==Summary== | |||
'''Danger Canyon''' is a [[Halo PC]] and [[Halo Mac]] exclusive [[multiplayer]] level somewhat similar to the [[Halo (Level)|Halo]] and [[The Silent Cartographer (Level)|The Silent Cartographer]] levels in the single player [[Campaign]] of [[Halo: Combat Evolved]]. It features a long, narrow, winding canyon, with an alternate passageway leading to a second level in the center of the canyon. The passageway is large enough to drive a [[Warthog]] through, and players have been known to drive Warthogs to a nice platform overlooking the canyon below and open fire. | |||

This sniper can also pick off slower vehicles that may pass, like a scorpion tank or an unsuspecting warthog. Additional teammates can go through the tunnels, across the bridges, and through the teleporters to get to vehicles that may be waiting there. | ||

Similar to [[Infinity]], Danger Canyon was designed ''specifically'' so that coordinated team attacks were a necessity for success. | |||
==Cheating - Wall Hacking / Leaking== | |||
{{main|Wall Hacking}} | |||
First you will need to create a gametype with at least one [[Ghost (Vehicle)|Ghost]] or [[Warthog]], and friendly fire turned off. Start a new game on Danger Canyon and get in a either vehicle. Get a teammate to get in front of the wall closest to your enemy's base and ram them through the cliff wall. Sometimes, this may fail, leading to your teammate falling through the map. If it does work, you will be at the opposing team's base. | |||
== | ==Easter Egg - The Laugh== | ||
*[[ | *This egg is also in the map [[Timberland]]. It's fairly easy to do, to do it just stand outside and wait in your position and you will hear a child laugh or say "Mama". It can also be mistaken for the call of a strange bird if you are not paying attention. | ||
