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 race gametype.

Infinity consists of two large bases, containing a large signal beam emitter (going into the beam will kill you), as seen in the single player 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 also a small maze-like structure on one of the routes to blue base.

Glitches

  • There is a glitch that you can do at the bases:

You just need a Ghost. 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). 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.
