The best Halo map.

YourACoolGuy · 2012-10-04T21:26:04+00:00

Fucking super jumps. Blowing up the barrels to get the sniper. Carefully making that jump down off the ledge to get to the sword. Using different jumps to juke people out. I could go through and around that whole maps all while looking down. This map was the best, but then again Halo 2 in general is my favorite halo game.

HogwartsNeedsWifi · 2012-10-04T23:03:56+00:00

Snipe 1 Snipe 2 Snipe 3, Top Mid, Bottom Mid, Br 1, Br 2, Br 3, sword, library, Green room, Blue room, top blue.

SquareSoft · 2012-10-04T23:35:51+00:00

Reddit is so ready for Halo 4.

Kaon_Particle · 2012-10-05T00:12:39+00:00

this was always my fav. This may or may not have been due to the fact that player one spawned next to the overshield and had a free run to the rocket.

Chronza · 2012-10-05T00:08:51+00:00

I'm sorry but Hang 'em High was the best Halo Map ever.

wallyworld560 · 2012-10-04T23:18:19+00:00

Sidewinder wins it (from the original Halo!)

The_Director · 2012-10-05T02:23:13+00:00

Imgur Mirror, dropbox doesn't like heavy traffic.

Smackover · 2012-10-04T21:56:11+00:00

Sorry, but that isn't. This is the best Halo map.

A_wild_fusa_appeared · 2012-10-04T22:34:48+00:00

Not sure, ascension with the worlds cheapest sniping spot ever would have to disagree with you.

OhhhhhDirty · 2012-10-05T03:04:36+00:00

RRXYYRRXYY, BXR.

Damnit I miss H2. And Lockout was an awesome map, I still remember how pumped I'd get every time it popped up in the multiplayer lobby. There was a much greater skill gap in H2 than H3, in H2 it was much easier to get killed and much more fast paced.

I wish they would remake it with updated graphics, I bet people would play the shit out of it.

Annihil8or · 2012-10-05T02:48:29+00:00

Before all these high speed internets there was a test of teamwork as well as individual skill known as 2v2. The greatest maps for such conquests are as follows:

Damnation
Hang em High
Chill Out

Anyone who played Halo 1 competitively (AGP Circuit) knows that Blood Gulch was for noobs that wanted to drive cars and / or run freely without getting killed. That's why XboxConnect was always littered with noobs hosting rooms titled "BG CTF bring many!! 8v8 or 4v4!!!1!"

stniesen · 2012-10-04T23:06:45+00:00

Nah, Midship FTW.

abiobob · 2012-10-05T02:54:18+00:00

Wow can't believe how bad that looks nowadays, still my favorite map though.

Agreed and even its remakes were good.

windg0d · 2012-10-05T00:04:18+00:00

I really liked foundry. So many memorable game types. So many different permutations of the map. So many creative builds. So many truly infuriating yet fun games of infection. Dig to china will always have a place in my gaming heart.

iownachalkboard7 · 2012-10-05T02:14:32+00:00

Zanzibar/Last Resort.

The best games of Halo I ever played were on that and Blood Gulch.

Valiant91 · 2012-10-05T02:57:03+00:00

I'm sorry but this map would like to have a word with you.

so many good memories...

Loserblast · 2012-10-05T03:06:12+00:00

The Halo games have had their fair share of great maps, Lockout among them, but I don't think anything can top Blood Gulch.

"No fuck you! Lockout 1v1!"

Castigar2000 · 2012-10-04T22:31:51+00:00

I had so many good times on Halo 2, but ugh, best? The entire thing is grey and everybody just grabbed a shotgun/sword, crawled up the walls in the middle room and camped everyone who went in there. Let's not forget jumping down a hole in one of the upstairs rooms and being instantly raped by three guys waiting below, and the fact that grenade spamming was rampant here since the whole map was pretty much small, isolated rooms and corridors.

Foundation and Headlong, though, ohh yes.

theCaptain_D · 2012-10-04T21:39:57+00:00

This was the ultimate map for knocking around with your friends on splitscreen.

tk-not21 · 2012-10-04T22:43:48+00:00

The worst for me...

I remember other than this super awesome stuff; when everyone's XBL Motto ha something to do with "Five (Stars) BR!"

There is no best Halo 2 map, only some that are slightly better than others, but Sanctuary and Ivory Tower were seriously pure gold.

