| '''Cold Storage''' is a ''Halo 3'' [[multiplayer]] map, and a remake of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' map ''[[Chill Out]]''. It was released for free on [[Bungie Day|July 7]], [[2008]]. | | This is a new map announced by Bungie at [[MLG]] San Diego on June 14, 2008,<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/Blog.aspx?mode=news#cid14227</ref> '''Cold Storage''' is a ''[[Halo 3]]'' remake of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' map [[Chill Out]]. It was previously known as Smuggler.<ref>http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=22102065&postRepeater1-p=3</ref> |
|
| |
|
| ==Setting==
| | [[Bungie]] made an official statement online about the level in their Bungie Weekly update on 20th of June. It was first shown in an exhibition game between Bungie members, Lukems and Shishka and MLG Pros, Karma and Legend<ref>http://www.mlgpro.com/?q=node/219030</ref> which served as the map's debut. No release date or other details of its relaese have been given yet. |
| Cold Storage is set in the [[Flood]] [[Flood containment facility|research facilities]] deep in the bowels of [[Installation 05]]. Scattered across the surface of Delta Halo were containment facilities designed to continually analyze Flood samples kept in various states of development. This particular facility specialized in determining the extremophilic thresholds of Flood-infected specimens before 2401 Penitent Tangent's lax oversight led to a containment breach.{{Ref/Reuse|HU}} A [[Unidentified ancilla (Installation 05)|large Monitor]], attached to the ceiling, can be seen on the map and will track players in its vicinity. A [[Flood tank form]] can be seen in containment in one of the cryo tanks, while [[Pod infector]]s roam free on the exterior of the map.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Design==
| | It is set in a [[Forerunner]] facility, with one screen showing [[Flood]] bio-mass, and by the "transmissions" revealed in several Bungie Weekly Updates, it may be evident that Cold Storage is located somewhere on [[Delta Halo]], possibly a [[Flood Containment Facility]]. |
| Being derived from [[Chill Out|a ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' map]], many changes needed to be made to Cold Storage to bring it into line with ''Halo 3''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s updated physics and graphic design. Many of the jumps and railings have been tweaked, like those on ''[[Blackout]]'', but they stay well within the layout of ''Chill Out''.
| |
|
| |
|
| The Cold Storage Monitor in the ceiling follows players' movements, but will stop once they leave the room. The monitor will even observe invisible players which can be used to your advantage or theirs.
| | {{quote|Smuggler was the code name for Cold Storage. It will be included, along with Purple Reign and Moonbase Alpha, in the next map pack|Faerr, a Bungie.net member}} |
|
| |
|
| The map's mood is considered "competitive", and it is best played with small [[Free-For-All|FFA]] [[Slayer]] games or [[Team Doubles]]. Combat tends to be rather chaotic, and because of the multitude of [[teleporter]]s, it is very easy to get from one area to another and smite your opponents. The only noticeable change to the map's weapon layout is that Chill Out's [[M6D magnum|M6D]] has been replaced with a [[BR55HB battle rifle|battle rifle]]. | | {{quote|The first sentence is a fact. The second one is an incorrect assumption|Luke Smith}} |
|
| |
|
| ===Strategies===
| | This implies that one of the three aforementioned maps will not be included in the third map pack. It would seem as if Luke was referring to Cold Storage being in the next map pack as the incorrect assumption, though it is very possible he was referring to one of the other maps mentioned by Faerr. With "Bungie Day" coming up on July 7th, it is possible Cold Storage will be released for free since it looks content complete and it is the only unreleased DLC map that has been revealed by Bungie. |
| * Maintaining control of the top of the map is key to victory. But make sure that you have one of your teammates watching your rear. Due the many teleporters on the map, it is easy to be flanked.
| |
| * Having the high ground with the [[SRS99D-S2 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]] is very effective on Free-For-All matches.
| |
| * Predicting your opponent's spawn is very important, especially for [[Team SWAT]].
| |
| * It is very simple to find, "invisible," aka people who have [[Active camouflage|active camo]] engaged. Simply follow the large monitor when it switches back and forth between you and the other player.
| |
| * The bridge in the middle can be jumped on providing easier access to the other side.
| |
| * Don't go to the lower areas unless absolutely necessary, it is easy to get bombarded with rockets or grenades
| |
| * Hiding on the platform next to the rockets can surprise anyone that tries to secure the rockets.
| |
| * If you jump from the ramp to the wall with all the empty test tubes inside, you will stick to a narrow ledge. Here you can be easily killed, but a lot of players don't bother to look up, giving you some easy assassinations.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Forge=== | | ==Smuggler== |
| There are only a handful of new [[Forge objects]] available for Cold Storage, including Energy Barriers similar to the ones on ''[[Avalanche]]'' and [[Forge Filter]]s that affect the color and overall tone of the map. The [[soccer ball]] is once again included, and the [[M274 Mongoose|Mongoose]] and [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]] can be placed in as well, though the map is not especially designed for the vehicles. It is the only map that isn't from a map pack that has color filters.
