Halopedia has a walkthrough guide for this level; see Sierra 117/Walkthrough. |
Sierra 117 is the first campaign level of Halo 3.
Upon completing it on the Normal, Heroic, or Legendary difficulties, the player will earn the "Landfall" achievement and 20 Gamerpoints.[1]
Setting
This level takes place in an African jungle, as confirmed via the hexadecimal code of the Halo 3 Beta and physically confirmed in the Halo 3 E3 2007 Trailer and subsequent Bungie Podcasts. The jungle is home to a Covenant Loyalist encampment, and hosts lush verdant forestry, rivers, waterfalls, and tunnels.
Plot
According to the Halo 3 E3 2007 Trailer, somehow the Chief arrives in this jungle at the beginning of the game and joins forces with the Arbiter and a few Marines. They progress through the area, securing landing zones for Pelican Dropships and defending them against enemy Banshees.[2] If one makes inferences based on the Halo 3 Zune Concept Art and the beta code's level names, the level will culminate at an arrival at the Halo 3 UNSC Base.
It was stated in the September 07 issue of Gamepro that the Chief would have to rescue Johnson from a downed Pelican.
Transcript
The following transcript is incomplete, but is based on incomplete resources on Sierra 117's gameplay.
- Marine: Sleepers! Take 'em out, nice and quiet! Jackals, on the ridge! Looks like they've got Carbines.
{Short pause as Marines move out}
- Marine: I hate it when I'm right!
Trivia
- Note that the level is called Sierra 117; Sierra is the word used in the NATO phonetic alphabet to represent the letter S, so it is S 117 which corresponds to SPARTAN-117. This has been confirmed in the second bungie podcast.
- In the August 2007 EGM Halo 3 Story, Sierra 117 mistakenly said to be the fifth Level in the Halo 3 Campaign.[3]
