The map is a mostly faithful remake the Halo 3 multiplayer map Standoff made in collaboration between "Nokyard" and 343 Industries itself. It was released on Novemas part of the Battle of Shadow and Light update. The switches that control each base's bunker window and secret entrance are togglable. In terms of map geometry, the two most notable differences are the removal of the large silo doors behind each base and the addition of small satellite dish platforms at diagonal ends of the map's center which provide a high vantage point. The Mongoose available to each team has also been upgraded to a Gungoose. The SMG spawn point will have either the Needler or Sentinel Beam. Additionally, at the top-back portion of each base is a Hydra launcher. The Tactical Rifle spawn point will have either the BR75 Battle Rifle or the VK78 Commando. However, the missile silos at the left and right sides of the map now add two more power weapons to the mix: the Rocket Launcher and Railgun. ![]() Like before, the Spartan Laser is the central power weapon, with a Warthog, Ghost, Active camouflage powerup, and turret emplacement available at each base. The map differs from Standoff mostly in weapon placement. Combat centers around long sight-lines and light vehicles, with a rush for anti-vehicle power weapons along the middle of the map. The map features two dug-in bases at either end of an open, hilly field with large boulders for cover, and is best suited for high player counts and base-related game modes such as Capture the Flag and Strongholds. Deadlock's layout is highly faithful to its predecessor's, with much of the map's geometry being identical. ![]()