| | Before the map was revealed, it was known as Smuggler. Two transmissions about it were posted on Bungie.net. |
|
| |
|
| The [[M7057 flamethrower|flamethrower]] is available for use, but can only be added in [[Forge]]. [[Teleporter]]s have a new design to them, as they now have a circular base instead of the usual three-pronged base. They also have blue-violet color rather than the usual green aura.
| | In the Bungie Weekly Update 5/30/08<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13931</ref>, the following transmission was shown: |

| In the 5/30/08 Bungie Weekly Update, a mysterious transmission was posted attached to the end of the update, detailing the initial outbreak of the Flood on Installation 05 due to the lax containment measures on the part of [[2401 Penitent Tangent]].<ref name="report1">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13931 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 5/30/08'']</ref> On 06/06/08, another transmission was attached to the end of another weekly update.<ref name="report2">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=14034 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 06/06/08'']</ref> The logs were later posted on [[Halo Waypoint]].<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/oni-files/cold-storage '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Cold Storage Reports'']</ref>

| }}
| | ===Theories=== |
| === Theories === | | The mention of [[Installation 05]]'s monitor, [[2401 Penitent Tangent]], would seem to suggest that the map would take place somewhere on [[Delta Halo]]. |
| *The first time stamp 2512332 hours, 14 minutes, 6 seconds is the equivalent of 286 years, 9 months, 18 days, 4 hours, 48 minutes, 20 seconds. The second time stamp is equivalent to 99,779 years, 6 months, 21 days, 21 hours, 36 minutes, 40 seconds. The margins of error time stamp is equivalent to '''7''' years, a reference to Bungie's love of [[seven]].
| |
| *It is possible that the "[[slipstream space|slipspace]] transportation conduits" are part of the teleportation grid on the Halos, which were used by [[343 Guilty Spark (level)|343 Guilty Spark]] and [[Cortana]] on [[Installation 04]], and taken over by the [[Gravemind]] on Installation 05. It is also possible that the "slipspace transportation conduits" are referring to the teleporters on the map. That would mean that they each lead to another teleporter on the map because they are in "recursive mode". It would also explain how the Flood form from the broken test tube managed to escape and infest the area outside, even though the facility has no openings or exits to escape from.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Trivia==
| | The second timestamp seems to imply that this was when the [[Flood]] broke free on Delta Halo the first time, since it equals approximately 99,779 years. Perhaps this map shows how, considering this and the mention of how the best laid plans can fail as stated by Luke in the quote above. |
| [[File:Floodtank.jpg|thumb|A player stuck inside the test tube.]] | |
| ===Production notes===
| |
| *Cold Storage, known in development as ''Smuggler'', was first hinted at in the 05/23/08 Bungie Weekly Update.<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13824 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 5/23/08''] - ''Before I went on holiday, Smuggler was a fun foray into rat-in-a-cage levels of carnage. Around each corner, atop each walkway, or camping the top ledge of a middle room was a Shishka, a Sketch, a Frankie or some other unnamable, jarring horror. Upon returning, Smuggler has become a picture perfect nearly majestic play space with sinister undertones. Pristine construction is foiled by a staunch reminder of how often the best laid plans can fail.''</ref> In the subsequent weekly updates for the next two weeks, the Cold Storage Reports would be released hinting at the map's circumstances and setting.{{Ref/Reuse|report1}}{{Ref/Reuse|report2}} Cold Storage was officially announced by [[Bungie]] at [[Major League Gaming|MLG]] San Diego on June 14, 2008, in which it was first shown in an exhibition game between Bungie members; Lukems and Shishka, and MLG Pros; Karma and Legend,.<ref>[http://www.mlgpro.com/?q=node/219030 '''MLG Pro''']</ref><ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=14291 '''Bungie.net''': ''Shishka and Luke's MLG Wrap-Up'']</ref> The next few updates would continue to show more screenshots and images of the map,<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=14347 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 06/20/08'']</ref><ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=14472 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update:06/27/08'']</ref><ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=14556 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Humpday: Cold War'']</ref> before it was announced to release on [[Bungie Day]].<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?cid=14568 '''Bungie.net''': ''Bungie Weekly Update: 07/03/08'']</ref> On the week of release, a [[Halo 3 ViDoc: And on the Seven7th Day...|ViDoc]] and a breakdown were posted on Bungie.net.<ref name="Q&A">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=14640 '''Bungie.net''': ''Cold Storage Q&A'']</ref>
| |
| *Cold Storage was chosen for development as, at the time, there were few maps of a Forerunner theme being developed. The idea to bring the Flood in came as inspiration from ideas briefly touched on in ''Halo 2'', and a desire to explore the concept more. One of the goals with the level was to make the majority of the level's colour come from lighting to create visually distinct rooms. The Flood being contained outside the playable area, for the most part, was due to not wanting to change the map's layout too much, and due to the map [[Isolation]] already allowing players to see the Flood up close and personal.{{Ref/Reuse|Q&A}}
| |
| *It was joked about in the ViDoc, [[Halo 3 ViDoc: And on the Seven7th Day...|And On the Seventh Day]], which Bungie had wanted to call this map ''Cold Sore''. Bungie said, however, that this name wouldn't work.
