Stick To Your Guns

No I wouldn't. I hardly ever use Forge anyway so it just wouldn't be worth paying any amount for an update I wouldn't use.

There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

Looks like we've just gone over 10,000 votes and even better, over 9,000 of them are in our favour! I worry as to how Bungie haven't said anything yet though.

Meh... Anyway, come on, 10,000 'Yes' votes!

Seriously Shishka, I say we give Stosh a break and blame YOU for a change.

I want to play on a Ghost Town at night and have it raining. That would be awesome!

I am the light in a dark world...
All that is dark and currupt shall fall before me...
May you all live long and die strong.

Lol for 800 MS points no way! Not with ODST coming out that would just be a firckin rip-off. Bring it out with ODST that would be fine but make people pay extra... Seriously.

Consider it something to add into the expansion by all means but dont make people pay extra.

I wouldn't pay 800ms but 400 easily. I have been saying that there needs to be a 90 degree snap grid since my first forge. I don't like the idea of AI or dead bodies all over the place. I think it should be included with odst collectors edition. I guess this really doesn't have anything to do with me though for 2 months because I got red ring of death yesterday. IT HAPPENED ON BUNGIE DAY!

They need the ability to change block colors also some pieces look used and have rounded weathered corners that make gaps in your maps, make non weathered versions of the blocks for tight forging. Also you should be able to merge multiple objects together and make it one piece/object also there should be a copy mode where you can copy the merged object you just made to place on other areas of the map. Also the Blue and Red marker balls cost 20 bucks wtf? They should be free or like 2 bucks.

Another thing is a lock feature you should be able to lock a object, my friend was forging yesterday and I was in his game and moved a object on accident and he got pissed off. If there was a way to lock the object in place so that cant happen.

  • 07.09.2009 3:53 PM PDT

That would be SOOOO epic if they did that. but the only downside is it would take months and months to make...Great ideas though

Play fair, Have fun!!!

][=][ //-\\ ][_ (()) ][][][

This sounds alot like some other editors for games, but thats on computer where you have a keyboard with over 30 keys, so don't forget they have to put all that on the controller while making it not too complex to use, like you would have to hold down X while puling the left triger at the same time as presing Y three times to move something and so on! Mabe if you could have all these features on the computer and make maps there and download them to the xbox later. Just a thought.
Also there is the size of it. I mean we dont want to have to be without Halo for like 20 hours! lol.

But otherwise I think it would be awesome!!!

  • 07.09.2009 6:08 PM PDT

What I could see that Bungie could do, is allow importing of objects (aka, you press X to edit forge options) and are given the opportunity to import scenery sets from other maps. Your vehicles would stay the same, as well as weapons, equipment, but this way, you could have double boxes on sandbox if you wanted.

Everything else on that I would like.

And the last thing I'd look for would be a new piece of equipment, the Auto Turret, found in Campaign, that way, you can guard key areas.

And perhaps the ability to create your own Firefight. Aka. You build your level, set the gametype to Firefight mode. Then set the amount of infantry, etc, that spawn each new round. That would be ridiculously cool. I would pay an extra 30 dollars for that.

  • 07.09.2009 6:20 PM PDT

Go play Far Cry 2. I'm not disagreeing with you, I hate Forge and everything you said would make it so much better. But Far Cry 2 has all that kinda stuff. You can make HUGE totally custom maps. It's really pretty cool. If your really into that kind of stuff, try that game out.

these ideas would make the forge a ton more fun. while i wouldnt pay 800 ms points for them, i would gladly use them if they were included with odst. i dont buy dlc as i have two kids i have to think about before my needs and when it comes down to it i'd rather pay 65 for a whole game vs 10 for a few new features because those features might keep me entertained for a few extra hours but a whole new game can keep me entertained for weeks.

Yes i believe this would go well for the Microsoft and Bungie companies. More people would buy the new Halo game and Microsoft would make a fair amount of money. Though this would take a lot of time on Bungie's part.

  • 07.10.2009 3:32 AM PDT

Check out my file share

They are already rollin' in dough, why would they put work into more dough? lol

  • 07.10.2009 3:36 AM PDT

-BH Toothpick

I would. Think of the new things would be able to make in Forge. The possabilities are amazing and endless. I hope Bungie is reading this Forum.

  • 07.10.2009 3:37 AM PDT

Hey Bob, what are those things jumping across the rooftops like majestic warriors dressed as Spartans with their heads on fire?

Oh, that's just the Bungie ninjas. Mess with them and they'll bring a hammer down on your head that's so big, they have to keep it on Jupiter 'cause it won't fit on Earth.

Well, I think it would be a good addition, but i think it should work something like this.

It has been confirmed that Halo 3: ODST is going to have a better forge system than Halo 3's. Hopefully they include things that you are talking about. Lets say, they include all or most of this. If you buy Halo 3: ODST and reach, say, a certain rank and have like a skull or something so that Bungie knows you aren't just borrowing it from a friend for an afternoon, a message pops up on your screen and you get a selection in the menu or something (in case you accedentally hit A rigt when the message comes up) with a code that you can redeem on the XBL Marketplace for an update to the forge with everything from ODST for Halo 3. Or, you can just buy the update for like 800 MS points. Thoughts?

  • 07.10.2009 5:01 AM PDT

Ok the only problem is that this is not possible bungie did not make the game where there is ai and all these models in the maps what you see in the map is what you get. On my 360 Dev kit. I can geomerge and all that but this is only possible with .map modding and having a checkless xex. So in order for the forge update to work bungie would have to put all maps for redownload and EVERYONE would have to buy the forge update understand. Quit making such useless topics. Even if it was possible bungie is almost done with the game and wouldn't have time. I hope you understand. oh and to clear things up ai mods only work in campaign.

  • 07.10.2009 5:09 AM PDT

You can never succeed if you never try.

The time of day idea sounds amazing, although it could make Free for alls a little hard because if it was night the people who wore gray would blend in very easily on some maps. Most of the ideas sound good.

Undo Tool? Copy/Paste?

...


I'd sell my soul for that stuff right there.

Ambience is cool, too. like fogs and stuff.

this sounds like farcry 2 but sorta better :P they should take a few things and ide make all my maps on halo not farcry

  • 07.10.2009 11:03 AM PDT

You guys are idiots plain and simple. Ask any bungie employee if its possible.

  • 07.10.2009 11:04 AM PDT

Smerious!

for that stuff I totally would

I received my Halo 3 Recon armor on 8-3-09 for completing Sierra 117 on Mythic Difficulty through the Summer Mythic Recon Challenge.

I know a Forge patch is not even possible, nor do I think some of these ideas are really practical, but the idea of it is a decent one. I like the idea of a "snap" button, and of an undo button. I would also like to see EVERY WEAPON as a possible placeable item for EVERY MAP. I'd love a "Covie vs Human" varient of Valhalla, but the choice of Covie weapons on that map isn't stellar.
