Longest

2-8 players

Longest is a multiplayer level in Halo: Combat Evolved. It consists of two long hallways with a base at either end. It's great for Grenade Sniping. There have been observations that the style of room is used in the level 343 Guilty Spark, and that it commonly bears the same weapons and strategical placing.

The map has several ramps (and on top of one of them an active camouflage is found). A good strategy is to keep your distance when it's crowded and pull out an assault rifle. Fire small one second bursts to make headshots easier.

Longest was also one of the best levels to do King of the Hill games on, as people who were able to get 16 people and 4 Xboxes together discovered.

Also, on Halo PC, the most popular match type for this map was CTF with rockets only. Usually, only 1 really good player could capture the flag and return it. The rocket variation causes huge amounts of chaos.


 * Longest was remade as Elongation for Halo 2.
