General Server Discussion

Unread post by ACEfanatic02 »

MODERATOR NOTICE: With the opening of one of the servers and this flood of information, I can predict that these forums will get overrun with separate posts about them. So I'm making this thread for you folks to discuss the servers. Please put all server discussion in this thread, please don't make new topics about the servers. Thanks, Ibeechu :)

MODERATOR NOTICE 2: This thread is getting utterly overrun, so I've made this the general server discussion thread. Post here about the server as a whole. The media accessed within the server has its own sticky threads. Thanks, Coweh ;)

Type in what it says and you get an audio clip. It's a bit hard to hear. Anyone want to listen closely enough to write it down?

The arrow is a link to another website.

I'm having trouble signing in.

I'll link to it when I do.

this is what i got from the new audio...

this is how it all begins
just enough time to dance on the knife edge of oblivion
to relive what the halos have hoped to destroy and more
for two enemies now stand where there was only one
the fate we escaped and the fate we will relive
i almost convinced myself that no one was listening
but the waves of the past will roll through once again
the chance remains to change the universe anew
learn our past take these keys and dip from the wells of history
perhaps through others eyes we may find how to save us all

this is how it all begins
just in time to stand once again on the knife-edge of oblivion
to relive what the halos had hoped to destroy, and more
for two enemies now stand where before there was only one
a fate we escaped, and a fate we may relive
i almost convinced myself that noone was listening
that the waves of the past had rolled through once again
but a chance remains to change the universe, anew
learn our past
take these keys and dip them in the wells of history
perhaps through others' eyes you will learn how to save us all.

-edit- Agh... two seconds too late.

Server 5 is unlocked.

Oh my God. There's runes all over it, and each one links to something else...

I'm in. There's a floating, rotating, Monitor-type gadget that can be rotated by the mouse. Its sillhouette matches that of the server outlines on the Halo 3 page. Weird SFX, a thrumming and a sound like an air pump. There's a forerunner-style glyph on the rotating gadget that's brighter than the others; it's a circle within a circle, but the outer circle has an arc out of it (like a partial eclipse) and is attached to the inner circle by three radial lines. The arc is at the top-right quadrant.

-- Steve's brain isn't quite absorbing this as quickly as he'd hoped.

PS: I almost wrote; "My god, it's full of stars."
