The other day as I went to bungie.net, I noticed that the header of site said "The tru7h, the whole tru7h, and no7hing but the tru7h"

and then shortly after, a new one that said "There will be a Payoff"

and now, "Bungie 1, world 0"
I think they're hinting on something

That's because of an event Bungie organized: a Matchmaking playlist where you could fight against Bungie (with a team). They won. End of story. :)

Hey, how do you light the dig site lights? They're already lit aren't they? I know they can be smashed.

I went to the Stonehenge near the bridge where there is a Jackal Sniper and where the line "What's with all the dead Elites?" can be heard. There were 2 dead Elites, a Covenant Carbine and the Stonehenge, which had Glyphs on all the obelisks and a sad face S.I image on one of them, someone earlier posted that this face could be moved when the obelisk was shot but shooting it doesn't work. All I found in the area was;

4-5 dead elites under bridge (one was red, all had Cov symbols on armour)
Glyphs around dead elites under bridge
"BELIEVE" written under bridge
2 dead elites near Stonehenge
Sad S.I on Stonehenge
Covenant Carbine near Stonehenge
3 (I think) Dig site lamps near Stonehenge

Not sure what this means, dead elites, a Stonehenge and the word "believe"
any help solving this puzzle would be awesome...the glyphs are all "Y" shapes pointing in different directions that don't seem to lead anywhere in particular. I tried following the ones on the Stonehenge but they lead to each other then point towards the floor...kinda pointless really

Bungie knows how to make something extremely secret, was this just to make people play the campaign more because people called it "Halo 2 all over again, such a disappointment"??? I like the campaign but I wish they'd give us more clues to this secret!!! According to Bungie in OXM something "unique" happens when you get all the audio files that isn't the weapon caches. I have them all and nothings happened that was unique in any way...unless it means that dumbass marine on Data Hive where he survives until he betrays you...and you shotgun him in the face...lol


BUNGIE...GIVE US MORE CLUES TO THE SECRET OF ODST!!!

lol, it will just be something weird and pointless and retarded...anyone seen the dancing guy on Kikowani Station? That was another "trademark" of a Halo game...all the things from the Halo games are missing:

Secret Dancing Bungie Employee - FOUND
Secret "Crazy" Marine - FOUND
Secret Elite - STILL HIDDEN
Secret Energy Sword - STILL HIDDEN
Secret Grunt - STILL HIDDEN

the marine is on the chapter "Uplift Reserve", the grunt and elite are usually on the LAST mission and I don't know about the energy sword...are the glyphs hiding the secret?

I hope that's not "the secret of ODST" what a diappointment that would be, "you wasted 3 hours researching glyphs, only to find a grunt telling you he is -blam!- scared of you!"

In Sect.0, on the tip of the map there is a bridge. if you go up the stairs there are some pay phones that have coins spewing out. if you go down the stairs and under the bridge, you will see a bunch of covie barricades. look to your left and there is the words BELIEVE written on the wall. continue left and there is a swarm of dead elite bodies, and tons of glyphs. At the end of the row is The Shipmaster's body, marked by the silver-white armor. His corpse is holding a Beam Rifle that has double ammo (goes from 100-95 or 100-90).

This is my theory.
If you take the sbr (shipmasters beam rifle) and the elites carbine at the stonehenge, i think something may happen. could someone test this for me? RROD took my box:(

That they surely will not do. Well, it would be nice, but did Bunige give any help in the founding of IWHBYD? No. So I'm pretty sure they won't rise a finger to help us.
Besides, it's lot more fun to do it yourself, right?
And remember, if you really wanna be a part solving this, join us in Secret Glyph Project Forum. Have an idea? Come and tell it staightly to us! Don't have anything, but you're still intrested? Hop in, fella!
What are you still waiting for? Come on!

Been playing since pong, and you?

I believe I have solved the Glyphs meaning. The empty Y glyph is found by dead elites. The empty Y Glyph at stone henge has a sad SI symbol on top. The sad SI stands for engineer Virgl or engineer right. The empty Y Glyph stands for Elite. The complete Glyph with all symbols stands for the Covenant. The 3 symbols in the complete Y glyph stand for BRUTE, JACKEL, and GRUNT. Y is Elite. The Y is empty because the Covenant is broken. Please offer your thoughts.

i've pretty much given up on this thread, no one is reading anything in the thread

pretty much everything said in the last 2 pages we've known since the start

its just kinda making me mad that no one bothers to see if their "master plans" have been discovered before

A quick reference to ODST discoveries is here.

Zero asked:

Yet another SGP resource: go here. This is all the "Y-Glyphs" on one page. Click each one to enter its photo album- there are multiple images for many of them. The entire SGP Gallery has 280 items currently, including everything from glyphs to maps to silly firefight images.

58 second win, rendered for your viewing needs.
This account name for Bungie: I wish I can change. -_-
I gotta remember to switch accounts for different posts or I'll be screwed.

I don't know if this has ever been found yet, but...

Isn't it odd how there's no S.I face? just pointing this out and I don't have enough time right now to read through the whole thread to see if this has been found, I think it's a unique Glyph or just a glitch...

We've spotted that, yeah...We have no explanation for it though.
Where is it located again?

in a area with engineers and just outside is a roundabout like thing with grunts on PC`s and a brute near them

Time to die.

If you really want to find these secrets set up a group of around 16 people, assign 4 people to a number, those groups look around for stuff and at the end we recap on it all and gather information, who knows? maybe something might occur?

Well this kind of organization has been long done. Secret Glyph Project, remember people?

  • 11.24.2009 9:28 AM PDT

Hey! Did someone mention the SGP?

Just so happens that today one of our members made a little easter egg discovery: the text "System Failure" was found in the Data Hive smack dab on the NMPD officer's visor. I don't believe it had been noticed before. Please correct me with a source link if I am mistaken.

The post- complete with links to images- is here. Congrats again, Scatcycle!

I have one or two educated guesses here. The Glyphs, are or could be the Covie symbol for 'Gods', 'Area searched' or that Bungie just merely putt it there to show that something important may lie ahead of the game. You can only see them with VISR mode.
