Do you think the Zanzibar map, featured at the E3 this year, will be a level in Halo 2's singleplayer campaign? In the first of the newest pics of Halo 2, it shows the Master Chief and a couple of ODSTs on what looks alot like the Zanzibar map.

I wouldn't be surprised, bungie said that the multiplayer maps in Halo 2, directly correlate with the single player plot and setting.

Oh I think it's definitely in there. I think it's going to be you trying to help the marines defend the base and ending up falling back or winning a short-term victory.

Nope. It won't be. Sorry. They answered that at one point but I'd be hard pressed to remember which source. There has been so much information this week.

ya I also read that too but can't remember where Lots of info this week. Those brand new screens are mp shots from play (I'm talking about the one with the chief and 2 odsts). Also don't forget the desert screen and the iceburg one. No one knows for sure what towns u will be in in halo2. All I know is that u will be on a moonbase earth a new halo ring and take the fight to the covenant (read the faq about halo2 and u will see it).

i also heard that it "would tie into the story of single player halo" or something like that, but we would not visit it in single player......

i think they meant that all the multi maps are gonna take place in like the background of the campaign so like youll do earthcity then the rest of the spartans would be fighting on zanzibar(yes i know theres not 8 other spartans to go there) so it would just explain where the other members of your squad were at any given time...

What Bungie said at the press conference is that the MP maps will be very close to certain areas in Campaign mode. Zanzabar is near New mombasa. The MP maps will not have any other tie ins though im thinkin.

I think what he meant by the desert and iceburg screens were the first multiplayer screenshots.

Does anyone think that there could be like jungle type maps? That'd be awesome for strategy, picking your camo alone would do a big difference.
