Played some Score Attack x2 yesterday. The assault rifle is awesome again.
A "DLC" option should definitely be added to the Psych Profile Preferences. I want to play some Noble maps in more than one playlist.

[QUOTE=New Cidem;28480516]Alright listen up cracker-barrels, its New Cidem back with more info on that creepy ass music.
[b]Check it:[/b]
This music sometimes plays in firefight, what you probably don't know is, this music often plays when the Mythic skull is active. 3/4 of the time, it will play. More info will be posted as I get arsed to discover it.[/QUOTE]
A music piece that plays on the level "Tip of the Spear" is pretty...off, too. When you get to the last section of the level(the area used for the multiplayer map Spire), the cutscene of your Falcon crash landing will play. When it hits the ground, some creepy music plays. The cutscene itself tops it off: you have a first person view at this point, and you are looking at the Falcon wreckage and the dead troopers. Jorge climbs out of the wreckage, and delivers a line with a disturbing voice: "Crew's dead, we shouldn't stay here." Just the way he says it sounds like he knew it was going to happen, like he's involved in some Government conspiracy, and he's leading you into a trap.
Here's a video:

Wow, I never even noticed that music.
Creepy.
I don't really find it creepy myself, although it does seem like it would fit better at some other part of the game though since it does seem pretty out of place at that specific moment. Maybe it does in fact appear at some other (more fitting) time too? I have a suspicion that it may possibly appear in the seemingly abandoned building where you get ambushed by drones in New Alexandria, at least that's where I can see it being most fitting. I might replay it later and listen more closely.
There are so many easter eggs... I bet there are tons that haven't even been discovered yet.
Well it doesn't play in the drone building, which is a bit of a shame. It would have fit awesomely in the part before you deactivate the jammer when everything is quiet.
Edit: Hey New Cidem, does this creepy firefight track of yours feature a heavy drum beat? There's a song that keeps coming up every now and then late in matches that I hear that sounds quite "beepy" but it's not very creepy (at least not to me) and has a very heavy, almost tribal sounding, drum beat to it. I was just wondering if that's the one you hear.
Edit: I just found out that the part that plays at the end of that Tip of the Spear cutscene is originally from Nightfall, so I guess that makes a bit more sense to have it there.

Also tomorrow I will try this firefight creepy music business aswell... It sounds rather... Interesting...
[editline]7th March 2011[/editline]
Also tomorrow, I will be glitching out of forge world trying to find other easter eggs.[/QUOTE]
I've already gotten out of Forge World, but couldn't find anything interesting. Granted, I was in theater, so if there's some sort of button or something similar, I would have missed it.
Also, for the first information on the creepy music, go to page four.
Now, could somebody who has heard this music tell me if it sounds anything similar to:

(Unsettling (at least to me), from Halo 2. Just has an extremely somber feel to it.)

All of these are pretty unsettling pieces of music from Halo 1/2.

Oh dear god. I forgot that after getting my HDD I could play original xbox games.
Currently playing Halo 2 and nostalgiaing like a mother bitch.

Mother fucker. Got up to the bit just before you get a gun and got a disc read error.

That plays when you jump into the coolant spillage of the cruiser "Truth and Reconciliation"
I'm still trying to remember that song similar to the 4th one, but it's when you're running from something iirc - possibly the flood.
Yeah, not much secret shit on Forge World... Haven't heard the music in that courtyard thing either.

I think (THINK) it's on... Quarantine Zone.
[editline]8th March 2011[/editline]
Halo wiki supports this theory
[quote]The song plays on the following levels: Outskirts and the level The Arbiter. It is mainly heard in the level Quarantine Zone. During Outskirts, it plays as you head down the dark hallway in the hotel, and during the short skirmish soon after. During The Arbiter it plays as you clear the hangar. It has some percussion as well as vocals as the lead. It is mostly electronic however, which helps add an eerie atmosphere, which may be a reference to the Flood. [/quote]
I hate the flood... Damn freaky shits they are. Fucking mutating everything and crap.

That sounds like it's from Metroid Prime.
The flood is... disturbing. The thought of the Gravemind brings up strange thoughts for me.

Glad I'm not the only one.
I've been discussing it with a friend - what if two were to exist on a single planet - or can they communicate between each other rather than between their spores etc.
Wonder what the next halo game is going to be like... Flood would probably still exist...
[QUOTE=ComboTroop;28498679]Wonder what the next halo game is going to be like... Flood would probably still exist...[/QUOTE]
Halo 3 left the flood really wide open, the gravemind we saw in H2+3 wasn't the only one so how does that mean wiping out the ones we know means they're completely gone?

I suspect the unknown planet, Chief and Cortana are floating to, could have another gravemind on there. Also the Flood didn't come from the Milky Way thus there is most likely tons more in their original galaxy they originated from.
Hey guys, I'm not sure but I think I found part of the fw Easter egg. I was making a map by the lagoon, then the warthog explosion sound went on and I saw a blue flash for a second on the mountains right behind the forerunner tower thing. I have no idea how to get past those barriers though.

You can use a Sender and receive Teleport barrier glitch to find that stuff out. But sounds rather weird about the warthog explosion and blue flash on the forerunner tower.

It wasn't on it. It was behind it on the mountain.
Also I'm going to search the teleporter glitch.
By the way if you go out of the coliseum and turn left you can see a mountain with faces in the distance.

Strange...I heard an explosion on that map when I was forging the other day, too. It wasn't the same sound the Forerunner tower makes, either.
So Jeremiah is adding some things for flag gametypes soon, like:
Creating a new CTF and Stockpile variant which makes you wear the flag on your back when you collect it, and you are able to drive vehicles and use weapons while carrying it.
He's also bringing back the "The enemy has the flag!" and "Your flag is away." messages at the bottom of the screen to CTF. They've been gone since Halo 3.
Anybody else get an email from Bungie regarding beta testing?

Were you offered a position? If so, you are super special.
If it was just a note that you COULD be chosen, that was in the Weekly Update.
I wonder what genre the game will be....they already confirmed that the MMO was a joke.

I thought they were made due to experiments performed by the forerunners, I read the wiki and it was something about inbreeding of household pets or something.

I am not sure, however they were not from the Milky Way. Also I've completed this week's LASO in 5 minutes using some tricks!
