Look at the background in this screen:

Anybody have a guess as to what that blue thing is? Teleporter? Eye-candy? -CENSORED-?
Talk amongst yourselves.

i think that thing is a teleporter. but hasnt anyone noticed master chiefs mask or visor or what ever you want to call it looks like a screaming monkey. maby its a way to make him seem scarer to the covenent.if people think thats stupid then think about this putting a whiste onto a bomb. the bomb is scary already but the whistle ads pschycological warfare.

Sorry Bar just joking. It does look like a teleporter though.

I believe it's a GRAVLIFT like I read some stuff about in the UPDATES some time ago.

And there are no particles. These are holes from the projectiles.
BTW: someone noticed that the NEEDLER has an GRAPHICAL ERROR in it? Just look at those sticks on the top.

Hmm...a gravity lift sounds like a good guess to me. It kind of looks like it's in some kind of open shaft.

(hehehe...shaft)

The entire fleet is engaged Cortana, with respect what the hell sorta reinforcements have you got?

i saw a very simmiler blue glowing thinggy in the pic they used for "bent lama pwned" looks i think either deth drop hole or grav lift

Yeah, I didn't notice it before, but there's a magic needle in there.

Hey, wait a minute. Look at MC's left hand. Isn't it supposed to be holding the bottom of the needler. It looks like its inside the gun.

Your hands go in the needler, just like Halo: CE.

Really? I'll have to check now. I thought one hand was in and one held up the bottom. Either way, his hand looks weird in that screen.

To me it looks like a force field maybe the MC is protecting the switch to turn it off.

ok its not a teleporter or a gravlift(i think). I believe its just a blue energy field, like the ones on The Two Betrayals(The power generators)
