It was a pain if you died in that map, spawn at the beginning of the map which wasn't being drawn any more. >_<

I think ce still has alot of potential, when it comes to Single player maps, we could potentially make the game have a completely different campaign and our only limit would be figuring out the recorded animations, which I'm sure have some way of being broken or figured out...
The reason we don't have any real amazing single player maps is that most of the ones that were finished only had small teams of 2-3 people or so. I think its because its going to be hard to get a storyline down where the whole team will agree with it, everyone has so many ideas story wise, and stuff they'd like to see them selves that its hard for them to commit to someone else's single player ideas, thats just my opinion though.
Bridge CE I would say is the most successful SP bsp currently in the works, and if it is finished to how Rob envisions, it would be the best, and I also think it would spark some more projects like it...
Another reason for so few sp maps is they are a hard item to work on over the interwebz, you can't really talk to people in person or show them concepts in real time or explain stuff how you could if you were next to the person, then because there single player, there harder to test, plus harder to enjoy the finished product with your team when theres no such thing as online co-op or co-op on the pc...
I think Bridge will make it, Rob's been working on it for like a year now, and he doesn't sound like giving up at all to me lol, hes focused, (unlike me he keeps having to nag me to work on it with him.) ;)
campaign maps just take such a long time and the majority of the community doesn't know jack about AI and AI scripts. i had something in the works where you play as the Spartan III's in the spi armor on the random missions then went on, ending with the shield planet but i never really got enough motivation to do, or support with stuff other then modeling >_<
I worked on an sp level this past summer. After I made the fina boss, I just got bored of it and never polished the geometry or added objectives. Helluva lotta fun to play, though. I still got an old video of it, uploaded it to mythica.

I remember a singleplayer map what was pretty basic box including flood and "skyscrapers". The bad thing was that you had to kill all the little infection forms to continue the "story". Infection forms were sometimes going out of the playable art of the map so it was really hard to play it without using devmode... It all happened in the one level, box level -.- It featured recorded stuff what looked pretty cool, I think. Elites with swords, and flying banshee and everything...
I will tell you where to get the map or it's name once I'm home and can find it out.
I'm pretty sure you mean BioHalo.
I smell the stench of a n00b....
Gah, hate to say it, but IAWTP^
Whatever happened to XCE... D_:
