Talk:Ghost of Lockout

may actually be real

i sued to think all these stories were loads of bullshit until it actually happened on headlong to me and 2 other people. we were all on the bridge and bam something sniped us. we checked player list and no one else was there. it happened until the party leader left, when he came back it came back as well. it was crazy. you dont have to believe it though.

Seriously

I think that people need to have a serious look at this article. I think that the crap should be taken out of it, and things like "however, it has never been confirmed by Bungie, and is more likely to be modders". You have to remember that with today's technologies, anyone can make any video they want and post it on youtube. Whether or not what they've done is modding the map, or edited it in in post-production does not matter.

It needs to be taken into serious consideration if this article is actually waranted, and if it is, I think most of it needs to be taken out. -007bond 22:20, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

why are people such no brainers? THE GHOST OF LOCKOUT/TURF/HEADLONG IS REAL, AND A SIMPLE CONNECTION GLITCH -Drinol 22:20, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Holy crap thats freaky. Is it a network glitch or what?...I'd kill for 100% Sticky! —This unsigned comment was made by Kerek (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

Haha hahaha ha haha

This is so funny/freaky! Watch the video it's great...esp. when Underdogg's frozen body get's the sticky from nowhere when he's not looking and he starts glowing all blue - classic. My guess is it's a Bungie joke - what does that mean anyway, an "Unfinished Multiplayer Bot"? Do people think someone started making an AI and it got loose on the Interwebz? —This unsigned comment was made by Mr Toad (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

I heard somewhere that it was proven to be some guy who joined a custom guy right after the "host" quit, or something like that... just some weird networking problem. Anyway, Bungie wouldn't make a multiplayer bot, and even if they did, it wouldn't be included in any of the auto-updates. g^ue_st^y-p_er^so_ny-^th_in^gy^{I too am an AI... my owner's name is Supreme Honcho.} 05:06, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

I heard it was like the Flood a failed experment that got lose and is now haunting Lockout but it is Classic but i've seen it next think i knew i was covered in about mmmm 50 Stickies

This guy throws backward grenades. And seems to act like a real Ghost.

Disembodied Soul

I was just looking at the Bungie article and saw that they say there's an entity in their server called Disembodied Soul, maybe this is it? :D —This unsigned comment was made by AlphaPrime (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

Confirmation

Just wondering, has anyone here ever actually seen this for themselves or was this video the only proof that this occurs? It seems pretty extraordinary for something like this to occur on Xbox live without Bungie noting it. -ED 04:06, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

I've seen it. Stuck it. Been killed by it. --00:25, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

me too but in containment and zanzibar.user:the evil O,malley

I threw a Plasma at it it went right through him and (classic) landed on my guy then he shot me with it's pistol and killed me (i had a oversheild) and it killes me in one hit!!!

While I myself have never seen it, it is well known on Highimpacthalo.org, a website dedicated to various tricks and glitches in halo. There are plenty of people there willing to confirm its existance, and willing to state that it is indeed caused by extreme lag combined with fluke timing. I'm sure if you asked them they'd be happy to tell you more. But personally, some of the ghosts "powers" seem made up. I mean completely, stuff that goes against the games mechanics.

I also noticed one thing. Many people think that it was a mod because Anti Noob looked back when Underdogg got stuck. He does not play that music every time he plays. Without video editing he would have heard a plasma grenade fizzing.The Consumed ,The Dead ,and Living File:ESE.JPG 03:02, 27 May 2007 (UTC)happend to me to on containment it got two shots off at me and i was playing with 2 of my friend split screen noone hade a sniper we quit as soon as it happend noone was killed by it tho i was getting into a banshee it saved me.

Voting on Theories

Do you think this is a Mod or Extreme Lag? No seems to be everywhere ^{[Noone to talk to] + [Nothing here] + [False Character]}

In my own guess its neither.No seems to be everywhere ^{[Noone to talk to] + [Nothing here] + [False Character]}

It is fake i think. Me and a friend were on live and someone joined without showing a gamertag or on the score screen. He kept playing and eventually his tag came in and he was on the score screen. It was just extreme lag, and i think some have used it and modded to make a "ghost".-- Darthmoran 22:27, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

I have a theory but I need to know how it treats both player models. Also I know I'm about to start a huge new search but I saw something like this on Metropolis a bashee was attacking other banshees but it came up as an enemy so I blew it up and it was either a spartan or a brute that came out but it fell in the water and it was upright like it was alive!!! 7th Destiny

Colossus?

