i know that if anyone has already said this i'll get flamed, but I know FOR A FACT that at least some of the glyphs change with each play-through, or maybe just over time. I walked to the entrance of the building in which you find dare's helmet and along the wall with the door to enter the building, there were 5 or 6 glyphs. A few days later, there were only 2. neither time did any glyph have a superintendant face or anything significant like that, but it may be significant. Maybe the fact that some glyphs move indicates that they're irrelivant, that the ones that are in the same place every time are the important ones

I checked out that dumpster.

Noticed a few things.

When You play that part as Buck, the dumpster is already closed, and there are fewer elites.

When you go back, the dumpster is open, and there are more elites.

Plus, I got inside the dumpster, and no music played.

When I jumped out, this creepy music came on.

When I skipped the dumpster, I went to the back of the BELIEVE site and got a Beam Rifle. Then bonga music came on.

Hmmmm..... I wonder if the dumpster has anything to do with the glyphs? Is there anything in the dumpster?

DOES ANYONE HAVE THE HEX CODES FOR THE GAME SO WE CAN FINALLY SOLVE THIS EASTER EGG?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

Yes you can knock over most dumpsters. Try the other two in that area. As for the dumpster that the lid closes, it can be knocked over.

As for the glyphs, they do disappear and reappear. We're still working on how and why they do this.

Another note: District/section 3, in the south-east corner is another locked room, as well as a locked SI cache. No idea as of yet how to open either!

If youre being serious... (I can never really pick up sarcasm on the net anymore)

Heres what I did...

Started a game on Mombasa Streets, on easy, no skulls on. Went from drop pod to open the secret room, messed with the dumpster that closes it self, put two bullets into each elite in the back corner there. Went into the secret room , got a check point, then saved and quit. Reloaded the checkpoint, left the room, and went back to the dumpster and jumped in. Got my self out and decided to check out stonehenge. Went in and it was blank.

Walking through Micky's drop pod site has a tendancy to reset the glyphs. Also, game saves have had an effect on glyphs disappearing.

hmmm well I think the thing that would've triggered that would be jumping in the dumpster. I will try to repeat this because I have never heard of the stonehenge pillars not having glyphs on them. I've come to realize that you can't let the disappearances of the glyphs pass as coincidence. I don't know how they work but I can bet it's not random

We're getting somewhere! A photo in my file share, has been labled as a spoiler! It's a pic of an empty VRGL glyph, next to other various glyphs.

IT WORKED!!!!!! I got in the dumpster like you said and when I went to stonehenge the glyphs were GONE! Now going to find if anything changed in other stonehenge rooms!

Will somebody tell me where the Stonehenge room is?

  • 10.05.2009 11:07 PM PDT

http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/kotor/Group/GroupHome.aspx

Ok I need a response on this one! in the stonehenge room with mickeys drop pod are there normally palm tree trunks? because after the glyphs were erased I went to this room next and found 6 (same # of stonehenge pillars) tree trunks that look like palm trees. 2 of which were knocked sideways. I can't remember if these were here before.

EDIT: there were no leaves on these trees just the trunks

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

You guys are crazy.

I love it. Keep up the insane thinking.

And just remember, when you think you're being a lite crazy, or if you think, "oh Bungie wouldn't do that..."
Just think back to IWHBYD skull on H2 and H3... And think again.
No idea is too crazy when it comes to Bungie.

Wow, Bungie, another 7?

Has anyone ever tried legendary with the mythic skull on? Remember, Bungie always give people what they are searching for when they achieve the impossible.

Of course, The relics could be for the engineers...
