| | '''Infinity''' is a level unique to [[Halo PC]]/Mac's [[multiplayer]]. It is the longest multiplayer map, being a long canyon shaped in an ∞ (Oroborus/"Infinity") symbol, tying in with its name. It is meant for 10 people or more. It's one of the best maps for the [[Games|race gametype]]. |
| '''Infinity''' is a [[multiplayer]] map originally exclusive to ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)|''Halo: Combat Evolved'' for PC]]'' and ''Halo Mac''. It is included in [[Halo: The Master Chief Collection|''The Master Chief Collection'']]. It is the longest multiplayer map. It is a long canyon in the shape of an ∞ the symbol for infinity, hence the name ''infinity''. It is one of the best maps for the [[race]] [[Gametypes|gametype]]. | |
| | |
| ==Overview==
| |
| ===Layout===
| |
| Infinity consists of two large [[bases]] containing a large signal [[Beacon tower]] similar to the ones seen in the single-player level [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|Halo]]. Going into the beam [[The Guardians|will kill you]], but only if the beam hits you while you fly over it in a [[Oghal-pattern Banshee|Banshee]] or if you crouch while standing over the emitter. Simply standing in it will not kill you. One emits a red beam, the other blue. There are two Banshees at the top of each base, as well as [[Mamua'uda-pattern Shade|Shades]] a bit further down. A smaller, secondary building lies below, containing a health pack, a shotgun, and an assault rifle. On top of it is a [[Unidentified fuel rod gun|fuel rod gun]], unless the gametype is [[Capture the Flag|CTF]], in which case the fuel rod gun is located in the middle of the cross-section plateaus near the bridges. In that case, the flag is on top.
| |
| | |
| In the center of the map, there are four long suspended bridges, similar to the ones seen in the beginning of the [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|Halo]] campaign map. The top two bridges hold a [[M41 SPNKR|Rocket Launcher]] each. At the ends of either of the lower bridges are [[teleporter]]s and in the middle are [[health pack]]s. There are also ladders leading to the top bridges. There are small ridges in between each upper bridge that each contain a Shade. There is also a small maze-like structure on one of the routes to blue base. Commonly called "the pipes" by players, a [[M7057 flamethrower|flamethrower]], a health pack, a [[M90 shotgun|shotgun]], and sometimes a [[Karo'etba-pattern Ghost|Ghost]] can be found here.
| |
| | |
| Next to the pipes is a ledge with a [[SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]] and health pack. A smaller ledge with a Shade is on the other side. The other route to blue base contains a large hill. It is difficult to get on top, but is possible, usually using a Ghost. This hill lies in the middle of the path. Right in front of it is a shotgun. On one side there is a deep depression. Next to that is a ledge with a Shade, a flamethrower, a sniper rifle, and a health pack. On the other side of the big rock is a ledge with a pair of [[M9 fragmentation grenade|frag grenades]]. Between this area and blue base is a narrow path.
| |
| | |
| One of the two paths to red base contain a pair of short tunnels. This area includes an [[MA5B assault rifle|assault rifle]], a [[Type-25 plasma pistol|plasma pistol]], a Shade, and two [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|plasma grenades]].
| |
| | |
| The other path to red base consists of a raised road and a lower non-paved path. There is a ledge with a health pack, a sniper rifle, and a Shade.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| ===Miscellaneous===
| |
| *If you stand in the bases and look up when they fire their beacons, it looks like the beacon goes to the center of the ring. You also can't see the beacon from the other base. However, if you go to a certain spot near the intersection of the canyon, you can see both beacons.
| |
| *The structures look similar to the beacon towers in [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|Halo]] and the bases in the [[Halo 3]] map Valhalla.
| |
| *The map from above is two connected Marathon logos laying sideways. With the trail being the outer circle, the bases being the "gap" of the outer circle, and the mountains being the inner circle. This was likely done to reference the third game in the series, which was named "Infinity".

| | Infinity consists of two large bases, containing a large signal beam emitter (going into the beam [[Guardians|will kill you]]), as seen in the single player level [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|Halo]]. One emits a red beam, the other blue. It houses two [[Banshees]] at the top of each base, as well as [[Shades]] a bit further down. A smaller, secondary building lies below, containing a health pack. On top of it is a [[Fuel Rod Gun]]. In the center of the map, there are four long suspended bridges, similar to the ones seen in the beginning of the "Halo" campaign map. The top two bridges hold [[Rocket Launchers]]. At the ends of either of the lower bridges are teleporters and in the middle are health packs. There are also ladders leading to the top bridges. There are small ridges in between each upper bridge that each contains a shade. |
| *There is a glitch to get out and pass the invisible wall using a Banshee while hovering and backing into the wall, much like getting to the sniper's rock in the multiplayer level [[Blood Gulch]].
| | There is also a small maze-like structure on one of the routes to blue base. |

| | *There is a glitch that you can do at the bases: |
| <gallery>
| | You just need a [[Ghost (Vehicle)|Ghost]]. |
| File:Infinity-RedBase.jpg|The Red base.
| | Get the Ghost up to the top of the base (which ever one you're at) and then get it in to that little spot between the base and small walk way that leads up to the Banshee(s), then when its in there (it has to be in a certain way but it's VERY hard to explain) just get under it's "wing" then try to flip it over, but the way it's in it will just come back down on top of you then you will be launched into the base but you'll need to move yourself to get into the area that the laser fires from, if you don't you'll just die (and you might not get into there because you'll either have the Ghost the wrong way or by just something weird). |
| File:Infinity-Center.jpg|A ground view in the middle of the map.
| | There is another way to get into the area where the laser fires. First, you put the ghost on the first level of the base. Then park your ghost backwards at the area the laser fires. Remember to leave room for yourself. Throw a [[Plasma Grenade]] in front of it and quickly go to the back. Once the grenade blows up the Ghost, it will push you into the wall and into the chamber. Unfortunately, the only way to get out is to kill yourself. |
