DYK The Huragok/Engineers only appeared in the outside trilogy games (ODST, Wars and Reach), They were going to be added to Halo: CE, but were removed because of time constraint issues

 

They are found in the coding of every other Halo game, though. So it seems Bungie planned to use them, but didn't until after H3.

It just said they ran out of time

DYK, when you navigate through New Mombasa street at night as the Rookie, Vergil gives you hints and clues in finding 29 out of the 30 audiologs for Sadie's story. Clues are signs (Detour or Keep left/right), Rising the barricades on the road, road crossings (with him talking) and so on

Did you know that when you go to flip the elephant on Sand Trap, the HUD pop-up telling you to press a button to flip says the following instead of the usual message (which would be "Hold {button here} to flip {vehicle name here}")?

 

Hold (button here) to flip... Wait, what? How did you do that?

Did you know that the first Covenant species to make contact with humans were the Kig-Yar? That the average lifespan of a UNSC A.I. is 7 years? That all Halo players are the hardest of the hardcore?

 

False, True, True. The first species of the Covenant to make contact with humans were Brutes according to Contact Harvest.

DYK On November 2552, The ''United Nations Space Command Emergency Priority Order 098831A-1'' aka 'The Cole Protocol' which was originally use to protect Earth from the Covenant was still in use even after Earth was discovered. Because during the months from November 2552 to the closing days in March 2553, there were still more colonies out there that needed protection

No actually Dan, I'm pretty sure the Unggoy (grunts) were the first to come in contact with humans. The deacon aboard the kig-yar ship in the beginning when they attack the freighter, if I'm correct, had first contact with the ships captain. If it wasn't Unggoy then it was the Kig-Yar whp shot him.

Edit: Read the part of the book for confirmation, it was indeed the Deacon (the grunt) of the Kig-Yar ship that came into contact with the human first, and the Huragok (engineer) killed the human.

But of course! You need to spend more time in forge mode my friend :D

 

Are you aware that the Halo3 BR has several glitches, one of which causes the 3rd shot of the burst to go off on a random vector? Bungie was unable to fix it, much to the detriment of MLG pros and hardcore players.

Actually, Bungie claims that the third shot going off on a random vector (which isn't really that random, it has a very low chance of landing inside the reticle, and a very high chance of landing just outside of the reticle) was a planned decision that they included to help balance the BR.

 

DYK that one of the glitches in Halo 3 is the "Reload Glitch", which was widely used until they patched it. The reload mechanic made it to where players could not fire certain weapons (with the exclusion of the shotgun) while they were reloading. However, players could cut the time it took to reload and thereby fire again by switching weapons back and forth quickly about halfway through the animation (just before the magazine entered the weapon).
