Special hidden golden crabs can be discovered across Halo: Campaign Evolved that are physically inaccessible to Master Chief. To view these secret out-of-bounds Easter eggs, players must use the game's built-in Machinima camera mode (Free Cam) to bypass map and skybox barriers and reach the golden crabs.
Walkthrough
The Pillar of Autumn
In the first level The Pillar of Autumn, a golden crab is located on the bridge's observation deck. While you can barely catch a glimpse of it by jumping up and looking out the window, entering free cam allows you to go outside the ship and see the golden crab sitting directly on a defense turret. Players can jump on top the display next to Captain Keyes and clip through the ceiling to escape the Autumn.
Halo
In the second level Halo, a golden crab is located at the very top of the initial Forerunner beacon tower. Even if you use the Acrophobia skull to fly up as Master Chief, an invisible barrier blocks your path. Bypassing the barrier in free cam reveals the golden crab sitting at the summit.
Keyes
In the ninth level Keyes, a golden crab is located inside the inaccessible control room of the Truth and Reconciliation at the very start. Entering camera mode while pushing back behind the corner of the third locked door will clip the camera directly through into the room. The golden crab rests on the floor of the bridge platform.