Me and my nephew were just playing a game of slayer on the map Colossus. After about half-an-hour I saw a white Spartan figure, holding a Magnum, go up the lift. No one else was playing. We stopped playing for awhile to go and look for it, but we never found it again.

Strange thing is, we weren't playing on Xbox Live.

I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP! AlphaPrime 23:25, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

IT'S TRUE!!!!!!! ALPHA IS NOT LYING!!!!!!!!!! ME AND MY FRIEND DISCOVERED THAT THEIR ARE GHOST SPARTANS EVERYWHERE!!! EVEN ULTRA ELITE GHOSTS!!! YOU DON'T BELIVE US SEE YOUTUBE!!!! user:the evil O,malley

When I run around Lockout to learn the map really well, i swear I see other spartans running around sometimes....Chipbuster

I was on Ivory Tower and a white Spartan with a magnum went up a lift i followed it and it jumped and well disapeered then a when i was on Coagulation a ghost appread under my hog and when i scrambled to help it stole my Hog!!! Bold text

I went on Coagulation and I was flying around in a banshee when I saw a white spartan at the entrance of the cave! I got out and went to the cave to investigate but there was nothing there, I got back into my banshee an I was flying very low to the ground near the rocks and the white spartan slid out and taged me with a plasma grenade, I died and it said 'killed by the guardians!

This is seriosly true, no joke. HДĿΘFáṆ 16:13, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Who put "it's actually fake" on the page?

I dont care whether this is actually true or not, you all can figure that out yourself, but we should at least seem intelligent. We need to drastically improve speling/grammar on this page, its atrocious. I'd do it, but I was actually confused by what the article was saying and I dont know how to word sentences.

P.S. I havent ever seen this "ghost" but maybe someone should make a userbox that says whether or not a user beleives or does not believe in Halo "Ghosts". Spartan 107 69.108.231.10 02:54, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

Ghost of Zanzibar, Coagulation

The Ghost of Zanzibar:

Has an overshield. Is blue. Seems to be passive for a "Ghost" (ie: He ran away from me.)

(I have seen this with my own eyes.)

The Ghost of Coagulation:

Is bright green. Teleports. Can show up offline. Has 1-hit kills.

(RoadRunner had this on his Xbox 360, but it got the 3 red lights of doom. Spooky. He also doesn't have high speed internet, nor has he ever had Xbox Live.)

I just thought you guys might want some legit information from someone you trust.

Killed by Guardians

The words "you were killed by the guardians" can be displayed each time you get mercilessly slaughtered by the Ghost. However, on Terminal, when the bullet train hits you, the words will also say that you got killed by the "guardians". Can the trains of terminal be the same as the ghosts? Hmm... only Bungie knows... --File:GRAW Wallpaper.jpg Blemo ^Talk • Contributions • Semper Fi

maybe the ghost drives the train, even ghosts need jobs. HДĿΘFáṆ 16:07, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

"Killed By The Guardians" shows up whenever an object from the map itself kills you. For example, if you were at the bottom of a cliff and an empty Warthog at the top, the Warthog could fall off and kill you, then the game would say you were Killed By The Guardians. -- File:Slizer.png Captain Obvious^{"Thank you, Captain Obvious!"||My Obvious Observations} 20:23, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

New Theory

Perhaps its not a ghost at all, but an extremem modder capable of forcing his way into games and allow "auto-stick" for his greande, in the Youtube video i noticed the ghost has a Red Symbol on him, I belive this is a logical theory based on the types of mods i have seen, this is not much harder then those ones. --Ergna-- its not me and my friends were offline noone had a sniper sept for the ghost.

Halo:CE True?

Is it true that a ghost sometimes appears in Halo 1?Ezmar 04:57, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

If you are using the online version, yes.Drinol 17:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)Drinol
