| '''Halo'''<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/Stats/GameStatsCampaignHalo3.aspx?gameid=21687 '''Bungie.net''': ''Halo 3 Game Details'']</ref> is the tenth and final [[Campaign]] mission of ''[[Halo 3]]''.
| |
|
| |
| Upon completing it on [[Normal]] or higher, the player unlocks the [[Return]] achievement. If the player gets 15,000 points or more in the meta game, they will unlock the [[Reclaimer (Achievement)|Reclaimer]] achievement. This level is also the second level in the ''Halo'' series to bear the name of another level, following the [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|second level]] of the [[Halo: Combat Evolved|first game]].
| |
|
| |
| ==Summary==
| |
| [[John-117]], [[Thel 'Vadam]] and [[Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]] make their way towards the [[Control Room]] in order to activate the ring using the [[Activation Index|Index]] from the first [[Installation 04|Halo]] encountered. However, the [[Gravemind]] sends [[Flood]] [[Flood combat form|combat forms]] (and later [[Flood pure form|pure forms]]), carried by [[Flood dispersal pod]]s, to try to stop them. After holding outside the Control Room for a while, [[343 Guilty Spark]] opens the door and they reach the Control Room. When Spark realizes that they are going to activate the unfinished Halo, which will destroy the Ark and the new installation, he fatally injures Johnson, who was activating the ring. The monitor then locks the Arbiter out of the Control Room and corners John-117. Just as Spark is about to kill the [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartan-II]], Johnson, barely alive, fires his Spartan Laser and damages the monitor. He then hands the weapon to John-117 and faints. The Chief, after firing three shots at the Monitor, finally kills the [[rampancy|rampant]] AI unit. He then says farewell to Johnson who dies from his injuries, and activates the ring with Cortana. Outside the Control Room, the Chief and the Arbiter battle their way to Johnson's Warthog and race their way to the {{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}}. After entering the frigate, the Arbiter heads to the bridge while the Chief uploads Cortana to a [[holotank]], and she proceeds to fire up the frigate's engines. The Master Chief, stuck in the cargo bay as they enter the portal, relaxes as the Halo fires and then explodes, killing the [[Gravemind]] and the Flood upon the Ark.
| |
|
| |
| In March 2553, Lord Hood delivers a speech commemorating the fallen combatants of the battle, and reveals that the Chief, with Cortana in his helmet, did not return to Earth with the front half of the ''Forward Unto Dawn''. As a result, the Master Chief has been officially declared [[missing in action]], though both Lord Hood and the Arbiter, the only Sangheili present at the memorial, express doubt over the Chief's presumed death. Lord Hood, though unable to forgive the Arbiter for what his species did to humanity, shakes hands with his former enemy and thanks him for standing by the Master Chief until the end. 'Vadam then leaves for Sanghelios with Rtas 'Vadum on board the ''[[Shadow of Intent]]'' to ensure that [[Sanghelios|their own world]] is safe.
| |
|
| |
| In a post-credits scene, it's revealed that the Master Chief survived but is trapped in the rear half of the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' which was dropped out into unknown space when the [[Portal at Voi]] shut down from the damage caused when the Halo fired and "did a number on the Ark." Much like after their victory at the first Halo ring, Cortana lists their accomplishments - stopping the Covenant and the [[Prophet of Truth]] and the Flood - and believes that they are finished. This time, the Master Chief agrees with Cortana that their work is finished. The Chief uploads Cortana to another holo tank and she promises to drop a [[distress beacon]], but warns that it could possibly be years before anyone finds and rescues them. The Master Chief goes into cryosleep to await rescue, ordering Cortana to "[[Halo 4|wake me. When you need me]]."
| |
|
| |
| On Legendary difficulty, the rear half of the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' is shown drifting towards an [[Requiem|unknown planet]].

