*Several maps of New Mombasa seen during the [[Audio Log]]s in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' show the Mag-Lev lines from the space elevator's base leading to the Mombasa island. However, as seen in-game as well as several other maps, the train lines lead only to the mainland north of the elevator.<ref name="story"/> | *Several maps of New Mombasa seen during the [[Audio Log]]s in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' show the Mag-Lev lines from the space elevator's base leading to the Mombasa island.

*During the level [[Tsavo Highway (level)|Tsavo Highway]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'', when two marines have a brief dialogue about the fate of the elevator, they erroneously refer to it having collapsed when the city was glassed. As seen in ''Halo 3: ODST'', it collapsed well before the glassing of the city, due to its structure weakening from the Slipspace rupture. This may be a mistake on Bungie's part, the marines may have been misinformed of the cause of the destruction, or it may be being used in a colloquial manner to refer to the extensive damage caused by Regret's slipspace jump. | *During the level [[Tsavo Highway (level)|Tsavo Highway]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'', when two marines have a brief dialogue about the fate of the elevator, they erroneously refer to it having collapsed when the city was glassed.

*In the ''[[Halo 2: Anniversary]]'' multiplayer map [[Stonetown]], New Mombasa and the space tether can be viewed in the map's vista. However, the space tether appears to be under construction, and the city as a whole is nowhere near as built up as it is seen in ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3: ODST''. It is possible that the map is set prior to the tether (and city)'s construction, or that the map is set following the end of the war, in which [[Project Rebirth]] is rebuilding the city. | |||
