    Previously released for Halo 2 on the original XBox, Desolation is a remake of Derelict from Halo CE.

    Once a scientific outpost, this Derelict Forerunner facility waits patiently to be reactivated.

    ERROR LOG:
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I had to replace the two gravity lifts with teleporters, not the worst idea as this mimics the original
    map Derelict.

    The holo-displays could look better but they where not easy to reconstruct.

    I decided to use Ascension's sky.

    I removed the hanging vines as they were causing odd shadows that I could not get rid of.

    A version of Desolation featuring some CE weapons.




    The Black CE Pistol provides 13 points of damage per shot (compared to the originals 25 damage points). Mind, it is still headshot capable and cannot be dual wielded. The Pistol still has great range (and zoom) while the AR will usually win against the Pistol in a close quarters battle. To me, that is a great balance.

    All SMGs have been replaced with ARs and I left many of the original weapons on the map, so if you do not care for an AR, you can still pick up a Battle Rifle. What this means is that the game will play out differently then the first release because not everyone will be relying solely a BR or SMG.