| | ==Plot== |
| | {{Spoiler}} |
| | After making it to the Installation near the Ark on a UNSC Frigate, Johnson, [[Master Chief]] and the [[Arbiter (Character)|Arbiter]] attempt to activate the ring using the Index from Alpha Halo. 343 Guilty Spark resists, killing Johnson and is destroyed by Master Chief and the Arbiter, who then activate the ring. What follows is an extended Warthog race back to the ship, in reference to [[The Maw]]. Cortana is uploaded to the frigate and guides it out towards the slipspace portal located above the Ark. Due to the incomplete nature of the Installation, the firing mechanism destroys both that Halo and the Ark. Only the front half the ship makes it through the portal, with the Arbiter in tow; the other half is floating somewhere in deep space with Master Chief and Cortana. Cortana sends out a tracking beacon, while Master Chief puts himself in a cryogenic chamber, the same type he emerged from in the beginning of the first game. |
| | Back on Earth, in March of 2553, a monument is dedicated to the war and all those who perished in it. The Arbiter pledges his friendship with humanity before leaving the system with the remnants of the Covenant fleet. The cutscene ends showing "117" carved into the memorial. |
|
| |
|
| *'''343 Guilty Spark''': "Think of you-ou-ou-our [[Forerunner|forefathers]]!"
| | After the credits, Master Chief is seen, still alive, on the back end of the ship because it didn't make it through the portal. Cortana sends out a signal and says it could be years before they on found. Master Chief then puts himself in a cryotube to await rescue. |
|
| |
|
| ''Following the second shot, Spark's casing becomes distorted, with pieces of him sheared off completely. More plasma leaks from his sides and the sparks happen more ferociously. The right side of his 'eye' has broken off. Once again, the following sentences are said in a random order.''
| | In the Legendary ending, the part of the ship Master Chief is on is seen drifting towards a shield world. |

|
| *'''John-117''': "What happened?"
| | == Walkthrough == |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "I'm not sure. When Halo fired, it shook itself to pieces. Did a number on the Ark. [[Portal at Voi|The Portal]] couldn't sustain itself. We made it through just as it collapsed."
| | Congratulations--you've reached the end of [[Halo 3]]. The [[Halo]]'s lovely, dark, and deep, but you've got promises to keep--and miles of [[Flood]] until you sleep. |
|
| |
|
| ''The Chief reaches the end of the hallway, which opens up into empty space. The ''Forward Unto Dawn'' is revealed to be sheared in half, floating in a cloud of its own debris, still red-hot from the sudden slipspace slowdown.'' | | When the level starts, simply follow the corridor until you reach the installation. It's here that [[Gravemind]] starts his final offensive, air-dropping Flood units on you. If you're hurting for ammo after the last level, take out any armed Flood first and cut them down. Depending on your skill and the difficulty level, try stocking up on a [[Gravity Hammer]], [[Energy Sword]], or even a [[Brute Shot]]--anything with a strong [[melee]] attack. There's lots of Flood and only so much ammo you can scavenge. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "Well... some of us made it."
| | Wind your way up the Citadel as [[Cortana]] instructs you to do. You can run straight ahead and let the [[Arbiter]] (or your friends) deal with the Flood, but it helps to do your part and cut down their numbers. At least you won't have as many monsters at your back. The way up to the next level of the citadel is always at the opposite end of where you first climb up, so you're in for a lot of action. |
|
| |
|
| ''The ''Forward Unto Dawn's'' remaining half continues to drift aimlessly in unknown space.'' | | When you hit the top of the fortress, you'll hear from 343 Guilty Spark that he won't open the door until all the Flood attacking you are destroyed--security, you see--so be ready to go on the defensive. In single player mode, give the Arbiter plenty of room to do his thing and do your part in killing some Flood. A good strategy for dealing with the tides of Flood is to melee any Flood-form you see in the midst of resurrecting or upgrading; it'll prevent them from getting back up, and, if you hit them bad enough, it'll shatter their corpse, rendering it useless for reanimation. If you have any incendiary [[grenades]], use them to burn away corpses. Another way to ease the pressure being put on you is to take the two Auto Turrets that are conveniently placed right in front of the door. Pick them up and activate them in approximately the same place they were laying, facing the Flood opposition, of course. |
|
| |
|
| ''The Chief begins to drift further inside the ship, finding a row of [[cryo chamber|cryotubes]] complete with a holotank to plug Cortana into.''
