'''''Chill Out''''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. Being one of the smallest multiplayer maps in the game, Chill Out is well suited for small, preferably team-based games between two and eight players.
'''''Chill Out''''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. It's considered the best map for 2v2 and 1v1.
 
It was remade as [[Cold Storage]] for [[Halo 3]].


== Summary ==
== Summary ==
'''''Chill Out''''' is a [[multiplayer]] map in ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]''. It's considered the best map for 2v2 and 1v1. Based on a floor of steaming nitrogen and [[Covenant]]-made rooms, it is an extremely varied map and not symmetrical, providing a very good, multiplayer experience. The color scheme (pink/purple) is similar to [[Midship]].
Chill Out is a small map, consisting of an asymmetrical set of rooms inside a Covenant ship or structure. The floor of the area is covered with a layer of mist, and much of the architecture is damaged and lays in pieces.  
 
This map is both for [[Xbox]] and [[PC]]/[[Mac]]. The level does not have any bases, as there are rooms. It is a very closed in map, making great combat with minimal people. With the unique bridge and varied symmetry, ''Chill Out'' is a unique [[CTF]] map, as one team usually does more defense than the other.
 
==Combat==
===Regular Weapon Locations===
*[[MA5B ICWS Assault Rifle|Assault Rifle]] - lower pink room
*[[Needler]] - on teleporter exit bridge
*[[M6D|Pistol]] - in lower Rocket Launcher room
*[[Plasma Rifle]] - top level in Rocket Launcher room and in lower fog room
*[[M19 SSM|Rocket Launcher]] - loft in main interior room
*[[Shotgun]] - in Overshield room
*[[Sniper_Rifle_System_99C-S2_AM|Sniper Rifle]] - in Active Camouflage room
 
===Strategic Points===
*''The Bridge'' (Recognized by a split into two sections, leading out from each base)
*''Ladders'' (Leading out from doorways providing overviews of courtyard areas)
*The ''Window'' (See upper right side of the above picture) (The large, elevated open 'window' that overlooks both large connected rooms. With some skill, you can jump onto this from the ledge that spawns the [[Rocket Launcher]].  This 'window' is very thin and you can easily fall off.  You will also be very visible with no cover if someone knows what you are doing. If they do not, however, you have free range to shoot any unsuspecting players on the ground, anyone on the bridge, and even fire on people coming out of the elevated hallway from the [[teleporter]].


===Recommended Gametypes===
The map is available both for [[Xbox]] and [[Personal computer|PC]]/Mac. The area does not have any bases, but with its broken bridge and asymmetrical design, ''Chill Out'' makes a unique [[Capture the Flag|CTF]] map, as one team usually has a larger area to defend than the other.
*Gametypes should usually be Free for All due to the non-symmetrical nature of the map.
*'''[[Rockets]]''' - This makes up a very explosive match, you will rarely survive to get more than 3 kills.
*'''[[Oddball]]''' - This gametype is fun, because the ball-carrier has a nav-point on them, making them a walking target.
*'''[[King of the Hill]]''' - It is hard to control the hill for a long time, resulting in a very competitive match.


===Strategies===
== Tactics ==
Due to the straight forward nature of the map, the [[Shotgun]], [[Plasma Rifle]] and [[Needler]] are ideal weapons. In addition, as there are several tall structure, one of which contains the rocket launcher. This is ideal for slowing down pursuers and/or inflicting heavy casualties on groups of enemies. In addition, attaining this weapon prevents the other team from getting it, as the rocket launcher only spawns there. However, do it quickly, as there will be '''heavy''' competition.
* Due to the close-quarters nature of the map, the [[M90 shotgun|shotgun]], [[Okarda'phaa-pattern plasma rifle|plasma rifle]], and [[Type-33 needler|needler]] are ideal weapon choices, but the [[SRS99C-S2 AM sniper rifle|sniper rifle]], [[M41 SPNKR|rocket launcher]], and [[M6D magnum|pistol]] are, as usual, the most effective methods of killing opponents at anything farther than point-blank range.
* There are several tall structures in the main room, one of which contains the rocket launcher.


==Trivia==  
== Trivia ==
*This map could have been an attacked [[Covenant]] structure, evident by the destroyed paths and walls and all the mist on the floor; it could have been a quick and vicious Flood attack.
* There is a window near the sniper rifle and teleporter exit that has a secret room on the other side. The only way to get into the room is by using the Teleporter glitch to get to the top of the level and falling in.
*This map could also be a Covenant Facility under construction, or a pre-existing Covenant Research Facility. This is because there are silver pillars that are hung off the ground by what looks to be purple machines. There is also Covenant circuitry, found throughout the map.
* The name "Chill Out" could be a reference to the fact that the floor seems to be covered in fog, indicating that the area is extremely cold. The fog and low temperatures may result from a [[Wikipedia:Nitrogen|nitrogen]] or supercooled [[methane]] leakage.
*There is a window near the sniper rifle and teleporter exit that has a secret room on the other side. The only way to get into the room is by using a teleporter glitch to get to the top of the level and falling in.
* This map was remade as the free DLC map, [[Cold Storage]], for ''[[Halo 3]]''.
*The name "Chill Out" could be a reference to the smoke on the level's floor, as it could be a reference to burnt cannabis and getting "stoned", hence the name.
* Chill Out was later remade in ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'', as a free DLC map usually found in the [[Super Fiesta]] playlist. It is one of several ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' multiplayer map remakes in ''Halo 5: Guardians''.
*As a special announcement for [MLG] San Diego, plans were unveiled by Lukems and Shishka to remake Chill Out for ''[[Halo 3]]''. The remake is called [[Cold Storage]].
** One of the changes from the original includes a hologram of the [[Prophet of Truth]].
