Subject: weird laughing on Backwash

Was playing on backwash yesterday while I was still able to connect and noticed weird whispers and a noticeable female laugh while I was playing. Has anyone else ever noticed that or was it something new that was added?

You can hear people close 2 u in da game even enimies so it was probably another player in the game

Maybe the webmaster is laughing at our attempt to keep Halo 2 Live and is really a female?

No I forgot to mention it was actually a custom game with me and a friend.

Weird... Maybe from him or your neighbers???

Was you playing on Xbox or 360? I never noticed any laughing, I remember when I first started halo 2 on my 360 is used to have texture issues with backwash, Did they ever fix that? I know they took that map out of the playlist because of that issue I believe.

Hmmm, the ghosts of Halo 2 laugh at our attempts to keep Halo 2 alive perhaps? Now they can scare everyone on Backwash when they're alone very easily.

It's all about teamwork. :)

Thank you for finally clearing that up, my eyes were bleeding by the time I got to the bottom.

Backwash is just a weird place to begin with. If u have ever been outside of the you will notice there is a message out there written in blood. It's been such a long time I can not recall what the message was.

That sound is the monitor of Installation 05.

2401 Pentient Tangent is his name.

Actually, 2401 Penitent Tangent is his name. You still beat me to it. I'll add this though:

He's invincible and he flies on a pre-determined course. Objects to not collide with him, he circles the central column structure of the map.

His appearance is non-canonical in the sense that he is in the clutches of the Gravemind, however this would have been his likely habitat as he is designed to monitor the installation and the Flood on it.

His appearance is sort of a throwback to 343 Guilty Spark, who you first find circling a column structure in the middle of a swamp.

He is voiced by John Michael Higgins.

He [me] is a tall, Nordic looking guy. He could pass as a Die Hard villain.

Or maybe it was 2401 Penitent Tangent... you know. The monitor that flies around that level.
