Luke, the Brute Pimp won't even make it in as a very hilarious easter egg?

The map is a piece of crap on further inspecting. If it doesn't have a under ground section its crap for sure, by the looks it could or couldn't be possible, I can't tell. Not that I'm going to buy them, I'll wait till they are free this time and if they never are, hey, I don't care anyways :). Starcraft 2 will be better then all those new crappy maps and Halo Wars.


negative nancy. how do you know? why dont you go to starcraft forum and make verbal love to them instead of disagreeing with a bunch of people who obviously like the game, for what? just to get your kicks? what on earth would underground areas have to do with how well a map is. isolation has underground and alot of people don't like it. sandtrap does and it is well esteemed.

A Halo 2 Glitch Master, "retired" since i couldn't find anything good in Halo 3, hoping for a come back. I'm a huge Marathon fan too. If you want to verse me, please message me through my Bungie.net profile.
My weapon of choice is the warthog (Driving); I'm one of the best drivers out there, so if i get my hand on a vehicle, you're going to wish i hadn't XD

April 20th I became one of the final 30 people to play Halo 2 online. Unfortunately I was kicked by Microsoft that day.

I don't know why, but sandbox, if I notice is correctly (so far, that is,), looks really disapointing. I noticed that there are those barriers that the guardians kill you with mines very close to the center. Is more? Hmm...oh well...we...or whomever has Halo War Limited Edition (Like me) will find out =D

"...about what this digitally descending timer ultimately denotes."

That sounded pretty good. +3 points.

coming from a forger sandbox doesnt look all that great because it will be so hard to make a wall around that without using all your budget unless theres invisible barriers? anyways its pretty good but wheres the shadows? (time changing mabey)

in the end good update

Wow.

Sandbox is like the dull, small version of Sandtrap. Way to go Bungie. Hopefully Orbital will make up for what looks to be garbage.

Damn, I was so close this time too. Good work boys, can't wait to see what you've got in store for us.

  • 01.30.2009 6:28 PM PDT

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

wow such great writing is it me or does it get better with each update? hmm I bet Sandbox is going to be more customisable than Foundry

Sandbox looks like something straight out of Halo: CE. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Something seems strange about it, though. Like it's too small. . .

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

Have the updates always been so fluffy?

I have to admit, Sandbox looks very exciting and promising.

So when do we get the news on the 7th Mythic Map?

Re: Elites
It's still very sad (no Elites).
Brutes just aren't as smooth as the Elites (personalities and swagger).

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Is it truly dawn that we seek?

Sweet Update

  • 01.30.2009 7:24 PM PDT

Everything is possible, and nothing is what it seems

sandbox looks smaller than i expected kind of a disappointment but the disappointment lies mostly in bungies fail in the mythic map pack. too bad to get them when they come out you have to pay $80 for an overpriced game when all you want to play is halo 3, not halo wars and along with the game all you get for that extra cash would be those maps and probably some stickers like most LE packs. except for fable 2, i dont think any special edition is worth buying

I thought sandbox would be similar to sandtrap
but the background is the same except for the sunset
so its like foundry in sandtrap at sunset?

and it says
“Halo 3” players will be able to build their own unique game experiences using the Forge map editor.

what does that mean?
perhaps button activated doors?
or buttons to control?
those are already made at h3artificer.com using forge complicatedly
but this would make it so much easier :)

Go Purdue! Boiler up!

Not going to lie... that picture looks like a CS map I made back in high school. That's it, Bungie?

I've bought everything you've ever sold.... now are you just making fun of me?
