For many fans of the series,Halo 3is an important game in theHalofranchise. Being the firstHalogame to introduce Forge mode, along with a number of fan-favorite weapons,Halo 3remains special toHalofans everywhere. Although, for such an old game, players are still managing to accomplish rather curious feats withinHalo 3, which includes unintentionally boarding a Covenant ship that wasn’t meant to be boarded.
Despite releasing nearly fifteen years ago,Halo 3still remains prevalent in theHaloseries, with players spending years trying to push the game to its absolute limits. To the point where players actually managed tobreakHalo 3’sskybox and enter the Picture Room, which is essentially a white space filled with art assets fromHalo 3. However, this most recent discovery is comparatively more humorous.

AReddituser named drakirby managed to find their way onto a Covenant ship during a mission inHalo 3that was not meant to be boarded. The user realized that it wasn’t meant to be boarded when the ship—along with every enemy NPC—despawned in midair and the user fell to their death. Sadly, the ship passed over a checkpoint activation, so the player was stuck in a constant loop of spawning on the ship, only for the ship to disappear.
Even though this event likely happened by accident, the fact that the player still managed to not only do this in game, but trigger a checkpoint while still on the Covenant ship is quite hilarious. Given how abrupt the ship and the enemies despawn, it’s likely thatBungiedevelopers did not account for something like this at the time.
In any case, it’s amazing how much attentionHalo 3continues to receive from its community of fans. Then again, given the recentXbox 360 server shut down forHalo 3, this likely has caused a revitalization inHalo 3’spopularity. Considering the numerous tributes toHalo 3as well as clips like these, it goes to show how much love fans still have for this entry in the series.
It will be interesting to see what the future holds forHalogoing forward.Halo Infinitehas cultivated a massive amount of success in the short time it’s been commercially available. Though, many fans are wondering when additional pieces of content forHaloInfinitewill be released. Forge mode still has yet to be released and there’s likely a lot of other content that 343 Industries has in store for players that hasn’t been shared yet.
