[@bernardking13]

I was always baffled, I found the 1st one and was like wtf does this do?!?! Thanks for finding the others even tho idk if it worth it lol

[@shottygod13]

Oooooooo what does this button do? Lmao

[@xxCrazyEights88xx]

I found the first one, then searched the area before finding the other two. But I had already cleared the base so it was pretty much useless lol. I at least plan on using it during my second play through on legendary though.

[@midgetydeath]

Wow, those guns on the deck are... _incredibly_ out of scale with the size of the ship. Even without considering the massive scaling problem with the canon ship sizes. Yeah, they're coil guns in canon, but in canon relative to the ship they're sending out like, eighteen inch shells or bigger.

[@namekman01]

every time i see the grapple work in this game my head just goes "spartan chief, spartan chief, radioactive spartan blood" to the tune of the 90s spiderman cartoon

[@damo408]

You don’t need to push the buttons to pick up the gun, the buttons only call in the orbital strike.

[@halo007Mex]

In an alternative universe : If you push the 3 hidden buttons you can call an orbital strike

people need to learn what the definition of easter egg is.

[@flameconvoy7424]

“A message, image or feature hidden in software, a video game, a film, or another, usually electronic medium.”

[@persongrope]

Lots of things we used to describe as "glitches" like the invisible staircase in Halo 2 or the scarab gun were actually intentionally put in the game for players to hopefully find. So they technically are easter eggs. No point mincing words tho. I will say this easter egg/glitch is way easier to complete than most other old glitches/easter eggs

[@Enderwave22]

It's an egg full of candies found on easter

[@Wwclips-Weee]

I saw one of those pads later on while you’re trying to save the Pilot, it was the one on top of the tall building inside the base. I saw it and said “hmm wonder if you can stand here” I activated it and didn’t see any others, if anyone knows what it does if you find the rest (I’m guessing you also have to find three) I would appreciate it

I NEW THAT BUTTON DID SOMETHING!! Thank you for showing what it did

[@therandomnessstrikes1435]

By the way, you don’t have to activate the cannon in order to grab the Scorpion gun. I use the scorpion gun in my heroic save, only problem is, if you swap it for something else it is gone for good. Laos, you can only grab the scorpion gun during the outpost Tremonius mission, after that it is no longer there

[@simon2493]

Orbital strike is Easter egg but not the gun it's self it's game engine fault as for what I can understand every gun need to spawn somewhere so that the player can use it in this instance scorpion gun, so what devs did was that they have forgotten to make it unpickable

[@ronaldwhite1730]

thank - you.

[@guitarwizard117]

Has anyone else gotten stuck with the scorpion gun? I can't melee anymore but i have not been able to get rid of it at all, kind of kills the game when all i can fire is scorpion rounds lol

[@The_Stumbler]

So the cannon is bugged to hell, either due to it being balanced or left in. You should still be able to swap to your secondary.

[@GhostChild808]

The gun doesn't let you mantle or melee either. It has you in a carrying your gun pose without a visible weapon shown. Plus you cannot kill yourself with the shots too. Unless you go to nearby fusion coils or explosives then yes, you can kill yourself with it. Also its pretty funny in cutscenes too.

[@m.metelometelo478]

Guys can someone help me please? I love Halo I have played them all. I bought a gamer portable and brought the Xbox Game Pass, and I installed all the Halo. But I finished Infinite last week on Normal and started another on Legendary. When I opened that big gate and got out, I went right back there to activate the first button. When going to the second inside the ship, I died twice but I got there and pressed the second button. I went with the harpoon attached to the outside of the ship to the cannons button and activated the third one, but the problem is that at the top of the cannon, the "prompt" to pick up the Cannon weapon did NOT appear. I did restart mission, did it all over again without dying and still the same. NOTHING APPEARS TO CATCH THE CANNON WEAPON. I still haven't closed the base for myself so as not to record the game with the base already mine but without the Cannon weapon. I repeat the mission and DO NOT APPEAR IN IT. Can anyone tell me how do i do it now? I don't have much time because I work outside my country. That's why I really want to grab this Cannon weapon to have the same pleasure as you blowing up the Boss's faster. I really appreciate your help...

[@maxmoedano5280]

It was a bug it has been patched

[@imdookie6336]

Is this worth it trying to complete LASO?

[@radosawrudolf4931]

Definitely, it has infinite ammo and has a blast radius so I think it's a very viable option.

[@michaelzhang9806]

This thing is stupidly overpowered and it’s hilarious, as long as you don’t accidentally drop it by grabbing another weapon you can keep it through the entire game. Not to mention that it can one shot every single non boss enemy and only takes a few hits to kill bosses and the like. The only downside is that it can only be fired when jumping most of the time due to the projectile’s massive hitbox hitting the ground

[@Ivan-ml7pq]

Yes tbh it's a must on LASO can't throw grenades with it but I find having an energy sword(duelist is better) in the other hand for shield is so far the best way to go it's only problem is you have to usually jump before you shoot because it comes from the feet

[@jckcc]

Kind of cheating though, but it doesn't block achievements and they also forgot to turn them off when you use beneficial skulls (like Bandana) so I guess it doesn't matter. Achievements are for yourself anyways. If getting it this way makes you proud, then by all means. Socially, it makes them worthless when everybody knows one can cheat to get them.

[@epic7783]

@@jckcc they didn't forget to turn them off when using bandana because it's required to do laso

The scorpion gun can only be picked up while you are still in the mission. The location is part of the open world, but you can no longer access it after you leave the mission. It is most obviously not a bug.
