Unfortunately, it looks like the 'secret room' supposedly opened by looking at the glyphs in sector 6, appears to be nothing more than a loading error. This has been tested by a couple of us over at Secret Glyph Project.

dont waste your time like the people who found that halo 3 code showed a new skull and they think its under the platforms in level halo just move on there is no sword and if there is only bungie workers know where it is


Exactly! If they know where it is then we are going to find it.

You're right I see it too!

Now all we gotta do is find that place!

Is there anyway anyone can get a screen cap of that part of the VidDoc?

-edit-

I looked it up on YouTube and I dont know if that is a sword, to be honest. There arent any weapons on that rendering, not even turrets like in the other ones, I dont know why they would render a random sword on top of a box in the distance. It just looks like a reflection of whatever the glowing thing is to the right of that (possible shield door thing?)

I would hope that is a sword in this ViDoc video, but just have a look on the size, compared to the "case" (i don't know how you call those things in english) just near this light ; the sword would be huge !
Moreover, it's just on a "conceptual map" , not on the finished version, so ...

But, don't desperate, i've actually found a way to go on the roofs during "Kizingo Blvd" mission, and i'm still looking for a clue watching over and over this game in theater mode.
If there is at least one way where we can go through 2 invisible ceilings, there could be more, maybe during New Mombasa Streets mission ...

Tepec, French glitchers community is still looking for that Sword Legend.

that sword in that pic just might be further proof that there WERE swords in the game at one point but they took them out.

  • 10.06.2009 10:12 AM PDT

it might be, but knowing how sneaky bungie are, probably not, also, hasn't anyone thought that it might be on a firefight map somewhere?

  • 10.06.2009 10:19 AM PDT

I miss the days of Halo 2.

Idk why everyone is so hyped up about music playing when they look at glyphs, you hit checkpoints when standing at certain glyphs which unlock doors that you could usually never go into, but when you hit checkpoint there will almost always certainly have some soundtrack start playing. Oh and this picture of the energy sword you guys have looks nothing like a sword, and besides, its purple.

Actually, it could effectively be on a firefight map, but :
those Firefight "arenas" are in fact pieces of campaign maps, so, usually, when we found a secret room or an interesting glitch in campaign, we can do it also in Firefight on the equivalent map.
That's why we (glitchers i work with) proceed on campaign first, and then on firefight.
