| {{Article quote|Seek out surviving Marines and help them fight the Covenant.}}
| | This level begins on the morning of September 19, 2552. This level was beautifully designed, reflecting the Forerunner's love for beauty. This is the level where you'll take your first step on the breathtaking Halo. This is the level that really starts up the whole entire trilogy. |
|
| |
|
| '''Halo''' is the second [[campaign]] level in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. Set on the morning of [[2552#September|September 19, 2552]], it gives the player the first "on the ground" view of [[Installation 04]]. As the only survivor from the [[Bumblebee escape pod]] crash, [[John-117]] fights against the marauding Covenant forces, while searching for and rescuing other survivors from the ''Pillar of Autumn''. This is the first level in the game in which [[Kig-yar]] and [[Type-26 Banshee|Banshees]] are encountered. | | You'll navigate your way through ancient Forerunner structures, helping some lost Marines fight their way through to safety from the clutches of the Covenant. At the end of the level, your Marines, along with you, will be picked up by [[Echo 419]]. |
|
| |
|
| ==Transcript==
| | This is the first level in the game where [[Jackal|Jackals]] will be introduced as well as the first on Halo's surface. In addition, this is also the first of five levels in Halo: CE where the player will be able to use a [[Warthog]] LRV and the [[S2 AM Sniper Rifle]]. This will also be the last level where you will be assisted by the ''Autumn'''s crewmen. |

|
| ''If all of the Marines are dead:'' | | '''Marine, Sgt. Johnson or Cortana (radio):''' If you're not too busy, Foe Hammer, we could use a lift. We have survivors to transport to the [[Command Shuttle]]. |

The [[Master Chief]] and I are going to see if we can save some soldiers. |
|

| | '''[[Cortana]]:''' The [[Master Chief]] and [[Cortana|I]] need some backup, can you spare a few [[Marine|men]]? |

|
| |
|
| ''Or'' | | '''[[Cortana]]:''' This cave is not a natural formation. Someone built it, so it must lead somewhere. (Pause) I've hacked into the [[Covenant]] [[battlenet]]. [[Covenant|They]]'re actually broadcasting tactical data on unencrypted channels. We should show [[Covenant|them]] who they're dealing with. [[Master Chief]], [[Cortana|I]]'m going to use your [[MJOLNIR|suit]]'s transponder system to monitor their chatter. |
|

|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "Look, more lifeboats! They're coming in fast. If those lifeboats make it down, the Covenant are going to be right on top of them. (COM) Foehammer, we need you to disengage your [[M12 Light Reconnaissance Vehicle|Warthog]]. The Master Chief and I are going to see if we can save some soldiers."
| | ''(Cinematic: When [[Master Chief|you]] find the panel and engage it, you get a nice little cinematic of the giant silver beam-generating structures extending across the chasm, and an energy bridge slowly fading into existence)'' |
|
| |

| | '''[[Cortana]]:''' New traffic on the [[Covenant]] [[battlenet]]...a lot more crew made it off the [[Pillar Of Autumn|Autumn]] than [[Cortana|I]] had expected—the [[Captain Keyes|Captain]] must have really gave them hell! If we can find [[Captain Keyes]] and the [[Marine|other survivors]], we have a chance to coordinate an effective resistance. |

|
| |

| ''If the player walks away from the dropped Warthog towards the distant cave:'' | | '''[[Cortana]]:''' We read [[Foehammer|you]], [[Echo 419]]. We have [[Marine|survivors]] and need immediate dust-off. |

| | '''[[Foehammer|Foe Hammer]]:''' Roger, [[Cortana]]. On my way. [[Foehammer|I]]'ve spotted additional [[Bumblebee|lifeboats]] in your area. One near the cliff edge. And another near the head of the river. Hard to see from my altitude, but it looks like there are more [[Marine|survivors]]. |
|
| |
|
| ''If the player explores the area on foot or delays for more than five minutes:'' | | '''[[Cortana]]:''' Acknowledged. We're on our way. |

|
| ''The Chief's Warthog approaches a large cave structure.'' | | '''[[Cortana]]:''' There are some [[Marine|Marines]] hiding in the hills above the structure! |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "This cave is not a natural formation. [[Forerunner|Someone]] built it, so it must lead somewhere."
| | '''[[Marine]]:''' [[Master Chief|You]]'re a sight for sore eyes [[Master Chief|Chief]]. [[Marine|We]]'re in a bad way. [[Marine|We]] got wounded here. |
|

