This map was remade as [[Tombstone]] for [[Halo 2]]. | |||
== Summary == | |||
It is best for large groups of players, as it can become too hard for 1v1 or 2v2. It is recommended to have the settings on this map at least 5v5, due to the various hiding and sniping spots. The recommended playing settings for weapons is snipers. Hang 'Em High is called "The king of ''Halo'' Maps..." by [[Bungie]] themselves. | It is best for large groups of players, as it can become too hard for 1v1 or 2v2.

[[Flamethrower]] – To attain the Flamethrower, you must be playing as red team (the base which is lower). Then, simply turn right, past the fragmentation grenades, and the Flamethrower will lie in front of you. | [[Flamethrower]] – To attain the Flamethrower, you must be playing as red team (the base which is lower).

[[Sniper Rifle]] – The Sniper Rifle is located on top of the tall pillar in the middle of the map. To attain it, simply go onto the tall ramp and jump towards the left when you’re directly in front of it; even though it dictates to the contrary, I guarantee you’ll make it. | [[Sniper Rifle]] – The Sniper Rifle is located on top of the tall pillar in the middle of the map.

*The map is best suited for 3v3 matches and is a blast for Sticky Wars. Sticky Wars is an improvised game type with infinite plasma grenades. | *The map is best suited for 3v3 matches and is a blast for Sticky Wars. Sticky Wars is an improvised game type with infinite plasma grenades. | ||
*The best strategy is to camp on the side with the [[Shotgun]]s and [[Flamethrower]]s or just use your [[M6C|Pistol]]s and [[Grenade]]s to your advantage. | *The best strategy is to camp on the side with the [[Shotgun]]s and [[Flamethrower]]s or just use your [[M6C|Pistol]]s and [[Grenade]]s to your advantage. | ||

*In team oddball games have one player running 1st by the active camo (pick that up) then straight left and up the ramp then left down the little ramp out by where the needler spawns by default along that ledge then drop down to the floor run either left or straight to the active camo (pick that up) and along the same path. The rest of the team should be distracting the other team. | *In team oddball games have one player running 1st by the active camo (pick that up) then straight left and up the ramp then left down the little ramp out by where the needler spawns by default along that ledge then drop down to the floor run either left or straight to the active camo (pick that up) and along the same path.

*Using the elevated walkways are very good when bringing back flag to base (in CTF), because the grenades bounce off and it's hard to aim at platforms with rocket launcher. | *Using the elevated walkways are very good when bringing back flag to base (in CTF), because the grenades bounce off and it's hard to aim at platforms with rocket launcher. | ||

*This level could be a remake of a Campaign level in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', in the same way that Halo 3's Crow's Nest was made into Rat's Nest. Hang 'Em High has some similarities to the structures of the [[The Library (Level)|first]] Flood levels such as the [[Flood]] [[Flood Containment Facility|containment facility]] in [[343 Guilty Spark (Level)|343 Guilty Spark]] or [[The Library (Level)|The Library]]. | *This level could be a remake of a Campaign level in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', in the same way that Halo 3's Crow's Nest was made into Rat's Nest.
