Choot 'em

The .gif you made from the frames 343 used in the 10th terminal look to be the same frames 343 used in the gif on the xbox.com halo 4 page. Excellent work adam! I would love that source about Didact's "unbound state"! Thanks adam! Broke apart your gif adam and found a striking resemblence to frame 6 in your gif and frame 14 used on xbox.com....... frame 6 of your gif............ frame 14 on xbox.com....

Did a search as well, lol! Guess who's post showed up on the first page of the search! MINE!! from adam's thread. I already did a complete search on the numbers, attempting to input them as coordinates. Pretty interesting though, lol!

The only problem I have with this theory is I don't believe Didact/Bornstellar is the enemy. Didact's aggression towards humans had slowly subsided the more time he spent with Chakas and Riser. Heck, he even used Chakas' mind to build 343 Guilty Spark. We know the symbol is Forerunner, just nothing confirmed to who it belongs to or refers to yet. Hopefully 343 will give us a little more info on this in the near future.

I completely agree with your theories. Faber or Didact corrupted Both are logical but I just don't see Didact having a grudge against humans unless that part is explained in the next book. I do look for Mendicant Bias to return in the trilogy at some point possibly to aid the humans and Master Chief. All of his "shards" that were scattered are not accounted for. Great analysis P-1609!!

So the numbers must be in reference to the CEA terminals. - [044675.04.21.21.34.56] But what? Alot of people are assuming the enemy in H4 and this symbol is reference to the Didact but I don't think it is. The symbol is similar but it is upside down. Didact's symbol as seen in CEA terminal - The image in the gif and at the end of the trailer has the solid hex in the center and the line is on top. With that in mind, I believe whoever is on Requiem in the Cryptum is the complete opposite of Didact...... which tells me Faber. Just my opinion. Still in all, very interesting that 343 would embed the gif on the official Halo 4 page. I am still attempting to break apart the audio. It sounds like a distress call or someone attempting to contact the Infinity. Will post any findings.

Actually the numbers are 4657.04.21.21.34.56]. Here are a few clearer frames of the gif. Frame 2............ Frame 14............ Note the intricate Forerunner symbol in frame 14. So then we can assume that the unseen numbers here are "04". 044675.04.21.21.34.56] - same as the terminal Didn't these numbers also have something to do with the SIR thread as well? Drizzy Dan or adamj???

So I was going through alot of old Halo 4 news and information today when I noticed something rather peculiar when I went to www.xbox.com/halo4. It was something that had never caught my attention before and found it rather interesting. Now I know Halo 4 has been advertised on xbox.com for quite a while now but I don't recall anyone ever posting about this information. If someone already has, then I apologize in advance for the duplication. Image of www.xbox.com/halo4 I am assuming the background to be the deck of the UNSC Infinity. Notice the 4 monitors doing there usual maintenance (3 on the right and 1 on the left). I have highlighted the monitors. Now being displayed on the screens of these monitors are 4 different .gifs playing in a random order on each monitor. Now those are just normal .gifs that are inserted in the source code to be displayed for the web page. There is however a fifth .gif not embedded in the source code which is why I'm posting this topic. A rather peculiar .gif, if I might say. I have even gone to the lengths of breaking it apart and grabbing each individual frame below. To save room, I will post as a spoiler. The .gif consists of 64 frames so I just added one of the last few images of the forerunner symbol. Then there is the background audio. http://az204726.vo.msecnd.net/prod/audio/radio_infinity_levels_v03.mp3 I do realize that this information may have been brought to everyone's attention already but it has just come to my attention now. Please feel free to discuss the images.

Congratz on making an entire year Donut!! You will always be THE shoutbox king! How you could actually play Halo and type in the shoutbox simultaneously is beyond me, lmao. I wish you the best of luck in college and am very glad you will continue to frequent the forums. Thank you for the kind words. In return, I give you these..... "The Donut is a symbol of eternity....no beginning....no ending....(unless you take a big bite, lmao)....and forever rolling in the glaze!" To many more Donut! - Choot

My vote is in!! Very much looking forward to this one! I got a clip full of Penicillin to take care of that "Staff" infection! Time to Choot 'em up!!

