At Rally Point Bravo, I found an instance of the unidentified Forerunner symbol we all know and love. It has an examine option that does nothing, and right beside it is a wall that you can walk through.
Is this suspicious to anyone else?
Found this by accident earlier and thought about making a thread about it.
You beat me to the punch.

What did you think about it? I’m glad I’m not the only one who’s found this.
Now I have more incentive to play the level on Legendary!
Btw, it also appears on Composer, any difficulty. Maybe they’re one and the same object?
Did you press RB to examine?
Probably just a bug.
The wall thing is probably a glitch. If you go to that symbol without glitching into the wall, it does do something. I don’t remember what exactly, I think Cortana said something.

In my experience she doesn’t say anything about it. We’ve tried multiple times without glitching through the wall.
I think the wall is just a coincidence, but I still think there’s something up with the terminal.

Interesting - where in Composer have you found it?
I noticed this too. I didn’t think to look for other ones though. I actually found this one before I even found one of the terminals, so I assumed it was one of them except that the achievement didn’t pop. Then I forgot about it lol
when you examine it cortana and chief start having a conversation about the “Mantle” so its a bug re try it

Yeah, I’m doing that now. On easy, it did give the speech about the Mantle. I still think it’s strange though, especially since Ghost said it’s in other levels…

I’m positive it does something. I don’t remember if it said something then Cortana commented on it or what. Perhaps it makes a difference whether it’s before or after you complete the objective in that room?
it even has its own sounds!
This is a Halo game. It means something.

Yeah, it’s pretty interesting at least. I’m currently searching other missions in hopes of finding the same kind of object.

Look around in the room where you encounter the 2 Hunters, there are 3 glass cases which hold Forerunner artifacts. I forgot what one of the three were, but the other two was that Forerunner-Disc-thingamajig and a Halo Index.
Reports made by the Ivanoff scientists can be heard via the console on each case (Hold RB/Interact)

it’s in the lower leveled area in the middle glass case there’s also the index to the right and an empty and some laser thing as well the console tells you info on them

Here’s the transcript:
"Specimen 815, though that’s a bit misleading as we’ve been seeing these things all over the Halo. Icon is similar to other Forerunner glyphs, with the noted exception of a strong, vertical extrusion.
Going to send this to linguistics, but… I don’t know, my gut’s telling me there’s something else here."
That last line strikes me as something notable.
i wonder is there a connection between the two and is there more?
