Agreed.
It was my favorite map from Halo also, I loved how you could slide on the ice with th warthogs, might get fun in this new remake.
Though this one looks a lot more detailed. I hope they didn't go completely overboard with the remake.

I don't even like H3 anymore and might buy these.

It's like Sidewinder minus ladders, plus high walls.

Look good. Oh, and there is a ladder in Waterworks in Halo2.

Yeah, that fact merited a whole "Bungie lied to us" thread at their forums

I think that wasn't the only one either. Nevertheless, ladders were still rarely used after Halo 1, so there isn't much point in that discussion.

This just proves that even Bungie wants to pretend Waterworks never happened.

I always liked Waterworks. Poorly made, but had good sniping.

I liked latters /= although they didn't look realistic, it gave sidewinder fun gameplay.

I would like to see Ascension remade. I always enjoyed a good game of tower of power

But from the descriptions of the third map it seems extremely unlikely. Its almost an exact description of Lockout.

Agreed. Not to mention that Ascension was the best map for SWAT.

Since this is essentially the legendary map thread, there's also this speculation to add to what seems to be piles of lockout evidence:

Magazine cover.

Sure its not much, but it does as I said, add to the rumour.

That is absolutely the lift tower.

I'll be hoping for a remake of Lockout.

ScottyGEE · Post by **ScottyGEE** » Fri Mar 21, 2008 9:49 pm

This is where I say: There seems to be so much pointing towards lockout right now, is there anything at all that tells people it ISN'T lockout? And what I mean by isn't is that things have been described as unlockout-y, not "but it also fits chillout" going by GTAF as an example.

In the sidewinder overhead weapons picture, I don't see a sniper rifle. I know this is going to piss off soo many kids. but this makes me so excited. I am the biggest spartan laser whore there is. Sniper is the only thing that can stop me. I'm invincible now

ha.

ScottyGEE · Post by **ScottyGEE** » Fri Mar 21, 2008 10:22 pm

there are two sniper rifles btw

Also, having new viewpoint of the map, do you still dislike it Tural/Gtaf/Kirk/other-people-that-aren't-as-kool-as-the-prior

But yes; this map is to sidewinder as containment is to coagulation <_>

I can only hope I am missing the teleporters <_> It needs teleporters...

Man cannons == fail in front of teleporters <_>

But perhaps this will still be a good map? Perhaps....

He knew the map, the other guy got it confused.

O.o Oh my, Scotty Gee, Very nice find. I am now entirely convinced its lockout. Me and a good friend were both hoping on this being a map since before halo 3 came out. Im pumped and I know as soon as I show him that pic he will flip too.
