In search of an Easter egg
But there are some users who only need to hear challenging and impossibility words to activate Challenge Mode, and this is what happened to Rocket Sloth and Ducain23, two Halo fans with Twitch channels dedicated to the saga who didn’t hesitate to investigate. What was hiding behind this Easter egg. There were several fans trying to figure out the secret about the level, but since no one got anything, Patrick Wren decided to give another clue in the form of a poem:
Four Spartans begins at the station
To search for a sense of eviction
To get out of the gate
Simply stand there and wait
The term of his appointment
Four Spartans start from the station
To search for a feeling of eviction
To run out of the door
Just stand there and wait
The duration of your mission
The poem hid some clear instructions: They had to play 4 players In a cooperative, wait at the door and do so for a while to be hired. The banners quickly fell into the fact that the timing should be tied to the appointment of 117 key leaders, so hopefully the wait will be long. 117 seconds.

How to open go-kart mode in Halo 5
The poem turned out to be very effective. Finally, the viewers were able to unlock the secret kart mode, and for this they only had to quickly jump to the first door of the level once the game started, as the Easter Egg would only be activated in the first two minutes. Of course, they did not succeed the first time, since not knowing the limit of two minutes, they kept trying without restarting the game, something that he warned, fortunately, by calling the live broadcast they were doing.
This means that players will only have 3 seconds to move into the hole, and another 117 seconds to wait for the mode to activate: After doing so, the four players will be instantly transported to an area fixed on each of them by the nicks. Now you just have to complete the circuit and finish first to earn a good rocket launcher.
