| |
| The Halo Trial is the demo version for the popular ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', for both PC and Mac. It features the campaign level, the [[The Silent Cartographer (Level)|Silent Cartographer]], and the multiplayer level, [[Blood Gulch (Level)|Blood Gulch]] for online play.
| |
| | |
| ==Features==
| |
| ===Campaign===
| |
| Only the [[The Silent Cartographer (Level)|Silent Cartographer]] mission can be played in the Halo Trial. Similar to [[Halo: Combat Evolved|''Halo: Combat Evolved'']], the level features similar environment, weapons and enemies. However, players would not be able to save the level, as doing so will restart the level.
| |
| | |
| ===Multiplayer===
| |
| [[Blood Gulch (Level)|Blood Gulch]] is the only map featured in the game with the capability of hosting up to sixteen players per game. In contrast to [[Halo: Combat Evolved|''Halo: Combat Evolved'']], Halo Trial's version retains similar weapons and vehicles but features low graphics settings, as players are encouraged to buy the full version. There are only two gametypes: [[CTF Classic]] (First to 3 Flag Captures) and [[Slayer|Free-For-All Slayer]] (First to 25 Kills).

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *When the player closes the demo, an advertisement for the full ''[[Halo PC]]'' appears, which features [[Sergeant Johnson]] telling (almost ordering) the player to buy a copy of the full version. However, one can simply bypass the advertisement by pressing Alt + F4 or Ctrl + Alt + Delete and ending the program, or by using the -novideo command line parameter on a windows. On a Mac, the player can just press Escape or Enter. The video can also be removed by deleting the demo.bik file in the program files.
| |
| * The demo contains all of the weapons from the full version. Fuel Rod Canons & Flamethrowers for Multiplayer and Snipers are only in [[Multi-player|Multiplayer]]. It also contains half of the vehicles of single player, but has a Rocket Warthog and [[Banshee]] for Multiplayer matters.
| |
| *''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' Trial has maintained incredible popularity since its release in 2003.
| |
| *Players can join Blood Gulch maps with different gametypes hosted by players with the full version even though the demo allows the player to make a Slayer and Capture the Flag server only.
