Is there a grav lift on the ark and if so where is it?

:After you kill the Scarab, there will be a building in the "arena". In that building is 3 Grav Lifts. Let me guess, you're getting the Cowbell skull?

Shipmaster117, he may have been joking, that's his thoughts about it being worst level. | |||
It was once planned to have Elites with you in the Level but was cut because of the Sentinels, and you do notice Keyes says either "Johnson, have the Elites found the Cartographer?" and "Johnson, have the Elites found anything". The Sentinels were to assist you when getting to the Cartographer, but because the Vehicular combat, Bungie cancelled it out because the Sentinels would die to easily. [[User:ATP2555|ATP2555]] | |||

== Marines looking at sentinels? == | |||
After you save the Sentinels, the Marines will look up at them thinking as if they were hostile. | |||
:When do you save sentinels? [[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<span style="color: lime; font-family: BankGothic Md BT; font-size: 12pt;">'''BPL'''</span>]] 15:24, 18 April 2009 (UTC) | |||
==Galaxy?== | |||
At the beggining of the level, the marines will say "whoa, look at that", "Is that what i think it is?" I think they are talking about the galaxy in the sky. Do the marines (and ODST) think that is the milky way? Becuase in reality the Milky Way is a spiral galaxy, but the in-game galaxy is a bar spiral galaxy. Also later in they level, when the map is activated the Chief says "Thats...our galaxy...Where on the very edge" or something similar. if the Ark were on the edge of the galaxy, we wouldnt be able to see the entirity of it. So...Is that galaxy in the distant a different one, or the Milky Way?[[User:PsychoThunder|PsychoThunder]] | |||
It's assumed. But your right, and I thought the Ark was nowhere near our Galaxy.[[User:GEARS OF WAR 2|GEARS OF HALO CREED]] | |||
Our Milky Way galaxy is, in fact, a barred spiral it is now known (since the early 2000's I think). It should probably appear larger in the sky of the Ark though. The Ark is outside the galaxy, it's true, but not that far out (a little more than 2.6 galactic diameters away from the galaxy).

== Talking to Terminal == | |||
On the terminal page, it says you can hear Spark talk to the terminal. What does he say? [[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<span style="color: lime; font-family: BankGothic Md BT; font-size: 12pt;">'''BPL'''</span>]] 00:34, 15 April 2009 (UTC) | |||

Sshould it be separate from this article, or not? - [[User talk:Jangos Legacy|Jangos Legacy]] 20:27, 9 July 2009 (UTC) | |||
== Inconsistency == | |||
How is it possible that the Frigates drop the pelicans out of their bays? What happened to the elevators seen when the Dawn lands on the Ark (the ones that deploy the Scorpions) --[[User talk:SacredCow92|SacredCow92]] 03:17, September 9, 2009 (UTC) | |||
Maybe the elevators double as hatches, and can retract sideways into the deck of the Dawn's hangar. Whatever the reason, I interpreted it as a nod on the part of Bungie to the drop scene from ''Aliens''. The way the Pelicans drop out and nose down towards the Ark mirrors how the Cheyenne does it in that movie. I figure Bungie just wanted to include the homage to that scene, regardless of the consistency issues. [[Special:Contributions/188.60.111.14|188.60.111.14]] 20:45, December 12, 2009 (UTC) | |||
Interesting, however, it seems as though Shadow of Intent was carrying two frigates, Forward Unto Dawn and the Aegis Fate (From Sandtrap). It is possible the pelicans were in the Aegis Fate (no elevators), and the Tanks/Warthogs were in the Forward Unto Dawn (elevators) If this is the case, the part of the article mentioning Hocus dropping out of the Forward Unto Dawn should be changed to make more sense. --[[User talk:SacredCow92|SacredCow92]] 04:46, December 14, 2009 (UTC) | |||
Outside of Sandtrap the ''Aegis Fate'' is never mentioned. Further more, it is never seen in the levels cutscene. It is possible the the elevators retract further up and allow the dropping of cargo and pelicans out of the bottom of the bay, then the elevators lower and serve as doors, and for vehicular disembarkment seen in the level. The fact is, it is ''Forward Unto Dawn'' in the cutscene, not the ''Aegis Fate''. Also it would make no sense that two ships of the same class would be different in that way. --[[User talk:Avalon304|Avalon304]] 09:20, January 12, 2010 (UTC) | |||
Good theory cow, though that is just a theory, which is put as "speculation". Only time will tell! Though what I believe is that the scene was put into as just a simple homage to Aliens. I just wish one of the ODSTs would've gone unconscious, LOL! EM | |||
It's unclear if the ''Aegis Fate'' was aboard the ''Shadow of Intent''. It had been assumed that Sandtrap was on the Ark for a long time until Sandbox was released and it was actually a planet or moon in its own right, being two maps depicting the same location. Also, the Forward Unto Dawn's design didn't have elevators big enough for the Pelicans. Even if you slow the cutscene video down you can see that the Pelican's wings clip through the floor of the frigate. It's a cool scene, but just can't happen for real, unfortunately.

== Desert or Frozen waste land == | |||
I always thought u were in a snowy area rather than a desert!!!And how can it be a desert if there are ice sycles on the ground near rocks and stuff, who else has noticed this inconsistencey?[[User talk:Justin Kane|Justin Kane]] 01:54, March 18, 2010 (UTC)Justin Kane | |||
:The icicles aren't icicles at all, they're just random white crystals. And AFAIK snow isn't brown and sand-colored. :P <span style="background:#ADA;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%"><b>File:DavidJCobb_Emblem.svg|16px]] [[User:DavidJCobb|<span style="color:#000;position:relative;top:.15em">DavidJCobb </span>]]</b></span> 02:39, March 18, 2010 (UTC) | |||