|
| ''After navigating the tunnels, the Chief emerges in a large cavern, with a chasm dividing the floor into two halves. There is no visible way to cross. Covenant forces occupy his side of the cavern. He kills all the Covenant present.'' | | '''Foe Hammer:''' Echo 419 to Cortana. Foe Hammer's on station and ready for another pickup. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "There must be some mechanism to cross this cavern. Look for a control panel or switch."
| | '''Cortana:''' Affirmative, Foe Hammer. We're ready for dustoff. Approach when ready. We're going to look for the last lifeboat, Echo 419. Good luck. |

| | '''Cortana:''' Warning. I've picked up reports that the Covenant have located and secured the Pillar of Autumn's crash site. The good news is the Captain's still alive. The bad news is that the Covenant have captured the entire surviving command crew. Let's hurry and find the final lifeboat, so we can link up with the rest of the survivors. |

| | == A Cruel Strategy == |
|
| |
|
| ''The Chief approaches the river head crash site.''
| | A recently discovered ingenious, though admittedly cruel strategy for beating this level has been discovered. When you get to the part where you must save the three groups of marines, you do not have to save them. If they all die, you can leave the battle early without having to kill all the Covenant. Killing a few marines is a lot easier than killing a huge horde of Covenant, so simply betraying all your marines then leaving each battle may help you out a lot. Be careful not to let the marines see you killing them, otherwise they will turn on you. You will only be able to skip two of the three battles using this strategy, so save the easiest battle for last. It is best to leave the battle with the hill for last so you can snipe all the Covenant or mow them down with your warthog turret easily. Hopefully the marines have not begun to shoot at you so you can join up with the final group and help them win the battle. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "There are some Marines, hiding in the hills above the structure."
| | == Trivia == |
|
| |
|
| ''The Chief makes his way up into the hills where the four live Marines are.''
| | *At the start of the level, occasionally one of the Banshees will crash-land, intact. However, you cannot enter. |
| | | *There is a [[Halo 3]] Level with the same name. |
| *'''Marine''': "You're a sight for sore eyes, Chief. We're in a bad way. We've got wounded here." | | *The pilot of the Bumblebee is the only Female (apart from Cortana) seen in the Game. |
| | | *If you have a Warthog near the Pelican at the end of the level, the Marines inside will mysteriously disappear. |
| *'''Cortana''': "I'll call in a dropship to pick them up."
| | *A dedicated Halo player made a site detailing a glitch found near the rockslide part of finding the marine escape pods where exploiting checkpoints to make 4 Spirits drop off a total of nearly 40 enemies back to back. It was called the Rockslide megabattle. |
| | | *Sergeant Johnson is one of the marines at the rock slide area. |
| ''The Chief defends the survivors from more waves of Covenant drop ships.''
| | *The beam in that is seen shooting up from the Forerunner base when rescuing the Marines in the building is used in ''[[Halo 2]]'' used to deactivate the firing of Delta Halo |

| |
| | |
| ''The Chief leaves the second lifeboat, searching for the third and the last lifeboat.''
| |
| | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Warning! I've picked up reports that the Covenant have located and secured the ''Pillar of Autumn's'' crash site. The good news is the Captain's still alive. The bad news is that the Covenant has captured the entire surviving command crew. Let's hurry and find the final lifeboat, so we can link up with the rest of the survivors."
| |
| | |
| ''The Chief approaches a lifeboat near the river. There are no bodies nearby.''

| |
| | |
| *'''Fitzgerald''': "What a mess! The weapons lockers must have broken open. There are weapons and supplies all over the place. Where's the bodies, though?"
| |
| | |
| ''The Chief crests a hill and sees a structure on the cliff's edge.''
| |

| ''If the player leaves the area before finding the survivors:''
| |
| | |
| *'''Cortana''': "We should search the interior of those structures before we leave."
| |
| | |
| ''The Chief locates a way into the structure, where he finds up to five Marines and naval crewmen battling the Covenant. He assists them in killing the Covenant forces.''
| |
| | |
| *'''Cortana''': "I've called for evac."
| |
| | |
| *'''Marine''': "Roger that. Marines! Assemble for evac, pronto!"
| |
| | |
| ''If all of the Marines and techs are killed:''
| |
| | |
| *'''Cortana''': ''(sadly)'' "We weren't able to save any of the Marines. A one hundred percent casualty rate."
| |
| | |
| ''or''
| |
| | |
| *'''Cortana''': "Dead. They're all dead. Get to the drop ship and let's get back to base."

| *'''Cortana''': "We should secure the area before the drop ship arrives."

