* While this level takes place in July, the northern URNA, primarily [[Canada]], is clearly covered in snow. This is likely a developer oversight as Earth's [[wikipedia:Terminator (solar)|terminator line]] is inconsistent with the summer months. In July, the terminator runs northwest to southeast across North America in the morning, with the northernmost regions experiencing 24-hour sunlight. In-game the terminator runs northeast to southwest with the North Pole bathed in shadow, a phenomenon which occurs only in winter. | * While this level takes place in July, the northern URNA, primarily [[Wikipedia:Canada|Canada]], is clearly covered in snow.

* In the cutscene in which Master Chief crashes the Broadsword, he picks up an assault rifle after attaching the warhead to his back. When gameplay begins, however, he is wielding a [[BR85HB battle rifle|battle rifle]] and a [[M739 SAW|SAW]]. There are also no assault rifles in this mission, and this is the only mission in ''Halo 4'' where he does not start with an assault rifle. | * In the cutscene in which Master Chief crashes the Broadsword, he picks up an assault rifle after attaching the warhead to his back.
