Has anyone else noticed that the control panels on the the covenant cruiser look a lot like the ones on halo, like in the control room or the energy bridge. Maybe the forerunners were covies, thats why the covies knew that whatever was in halo was bad and were trying to stop the humans.

The covenant got their technology from the forerunners.

The Covenant believe the forerunners are their gods. I don't know what the symbols represent for them. All I know is when you see an Elite with one of those symbols on them the Covenant race refer to them as "the blessed ones." Maybe because they got lucky in a battle, who knows.

Does anyone know what the three symbols above that one door in the level where you first encounter the flood mean?

Probably... Danger. Flood in here.

Just kidding. But it probably is some type of warning or coarse.

I thought it might be some kind of forerunner language or writing or something like that.