| | After clearing the infestation, you have a few moments to calm down and breathe. Follow Guilty Spark into the control room, watch the cinematic, and prepare for what could be considered the only boss in Halo 3: [[343 Guilty Spark]]. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "But you did it. [[Prophet of Truth|Truth]] and the [[Covenant]], the [[Flood]]..."
| | Guilty Spark has two main combat modes: one is a massive spherical shield that pushes you back and protects him from harm, and the other is a massive energy beam. Play defensive--even without that shield, Guilty Spark's mighty construction keeps him from harm. When [[Johnson]] blasts him with the [[Spartan laser]], switch over to the [[weapon]] you can most easily give up and take the laser from Johnson. Time to take your revenge. Guilty Spark is just the right size to fit into the reticle of your non-linear [[rifle]]--convenient! That beam can smash you good if you get hit, so stay defensive. Blast 343 to defeat him... and get ready to run. |
|
| |
|
| ''The Chief plugs Cortana's data chip into the holotank and she appears.'' | | First things first: be ready to alternate between shooting and running. You should be doing more running than shooting, as there are waves of Flood coming your way. When you blast your way to the exit, turn ''right''. Be careful though, if you set up those Auto Turrets, they are now against you and will shoot at you so take them out as you leave. Take the ice bridge directly to the right of the entrance and follow it to a cave. Work your way down, ping whatever Flood you can--remember, you're almost at the end, now's not the time to die--and hop a ride in the [[Warthog]] at the end of the tunnel. |
|
| |
|
| *'''Cortana''': "It's finished."
| | Escape is, to say the least, tricky. Trust in the [[Arbiter]] (or your multiplayer pals) to shoot any oncoming Flood, and ''watch where you're driving.'' I can't emphasize this enough--Halo is in the middle of shaking itself to pieces. When you see an explosion, ''stay away from where it was.'' Those panels are gone now, and the only thing underneath them is death by falling. Keep your cool and watch for where the ground is solid. You'll only find Flood in straightaways, so feel free to pound on the gas and dodge the falling debris. |
|
| |
|
| ''The Master Chief turns off the flashlight on his helmet.'' | | You'll eventually reach a series of roundabouts. Follow the red-brick road to find the path off of 'em before they get blown off their hinges and plummet to the Ark below, taking you with them. You'll reach the end of the path eventually--when you see the ship over in the distance, you'll know you're near the end. When you finally see the freighter pull in front of you, go straight and fast and take the jump. |
|
| |
|
| *'''John-117''': "It's finished."
| | Watch the ending, stay for the credits--and hit the next level of difficulty! Halo 3 is short, but sweet, and there's always one more challenge over the hill. |

| |
| ===Glitches===
| |
| {{Main|Glitches}}
| |
| *When the Flood first start to arrive in the Dispersal Pods, do not attack any of them. Exit the cave area and take a right hugging the wall for a second. After a rock and a bit of structure one will be able to climb the hill and back up to the cliff face near the terminal entrance. Enter the small building and hang around the terminal for a minute, then exit and jump back down the cliff like one would normally. More Dispersal Pods will land, doubling all Flood encounters. It seems to be an AI Respawn Glitch. Its effects stop after Johnson dies and only for the Flood. Numbers change with difficulty.
