The ONI Base is the most poorly designed office building in history.
You got four floors right? Now I mean, I guess in the year 2552 they think, "Oh elevators, I guess we won't use that anymore!" So what the hell do they do? 500 years in the future? They put air vents and yellow lifts. What the hell? What if I was carrying some coffee or something, I go up one of those things and, what do you know, my coffee goes all over the place. It spills on my shirt, my pants, that memo the boss needed, my briefcase, EVERYTHING!
Why can't they just make some adjacent bridges? I don't understand this at all. OR JUST USE SOME GODDAMN ELEVATORS! Also, whats with the big gravity lift in the middle? It's almost as worse as the yellow lift. Say I need to get to the second floor, but the airvent is a piece of crap so I decide to use this thing. Plus I mean, my office is right there, what can go wrong? So I jump in it and I completely miss the bridge and fall and break my legs.
What the hell is wrong with ONI? Is this the Olympics? Why does getting to the bridge need to be a game? Don't it's workers just sue the place? I mean coffee spills everywhere, you break your damn legs, I mean everything just goes wrong here. Also there's no chairs, what the hell? Do I have to stand up when I'm writing that big tax report? What a terrible building.

The campaign ONI Sword Base would probably be a better choice for you.

If the OP gets reported, I will be sad. This thread is funny and its so true. I especially liked the part about someone holding a cup of coffee. In fact I'm still laughing.

*to co-worker* "Hey, have you seen the boss around? I'm trying to get him to re-asses the building plans for this place because getting around is an unbearable chore an-" *A thudding sound is accompanied by liquid splashing, shattering glass, and hyperactive cursing of one's mother* "Ah, looks like he's arrived at the top floor. I'll go see him now."

In the campaign its more practical, and mm are [u]based[/u] off campaign maps, not the other way around, so really these air vents are for battle purposes only.

Thank you good sir, for making my -blam!- Monday enjoyable.

In the multiplayer version there are two captured covenant devices. One of them is a gravity lift. The yellow lift seems to be a human atempt to at making one. The red version seems like an early concept of one. We only saw a few rooms in the entire research facility. Maybe one of those doors was an elevator.

Jetpacks.... in the future, business men use jetpacks to *puts on sunglasses* Reach these places easier. and coffee spilling? That's preposterous, this is the future and in the future, adults have harnessed the ability to use, you guessed it [url=http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_W--P82JKhGA/SqlreGxrjmI/AAAAAAAAB00/Vu-O8q87_7c/s400/sippy-cup.jpg]sippy cups[/url] to prevent spilling failure.

Look a bit more carefully in Campaign: There aren't any lifts whatsoever. So canonically, we don't have to worry about coffee spills and a bad mishap whilst getting to the top floor..
-
and what about countdown, has the exact same lift problem
-
Hmmm... about that red lift. Was it built to make me slam against the wall and smash my face on the ceiling?
-
I bet that that big center grav lift killed more marines than the covenant. And what's with the red lift? I shouldn't have to crawl through a vent to get upstairs! Did the unsc forget how to build stairs?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] dangermonkey77 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] FallenZodiac [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] dangermonkey77 i think that part of the base was defense only[/quote] Marines will still break their legs if they miss the gravity lift. Still inconvenient and ill-designed. Say theres a hostage on the fourth floor, I got to use every goddamn lift and thing in the base instead of just sprinting to the top, or once again, USING SOME GODDAMN ELEVATORS! [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Deadlock v3 The purple lift is of covenant nature :D[/quote] Then it needs to be removed immediately from the premises.[/quote] calm down bro, you wanted info so i gave you some. do you haz friends?[/quote]The Anti Troll demandes you shutup before you rui- oh wait yoou already ruined everything.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] angello22 lol you forgot the red air vent where you get slammed to a wall at the end[/quote] Then coffee is all over your face.

That's the Multiplayer version, the one in the campaign is the real one.

This is extremely funny, thank you.