| |
| *A part of this map's "Walls" were, until recently, used as Bungie.net's wallpaper. They are folded out structures that seem to be power cells of some sort.
| |
|
| |
|
| ===Miscellaneous=== | | ==Terminal Messages== |
| *The large monitor is one of very few objects that [[Type-2 spike grenade|spike grenades]] will <u>not</u> stick to, just bouncing off instead.
| | <center><gallery caption="These are the transmitted messages in a [[Terminal]] version." widths="150px" heights="100px" perrow="6"> |
| *Oddly, this map has [[tag]]s for the [[invincibility]] equipment in it. The item can be [[Modding|modded]] onto the level.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Cq1_RlxrrQ#t=0m51s '''YouTube:''' halo 3 modded map pack ''(0:51)'']</ref>
| | Image:Page001.jpg |
| *The Flood on this map will sometimes react to the players. Some of these reactions are:
| | Image:Page002.jpg |
| **If you stand at the Flood Room windows for long enough, some Pod infectors will come over and scrape at the glass as if trying to attack you.
| | Image:Page003.jpg |
| **If you stare at the Tank Form long enough it will twitch as if it's trying to growl at you, then continue to remain motionless leading to the belief that this Tank Form is merely a prisoner and not a dead test subject.
| | Image:Page004.jpg |
| *Using the [[Forge turret glitch]], it is possible to get inside the Tank Form's cryo-container. Once inside, your player model will pass through the Tank Form, yet when you melee it in the mouth, it will make squishing noises. Shooting it in the mouth will make "Flood blood" come out. Shooting anywhere else will give you the same effect as shooting a wall. [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|Plasma grenades]] can stick to the Tank Form as well, with the exception of the head.
| | Image:Page005.jpg |
| *The Turret Glitch can also be used to access the area with Pod infectors; immediately exiting Edit Mode after bypassing the glass windows can in some cases prevent a player from dying.

| | |
| | ==Trivia== |
| | *Cold Storage is one of the first multiplayer maps to feature even a slightest sight of a Flood combatant (let alone ''any combatant from Campaign mode''), although it's deceased. |
| | *The first time stamp '2512332 hours, 14 minutes, 6 seconds' is the equivalent of 290 years, 7 months, 14 minutes, 6 seconds. The second timestamp is equivalent to 99,779 years, 204 days, 6 hours, 4 minutes, 46 seconds. |
| | *It is most likely that this level is a Forerunner containment structure on Delta Halo, because 2401 Penitent Tangent was in charge. The Flood may have broken free in the facility and the computer monitoring send a message to 2401 Penitent Tangent. When it had received no message back, it reported directly to [[Installation 00]]. |
| | *It is also possible that the "[[slipspace]] transportation conduits" is referring to the teleportation grid on the halos, which 343 Guilty Spark used on Installation 04, and that Gravemind took control over via 2401 Penitent Tangent on Installation 05. |
| | *[[LF.Xx.3273]] is the Forerunner term for the Flood Super Cell.<ref>[[Bestiarum]]</ref> |
| | *Cold Storage will be the third Halo 3 map to be completely indoors, the first being [[The Pit]] and the second being [[Foundry]]. |
| | *Cold Storage is the second map in Halo 3 to include teleporters. However, the teleporters are blue instead of common green. The multiplayer map Gemini has also blue teleporters. |
| | *In the two screenshots released on 6/20/08, one shows a Flood Tank Form being stored in what appears to be a cryogenic tube, and the other shows a monitor (possibly 2401 Penitent Tangent) locked in some sort of a holster on the ceiling. |
| | *Cold Storage is a remake of the [[Halo: Combat Evolved]] map [[Chill Out]], which was said on Bungie.net.<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=14347</ref> |
| | *It appears that one of the cryogenic tubes has burst, leaving behind Flood Biomass where the base used to be. |
| | *There will more about Cold Storage sometime this week.<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=14347</ref> |
| | *This map, [[Purple Reign]], and [[Moonbase Alpha]] might not be released together in the next map pack. |
| | *The map's weapon placements are the same (or close to) Chill Out's, one adjustment being the pair of grenades removed from the southwestern half and the northeastern half in the curved hallways. Originally four grenades spawned there. |
| | *A monitor can be seen in one of the screenshots released by Bungie. It is possible that it could be 2401 Pentinent Tengent. |
| | *Many people suggest that it is the back half of the dawn. However, the monitor on the ceiling might hint it is a facility on Halo 04 2 or the Ark. |
