I don't know. Bungie seemed like they were unsure awhile back because they didn't know if putting the E3 demo map in Halo 2 would be a good idea. I personally think they should add it. The more levels the better.

Wait a minute backtrack. Did you mean the E3 demo level or the actual city itself as a multiplayer?
I would say no to the first yes to the other.

Yeah I thought so, there will definatly be a city stage, but I doubt it will be called New Mombasa (But there is a Campaign level staged there).

how do you know that there will be a campaign map there? omx?

If it would be a map then i bet it would be an assault map where one team has to attack the megopolis.

maybe a smaller version of New Mombasa. as bungie mentioned, the levels are suppoed to be about 5x the size of AotCR. having a MP map that big would require about 50 people to make it worth playing. so if NM is a MP map, make it a neutered version.

but, if they don't, we still ahve the next best thing. about 20 clicks north (i think) of New Mombasa is Zanzibar. the marines wh survied the convenat assault call this place "hell on earth"...

I hope there is a multiplayer map set in New Mombassa or at least a human city anyway. The urban building to building and sniping combat would be ace. Not to mention having vehicles roaring down the roads as attacks fly at them from nearby buildings. I also have this image in my mind of clearing flights of stairs in tall buildings. I'm sure there will be a human city as a multiplayer map because levels in the campaign appear to take place in them. e.g E3 2003 presentation. The multiplayer maps are sure to have a variety of locations from the game.

gearbox are making a new mombasa map for halo ce so really they have to make one, even if its not the same lace which i would expect.

I'm not sure if New Mombasa is a new MP map, but I'm positive there will be city levels. I mean why wouldn't bungie do that?
And city maps are always fun because of all the hiding places. Sniping Revisited.

I would say no, simply because it is unlike Bungie to use a shrunken SP map in MP. The original Halo had completely different SP and MP maps. The only similar elements were textures. I believe Bungie is creative enough to continue in this vein for Halo 2 as well.

  • 05.25.2004 1:06 PM PDT

I'm alone, where is my microphone.

Wasn't there a rumor awhile back about sniping in buildings, maybe this is that level, or so I hope. No, that rumor was in the Bungie Weekly Updates, hmm no rumor than.

I think i missed the E3 2003 videio! because i only saw dark places while this looks like a jungle/forest kind of thing?

hmm go to gametrailers.com that place is excellent for videos. And its free
I expect there to be a city stage, simply because most multiplayer stages in Halo: CE were set on Halo, with Halo 2 being set on Earth Id imagine that a lot of places will be on Earth (i.e. "hell on earth" aka Zanzibar)

what they might do is have small maps like zanzibar for single system multiplayer
and save the large maps like new mombasa for xbox live and for massive system links
