Subject: Halo 3: Evil Auto Turret

The other day I decided to play through the Halo 3 campaign to warm myself up for Halo 4. As I approached the control room entrance on the last level I set down an auto turret to help me quell the oncoming waves of Flood. After I killed 343 and went back outside it started attacking me!!! I was playing on Heroic and the thing killed me in seconds. After a few deaths I decided to let Arbiter destroy it with his sword. I was wondering if it was a glitch or the auto turret is actually a mini sentinel that was mad for killing 343.

I love you

The auto turret is a Forerunner piece of technology/sentinal. So yes, that is why it also turned on you.

ok thats what I thought. Thanks.

I think that I should tell you that because those turrets are meant to deal great damage to the enemy if they shoot at you on easy then they will still almost insta kill you!

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

By God, he's right!

But then again, 343 may think of a completely different reason.

They probably have. Those turrets were obviously AI constructs of some sort. When 04b was lit and started to destroy the Ark Forerunner AI saw humanity as an enemy. All except 032 who sent you to Requiem.

And how would they know you destroyed the ark?

What a waste....

It's an interesting bit of trivia, but yes, as a Forerunner construct it will turn on you if you deploy before killing Spark.

Kinda off topic, but wasn't it implied in Primordium that there was more than one Ark Installation?

If so, that's one of the only useful things that book did for Canon.


Yes, the Greater Ark or "the Beginning Place" as called by the Forerunners, it was the one that built the first 12 rings, the ones that were 30,000km in diameter as opposed to the current 7 that are 10,000km in diameter.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

This. Also, I find it funny how ridiculously fast the turrets kill you, but they're worthless against regular enemies.

They turn on you after the Gravemind moment. It has nothing to do with killing Spark.

Spark likely set up countermeasures. Or he planned Johnson's death!!! Or any contact with Gravemind is a breach of protocol.

I like to think that Johnson's death was planned. It makes me hope that he'll return in H4, H5, and H6 (sarcasm).

Edit: well damn, I already replied to this a month ago.

The auto-turrets turning on you afterwards was a nice touch.