| |

| *'''Cortana''': "New traffic on the Covenant battlenet. I've found Captain Keyes! He's being held on a Covenant [[Ket-pattern battlecruiser|cruiser]], the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'', a ship I disabled before we abandoned the ''Autumn''. The ''Truth and Reconciliation'' touched down on a desert plateau roughly three hundred kilometers up-spin."
| |

| |
| [[File:HCE BackToBack.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Promotional image of John and a Marine, back-to-back on an early version of the level.]]
| |
| {{Main|Development of Halo: Combat Evolved}}
| |
| Art Director [[Marcus Lehto]] led the art design of the campaign level ''Halo''. Lehto cited [[wikipedia:Snoqualmie Falls|Snoqualmie Falls]] in Seattle as a major inspiration for the level's natural landscape, especially the first waterfall upon exiting the lifeboat.{{Ref/Film|Id=ReachCommentary|[[Halo: Reach Legendary Edition|''Halo: Reach'' Legendary Edition]] Developer Commentary}} The second half of the level was inspired by the terrain seen in the [[Halo announcement trailer|MacWorld ''Halo'' announcement trailer]]. According to [[Paul Bertone]], the level design determined the direction for the game engine, which needed to support the wide-open terrain and high density of gameplay. Artist Chris Lee modelled the beam emitters seen throughout the level. Designer [[Jaime Griesemer]] was responsible for the level design.{{Ref/YouTube|Id=IGN|9ndZbg8Mr-Q|IGN|Halo: Combat Evolved Devs React to Speedrun (Martin O’Donnell, Marcus Lehto)}}
| |
| | |
| [[Jen Taylor]], the voice actress of Cortana, also voiced the lifeboat pilot at the beginning of the level.{{Ref/Film|Id=Commentary|[[Halo 3 Legendary Edition|''Halo 3'' Legendary Edition]], Halo: Combat Evolved developer commentary}}
| |
| | |
| Cortana's line "This cave is not a natural formation" is ridiculed by many members of [[Bungie]] and many fans due to its blatant obviousness.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=Commentary}} Originally, the cave to which Cortana refers looked natural, though Cortana could tell that it was not; due to time constraints, the cave was changed to look artificial near the end of the level's development, and the line was kept.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=ReachCommentary}} (Ultimately, the line would be ridiculous regardless of how the cave looked; since it was located on a clearly artificial megastructure, no geological features upon its surface would be natural.) The statement serves as the namesake of a chapter title in the ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' level ''[[The Package]]'', in which [[Noble Team]] retrieves a fragment of Cortana from a [[Babd Catha Forerunner complex|subterranean Forerunner complex]]. The dialogue would be referenced in other Microsoft games. In the ''[[Gearsofwar:Gears of War 2|Gears of War 2]]'' level ''Disturbing Revelations'', upon approaching a subterranean Locust structure, [[Gearsofwar:Dominic Santiago|Dominic Santiago]] says, "I think it's safe to say that's not a natural cave formation." In ''[[Wikipedia:Forza Horizon 4|Forza Horizon 4]]'', upon approaching a tunnel in the Pillar of Autumn showcase race, Cortana says, "This cave is not a natural formation."
| |
| | |
| In addition to introducing [[M. Fitzgerald]] as the Marine manning the Warthog dropped off by ''Echo 419'', the release of ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'' has also introduced two minor discrepancies into the canon:
| |
| *During the initial dialogue exchange with Foehammer, Cortana mentions a command shuttle to Foehammer, though the actual meeting point for the UNSC forces is [[Alpha Base (Installation 04)|Alpha Base]], though it is possible that she was referring to the command crew's lifeboat. | |
| *At the end of the level, Cortana says, "We should move out, Lieutenant", even though Carol Rawley is a captain. It is possible that she was talking to Rawley's copilot, [[Frye|Lieutenant Frye]], though this seems inconsistent with the rest of the game, as Cortana exclusively communicates with Captain Rawley aboard ''Echo 419''.
| |
| | |
| Designer Paul Bertone considered this level as the iconic ''Halo'' level which defined the sense of mystery and explorative feeling.{{Ref/Reuse|Id=IGN}} The environment of this level would be referenced in the later games. The environment of this level served as inspiration for the ''Halo 3'' multiplayer map ''[[Valhalla]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' map ''[[Forge World]]'', both of which featured similar terrains with beam emitters and waterfalls. ''Valhalla'' was also remade into ''[[Ragnarok]]'' in ''[[Halo 4]]''. Furthermore, the cliff edge section of this level was recreated as the [[Firefight]] map ''[[Installation 04 (map)|Installation 04]]'' in ''Halo: Reach'' ''[[Anniversary Map Pack]]''. In ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', the [[Forge]] canvas ''[[Alpine]]'' also featured a similar terrain. Justin Dinges, the Campaign Art Lead on ''[[Halo Infinite]]'', cited the [[wikipedia:Pacific Northwest|Pacific Northwest]] forest biome as an inspiration for the environment on [[Installation 07]], but noted the biome was chosen as "a deliberate ode to the past" in an allusion to the environment in this ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' level.{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/inside-infinite-february-2021|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Inside Infinite - February 2021}}

