Deadlock is a Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer map created in Forge that was released on November 18, 2015 as part of the Battle of Shadow and Light update. The map is a mostly faithful remake the Halo 3 multiplayer map Standoff[1] and is set in a UNSC research base near a rocky cliff face.
Layout
Deadlock's layout is highly faithful to its predecessor's, with much of the map's geometry being identical. The map features two dug-in bases at either end of an open, hilly field with large boulders for cover, and is best suited for high player counts and base-related game modes such as Capture the Flag and Strongholds. Combat centers around long sight-lines and light vehicles, with a rush for anti-vehicle power weapons along the middle of the map.
