Halo: Lone Wolf/Atmosphere

Atmosphere is a medium-sized symmetrical multiplayer map that comes in Halo: Lone Wolf.

Summary
Atmosphere is an octagonal-shaped map, with both indoor and open areas. The map takes place inside of a large Covenant vessel's energy projector's plasma reactor. Although enclosed, the half of the octagonal ring circling the massive firing mechanism is exposed to the atmosphere's low-gravity, allowing for interesting gameplay. Every other walkway in the octagon is indoor with regular gravity, and separated from the outer platforms with energy shields on both sides. Every ninety-seconds, the large energy projector charges and fires for thirty-seconds. When the firing sequence is initiating, all players must quickly make their way into the protected indoor regions, or else they will quickly fall victim to purple ionized gasses, instantly killing the player. Jumping into the blast will have the same effect.

Peering into the abyss in the center reveals the colony of Reach, undergoing an intense glassing. A player may use the jetpack to soar across the "Plasma Barrel" pit in the center, and reach another platform.