| |
| *It is possible to kill Johnson and grab an infinite ammo Spartan Laser. The player must kill him the first time and take his low-ammo laser, switching it for a weapon Johnson can't pick up. He will stand up again with another Spartan Laser, and killing him again will allow this player to obtain it. This is handy to leave outside the control room door, because it is very effective against Sentinels and Flood alike. However, after killing Johnson multiple times (betrayal amount depends on the difficulty), the player will be marked as a [[Treason|traitor]] and Johnson will try to kill him/her.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zk_zebv0-sk '''YouTube''': ''Johnson's Spartan Laser Glitch'']</ref>
| |
| *If one kills Johnson before entering the Control Room, after killing 343 Guilty Spark, when the door opens, one can see Johnson on the floor wounded and a Flood [[Pod infector]] will convert him into a [[Flood combat form|Combat Form]]. If the Pod infectors are killed before they do so, he will get up and fight with the player, though he won't leave the building (since he's supposed to be dead, he has no scripted path to follow); if one tries pushing him out the door he will automatically run back. Still, if one somehow manages to push him until the Warthog, he will come within the Hog, but during the ending cutscene Johnson is not in the Warthog for obvious reasons.
| |
| *If the player deploys an Auto-Turret after the Gravemind moment, the Auto-Turret will become an enemy. If the player deploys it facing the blast door, the one before fighting 343 Guilty Spark, and get killed while simultaneously triggering the cutscene, one will see two Master Chiefs, one dead and one alive. If the player does this on Co-op, after the cutscene, the Master Chief player will be unable to fight and Guilty Spark will target the Arbiter instead. Also, the Auto-Turret is capable of taking down the Arbiter's shield in the cutscene and will occasionally attack the Arbiter, Johnson, and/or Master Chief in the cutscene.
| |
| *If one uses the aforementioned glitch for the infinite ammo Spartan Laser, one can kill the Arbiter and make him pick it up. If one does this near the end before getting on a vehicle, the Arbiter will pick it up and run towards the Control Room. He will stand there and not get in the Warthog or Mongoose.
| |
| *A series of Cortana's dialogue during the Warthog Run ("Drive, Chief. Head for the frigate" to "Hurry, Chief! Don't stop!") may not play when the player plays the level from Mission Start.
| |
|
| |
| ===Mistakes===
| |
| *At the beginning of the level, Thel 'Vadam passes an Assault Rifle to the Chief in the cutscene. However, if the player got to this level by completing the level Cortana right before, the player will start with whatever weapon they took from that level, if they have the Cortana Skull, they will spawn with a Spartan Laser and if they didn't play the previous level, they have a rocket launcher and shotgun.
| |
| **If the previous level is finished with the Flamethrower equipped, however, the loadout will be set to Assault Rifle and Rocket Launcher.
| |
| *In gameplay, the Arbiter's primary weapon is a {{Pattern|Okarda'phaa|plasma rifle}} and an [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Sword]] as the secondary. During the cutscene in the Control Room, he is oddly shown wielding a [[Type-51 Carbine|Covenant Carbine]].
| |
| *Johnson's position in the gameplay section of the Control Room is different from his position in the cutscenes. During the cutscenes, he's directly in front of the Control Room's console, whereas in gameplay he is positioned nearly outside of the circular walkway.
| |
|
| |
| ===Easter eggs===
| |
| {{Main|Easter eggs}}
| |
| [[File:Halo Mongoose End.jpg|thumb|There is a [[M274 Ultra-Light All-Terrain Vehicle|Mongoose]] hidden to the far left of the area where Johnson's Warthog is parked, though completing the level with the Mongoose does not alter the cutscene at the end (i.e. it's still a Warthog in the cutscene)]]
| |
| *There is a [[Final Grunt|Talking Grunt]] on this level. He tries to make fun of the Master Chief's childhood by mocking how he was kidnapped and forced into the [[SPARTAN-II program]]. This is also a reference to other [[Special dialogue Grunt|Talking Grunts]], who appeared in past ''Halo'' games.
| |
| *If you go all the way to the cave with the Terminal, then look to your right. You will see a dark area. Grenade launch yourself over to the first pillar then jump to the platform to your left. If you look at the wall with your flashlight you'll see Jason Jones (founder of Bungie) jumping up and down in his underwear.
| |
|
| |
| ===References===
| |
| [[File:IslandCompare.jpg|thumb|A comparison between the Cartographer Island and the final section of the Warthog run.]]
