'''Hellomyname Keyes''' is an Easter Egg on the level [[Truth and Reconciliation (Level)|Truth and Reconciliation]] in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], you will need to save your sniper rifle until you save [[Captain Keyes]]. Zoom in 10x and if you look closely at the name tag on Capt. Keyes, you will see above it, says HELLOMYNAME then below it KEYES. If you have halo pc and halo map tools you can find that his name tag is also in the bitmaps section.
'''Hellomyname Keyes''' is an Easter egg in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' referring to a grammatically incorrect nametag on [[Jacob Keyes|Captain Keyes]]' uniform. A patch on Keyes' chest reads "HELLO MY NAME", and the patch beneath it reads "KEYES". It is speculated that, during the production process of the game, [[Bungie]] had no room to fit the missing word, ''is'', on the tag. On the left of the badge the [[Marathon]] symbol can be seen.
 
==Guide==
One can view the nametag using a 2×-zoomed pistol in the level [[the Pillar of Autumn (Halo: Combat Evolved level)|The Pillar of Autumn]] or a 2×/8×/10×-zoomed [[Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 Anti-Matériel|S2 AM sniper rifle]] in [[the Truth and Reconciliation]]. The patch can be seen more reliably using [[Halo Map Tools]]; it is the first decal listed in Bitmap (capn_patches_decal). It can also be seen clearly in the cutscene during which the Master Chief arrives on the bridge of the ''[[UNSC Pillar of Autumn|Pillar of Autumn]]''.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*[[Bungie]] didn't have room to put the "is" in.
* As ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' takes place immediately before ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', it can be assumed that Keyes is wearing the same uniform. Despite this, while there is a similarly-shaped badge in the same place, it no longer reads "HELLO MY NAME KEYES", and instead is completely blank. Additionally, the Marathon symbol on the badge has been replaced with the [[Seventh Column]] symbol.
** The same applies to Keyes' appearance in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'', which reuses Keyes' model from ''Halo: Reach''.

Hellomyname Keyes is an Easter egg in Halo: Combat Evolved referring to a grammatically incorrect nametag on Captain Keyes' uniform. A patch on Keyes' chest reads "HELLO MY NAME", and the patch beneath it reads "KEYES". It is speculated that, during the production process of the game, Bungie had no room to fit the missing word, is, on the tag. On the left of the badge the Marathon symbol can be seen.

Guide[edit]

One can view the nametag using a 2×-zoomed pistol in the level The Pillar of Autumn or a 2×/8×/10×-zoomed S2 AM sniper rifle in the Truth and Reconciliation. The patch can be seen more reliably using Halo Map Tools; it is the first decal listed in Bitmap (capn_patches_decal). It can also be seen clearly in the cutscene during which the Master Chief arrives on the bridge of the Pillar of Autumn.

Trivia[edit]

  • As Halo: Reach takes place immediately before Halo: Combat Evolved, it can be assumed that Keyes is wearing the same uniform. Despite this, while there is a similarly-shaped badge in the same place, it no longer reads "HELLO MY NAME KEYES", and instead is completely blank. Additionally, the Marathon symbol on the badge has been replaced with the Seventh Column symbol.