| | |
| ==Trivia==
| |
| ===Easter eggs===
| |
| *In ''Anniversary'', the [[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary skulls#Mythic skull|Mythic skull]] can be found behind the large boulder on the right of the waterfall. The [[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary skulls#Boom skull|Boom skull]] can be found on the top of the Forerunner tunnel's entrance.
| |
| *The [[Terminal (Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary)#The Terminals|second Terminal]] in ''Anniversary'' can be found in the Forerunner tunnel, at the end of a small alcove under the space that can only be cleared by a jump. | |
| | |
| ===Glitches===
| |
| *If the player stands under ''Echo 419'' when it lands near the cliff edge, the player will come up through the floor inside the Pelican. The player can then jump through the floor and walk around inside the troop bay, though he will die when the dropship flies away.
| |
| *All the Marines and Navy personnel rescued by ''Echo 419'' hold their arms as if they are carrying MA5Bs, even if they are armed with M6Ds or nothing at all.
| |
| *Although the Pelican has ten seats, only a total of six Marines will ever board it at a time. The others will stay outside and wander around.
| |
| *There is a rarely encountered glitch that causes the Marines at the hillside complex or the rock formation to not board the Pelican. However, the mission will still proceed as though they had.
| |
| *Often, at the first lifeboat after ''Echo 419'' comes in to pick up the survivors, at least one of the surviving crew members or marines will simply run into the Pelican and continue to move as if nothing's blocking his path, rather than boarding the Pelican properly as the other AI do. | |
| | |
| ===Mistakes===
| |
| *Johnson asks for volunteers to accompany the Chief, but sometimes he is the volunteer.
| |
| *Because the models for Johnson and [[Stacker]] are used for Marine sergeants in the game, in this level it is possible to have two Johnson or Stacker NPCs accompany the player in the Warthog.
| |
| *On this level the model used for the Halo ring in the far distance does not actually meet the terrain. If the player looks at the bottom of the ring, (where it should flow into the ground below the cliffs), the player can see the sky between the ring and the ground, indicating a gap. This can be best seen with the scope on the pistol or sniper rifle found on this level when climbing the hill next to the cliff edge structure.
| |
| *In the ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'' version of the previous level, John pulls a marine with a bandana into the Bumblebee. However, the bandana-wearing marine is nowhere to be found amongst the bodies of the escape pod wreckage.
| |
| *While protecting the Marines at the river head crash site, the first Spirit bumps into a cliff as it leaves the area.
| |
| *In both versions of the game, only seven bodies, including that of the pilot, are found inside the Bumblebee after the crash. In actuality, nine bodies should have been present. | |
| *On rare occasions, the "Search for last survivors" mission objective will repeatedly show up on the screen and flash. This is common if the player is playing on an Xbox 360.
| |
| | |
| ===References===
| |
| *The level in its entirety was recreated in the [[Halo Mash-Up: Minecraft Evolved]].{{Ref/Site|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/halo-mash-up-pack-available-now|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Halo Mash-Up Pack Available Now}}
| |
| | |
| ===Miscellaneous===
| |
| *If the player makes any Marines on board Echo 419 turn on him at the end, the player will not be able to board the Pelican until the Marines are all dead or when they start trusting him again.
| |
| *If the player goes elsewhere instead of boarding Echo 419 when the last group of Marines have been rescued, the cutscene will soon play regardless the player's location.
| |
| *If the player manages to carry out with the level without ever using a Warthog (including the one in the beginning of the level), some of the scripted dialogue and music cues such as the one triggered upon exiting the underground tunnel will not trigger. These instances can be noticed when trying to unlock the "How Pedestrian" achievement.
| |
| *If the player enters the structure near the cliff edge and jumps down the shaft that shoots blue energy straight up, or uses a flycam, they will see a blue ball hovering in air when reaching the bottom. This object is used in scripting to generate the energy pulse.
| |
| *In the structure near the cliff edge, inside the inner rooms, Marines may accidentally fall into the shaft when crossing the bridge and die.
| |
| *Sometimes, a Spirit dropship can be seen in cutscenes if the player did not go through where the Spirit lands and deploys troops during gameplay.
| |
| *If the player somehow gets on top of the cliffs during the first part of the level (departing the Bumblebee until entering the underground tunnels), there is a unique scripted trigger volume that activates called "gotohell", which disables all player input permanently, including opening the menu and leaving the game. This is the only area in the entire game that uses this method of preventing the player from escaping the level.{{Ref/File|Halo Editing Kit|Mission\Game data\Trigger volumes\gotohell}}
