Changes: Zanzibar Eggs

Revision as of 21:09, 24 December 2014

In the Halo 2 multiplayer level, Zanzibar, most of the year there is a sign near the beach with "Danger, No Swimming" on top of a picture of a shark. At certain times of the year, the sign will change.

Signs

On 01/01 (or New Year's), the sign reads, "Baby Shark Petting," and it has a picture of a little kid petting a smiling shark.
On 07/07/7 7 ( Bungie Day), the "No Swimming" sign has a poster taped over it with a picture of a decapitated dog's head with what looks to be rabbit ears instead of dog ears. It reads "Are you finding Ling-Ling's head?" This is a reference to an ongoing Bungie joke that is about a Dog's head in a jar that was left behind by the Bungie creators roommate, who was a medical student. The Bungie team had decided to keep the Ling-Ling's Head after their roommate had left, and Ling-Ling's head is now in the Bungie Studios refrigerator.
On 10/31 (or Halloween), it is a warning sign reads, "Danger, Carnage Zone" and shows a guy getting disemboweled (the disemboweled person is also the Halo 3 Splatter Medal symbol).
On 12/25 (or Christmas), it reads, "Danger, This Soffish, DO NOT EAT!" and shows a Soffish toy on a small blue dinner plate.

Opening the Gate

When a player opens the gate, the screen where the switch is activated has a "Blue-Screen" error (that occurs on the Microsoft Windows OS), commonly referred to as the Blue Screen of Death (or BSOD).

Find LingLing's head

If the base's gate hasn't been opened, you can see faint outlines of a dog's head and a grunt's head on the big metal base in the bottom middle of the gate. The inside-facing image looks like a dog's head, and the outer side is a grunt's head, with respirator. This is much easier to see if you throw a plasma grenade at it.

Trivia

It is possible to see the signs when it is not the correct date. First put the date of one of the signs in the Xbox or PC options and then play Halo 2 and go to Zanzibar. You will see the sign of which ever one's date you put on the Xbox or PC.

Before the message it has the letters WAC which as Marty O Donnell stated in a This Spartan Life video that stands for 'Weak-Ass Code'. Referencing that WAC is the cause for the blue-screen error.
