It's not a level in the actual game. Obviously there's going to be a level in "New Mombasa", but you won't find this exact sequence in the game.

Or so I've been told.

Probably 3rd. Maybe 4th.

I have a feeling that the announcement trailer was the 1st or 2nd. More likely the 2nd.

EDIT: The guy above me is right. There will be major changes. That was just the beginning of the level (that's what I think, anyway)

I don't think it will be the first. They'll probably explain how MC gets to earth... unless they do all of that in a cinematic. I'd like to play through it though. I'd say it's the second or third level.

First Strike explains how he gets to Earth, but they may try to refresh our memories with the opening cutscene.

i think the first level is on the ancient forrunner facilitys on the giant gas giant that halo is next to and he may still have his old armour (it says in the documentry that he went from halo to these facilities) and then when he gets to earth that it the first level on earth and he is being briefed on the pelican......... just a thought

They better explain it in the game, through a cutscene or playable. The majority of those that will play Halo 2 have not read the books.
