*If the one listens closely when Johnson and his Marines break formation and move out in the launch bay during the beginning cutscene, the sound of a Warthog crashing into a wall can be heard in the background.

*In the cinematic when the player goes to the bridge for the first time, the ''Pillar of Autumn'' is hit by an antimatter charge, and the bridge will shake. Captain Keyes and Master Chief will fall on the bridge, but the crewman behind them are not affected in any way.

*The ''Autumn''{{'}}s main view screen has a diagram on it, with an annotation displaying, 'Trajectory FD: Halo,' yet nobody on board the ''Autumn'' knows the ring's name. It isn't found out by any of the human characters until Captain Keyes overhears the guards on the ''[[Truth and Reconciliation]]'' talking about it.
*If one strafes right-to-left on the ''Autumn's'' bridge, one can see that [[Installation 04]] only has a diameter of about 50 meters with a width of only a couple feet, while in reality the ring is approximately 10,000 kilometers in diameter and quite a few kilometers in width.

*When given the pistol from Captain Keyes, he is talking with the side of his mouth open as if he was smoking his pipe.
*After Keyes puts his cigar in his mouth, his lip becomes permanently tilted as if the cigar was there, even when it has been removed.
*Sometimes, in the cafeteria area, there are two Johnsons among the Marines. One of them comes out of the door where the Sangheili Minor is as normal. The other one is where the rest of the Covenant forces come out of the two doors at the other side of the cafeteria. The second Johnson is pointing his weapon at a pillar that's next to a table. He doesn't attack the Covenant or the player when the rest of the marines think of the player as a traitor. He won't budge unless the player or the Covenant kill him. He'll still do his speeches as normal.

*Sergeant Johnson appears a few times in this level. Firstly, when he is giving his speech to the line of Marines and also appears as the driver of the Warthog in the background at times. He is always in the mess hall fighting Covenant. He then sometimes appears guarding a lifeboat airlock, and then is killed in an explosion, and finally appears in the battle with the Covenant on the landing.

*[[Zuka 'Zamamee]] was an enemy in this level, but with a different Sangheili model (Usually a Sangheili Major). By hints from ''Halo: The Flood'', Zuka 'Zamamee is probably the Sangheili guarding the last escape pod, as that is the setting that the book best describes his presence.

*In the ''Anniversary'' version of this level, the Bumblebee pilot is a female Marine model from ''Halo 3'', as opposed to a repurposed UNSC Army Ranger model from ''Halo Reach.''