| |
| *Another reference to ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', in the campaign lobby the Mission Start's description is ''[[Assault on the Control Room]]''.
| |
| *The unfinished state of [[Installation 08]] seems to reference the original Halo concepts where the ring was in a broken form.
| |
| *One of the lines spoken by 343 Guilty Spark while the player battles him is "...destroy your inheritance!". This has been interpreted by some as a reference to ''[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0296766/ Inheritance]'', a feature film starring [[Jen Taylor]], who provides the voice of Cortana. However, it is more likely that 343 Guilty Spark is referring to the relation between the Forerunners and humans.
| |
| *One of the other lines spoken by 343 Guilty Spark during the fight is "My precious!" This is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Gollum|Gollum]], a character from the ''[[Wikipedia:The Lord of the Rings|Lord of the Rings]]'' novels, who was absolutely obsessed with the One Ring and referred to it as his "precious".
| |
| *It has been noted that the final section bears a striking resemblance to the [[Cartographer]] island from the level ''[[Silent Cartographer]]'' from the first game. Although it may be a coincidence, it is possible that the structure is the beginnings of the Cartographer island.
| |
| *The last section of gameplay on this level is a remake of the [[Warthog run]] on ''[[The Maw]]'', the last level of the first game, only it is slightly more complex than the original Warthog run, and has no time limit, although the player will die if a panel falls out from underneath them which serves as a replacement to the time limit. It maintains many elements of the original 'Maw Run', including a chasm-jump. It is of note that both runs effectively start in control centers ({{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}}'s bridge, and Halo's Control Room), use the Warthog as the main method of transport, involve an escape to a hangar bay and end with large explosions that destroy a Halo.
| |
| *There is a [[Seven|7]] reference in the end when Lord Hood has finished making his speech, '''7''' Marines under orders from Sergeant Stacker fire a 3-volley salute with their battle rifles.
| |
| *Cortana's line, "But you did it. Truth and the Covenant... the Flood, It's finished," is a reference to one of her lines from the end of ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' — "We did what we had to do... for Earth. An entire Covenant armada obliterated, and the ''Flood''... we had no choice. Halo... it's finished." In the first game, the Chief denies it, as the war is not over yet. ("I think we're just getting started.") This time, with the war over and the Flood obliterated, he agrees.
| |
| **It is also a reference to the final scene of ''Halo 2'', where the Chief says he is 'finishing the fight.' "Finish the Fight" was used as the tagline for ''Halo 3'''s advertising campaign.
| |
| **Also worthy of note is that the ''Halo'' Trilogy starts with the Master Chief awakening from cryo-sleep and ends with him going into cryo-sleep.
| |
| *The chapter title "The Way the World Ends" and Johnson's line "Send me out... with a bang." are both references to the poem "[[wikipedia:The Hollow Men|The Hollow Men]]" by T. S. Eliot: "This is the way the world ends / Not with a bang but a whimper." The poem is also referenced to in [[Halo 3 announcement trailer|''Halo 3'' announcement trailer]] (and previously in the [[Cortana Letters]]) and [[Reversed messages]] found in the ''Halo 3'' soundtrack.
| |
| *Behind the final Terminal is a replica of the one of the [[phase pulse generator]]s like the ones in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', however, it's heavily barricaded with four pillars to prevent anyone from disrupting it like John had in ''[[Two Betrayals]]''. In addition, the chamber itself is exactly as it appeared in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' but with increased security measures such as unbreakable glass and four more additional barricades surrounding the protected pulse generator. However, if one returns to this room after the cutscene in which Johnson dies, the barriers are gone, but the player is still unable to interrupt the beam like in ''Halo: Combat Evolved''.
