Q I spotted an Easter Egg in the trailer after I watched it a few times. How do you explain that?


A The New Mombasa City Council had an incredibly efficient public works department until and even during the tragic and devastating Covenant invasion.



Could someone tell me what this easter egg is?

Grunt on sign post... grunt crossing... warning to remaing humans

that was in reference to the toppled sign at the beggining of the trailer - it has a grunt on it.

I'll give you a sign. There, I did.

There's talk of "Acknowledgment Lights" on the Chief's upper-right corner at the very beginning of the trailer ( :28, I believe), used by SPARTANs to acknowledge each other. But I think that is just a reflection of the lightning from the insane Ark-Vortex of doom in the foreground.

What we do in life, echoes in eternity.

yeah...i saw that too. After further review on that part, if you notice the detail, when that light flickers, its in the top left corner, and the chief's head is not moving so its cann't be a reflection of the sun made by the chiefs movement
A) it really is an acknowledgement light for other spartans
B) there is another object in/around the crater that makes the reflection
however, it blinks twice, and then we see the chief nod briefly before cortana goes into her "i know you, your past, your future"

also, right before the chief looks around to see the oncoming banshees, there is another light flickering in the middle of his helmet, so that is why im thinking that it is something in/around the crater

I dunno. Don't get your hopes up about there being other Spartans. You can argue and debate it to death, but its ultimately up to Bungie. The games and the books contradict in some ways, that doens't mean either is incorrect completely, just that Bungie has to make executive decisions. So, you can't really argue that they have to be inlcluded because they are in the books. Just wait for Bungie's word on it.

Smile, would ya, while we've still got something to smile about.

Has anyone spotted the birds on the trailer. Its at 1:25. When a banshee flies over the cliff a bunch of birds come flying out.
