Subject: Forge Update - you like?

yes but do you know how much that would be and possibly how laggy a map would get with all that stuff but it would be a fun update to have

EDIT: Now that bungie has announced "keep it clean" I think the question of this poll should be changed to:

"SHOULD THESE IDEAS BE INCLUDED IN THE NEW GAME?"

A lot of people have contributed toward this thread, but many of the features discussed in the list are most likely impossible to create in an update. So as you have seen already I changed the question from "Would you be willing to pay for this update?" to "Should these ideas be included in the new game?". I would appreciate it if you could try to read most if not all of this list before voting. These are pure suggestions to Bungie, not complaints. Please take all this seriously!

The new features would include:

- Gaurdians (spawn them and size them like a koth hill or a respawn area)
- A "Delete All Items" button
- 90 degree snap button
- An Undo button (don't you hate when you delete something on accident?)
- Openable and closable doors/gates (like the ones on standoff, but closable)
- Destructable Walls (like a wall from foundry, but it would crack and eventually break when damaged like a barrier)
- Trees
- Computer AI have been REMOVED
- Dead characters such as marines, elites, brutes, etc.
- Wrecked Pelicans and Phantoms (maybe like 1 per map)
- The ability to change the time of day (an object very similar to a filter)
- A "spraypaint" tool that lets you put blood, scorch, or scratch marks on any surface
- Ladders
- Shade Turrets
- Jackal Sniper Towers
- AA Wraiths
- Troop Warthogs
- Choice of skin on vehicles (iced or normal)
- Choice of color for containers on maps like Avalanche, Blackout, Rats Nest...
- A second custom powerup (edit it seperatly from the main yellow one)
- Red and Blue banners for marking the red and blue sides of maps
- More signs than just A and B
- Non - detachable machine gun turrets + plasma cannons
- Sizable Filters
- Breakable glass windows (remember the ones on good old fashioned Zanzibar?)
- Floors/larger walls
- Roads for racing maps
- A "Position Lock" button which would allow you to make sure an object could not move
- "Forge Glue"
- A button making objects float (instead of glitching stuff to float)
- Snowmen on snow covered maps for laughs (not default placed, just forgable)
- Some sort of weather modifier (again, an object similar to a filter)

These are both my ideas, and ideas of the public. I've created posts in the past gathering these ideas, this post sums it all up.

Oh, and for those of you who have been asking, x Foman123 x replied to this post on page 28. Here is what he said:

For that update, I'd pay 3000 points.

I'd also like to see an outdoor, no-ceiling, large-map version of Foundry.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT ACTUALLY HAPPENING, THEY'RE JUST SUGGESTIONS TO BUNGIE. Also, it would be greatly appreciated if you did NOT flame this thread. I know for a fact that quite a few of you will want to say stuff like, "GRUNTS?! Are you kidding me?!" or, "This is all impossible to program," or, "I don't use forge but i'm posting here anyway." Please refrain from doing so. We want to see positive comments if you're going to comment at all.




Sandbox =Outside Foundry.

I'd drop some bank for a MOFOing update like that, sounds good. If oblivion can release shivering Isles(who's campain is bigger than halos) then why cant bungie update forge for a quick one million dollars or more?

  • 11.05.2008 2:46 PM PDT

Stosh hates toast!

they should put this update together with the new maps, soy you can pay 800 points for the new maps and this forge update

  • 11.05.2008 2:53 PM PDT

Mmmm Brains!: Join for some zombie fun!

I would love to see all of these ideas put into forge. The destructable wall was something I have been wanting for a long time. If we got that all of those big ship maps could be a little more competitive, and imagine having a base be made out of those. the campaign items would make astetic forging easier, I have had several times where i wanted to make a an area look like a fight had just happened but it turned out to look like a bunch of guns on the ground. Also the floating button, delete all button, and undo button would be a feature that should have been in the game already. Plus the guardians would make keeping people inside the map so much eaiser. I would definatly pay 800 microsoft points for this alone.

  • 11.05.2008 3:00 PM PDT

BYAHHHH!

a decent amount of these ideas are possible but some would be a little bit of a trick to pull off, if you could spawn bloc items in forge that would be great

  • 11.05.2008 3:02 PM PDT

Sure! Maps would have great possibilities.

bungie is making Sandbox, it should be just for forge

  • 11.05.2008 3:20 PM PDT

This Is a cool idea BUNGIE DO THIS STUFF ITS THE BEST THINGS TO MAKE AWSOME MAPS!!!!

  • 11.07.2008 9:55 AM PDT

I would pay for that. they should also put in more objects for u to add to maps and a higher budget.

I agree with quite a few of those suggestions and ideas. I like the idea of bigger walls and floors to put on forged maps, I love to forge. I even love the idea of those filter-like settings to change the daytime setting and weather. Weather we get this type of stuff or not is entirely up to the guys at Bungie. I'll settle for a larger forge map like Foundry except outside or something like that. Sandbox sure sounds like it could be another forge map with some of these thoughts in mind. Please don't take that last part as truth. Just speculation. Nothing else. It could be as far away from the truth as anything. Still, it would be cool if this were so. We need another 'larger' forge map. At least, those of us who love to forge.

Yes, totally worth every microsoft point.

  • 11.08.2008 9:32 AM PDT

Ya know what this game needs? A Warthog, with legs.

For all those things, if their was an unlimited budget and items were limited. I would pay more than 800 ms points.

Bungie should do this! V_V This pretty much fixes Forge to make it better.

i think that there should be a locking mechanism for objects that you are forging. I think you should be able to move them in 90 degree increments

  • 11.08.2008 10:00 AM PDT

It's a great idea, i would pay 1600 points maximum

i would like unlimited items but a budget but the budget would be 1000 not 700 and to make sure people dont use money glitch and fill map with stuff just do what they did with all the other maps set a limit on how many items can be on the map.
