Fifty3 keno

yea ide pay for that.. but ide also like to see a sentinal beam for the forge bot. when you are flying around with nothing the R trigger does nothing, and i would like to shoot things in forge mode. and maby even be able to rais and lower the ground. and some sort of rope tool.

89% for 11% against...

sums it up rearly

YES TO ALL!

also dont tell me they cant change the forge tables i DO NOT belive that for a second, if they can remove the shield doors from snow bound, and call it boundless, but its still snowbound on my map list, why can i not remove them in forge...? bungie i would pay you 1200msp for you to update the forge system like this, and im probably not even .05% of the people who voted yes to the idea, thats alot of money, THINK WITH YOUR WALLETS NOT YOU MINDS FOR ONCE YOUR A BUISNESS YOU CAN SUPPLY AND WE DEMAND!

*edit* read a few pages back, after posting, cos im not reading all 95 pages, hell no!

I would probably get but what happens if some one does not have the update does that mean we cannot play that map just like with map packs cause then that would ruin custom games.


you fail to remember the 89% / 11% how many people who play customs/forge alot wouldnt buy this, count that against the number of people you know who play halo3 with you and you realise, 'your' entire halo3 comunity will have this, now i admit that some people 'MLG HOES' and 'matchmaking ZOMG i wet my pants geeks' probably wont have this, but then again, they only like people like themselves and they probably make up the best part of that 11%

so rearly you worry about nothing mate, REJOICE :)

for all to be aware, i am REALISTIC in the fact that this probably WONT happen, but it SHOULD happen

glad to see this post is still alive. i voted yes, and again, yes, i would. id pay more than 800. forge is what seperates h3 from other heavyweight shooters, and if forge was updated, geeze. i cant even imagine.

Fat Man and the Creature
note: Their was no creature

Even with my doubts about exactly how effective it would be, I'd have to vote yes. There is some pretty sick items on the list.

Yes.

Man, i made an exact thread about new forge items... w/e... as long as these are made, since most of them i have though about too.

  • 01.27.2009 6:07 PM PDT

Dude just transform it into GMod.

  • 01.27.2009 6:09 PM PDT

Yes, and I must say, Kudos on a greatly thought out post.

  • 01.27.2009 9:04 PM PDT

Stuff Won...
Internetz: 9
Cookies: 7

Id pay 50 bucks for all that.

  • 01.27.2009 9:07 PM PDT

stickers: just attach a sticker to an object to make it float, merge, or lock

***UPDATE*** Achieved Brigadier General, and glad i dont have to tell people im going to Brigadier
***UPDATE*** Got Recon armor, and im loving it.

mm i would say yes for sure but you went a bit to far with some things. i like the 90 degree undo.
delete all etc. but some things like the float an object would be dumb. because in my opinion i like forge how it takes talent in perfectly placing things. showing your skill and how you can organize a map. choice of color is a meh.. and if a weather mod were optional i think it would overload a lot of things. it would take some work but im sure bungie has thought about the undo delete all and minor things like that.

me and my neighbor were always like -blam- i wish there was a delete all button xD

Click here to see the worst Halo player ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a few more things you should add to your list.
1) Place objects with X,Y,Z coordinates settings - This would allow you to place an object in the exact place you want it to be in.

2) Rotate objects with X, Y, Z axis settings

3) Be able to scale (stretch or shrink) unmovable objects with X, Y, Z settings. - This would save budget (no more 15 double box walls), and it would also save space (thinner walls)

4) An option to have a floor or take it off - easier to make maps where you can fall off

5) A rotation lock - This would go along with the "Position Lock". You could move the object, but you would not lose the rotation if it came into contact with something else.

6) Ability to turn collision detection off on objects in forge - This would allow you to interlock easier.

7) No item limits as long as you stay within the budget.

I also think your list needs to be organized a little, so I will organize it for you and you can use it if you want. I won't add mine incase you didn't like them. I also think some things need to be stated differently. I will comment in Bold for those things.


New Forge Features
- A "Delete All Items" button
- 90 degree snap button - My second idea could do this and much more
- An Undo button (don't you hate when you delete something on accident?)
- Choice of skin on vehicles (iced or normal)
- Choice of color for containers on maps like Avalanche, Blackout, Rats Nest...
- A "spraypaint" tool that lets you put blood, scorch, or scratch marks on any surface
- A "Position Lock" button which would allow you to make sure an object could not move
- "Forge Glue" - Is this supposed to go with the one above or below it? If not explain "Forge Glue"
- A button making objects float (instead of glitching stuff to float) - My first Idea would do this and much more

New Forge Objects
- Guardians (spawn them and size them like a koth hill or a respawn area) - Why don't you just call it a death barrier. You are just going to confuse people by naming it "Guardians"
- The ability to change the time of day (an object very similar to a filter)
- Some sort of weather modifier (again, an object similar to a filter)
- Sizable filter - ???
- A second custom powerup (edit it separately from the main yellow one)
- Openable and closable doors/gates (like the ones on standoff, but closable)
- Destructible Walls (like a wall from foundry, but it would crack and eventually break when damaged like a barrier)
- Ladders
- Trees
- Dead characters such as marines, elites, brutes, etc.
- Wrecked Pelicans and Phantoms (maybe like 1 per map)
- Red and Blue banners for marking the red and blue sides of maps
- More signs than just A and B
- Breakable glass windows (remember the ones on good old fashioned Zanzibar?)
- Roads for racing maps
- Non - detachable machine gun turrets + plasma cannons
- Shade Turrets - I have a feeling that a lot of people don't remember those are called Shade turrets, so you may want to explain.
- Jackal Sniper Towers
- AA Wraiths
- Troop Warthogs
- Snowmen on snow covered maps for laughs (not default placed, just forgable) I think this should be removed for more important things
- Floors/larger walls I would replace this with the scaling objects idea I posted and then move it to the new forge features section
- Computer AI have been REMOVED - If they have been removed why are they still on the list?

Sizable filters sound nice. and so does delete all.

It might not appeal to casual gamers/forgers though(lol) so I don't think they will do it.
