Maybe not but heres what it is. My little brother was playing no less (with permission from my mom, don't worry) and he stumbled upon this glitch. It might be important, maybe not, to mention this is on easy.

It's on the Silent Cartographer. He brought the warthog down to the door and the doors locked of course. All the covies were dead, and he left the warthog parked right in front of the door almost as a blockade to the door (he was worried about the gold elite) then he ordered one of the marines to get out of the side seat. He then went to the other warthog found in the level and brought it to the room. Mind you has hasn't tried unlocking the door yet.

When he gets back, he remembers that his marine is not in the warthog so he leaves the second warthog on top of the ramp and gets into the first warthog to make the marine get in, so he won't get run over. Thats when he notices the marine doesn't do anything. So he moves the warthog a little to see if he'll get in then, and he accidently runs over the marine. The only thing is the marine doesn't die, infact the marine doesn't even get hurt! His gun flies out of his hand, but he continues standing there as if nothing had even happened. So there the marine is with no gun (mind you hes got his hands in the position of where the gun should be so he obviously doesn't 'know' his gun is gone).

Thats when I come in. It turns out the marine doesn't get hurt by anything, I wack him and shoot him and nothing happens, he doesn't even move. I can even walk right through him like he isn't there. When I throw a grenade onto him, he doesn't do anything, and the plasma grenade doesn't even detonate, it just sits there stuck to him. I then found a needler and proceeded to stick him until i was out of ammo, and the needles didn't detonate, just like the grenade, they just jut out of him like a pink, shiny sword.

Luckily it saved the game when he was driving down the tunnel, so i was able to experiment with different weapons and items and such. I just found out (he is still playing as I type this) that the marine is still there and still not getting hurt after you unlock the doors and return to the room. And the marine in the gunner who was unresponsive also, but could die, killed the gold elite during the cut scene of when the door was unlocked. One more thing, after

I don't have a video capture device for my Xbox, but I do have a cheap digital camera. I was able to take some (poor quality) pictures and I uploaded them to my website. It's also interesting that when I go back up the ramp, this glitch I gues you could say fixes itself, because everything is activated. Like when I stick him full of needles, they don't go off until I go back up the ramp, I think I got a picture of that too. I will try to recreate this incident later and tell you exactly how I did it if I can do it. Here is a link to the pictures:

Pictures of the glitch

Hopefully I am the first one to find this, if not oh well. At least I found it on my own and not off the internet.

Nice write-up. Now what's that Boy Scout motto? Be prepared?

Nothing new here. Look around halo.bungie.org inside their tricks and tips section. This is made mention. It's called marine Freezing ot unit Freezing. It's mainly a thing involving the loading zones.

It's great that you found this alone, but it has already been found.

Well, I don't have the money to be adequately prepared, but I'm just glad I have the money to get a cheap digital camera.

Oh well, I figured someone already found this. Is there anywhere else you can do it?

I did the same thing a few months ago. I was playing on heroic, so I parked a warthog out there so they'd shoot the gold elite when I came back up, but I screwed up and got the warthog stuck in the doorway. I used a grenade to get it out(killing one marine, knocking other out). I hopped in to let him back in when he just sat there. I got pissed and shot him and he didn't die. It was funny. I played around with it for a little while but then got bored and cut Xbox off.

sorry to shatter your hopes, but it is not new. It is the freeze glitch.

Ah, it's no big deal. At least no ones yelling at me for posting something thats already been posted a million times. I'd hate to be in that predicament.

its a common glitch in the game didn't read other posts so i don't know if you were told but you can get the marines and the worthog through the door as soon as marines come within a certain proximity the go um 'dormant' they won't re activate either it is a pointless glitch but there are ways to produce it on other levels too

Dude, what the hell does it matter what I look like? Why are you making personal attacks against me, did I do something to offend you?

Did you ever think I was posing for that picture to purposely make myself look ugly? My point is lay off my grill, home fry.

Now, we've already established this is old news, can we all just move on and not insult me anymore.

Don't start with the flaming, who cares what he looks like. If you want to make comments on him tell it to your friends or to yourself, he doesn't need to know if you want to insult him.
