'''Longest''' is a [[Multiplayer]] level in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]].
'''''Longest''''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''.


== Summary ==
== Summary ==
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 (Level)|343 Guilty Spark]], and that it commonly bears the same weapons and strategical placing. The map was later remade as the map ''[[Elongation (Level)|Elongation]]'', for ''[[Halo 2]]''. The map itself is designed for close-quarters combat due to its layout. It, in fact, resembles that of the [[Halo 3]] map, [[Epitaph]].

===Weapon Layout===
==Strategies==
*[[M6D Pistol]] - First, exit the base. Then, head right at the first corridor, and located in a small trench, lies the pistol.

*[[Plasma Rifle]]  – first, head out of the base, going straight forward. At the end, to your right, there should be a ramp. After going up the ramp, there should lie the Plasma Rifle. However, it may also be an [[Assault Rifle]], depending on the base.
*[[Assault Rifle]] – See Plasma Rifle.
*[[Flamethrower]] – First, exit the base and turn right at the first corridor. Continue along the corridor, past the trench with the pistol. Eventually, around half way to enemy base, look left to get your prize. Then, for an additional reload, simply turn backward and jump through the narrow gap with another one.
*[[Plasma Grenades]] – In the base, behind the combat barrier, there are four plasma grenades.
*[[Frag Grenades]] – First, exit the base and continue towards the ramp. However, go to where the health pack is located. Turn right (in the opposite direction of health pack). In the trench, there will be four frags.
 
===Combat===
*The map has two ramps on each side of the map which leads up to a spot where you can jump to a catwalk that runs along the interior wall. The first platform you find will either have an [[Active Camouflage]] or an [[Overshield]], depending on which base is at your back. A good strategy is to keep your distance when it's crowded and pull out a [[M6D|Pistol]]. Fire single shots to make head shots easier, holding the trigger on the pistol decreases its accuracy, and the same goes for other weapon.

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

*''Longest'' has the gloomiest atmosphere of all the multiplayer maps in [[Halo:Combat Evolved]].
*If one team was in the holes and another team wasn't, they could have a "trench war" with the people in the holes with shotguns and the other team with the assualt rifle or pistol.
