*'''Low Base''' - Low Base is one of the two Covenant bases on the map. This base, which is located on the eastern side of the map, appears to be fully functional, though it has apparently been abandoned. It is often referred to by players as "BR Spawn" because of the two [[battle rifles]] that spawn on its outer rear walls. Inside the base, there is a [[Spartan Laser]], two [[Paegaas Workshop Spiker]]s, and a [[Z-4190 bubble shield|bubble shield]]. Outside the base, a [[carbine]], a Spiker, and a [[Mauler]] spawn to the south; an [[Active camouflage|active camo]] spawns towards the north. On top of the base, there is a [[needler]] and a pair of [[Anskum-pattern plasma grenade|plasma grenade]]s. | *'''Low Base''' - Low Base is one of the two Covenant bases on the map.

*'''High Base''' - Directly adjacent to Low Base, High Base offers a different set of weapons. High Base's lights flicker and buzz, implying that it has become damaged. The large sphere in the center of the base appears broken, and icicles hang from the base's exterior, implying that its heating system has stopped working. Whether this damage is the result of the base's abandonment or something else is unknown. | *'''High Base''' - Directly adjacent to Low Base, High Base offers a different set of weapons.

In the ''Halo 3'' Beta, the engine incorporated real time reflections into many aspects of the game.
