Halo 2 for Life!

Bump? Na your just adding content.
Posted by: Grumpy1
Sorry about the bump but I just discovered how to do a super long swordfly accross the Metropolis bridge, and then some. It's an experimental vid because there is something else I want to do and this leads up to it.

If you are not Italian and at least 30 years old, turn off the sound or listen at your own risk.

I Retired Gears of War 2, Sold it to buy Halo 3. And I have not had this much fun playing Video Games in a long time :)
Now that Halo Reach is out. My life has never been better.
Thanks Bungie.

cool.

After watching a vid made by LDG (of HIH) I got inspired to get down under the Regret lift and explore.

Out of Regret Lift

What I hope to do is launch out of the water and there's a secret room in a pyramid down there that I hope to find.

Real easy glitching

Updated: This thread is for MP and CMP.

There are amazing places to go and things to do in Halo 2 so I wanted to provide YouTube tutorials for people who have never explored. Most are places you can simply drive to.

All that is needed is Sputnik.

Campaign:

Out of Regret Lift; Real easy way to get out and explore.

Armory (Short)

Armory Full Tutorial

Armory; This is a little bit harder but no skill needed, just a little setup time and you'll be outside walking around the space station.

Cairo Station; Explore all of the outside area with one simple grenade jump.

Outskirts; Explore all the rooftops and the water map.

Metropolis; Explore the rooftop on either end of the bridge. Use Wraiths as a ramp to drive up.

Delta Halo Lots of places to drive up and you can drive down into the lakes.

Quarantine Zone; Explore 3 different maps. Just drive up or use a Scorpion as a ramp.

Quarantine Zone Flood Cave; Hard to explain this one.

Quarantine Zone Lightbridge; Ever wonder what it would be like to walk around in the gigantic room where you first see the Human Gondola?

Quarantine Zone Secret World; Walk to a crazy secret map right in the middle of the Gondola tunnel.

Quarantine Zone Bulldozer This one is fun, push the Phantom just about anywhere with a Wraith. This is a Bungie Media file so zoom to 200 to watch better.

Uprising Drive a Spectre all over the top of Uprising.

Getting out of Containment

Getting out of Zanzibar

Getting out of the map on Waterworks

Getting out of map of Sanctuary


Easter Egg Stuff

Metropolis Banshee Scarab Gun This is the easiest way to get the Banshee to the Scarab gun. This vid is 10 min but it is realtime so in 10 minutes the Scarab gun is yours:
Make a Profile
Start Metropolis and grab a Ghost
Race through without firing a shot
Stop at the tunnel and lure the Banshee
Don't harm the Banshee's wings
Tuck the left wing into the little tunnel
Board the Banshee without worrying about the loading zone timing
Done deal in 10 minutes

Have fun exploring!

Special thanks to:

Mac Gun pressure launch:

This is a crazy thing to do in campaign and I tried to recreate it but it was taking me forever to push a box over their because you cant wack it you can only run into the boxes.

Use the little generator thing like I do, I push it pretty fast that way. The important thing to remember is put the one box in the center of the door and for the depth, I put one end of the box about 3 rows of dots (floor) into the elevatorof.

Although xlax007 is the best all around tricker of them all (imo) it was a guy named SRL who came up with the method and the only guy to actually land on top. One of the greatest tricking vids I've ever seen.

Amazing what a guy can do with mods, eh?

The area he was in is pretty cool though, a good place to explore. If you launch a Hog up but you stay down in that area, the Hog will freeze in mid-air.

Why don't you post your Halo 2 Campaign adventures, on youtube, here?

I dont think the moderators care if you post new content in a thread. Even if you don't want to post it within the thread you can post it on old posts or on OP. Although this might take time... more people would probably post in this thread and keep it alive.

You mean post all the harder tricks too?

It's a suggestion but you can do it anyway you would like (it could take alot of time to organize and link them to this thread).

I think there pretty good, like your latest one:

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

I've always loved the end of Delta Halo when you're supposed to head into the Temple, but instead use Sputnik to jump over it and walk into the next level.

Found this site with a list of Easter Eggs. I think we all know of them but it's a pretty good list.

The soccer ball....it most certainly does exist. It's more fun if you use the Banshee.

Halo 2 for Life!

I'm sorry if I sound like a noob when I talk about these things. I played to much multi-player and not enough campaign I guess, also I had a stright forward apporch to campaign (basically either run like mad or kill things) which didn't help with finding skulls (I've found zero to this day lol). Going to use your guides though the next time I play campaign, which might be in a few months. Thx for your response to my question.

Halo 2 for Life!

I think these are mostly Easter eggs not glitches. Although I guess eater eggs can be glitches or you need to glitch to get to them but I still think it's best to call them Easter eggs.

Games I like:,
Half-Minute Hero
MBU
Portal
Halo 3 is the best Halo ever
Maps I like: Turf, Avalanche, Pylon, Sandbox, Breakpoint and many more.

I'm not sure if anyone found this before me, but on sacred icon where the marines get infected there's a BR down the hole. Easy way to get down too. Also hiw to get down to the floor of sacred icon when your on the gondala ride. If it's true I found these, I'll tell you how to do it. If I didn't find it, then you'll find it on the Internet somewhere.

  • 02.15.2011 10:54 PM PDT

Down what hole on SI?

Yeah, there's another one I forgot to put in. You can get down either side but I go down on the far side (where the Enforcer spawns). I hop over to the beams and get down there. Which side did you go down?

Getting to the bottom of the second Sacred Icon canyon (Green door) is a little harder, you have to ride a Sentinel down.

You know where you see tge marines fighting flood? Well there's these two windows and pillars on both sides. You can use those pillars to get to the bottom, and there's a br, some electrical doo-daa and lots of fog. The only way back up Is to grenade jump or revert. I also used far side, soni can see what I'm doing better.

Hey, you're pretty good at exploring. Not many have been to the bottom of that pit. If you nade across that pit quick enough you can save the Marines over there. I was only able to save one but the ungrateful wretch shot at me.

Nice job exploring pal, you've got a tricker's heart. You should visit highimpacthalo.org, it's a tricking site where I publish my vids. HIH was mentioned in the H3 credits so you know nobody from that website mods because Bungie would not support a modding community.