| |
|
| |
| ===Production notes===
| |
| *The part where the player first sees the Control Room ziggurat originally featured a cutscene with the ''Forward Unto Dawn'' flying overhead, revealing Sergeant Johnson's intention to accompany John-117 and Thel 'Vadam into the Control Room; in this version, Cortana was under the impression that Johnson was supposed to have returned to the portal with the ''Shadow of Intent'' until this point.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DrOvOXI_l8 '''YouTube''': '' Halo 3 - Cut Cinematic - Ziggurat Reveal'']</ref>
| |
|
| |
| ===Miscellaneous===
| |
| *This is the third level to contain the Flamethrower.
| |
| *Oddly, even though [[High Charity]] is destroyed and there are no Flood controlled ships in the system, Flood Dispersal Pods somehow fall from the sky. It is possible that they came from the location where Gravemind is rebuilding himself on the ring.
| |
| *If one heads over to the large crevasse next to the [[Control Room]] in the beginning of the level, one can look down and see an almost endless series of catwalks. One can only explore the crevasse in theater mode. In addition, after destroying 343 Guilty Spark, if one rechecks the crevasse it will be distorted by energy waves caused by the rings activation in the control room. This crevasse may be similar to the 'Honeycomb' channels that are used for faster travels, power storage and that [[Carol Rawley|Foehammer]] comes out of in the beginning of the level, ''[[Assault on the Control Room]]'' in ''Halo: Combat Evolved''.
| |
| *Throughout the fight on the ground floor with the first waves of Flood, a [[M41 SPNKR|Rocket Launcher]] and a [[Pez'tk-pattern fuel rod gun|Fuel Rod Gun]] can be found near the lower structures of the tower, each carrying eight Rockets, and 20 Fuel Rods, respectively.
| |
| *It is impossible to kill the Monitor without the Laser.
| |
| **The Monitor will be invulnerable to any damage, including Laser until Johnson knocks him away.
| |
| *The soundtrack for the second half of the level is called "Greatest Journey", however during the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor|MJOLNIR]] Theme part, there are some musical parts that are not featured in the shipped version of the soundtrack title but they are featured in "To Kill a Demon" and "Three Gates" soundtrack titles.
| |
| *There are hidden vehicles on this level during the Warthog Run. They are 4 Ghosts, 2 Choppers and a Mongoose (The Ghosts can only be found if Legendary Co-Op), making it so players can finish the level on four player Co-Op in all different vehicles. Also, getting out of a Ghost while in midair during the final jump can result in the ending cutscene starting before the players enter the cargo bay.
| |
| *Completing this level with four people over Xbox Live on Legendary with the Iron skull on and all four players in a [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]], will reward players with the [[Vidmaster Challenge: Annual]] Achievement.
| |
| *Regardless of what weapons you have before killing Spark, your loadout will be always reset to the [[MA5C assault rifle]] with 32/96, no secondary weapon, and no grenades. However, should the level load during the second rally point, you will start with the assault rifle, a shotgun, and possess grenades.
| |
| *In ''[[Halo: Primordium]]'', it's revealed that [[343 Guilty Spark]] survived his apparent destruction and his badly damaged casing was eventually retrieved by the {{UNSCShip|Rubicon}} from the Ark.
| |
| *In ''[[Halo Wars 2: Awakening the Nightmare]]'', it's revealed that some of the [[Flood]] survived the destruction of [[High Charity]]'s backup reactor and the firing of [[Installation 08]] and remained quarantined within the wreckage of the Covenant holy city.
| |
| *In the ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'' version of ''Halo 3'', the epilogue and after credits scene are depicted as a separate non-playable level called ''Epilogue''. It also lacks the end credits between the memorial scene and the Master Chief and Cortana on the {{UNSCShip|Forward Unto Dawn}} wreckage. In this version of the game, the player can access the Legendary ending simply by playing ''Epilogue'' on Legendary. They do not need to play the whole game on Legendary to get the ending showing [[Requiem]] in ''The Master Chief Collection''.
| |
| *Finishing the level with the Flamethrower equipped on the [[Cortana (level)|previous level]] will reset the loadout to MA5C Assault Rifle and Rocket Launcher.
