Derelict

4-8 players

Derelict is a multiplayer map in Halo: Combat Evolved. It is set aboard a Neutral artifact, cataloged by the UNSC as Deep-Space Anomaly #0198. It is a very small level that is best suited for 10 or less players, as more can become extremely chaotic, unless that is the desired effect.


 * Derelict was remade as Desolation for the Xbox version of Halo 2.

Weapon Locations

 * Assault Rifle - In front of one of the passageways, and on the other side.
 * Flamethrower (PC/Mac only) - In the middle of one of the second level passageways.
 * Needler - On one of the passageways on the second floor.
 * Pistol - Near both teleporters.
 * Shotgun - In front of a passageway.
 * Sniper Rifle - After teleporting to the second floor, look right.

Power-up Locations

 * Active Camouflage - Tucked away in an alcove on the second floor.
 * Health Pack - In the exact center of the first floor, on a transparent platform.
 * Overshield - Directly above the Health Pack, on the second floor.

Tactics

 * Players must keep a watchful eye on their HUD and radar to prevent charging into a trap, getting attacked from behind, or flanked.
 * Players who prefer long-range combat such as sniping and using the Pistol will likely loathe this level, as it is better suited for short-range combat with such weapons as with the Assault Rifle and Shotgun. The map itself is open, exploiting potential campers. In fact, there aren't many camping spots around.

Trivia
Derelict has been used for the Halo Machinima, Lost world.
