While not an Easter egg, the soccer ball can be placed on the multiplayer maps [[Foundry]], [[Standoff]], [[Rat's Nest]], [[Avalanche]], [[Ghost Town]], [[Cold Storage]], [[Assembly]], [[Orbital]], [[Heretic]], [[Citadel]], [[Longshore]] and [[Blackout]] as a [[Forge]] [[Forge objects|object]]. | While not an Easter egg, the soccer ball can be placed on the multiplayer maps [[Foundry]], [[Standoff]], [[Rat's Nest]], [[Avalanche]], [[Ghost Town]], [[Cold Storage]], [[Assembly]], [[Orbital]], [[Heretic]], [[Citadel]], [[Longshore]] and [[Blackout]] as a [[Forge]] [[Forge objects|object]]. | ||

The [[Gravity | It appears to be smaller than the ball in ''Halo 2'', although the physics are much more accurate for it. The [[Gravity Hammer]] is often used to play soccer, but the soccer ball also responds to the Rocket Launcher, Scorpion and Wraith shots, melees, and all types of grenades except the [[Firebomb Grenade]]. Melees are the most effective way of controlling the Ball, as it will not reach velocities much higher than those of the player. The soccer ball, when at a high enough velocity, can kill normal players. | ||

Position one person (''Person A'') at a certain position below a smaller building that is also missing a chunk—you will see the building as soon as you walk back out in to the street. Have the second person (''Person B'') drive the Wraith. Both people should face each other. ''Person B'' should boost with the Wraith, and ''Person A'' should jump. If ''Person A'' times the jump properly, he will be boosted onto the broken part of the building. At this point, ''Person A'' should look around; they will see two metal things sticking out, one on each side. They should jump onto the lower of the two, jumping from there onto the second. Here, ''Person A'' should jump up and on top of the building, proceeding to walk around until they see a raised area with a fence-type thing on it. It is missing a part on the wall, so ''Person A'' should jump up and go through the hole, and walk up to the building mentioned in the first method. From there, they can walk directly to the Soccer Ball. They can [[melee]] it and move it until they knock it off the building and onto the ground. | Position one person (''Person A'') at a certain position below a smaller building that is also missing a chunk—you will see the building as soon as you walk back out in to the street.

If you know where the Ball is located and just do not know how to get up there, follow these steps. When you come to the part when you can [[assassinate]] the [[Kig-yar|Jackal]] and steal his [[Type-50 particle beam rifle]], look for the [[Gauss Warthog]] and go through that area.

In the next part, stay in the Hog until you are able to kill everything, but leave one [[Type-32 Ghost]]. Get in the Ghost and ride up to the part where you meet up with the [[Marine]]s (and eventually jump onto the Scarab). Make sure you jump onto the Wraith and beat down the driver. Get into the Wraith and drive to the area with the Ball. Fire [[plasma]] mortars into the area; after a while, you should ''eventually'' be able to blast the Soccer Ball down to the ground. | ||

For this method, the Sputnik Skull is highly recommended. In Metropolis, after the waterfall part (the entrance is guarded by a Wraith and two [[Jackal Snipers]]) there is a big building with a large piece of broken glass in front of the entrance you just exited. Jump onto the ledge and [[Explosive jumping|Explosive Jump]] into the big glass crack. From there, navigate up the support beams. This may take a few tries, as you need to run and jump from the right spot. No grenade jumps are needed here. Once on the top support beam, you can exit the roof. From there, get to the Ball; it is around the corner with the trees. Melee it off the building as you please (Sputnik is making this relatively easy). If you jump off, you will die, so you instead need to backtrack down into the room with the debris, jump down onto the small ledge, and onto the ground. From there, you (and your [[Co-op|partner]], if present) can [[ | For this method, the Sputnik Skull is highly recommended.

This is guaranteed to work, but may prevent you from getting the Scarab Gun. | ||

Play until you can get into the Gauss Warthog. Get in, kill everything and then, past the waterfall, in the second city part, you will see a broken window. With the Sputnik Skull on, take a [[Rocket Launcher]] and go to the ledge under the broken window. Stand on the edge, and shoot at the ground in front of you as you jump. Be sure to hold back on the left thumbstick. When you land, wait to recharge your [[shield]]s. Jump onto the lowest steel beam. Line yourself up, and rocket jump like you did before. You will land either really close to or on the top. Once on top, go and jump across the gap. The Soccer Ball is in the shadows. Use grenades to get it down onto the streets. Rocket jumps are more dangerous, but more accurate than grenade jumps. | Play until you can get into the Gauss Warthog.
