No offence to bungie or Halo, but did anyone like The Library?

I liked it on legendary on Co-op mode, but that was all I liked it on.

I loved the Library and although I don't play it now, it's the level (in my view) that has the most story to analize.

All levels are good, but I.M.O. , nothing will ever overtake "The Truth and Reconciliation" or
"Assault on the Control Room."

Besides every level in Halo 2!

Its too repetitive but if it came back in Halo 2 (like say on a different Halo) then, well, that would be great.

I wonder what the Monitors of the other Halos are like? Maybe 292 Guilty Spark with a red light in the middle instead of Blue. Although blue and its varients thereof seem to be the dominant color of Forerunner technologies.

The only reason I didn't like it was becuase it was the most pointless level in the game. 343GS could have made it a lot simpler, if he can teleport you out of the Library why can't he teleport you to the Index?

I also enjoyed it on legendary co-op, just like all other levels of the game. Have any of you tried shooting the monitor? His humming and comments almost make you want to, he'll reply with something like "stop being human." Yea its old, I know, but me and a friend play it on co-op a lot.

As someone whose very first experience playing Halo was playing the Library on Heroic in Co-op with inverted controls ( for the record, I play defult), the Library still doesn't get old. I admit, that after about the 8th or so corner you take to await being ambushed by Flood can be repeatitive, but they also have new tricks up their sleaves to keep it interesting. Like throwing in rocket wielding floods or carrier forms that sneek up behind you.

If in Halo 2 they have to make another repeativitve "flooding" assult, I'm sure there will be a pway to keep you awake. Maybe after the 7th time you play the level through you might get a little bored. But just think, while The Library was an "annoying" level, it's full of details to think about and cauases you to be more resourceful later on and throughout the rest of the game.

I hated level 7 (The library) along with level 6 (343 GS) because of the flood and because they suck and are annoying as hell.Hopefully they wont have any levels similar to them in Halo 2.Hopefully

The library gets really repetative....

Follow GS to a door...
Wait for GS to open the door while being ambushed...
Find elevator...
Repeat.

It's fun for the first 5 times you get attacked, but then you just start wanting to have a change of scenery and enemies.

I assume that in Halo 2 the levels will be a lot less repetative, and since the AI will be better and interact with the environment it won't get boring fighting the same enemy over and over.

If you haven't been reading the updates, a LOT more depth is being put into the levels. I SEVERELY doubt there will be even a single repetitive or annoying level, I would guess they will all soon become classics. If by chance a level is "repetitive in design", it will encompass more strategy to get through the level and thus be more interesting to play most likely.

The Library was a fantastic level...it really brought out the suspense and sense of urgency in the game. It was the first time that the game really culminated in story and action, I thought. Anyway, no, there won't be any of those, in an interview, which I'm too lazy to look up right now, one of the Bungie Gods said that they......oh, it was in a recent issue of Game Informer I think.....said they really got reamed about the level design, so it's going to be much less repetitive.

It was OXM and Bungie said they got kicked in the teeth by the reviews of Halo's repetitive levels.
