Undiscovered Halo 3 Easter Egg
In the "Bungie Mail Sack 9.0"
[quote]Its A Mirage asked the following question:
Are there any Easter eggs from your past games that surprised you at how quickly they were found or any that surprised you at how long they took to find?
Definitely the IWHBYD skull in H3. But you cheated. There is one Easter egg in Halo 3 that I don't think anyone has found - I stumbled across it in code a while back. It only happens on a specific day...so good luck.

This has really raised my curiosity. Does anyone have any ideas?
[url=http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=news&cid=32054]Link to the Bungie Mail Sack 9.0[/url]. Text is just above the video of the Marty Easter Egg on Kikowani Station.
This may be *old* news, but I've only just found out about it.

This was in Mail Sack 13:
[quote]What is your proudest moment in your time at Bungie?
Showing my wife the Easter egg I put in the halo 3 loading screen for her - the one that nobody has found yet.

Update, again. In [url=http://www.bungie.net/News/Blog.aspx?mode=news#cid32088]Mail Sack 14[/url], this is what we got.

Xd00999 Can you give us any more hints on Easter eggs we have not found yet?
No. I cannot. And you, beloved community, must all stop asking. I am sorry. This revival of Easter egg hysteria is entirely my fault. In a previous Sack, I allowed the panel to tease you with mentions of Halo eggs that have yet to be found. You will never find them all. We cannot give you hints. If we did, those eggs would lose their magic. You simply must stop sending me private messages, and stop dropping these questions into the Sack. The strain of lugging around the extra weight of them just might break my back.[/quote]
Looks like no more information for us. We must do the rest of the work, ourselves.
Here is what we know, so far.
-Easter egg is on a specific day
-Easter egg happens in a loading screen.
Based on that information, it could happen any day of the year, in a loading screen.
But, what is a loading screen? Most of the Halo 3 loading is done in lobby..
I figure, it's when you complete a mission, without scoring on. You come to the screen with the Halo ring filling up. That is the only loading screen I can think of.
Activating the Easter egg, seems to be most likely a button combination. How else would you activate one during a loading screen?
What we need to figure out
-The day
-How to activate the egg

Someone needs to find this employee and email him so we can get hints.
-
Well at the first level there is a whole section that is outside the map with easter eggs. That is old though.
-
You guys all assumed that just because it's an easter egg to his wife, the date is somehow related to their relationship...this might not be the case. On changing dates on the 360, I just have one question: has anyone tried the ending months of 2552? [Edited on 06.20.2012 9:21 PM PDT]

Guys the exact date and time the bungie employee said just showing Easter egg to wife is the exact time it will appear and it's prolly the background of the lobby where is shows the arbiter and master chief maybe it will show 2 other people
-
Hmmm very intriguing i shall look more into this.

Apparently the Adult Swim headquarters wanted to have cannons on their building so they could shoot fireworks at the corporate office across the street. I believe we have come to the start of the entertainment industry taking over the world. And we're going to let them because we'll never know if they're serious or not.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] theshadowstriker Why am I always afraid that if we go further into this, we uncover some ancient secret that if we do find out, Bungie will kill us as apart of their plan for world domination?[/quote] I found it! The loading screen has the launch codes for the giant slingshot!!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] v3n0m cutler Hey guys I"m new to posting on this forum so I'm not sure if I am posting this correctly or not. I've been reading through the forum but not all of it. So I don't know if it has been mentioned before but I was just looking at known easter eggs in the game and one of them mentions a carving in a tree on the first campaign level. Right around where the brute is holding a marine by his neck. It is a heart with M+L and 7-16-95 on it. So I don't know if this helps but it is something that I have found. Sorry if it has been mentioned before.[/quote] That's a very good discovery, this is the kind of information we need. However, the guy's name is "Adrian Perez", so either of those initials is unlikely . Good discovery, nonetheless.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DarkJet7 I can't shake the feeling that Bungie is just letting us on, they must be pissing themselves laughing while reading this thread.[/quote]Like the supposed mystery of Sandtrap that never did exist lol.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Verachi [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Colossal Dave [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Verachi I wonder if IWHBY skull would have ever been found if people didn't cheat to find it.[/quote] How was it found originally? [/quote] Some jerks hacked the game/cracked the code to see where it was. Bungie was giving us hints on how to find it but it didn't work out.....[/quote]Wow, that's disappointing, but I'm not entirely surprised.

Maybe something with 2 person co-op? because of a couple? Were two people may have to do something in a previous mission for the easter egg to show up.
-
It can be found I'm sure
-
If it's for the guy's wife, the day is probably their anniversary or her birthday. Probably has been said before, but oh well.
-
awesome :D

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Jose291 I really hope this employee give us another hint..[/quote]Anyone know where we can PM him?

You're not going to find it guys. It has to be a specific day, month, year and time. Good luck.

I really hope this employee give us another hint.. or maybe, the messages says " I love you honey or Will you marry me"? [Edited on 05.08.2012 6:41 PM PDT]

What happened here? No news? Come on!!!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] YodasCurd Well guys, I just knocked out the loading screen for the whole month of January, Valentines Day, Leap Year (4/29), and 7/7/07 I figure ill do a month a night, or if anyone wants to message me so we can split up the months and work on them that would be cool too. If not, then i start February tomorrow :)[/quote] Um, Leap Year is in February, not April.