Walshy used to dominate this map....

mrfloyd2008 · 2012-10-05T02:13:26+00:00

the best halo map is de_dust2 obvs

youravgguy · 2012-10-05T02:18:07+00:00

For halo 2 i agree with you, although i've spent a lot of time on headlong trying to push the water jug onto the banshe then to carefully transfer that into the second level of the base to get it on the block there. All to get the golden warthog which never showed. Ohhh and getting out of the map with the rocket glitch was awesome. H3 had some awesome maps, honestly you really can't beat the pit, just an amazing balanced map to play. Also narrows was awesome, aswell as guradian. The little trick jumps you can do to gain small advantages in halo makes the maps so fun. Bungie did make some pretty dam well balanced and awesome maps.

Beeeeaaaars · 2012-10-05T02:22:44+00:00

Action Sack, tug of war on this puppy in Halo 3 was the most fun way to waste time ever.

YeltsinYerMouth · 2012-10-05T02:26:20+00:00

Gonna rock out with my Lockout.

LastGladius · 2012-10-05T02:26:49+00:00

Give my left foot to be able to play Halo 2 Multiplayer on Xbox, those were some of the best times I have ever had.

ImAngry · 2012-10-05T02:31:09+00:00

for halo 4 i wish they could make an exact replica of this map. no bullshit blackout map or whatever the fuck it was called in halo 3 or whatever.

Face55 · 2012-10-05T02:32:24+00:00

This map is one of the reasons it's been hard for me to get into newer Halo games as much as I was into the multiplayer of Halo 2. It was just such a good map, with so many interesting dynamics, nothing in the later games seemed to hold up. Even the remake of it in Halo 3 didn't fit the bill to me

Kill5witcH · 2012-10-05T02:35:47+00:00

Nope, xbc - BG - CTF.

Eyeless_Sid · 2012-10-05T02:52:59+00:00

Blood Gulch or Timberland or any of the Halo CE maps would like a word with you.

Clicked expecting this one. Was not disappointed.

MEGUSTA132 · 2012-10-05T03:03:51+00:00

The first time I ever played a Halo game was on this map; this was what made me fall in love with Halo. I do believe the last Halo 2 multiplayer server was on this map, too. Oh, the feels.

Amytherocklobster · 2012-10-05T03:07:12+00:00

Umm no, sadly not, in fact it sucks a big fat hairy dick. I hated that level since I was a kid. Blood gultch!

All day, every day.

yaners · 2012-10-05T03:42:01+00:00

I signed in just to upvote this. I agree 100%. Single flag CTF was the shit on this map (running upwards to the BR tower from elbow to capture....epic)

mbotto · 2012-10-05T03:46:08+00:00

I'm late, but it'll always was my favorite The other Halo CE

Blood Gulch anyone?

CJ_Guns · 2012-10-05T03:47:22+00:00

Halo 2 was one of the best games I ever played. Sure, the campaign was short (but still pretty good because Bungie) but I spent hundreds of hours on multiplayer. Every day when I came home from school it was homework, then Halo with all of my friends.

I even lost my virginity around Halo 2. It's a pretty funny story.

Hightech90 · 2012-10-05T03:50:51+00:00

Through 3 years of LAN parties, this map was played by us 95% of the time. Best map hands down. Damn do I miss those days.

Cdwollan · 2012-10-05T03:59:30+00:00

First off, you're wrong. Second off, this post took no energy whatsoever.

mrbak3r · 2012-10-05T03:59:54+00:00

Holy shit, were the graphics really that bad? I loved that map though!

Furr shurr.

HORSExFUCKER · 2012-10-05T04:05:35+00:00

Sidewinder is my vote for best map. Love ctf there

hdadeathly · 2012-10-05T04:07:54+00:00

I loved Lockout. And that shitty remake Blackout just didn't feel the same to me. A couple underrated maps were Terminal and Ascension.

DollaDillz · 2012-10-05T04:08:38+00:00

only with shotguns

hylianknight · 2012-10-05T04:08:55+00:00

The scary thing is that the instant I saw that picture I could run through the entire map in my head.

Everyone knows what it's like to know every word of a song you haven't heard since you were a teenager, but from now on people will also be doing that with video game levels.

TheFoxGoesMoo · 2012-10-05T04:09:04+00:00

Is Halo 2 multiplayer still online? Or is there only compaign now?

