''Two [[F-99 | ''Two [[F-99 Wombats]] fly toward the city over the Uplift Nature Reserve, one of the Drone's cameras zooms in on an [[SOEIV]] on the beach, and an [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODST]] walking away from it. The ODST is Dutch who watches the fighters fly overhead before putting his helmet on and polarizing it. The view then switches to Dutch's perspective. He unlimbers his [[M6 Spartan Laser|Spartan Laser]] and readies it.'' | ||

*While moving into Section B of the park, just before the second major fight, allied Warthogs may stop either near the Ghost on the rock or drive around the front of the connecting tunnel. The player can move them forward, but they may drive right back to the starting area. This is probably an AI navigation error in the game code; similar idling can also occur at other narrow parts of this level. | *While moving into Section B of the park, just before the second major fight, allied Warthogs may stop either near the Ghost on the rock or drive around the front of the connecting tunnel.

*When the player first encounter Shade Turrets in Section B, if they turns left towards the shore, they can find a dead zebra without eyeballs.

*Near the Covenant landing zone with the gravity lift base in Section C, [[Wounded Marine|a crazed Marine]] with a broken ankle is among the group of Marines taking cover behind a ridge.

*At the level's end, whatever vehicle the player use - a Warthog, a Ghost, or a Chopper - to make the dramatic jump will appear in the ending cutscene. All will have the same speed when crashing into the wall and will explode at the same time. If the player makes the jump without a vehicle, the Warthog cutscene plays by default. Despite what vehicle the player completes in, a destroyed Warthog will always be found in the place in the square. | *At the level's end, whatever vehicle the player use - a Warthog, a Ghost, or a Chopper - to make the dramatic jump will appear in the ending cutscene.

*Even if the player has a vehicle with Marines when jumping at the level's end, the end cutscene shows an empty vehicle except for Dutch. Interestingly, if the player stops his/her vehicle before the cliff, the marines will wisely exit. | *Even if the player has a vehicle with Marines when jumping at the level's end, the end cutscene shows an empty vehicle except for Dutch.

*The player can see a section of the [[New Mombasa Coastal Highway]] while on the suspension bridge, where they witness the collapse of the orbital elevator. The bridge itself can be spotted on a certain section of the ''[[Coastal Highway]]'' level. | *The player can see a section of the [[New Mombasa Coastal Highway]] while on the suspension bridge, where they witness the collapse of the orbital elevator.
