oldmano'theC | Weird Sounds on Truth&Recon

after scragging the hunters, skip the gravity lift for awhile & backtrack 1/2 way down the cliff edge path to the point where the red elite was cooping behind the corner on the way up (near the first healthpack for this scene). there's a shallow cave in that corner, roofed by two flat boulders. walk to the very back of this cave, then tiptoe out (too fast & your footsteps might obscure the effect).

as you exit, weird haunting sounds (the ghosts of dead convenant howling at the moon?) will be heard. some are faintly elitish, some jackalish, some like humpback cetaceans with heartburn, some hiss like dead steam.

you can trigger the ghosts every time you re-enter the cave and walk out again. turn all other sounds down, 'cause they can be very faint.

spooky.
