**Lockout was designed in 3D and never had any 2D paper layout sketches (with the exception of some layout work done for ''Combat Evolved''), unlike other maps in ''Halo 2''. The map was designed by [[Chris Carney]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/MaxHoberman/status/1072497011046400000 Max Hoberman on Twitter]</ref> | **Lockout was designed in 3D and never had any 2D paper layout sketches (with the exception of some layout work done for ''Combat Evolved''), unlike other maps in ''Halo 2''.
