'''Infinity''' is a [[multiplayer]] | '''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]]. | ||

Infinity consists of two large [[bases]] containing a large signal [[ | 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. | 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.

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. | 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.

One of the two paths to red base contain a pair of short tunnels.
