{{Title|Cut ''Halo Online'' levels}}
Due to the cancellation of ''[[Halo Online]]'', several multiplayer maps and a single-player training scenario were cut from the game. The map data is largely gathered from the files of the MS30 build of the game, wherein map names and descriptions can be found. Some map files have the prefix <code>s3d_</code>, indicating the map was built for the [[Saber3D]] engine employed by [[Saber Interactive]] and is thus built wholly new for the game. Other maps returning from prior ''Halo'' games do not have this prefix, indicating they were to be 1:1 ports.

Named <code>s3d_waterfall</code> in the MS30 build, little is known of this map. Several released pieces of concept art with the name "waterfall" in their filenames have been released and likely correspond to this map, shown below. Some text strings indicate this map may have been intended to have the final name of "Whiteout".
