Im Swiss, but i live in China. My english is perfect because I've been to international schools my whole life. My goal is to work for the International Red Cross.

=) peace

This whole thread was a waste of your time...
and mine, since i read the whole thing..
The real reason that you are wrong is that ODST was built using the exact same engine as Halo 3. Therefore all the medals get moved over to halo 3 odst. But they didnt put a sword in anywhere. SO that medal just never gets used. Its that simple..

to the guy that posted that this is like the golden warthog;

maybe so, but certainly people said the same of the scarab gun

just cause one huge mystery didnt come through doesn't mean they all will fail.


also, bungie commented somewhere a while back saying that ODST's biggest eastegg will be in a cut scene and we should 'fiddle' our controllers...
anyone here think of any relations?


That has to do with the Legendary ending, after the credits. There are Youtube videos on this, if you care to see it. I'm not going to describe it here, in case someone hasn't finished the game yet and doesn't want to see spoilers.


aww, unfun D:

i thought i was helping lol

ah well. still gonna add my opinion here and there, but im tottally with this. i haven't been so into a conspiracey since the secret of sand trap. even then that had less likelyhood of exiting than this :D

The Easter Egg you are talking about is in the Prolouge, after the credits. If you move one of the sticks to the left, right near the end of the scene, you'll see Buck playing around with a monkey-man.

OMFG!!

OP please(!!!!!) add in the original post that this DOESNT disprove this, since most people are reading the OP then posting this thinking theyre the first to think of it.

its getting anoyying. soon 50% of this thread will be the same pointless post and it'll effectively kill it ><

(sorry for DP, this was annoying me lol)

So, I just thought of this, what if the Y symbols acted like the rings in H3 and you have to shoot or hit or do something to them in a certain order. Someone should map the locations of them around the city and the number of the symbols in that area. It could lead somewhere.

I might be adding something like that with my SV Garlic account, using this map.

Is there any specific reason you ordered the sectors the way you did?

  • 10.02.2009 6:21 PM PDT

Get over yourself - drink vodka!

The sectors are labeled properly.

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


Please don't tell us what to do with our time, thank you very much.

I personally believe that there is something hidden somewhere, whether it's a sword, another medal, or who knows what.


A hidden BR would be interesting.

Your 'logic' appears to be defeating itself.

I made a thread for this here.

And there has to be more easter eggs somewhere right? these weird "Y's" couldn't be there for no reason.

Is this what you do all day? Do you wake up in the morning, get up, and say - "Why is there a sword spree medal but no sword?" You need to get a hobby.

We do have a hobby, can you guess what its called?

Playing HALO!

  • 10.02.2009 7:02 PM PDT

Guys I have an idea!!!
Mabye if you press Y the same amount of times the stone structures appear, and then kill 3 engineers, you will get flaming recon and a br!!!! Mabye even a supply cache with a sword!!!
But I hope you do find out the other medals and if it's possible to get a sword...That would be cool. Good luck!!

new info that may help. I found a vid of a guy gettng out of tayari plaza (which is where the dead elites are) click and I seriously doubt Bungie would let it be this easy to get out if we weren't supposed to.

Love BTB ? www.ilovebtb.com

This thread is the most interesting one in all bungie.net forums !

If my suggestion could help (but i'm French, and my english is quite crap ... I hope you'll be able to understand what i mean)

There are "black districts" , where we normally cannot go trough. I found how to go into two of these "black areas" (just near "Uplift Reserve" beacon and more difficult on South West of "Kikowani Station" beacon), but there is no sword in these two. A mate found how to get in some secrets rooms , normally blocked by security doors which cannot be opened ... But we don't think we've found all of them, and i actually don't believe we could find one with a sword.

What i want to show to you is the fact that, when you start "Mombasa Streets" mission, you're "dropped" in a district just at the West of Tayari Plaza. What is interesting is the fact that this district become a "black area" when you finish any "beacon mission" and come again with the Rookie in Mombasa Streets. Why don't they want us to come back where we started the mission, district where we can find some Elites corpses if i don't say something stupid ?
Actually, we're working to go into this brand new "black area" to discover its secrets ... Maybe it's a new clue (but maybe not !)

Thank you for this thread SeasonedVeterans, i take the liberty to translate it in French and show it to my "glitchers" community, in order to work on the same point, with differents approaches that allow us to see more of this mystery !

I'll give you the answer of that strange district that become black when i'll find the way to go in (that's just a question of time).

Maybe some of the loading sequences will change it to a sword with energy.

The Ys mean to change your weapon when it is low/empty. LOL!!!
Great thread though. A sword would be pretty sweet.
