Great Journey vacation: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 16:42, August 17, 2022

The Great Journey vacation is similar to the Delta Halo vacation. It allows the player to walk all over and around the Control Room island and in the water surrounding the island on the Halo 2 level, The Great Journey.

Walkthrough[edit]

You can explore the entire island, as well as going all the way to the top where the Black Eye Skull would be, but not to the top of the Control Room. From here, you have a great view of the level. You can also jump carefully into the water and walk away till the island disappears over the horizon.

Walking Method[edit]

It is possible to "walk" the entire way onto the island, although it would be more reasonable to take the Banshee method. However, you'll need to go through the lake, jump onto a slope protruding from the Control Center, and crouch/grenade jump to some other slopes and ledges. When you reached a platform that touches the island, you can start your "vacation" there. Coming back down is much harder, since you'll have to jump off ledges, and you might die from the height.

Wraith Method[edit]

Towards the end of the level, instead of going into the Control Room, hijack a Wraith. Then drive through the water and to one side of the island and use the boost to help you get up on the sides.

Banshee Method[edit]

Fly towards the Control Center at the highest possible attitude and wait until you reach a large slope with dark carvings on it. On the top of the slope, there is a flat platform. Your Banshee may not be able to fly to the top, so you'll have to ditch the Banshee behind and walk toward the platform yourself. If you are a skull-collector, follow the instructions for the Black Eye skull on whatever difficulty level you prefer, not necessarily Legendary, and then you are able to explore the entire island as you would be able to with the Wraith.

Ghost Method[edit]

Ghosts can be found along the canyon from the beginning of the level. Ghosts can do everything that is possible with Wraiths and Spectres, albeit at a faster pace.

-This is a very short vacation. Play "The Great Journey" until you get the banshee. Continue until you get to the control chamber door. Instead of ditching your banshee go in, there will be a huge wall, fly OVER it. Get into the part where brutes attack you, and kill the brutes with your banshee’s fuel rod cannon. You don’t have to kill the Brutes, you can just go in the door. Once you get in the door, the screen will turn white and it will show a cut scene. After it is over, you will see a bunch of brutes standing in front of you, turn around, go to the ledge, and jump over it where you will find your banshee. Have fun!

-'''What to do'''
+==Walkthrough==
+You can explore the entire island, as well as going all the way to the top where the Black Eye Skull would be, but not to the top of the Control Room. From here, you have a great view of the level. You can also jump carefully into the water and walk away till the island disappears over the horizon.
-You can fly around the control chamber with your banshee and also go to the other back door. The back door is closed but you can probably find a way to open or go through it. Also, you can kill Tartarus (brute chief) very easily. Just go over to him and wait till Sg. Johnson takes away his shield with his beam rifle. Then keep shooting him with your Banshee. Repeat this method until he dies. You can also make Tartarus (brute chief) jump off the edge of the platform and fall off. This will not kill him, but can be funny.

+===Wraith Method===
+Towards the end of the level, instead of going into the [[Control Room]], hijack a [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]]. Then drive through the water and to one side of the island and use the boost to help you get up on the sides.
-Also, if you don’t go into the control chamber, than you can go behind the cliffs on the left and you can get to an entrance into the other base, then you can do crazy things with your banshee.
+===Banshee Method===
+Fly towards the Control Center at the highest possible attitude and wait until you reach a large slope with dark carvings on it. On the top of the slope, there is a flat platform. Your Banshee may not be able to fly to the top, so you'll have to ditch the Banshee behind and walk toward the platform yourself. If you are a skull-collector, follow the instructions for the [[Halo 2 skulls|Black Eye]] skull on whatever difficulty level you prefer, not necessarily Legendary, and then you are able to explore the entire island as you would be able to with the [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraith]].
+===Ghost Method===
+[[Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle|Ghosts]] can be found along the canyon from the beginning of the level. Ghosts can do everything that is possible with [[Zurdo-pattern Wraith|Wraiths]] and [[Wuzum-pattern Spectre|Spectres]], albeit at a faster pace.