ZeroTheHer0 · 2012-10-05T04:09:29+00:00

This is wrong and you should feel bad.

alchemisthemo · 2012-10-05T04:20:59+00:00

All i gotta say is sidewinder, and you all know it.

carachangren · 2012-10-05T04:21:26+00:00

Blood gultch please. My old roommates and I used to have sick capture the flag games on that. Playing at college on the network and finding random xboxs full of people to play was perfect. Oh, and the xboxs always had the funny default names like Saucy and Dopey.

jbmonster · 2012-10-05T04:23:30+00:00

Correction. The best Halo "2" map.

Tombosley7 · 2012-10-05T04:25:15+00:00

Mkidder56 · 2012-10-05T04:27:35+00:00

And Chiron TL 34, oh the surprise of a shotgun to your face as you come through a portal... and Sidewinder. And bang bang boom. boom boom kitty fuck.

TbanksIV · 2012-10-05T04:29:06+00:00

The pit, Guardian, Countdown, Lockout, Blood gulch, and Beaver Creek.

Halo has had some of the best maps period.

lyrradmelon · 2012-10-05T04:29:09+00:00

Bloodgulch is better in design, but not in fun...this map...regardless of it not having the importance of me not remembering the name, is a great map that is more exciting for being a boss.

lazzarus979 · 2012-10-05T04:29:26+00:00

I played it on the computer a lot more so my favorites have to be Timberland and Danger Canyon. Alongside Chiron, Blood Gulch, Boarding Action, and Rat Race. Pretty much every Halo: CE map was fucking amazing. Halo 2 and 3 had good ones too but I think none of the ones in Reach were too fun. Just because they were all story maps in the core game, and none of them were too different. I cannot fucking wait for Halo 4 though, I just about cream myself whenever something new comes out about it.

ja_bour · 2012-10-05T04:31:34+00:00

My friends and I still get together occasionally to system link our Xbox's up and get a little 4vs4 going on...this was the only map we ever played. As you can imagine 8 people on this map spilled a lot of master chief blood.

denta87 · 2012-10-05T04:32:25+00:00

I stopped playing after halo 2....

ninjablade15 · 2012-10-05T04:38:48+00:00

As soon as I saw the title my thought was "this better be lockout or idk what to think of the world" glad to see never a reason to doubt.

gr3nade · 2012-10-05T04:41:44+00:00

That is not a picture of Blood Gulch. You lied to me.

MrAceOfSpades · 2012-10-05T04:42:16+00:00

I upvoted this so hard I cracked my iPad screen.

irondeath · 2012-10-05T04:45:43+00:00

Lockout and Midship are the best. Its hard to choose just one best map.

3stacks · 2012-10-05T04:46:43+00:00

I posted this months ago. Granted it was in different context.

necroden · 2012-10-05T04:48:07+00:00

I remember playing a 5-6 hour long game with my friend at the time. We were hoping we'd end up seeing the mythical Ghost of Lockout.

We never did, but we certainly had a lot of fun.

Lord_Razgriz · 2012-10-05T04:48:59+00:00

Hated this map to an almost unhealthy level. Not sure why, but I never seem to like the maps the majority of the community does, regardless of how I perform on them.

jachreja · 2012-10-05T04:55:29+00:00

I would give pretty much the price of a retail game alone just to have that feeling again from playing original lockout on the next halo. Not a crappy remake either.

redilred · 2012-10-05T04:56:48+00:00

Sadly i hated H2 and this map with a passion. Personal preference i guess.

pitrob80 · 2012-10-05T04:57:19+00:00

Imma let you finish, but blood gulch is the best of all time!

foehammer23 · 2012-10-05T05:00:10+00:00

My favorite story about this map occurred after someone challenged me to a 1v1 after he lost an XBL match. I had been playing this game religiously, so I knew how people spawn on the map intuitively: if I'm on this side, you'll spawn on that side and vice versa. After start I dominate him, peeking around corners almost like I knew he would be there. The long views on top and bottom were perfect for this, and I would pop off headshots like it was nobody's business. Also, every time the idiot used the gravlift, I'd hear it and automatically aim at his head. The score ended something like 5 to 25, with me winning.

After the match, he called me a cheater and supposedly "reported me for hacking." I just laughed. Goddamn I loved Halo 2.

Edddzzzz · 2012-10-05T05:01:36+00:00

Swords only on this map.

Arma104 · 2012-10-05T05:04:42+00:00

Bloodgulch.

