. Then the god-marines found me and shot me.
heh, heh sorry me15.
anyways i think it had to be on Legendary, then in the cryo bay u have to get on one of those two sets of barrels and run around in a circle on the barrel for a bit, then run around the cryo bay a few times, then proceed to the bridge, trigger the invincible marines and somehow hope the door they came out is open even if you can make it that far, though i DID have to go at it for about 20min. i finally got in, at first i tried to run in right when they come out but what stopped me almost all the time was the marines blocking my way and me getting killed, trust me this is HARD< the marines on Legendary can kill you in about 5sec. with constant AR fire. and about half the time the door wasen't even open, so finally i made it in, and the marines don't follow you in this huge long hallway, and here it is:
da MEG
one weird thing was that they actually threw a grenade at me! I've never seen the invincible marines throw a nade, i was in the MEG hallway and one of them was like "clear out" and they threw a nade in the corner! ha. I DID think it would be harder to find the MEG so maybe Gearbox took away all the triggers and just put that on the map? but then again the door only opens sometimes, even still i think I'm going to try and get it on a different difficulty.
As well in a pic. of the MEG it seems a guy needed to put a flashlight on it it see it, but in Halo PC the whole hallway is totally illuminated *shrugs*.
anyways good luck in finding it for yourself, though it does require some patience.
