Could this be the first competitive map?

Looks like it could work out, and we could do something about the cannons with forge. What do you think?

Hmmm, it actually looks slightly large, but it may not play out that big. Looks good though, I like the general design. Hopefully we can Forge out the man cannons
in the most recent bungie podcast i believe they claimed this map to be the ultimate "shotty snipers" map
MLG HERE WE COME!

Those cannons are in really bad spots, I hope we can block them off with forge, because it allows you to get to the other side instantly...then again if you're playing as a team, you'll just teamshoot him. Plus in the last pic, I see a piece of equipment, and in the second, there is a cloak.

Interesting, I don't know what to think, my initial impression is that its good.

Hmm.. my first thoughts where that this map would be akward for CTF, but then I realized that the mancannons would stop CTF matches from being a stalemate at the center.

i have pictures from the vidoc and it shows thaet the flags are placed nearly at the top of the bases and it seems like you can grab the flag and jump alll the way down from the top to the bridge....judging from where the man cannon is located, it wld have to be a battle to get the flag to the mancannon for awhile..doesnt seem like a tatic id use personally. look at first pic the base structure is like a ^, at the top of that ^ is the flag on a cliff where you can grab it and jump down.im guessing its a battle to go up to the top floor to finally get the flag.
hitzel pm me if u want the pics emailed. i dont know how to post em up on this site.
oh well forge ftw i hope we can edit where to place the flag!

Isn't this part of a level from the Halo:CE campaign?
I swear the downstairs area looks familiar.

They said that it's an expansion of the bridge from Assault on the Control Room Shinobi.
I think the maps looks great, personally, we'll just have to see how the man cannons affect things.

Ok I know this is a little off topic but this is driving me crazy, is it just me or is that red guy cut in half.

Yes. He is in fact cut in half...

Many people that see new maps and new things (a man cut in half) need to realize that we are all thinking in a Halo 2 sense. Newer, bigger, more amazing things are going to happen during the course of Halo 3. He is cut in half, and I love it! Can't wait for this game!
oh no don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with it, Its just kind of threw me off.
WAIT!
hes not cut in half he is falling forward.. his feet are in the air
lol, my bad haha, that was really blowing my mind for a little while

It's essentially a remake of Gephyrophobia..

In the latest Bungie update they added more detail about Forge:
"Forge will allow players to customize multiplayer maps, changing and resetting spawn points, weapon spawns, weapon timers, vehicle spawns and timers, vehicle spawn points, and add existing geometry to the map’s existing structure in the form of crates, boxes, fusion coils, lifts, teleporters and more. "
Hopefully this means we can take out the mancannons if they prove to be bad.
Other than that, Narrows looks awesome! I loved fighting on the bridges in Halo 1 campaign and I can't wait to try this map out. Narrows FTW!

I dunno
Looks kinda uncompetitive

If the mancannons can be taken out, then I could see this map being used as an MLG map. Multi flag and a neutral bomb could be two game types that COULD work on this map.

THIs will be one of Halo 3's best maps IMO. I've thought that since I saw it in one of te vidocs.

Go to the second page and they have a preview of Narrows. They said the pacing of action in 4v4 slayer was great and this is one of Bungie's best maps to date. After reading this, I fully believe after tweaking this ever so slightly with forge that this will be a good competitive map.

This is going to sound weird but.....I had a dream that I was playing this map. I mean i was playing it ALOT and it was super fun. Im also semi psychic so if my senses are right this will be the ONLY map MLG uses.

I've read a lot of stupidly retarded posts and this one is by far the worst ever.

This map is reminiscent to the bridges in Halo CE. I sure many of you know that.
There's a map like this on Halo PC. I'm not quite sure what it's called. But it was HUGE. Well, more like BIG, but it's the kind of map where you might want to take a warthog to get from point A to B.
I hope it's not as large as that. And I certainly hope this map will qualify for MLG matches. I'm not sure how it's looking though. It looks fun to play for casual moments. But for competition, I'll just have to say 'wait.'

Now that you say that, the fact that there are man cannons on this map, kind of leads me to believe it may be larger than MLG usually goes for.

That big map was geyrophobia, and it's much bigger than this map is. Look at the pictures and picture it to scale, it's not that big.
