We are determined that before the sun sets on this terrible struggle our flag will be recognized throughout the world as a symbol of freedom on the one hand and of overwhelming force on the other.

My favorite is 05, like aztec ruins I guess

Halo: Heretic or Hero---An Elite's Story
Choose your own destiny

Forged in the Flames of Passion, go forth and represent!

Either 05 or The Ark. Like the above post, I liked the terrain and architecture of 05. Very mysterious.

The Ark was just huge and awesome because it was a mix of pretty much every type of terrain.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

The one that had lunar landscape.

I like 04. Cortana says that square corridors aren't natural looking.

  • 12.05.2010 5:24 PM PDT

Escalators don't break, they just become stairs.

I like 00. it makes more halo rings and can fire all of them at once.

Interesting. The weather patterns here seem natural, not artificial. I wonder if the ring's environment systems are malfunctioning, or if the designers wanted the installation to have inclement weather.

Signatures are for squares.

05 is just so...interesting.

I want to explore 05 so much more, but we never get the chance to. I want to learn more about how the flood escaped. More about 2401.

Theres an entire story that goes with 05, and we only got to spend a couple of levels on it. It's been almost completely untouched in the novels as well.

Shame, really. 04 has so much information surrounding it, and then we get teased with Delta Halo for a few levels, and then it remains untouched.

Corn, Oil, and Wine... We need more wine...

04, it's where we started. I love it.

04 The mysterious ring word is just spectacular.

  • 12.05.2010 7:51 PM PDT

04, its terrain is just so beautiful, and so alien yet so familiar.

Also, blue beam towers >>> all those things in later titles pretending to be blue beam towers. YOUR PROFILE IS NOT THE HIH LOGO, FOOL!

i like bungie.net

i like installaion 04a as that is where it all started.

  • 12.05.2010 11:39 PM PDT

It would have to be 05, because of the terrain and structures. Although the Ark was pretty awesome as well.

  • 12.06.2010 12:09 AM PDT

The Ark, hands down. The array of strange architecture and rugged terrain lends a unique tone to the Installation. The constant travels between sandy desert, lush forest and crisp snow gave a new dynamic to the gameplay.

Saying that, Installation 05 embodied the mysterious tone of the Forerunners and for that, I still enjoy visiting it.

Oh hey there

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

Can we please not bring up the "How did the flood get released on installation 05?" topics again?

OT, Gonna have to go with the Ark. The accumulation of the Forerunners knowledge and Cortana and the Chief decided to destroy it. Whatevs.

Installation 04. It's the one we've seen the most of, and I prefer the landscapes compared to the more ruin like structures of 05.

  • 12.06.2010 12:19 PM PDT

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

This.

Though I'd be more inclined to like Installation 05 because it looked absolutely stunning. The quarantine zone showing the Library with the landscape ablaze was so visceral, as was the temples and shrines running across the massive lakes whilst riding on the gondola.

It felt very alien and abstract, much like 04.

Yes. I agree, installation 04 is by far my favorite.

Halo, the Silent Cartographer and AotCR/Two Betrayals had absolutely beautiful scenery.
