.

It looks a lot like it, even the distance from the Space Elevator is the same.

In the various stage demos from E3, it looked like the city was fairly square-shaped, so I'd guess that only 1/4 to 1/3 of the city is shown here

The building after the bridge is Alpha Site, that's for certain. But as for Security Zone I'm not too sure.

how many giant cube buildings in the middle of a lake, with a bridge going to it do you think there are in new mambasa?

anyway... wow, i had no idea the alpha site was that close to the space tether, maybe we will go to the elevator sometime during the game.

I just realized that you can see the Alpha Site in this screenshot

Size doesn't matter ;)

You know that probally isn't Security Zone, yeah, it's the part of the campaign map it's based on but i seriously doubt the firefight map is a direct rip from campaign.

It is. Bungie said that the firefight maps are from campaign (at least the ones we've seen so far).

Yeah, based on parts of the campaign, much like many of Call of Duty: Modern Warefare's maps were (sorry, best example i could think of) but they were resized with things added/ taken away to improve gameplay. Usually campaign areas don't traslate well into multplayer experience.

Keep in mind that campaign areas are set up for interesting encounters with AI.

Anyway, the Security Zone Firefight map is the same place as the area after the brige in campaign. Notice how it's set up with many overlooking points, and choke point stairways. You can tell it was put there to defend the Alpha Site.