BillowOfSmoke · 2012-10-05T05:06:23+00:00

Hang em high, wizard, blood gulch.

el_polar_bear · 2012-10-05T05:07:34+00:00

Because it uses all three textures and both rooms in the same map.

DCdictator · 2012-10-05T05:11:43+00:00

I have literally played this map with my 2 bros from high school on average like 7 fridays and saturdays (total combined number for those who want to assert I do fuzzy maths) since like sophomore year of highschool. Only slayer, only random weapons. Rocket launchers are so gay on this map.

skringas · 2012-10-05T05:15:49+00:00

The Ghost of Lockout

banned_andeh · 2012-10-05T05:16:58+00:00

Speaking of Halo 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCPhIYTKv-Y for some reason my life revolved around this for a few months in high school. My obsession was making these obnoxious noises while trying to end games with zero shots fired. Some players were paralyzed with laughter. Definitely had some 20-0 games with 0 shots fired.

FueledByBacon · 2012-10-05T05:17:13+00:00

Motherfucking, Lockout.

Feelgd · 2012-10-05T05:17:59+00:00

Shotguns on Lockout was all I played. Ever.

popcorncolonel · 2012-10-05T05:18:03+00:00

Had a shitload of fun on The Pit.

Broken_Envoke · 2012-10-05T05:23:29+00:00

Loved the map in Halo 2

Absolutely hated in Halo 3

In Halo 3 the map had unnecessary corners/bumps everywhere on the walls that you could get stuck on.

Annoyed the hell out of me.

abbstrakt · 2012-10-05T05:25:25+00:00

1 on 1 sword ball. Super fun on this map

eric0rr · 2012-10-05T05:26:02+00:00

The bottom half got a little hostage negotation-ish with battle rifles, but It was definitely the best map.

eric0rr · 2012-10-05T05:29:42+00:00

This map made for the best no shields, battle rifle fights.

IXIKMACIXI · 2012-10-05T05:31:57+00:00

One of the best for sure. But I gotta give it to Ascension. Spent countless hours playing Infection hiding in the towers. Brings me back

Spydiggity · 2012-10-05T05:39:21+00:00

Not even close to the best.

Henry125 · 2012-10-05T05:43:39+00:00

who wants a halo 2 remake? same engine same maps just updated graphics on xbl

Fushi4 · 2012-10-05T05:45:13+00:00

zombies on Halo 2...pushing those boxes around. trying to get out of the map from room 1... super jumping. Little kids not switching teams after getting killed. And the always forgotten "What's the shape of Italy?" question, pre-boot.

EDM305 · 2012-10-05T05:46:45+00:00

You guys should get Halo 2 for the PC. You can plug in your xbox 360 controller into a USB port and play it almost like the old days. There's no super jumps sadly, but all of the other glitches remain! I was playing Zombies on Containment and I did the glitch where you jump behind the invisible wall on that ledge in one of the bases. Then going up the mountain, nobody knew wtf I was doing lol

metaman72 · 2012-10-05T05:47:06+00:00

that doesn't look like Bloodgulch to me.

jsnoogs · 2012-10-05T05:49:01+00:00

What was the name of the map in Halo 1 that was 2 sides on a spaceship that could be teleported to and from?

WildlifeAnalysis · 2012-10-05T06:13:42+00:00

Halo 1: Battle Creek.

Halo 2: Lockout.

Halo 3: Guardian.

Halo Reach: Sword Base.

Blood Gulch is best pony.

This isn't Chiron.....

Danulas · 2012-10-05T06:36:18+00:00

Dropbox isn't happy, but I just know that's Lockout.

Endevour · 2012-10-05T07:26:07+00:00

Blood Gulch in Halo 1. Don't hate.

JotnarSurt · 2012-10-05T08:13:07+00:00

You know your first two games are better when the only decent maps on the following two installments are remakes or player made. H1 & 2 have some of the best competitive maps from any console based fps ever. People still play H1 (and H2) on XBC but I can guarantee you no one is going to be playing Halo3 or Reach 10 years after their release. I had such high hopes for H4 but after watching gameplay I'm not getting my hopes up. I liked it better when my spartan didn't run or have the ability to see through walls. I also enjoyed it when more emphasis was placed on gameplay and not gimmicky features or pretty maps. Can't really blame them, though, the online community has really exploded and they have to cater to such a larger and more casual audience. End declining Halo franchise rant