Take your time and get it all sorted out Aza! Hope to see you back soon!

First member to have an announcement of a new baby! It's_a_girl!!!

Very well structured and well organized Mr. Bullet! I can tell you put quite a bit of thought and effort into this. Well done!

I had completely forgotten about this map, lol! I'm not real sure if it is up at Halowaypoint but if you would like to play it, click the above link then sign in to Bungie.net and click "copy to fileshare". It should be downloaded once you sign into Reach. Thanks for the interest D4RK R3V3AL!

..... *edited with more text below as to not get reported by Mystic, lmao* Seriously though, very good interview Drizzy! I really enjoy reading these as it gives us a little more insight with the user, instead of just what we read in posts and in the chatbox. Well done!

Lots of events happening here these days. Have been away too long. Must digest................ Thanks for the many, many updates AD!!

...and then you end up with 19 kids like me, lmao!

In the presence of Greatness we are..... Excellent interview Drizzy!! The questions you asked were perfect and the answers shed a lot of light for those who wanted to know! Thank you for conducting such a fine interview! To AD - You will always be considered a great friend! Remember to rest when needed! - Choot

Trust you to post a topic with information about Gears of War, lmao! Thanks Jester!

You dare question him as deity? I find THAT rather amusing and borderline disrespectful Viva! He is one of the most well respected members to have ever joined 343i.org. Bear that in mind.

Congratulations Dark! Your query has been somewhat answered! :up: :up: No other explanation is needed. - Choot

First and foremost..... CONGRATULATIONS!!! You have made it an entire year here! You have been here since the beginning Jester and have helped make this place a grand place to be. From your witty posts with the unique insight of the experienced gamer to the "hammer-down" tough mod that this place so desperately needs and everything in between. You have always taken the time to answer questions about the site no matter how mundane or simplistic they were, or moving topics that were wrongly placed out of impulse and not thought through. You have listened as a friend and understood the "lack of better judgement" decisions that I have made. It was at that point that I knew this site was truly different. You have brought personality to 343i.org and continue everday making it an easy decision to return frequently for updates. Being a fellow member of the staff was truly an honor, not because of the status but because you were a teammate. I haven't been around as much as I would like to be as of late but when I do drop by, I know you're there watching. Protecting this place from being tainted by trolls and spammers and always looking out for fellow members. I realise what you do here is mostly a thankless job but it deserves recognition for the sacrafices you make to invest your time here. So...... Continue being Jester and God Bless!! - Choot PS - Thanks for the mention.....and who knows.....maybe on some distant forum there is a Choot there, lmao!

Leave it to Twin to let the truth be told, lmao! We share the same views and opinions. Great interview Drizzy and an awesome choice for interviewee! Twinreaper....you rock brother! PS - I noticed the perpetual "wall of text" was kept down to a minimum Twin, lmao!

Happy Father's Day to all of the dad's in the community, and if you're not a dad then Happy Father's Day to your dad, lol!! Thanks for the topic Twin!! Not a zillion but enough to keep me busy, lmao!

Nice video trulyexclusive!! Watcher and Crawler look tough. Looked like a takedown assassination so i'm assuming they are back with a few new ones. Keep us posted!

.....my thoughts..... "Their final hour rapidly approaches the shrine will soon be ignited and they will be reminded of their errors." "Their" - could possibly be referring to Forerunners (for annihilatiing the Precursors) or Humans (for attempting to open the shrine, hince errors) "final hour rapidly approaches" - the ancient evil is upon us, soon he will come "the shrine will soon be ignited" - could refer to the door to the shrine being opened, but what is in the shrine?? The Ancient Evil?? What really throws me off within the text of these artifacts is the fact that Precursors deemed Forerunners "unworthy" to carry the mantle so they chose Humans instead. Forerunners kill Precursors, Forerunners kill Humans, Forerunners kill Forerunners (firing the Halo array). Will have to think on this a bit more. *frustrated* My head hurts, lmao!!
