Subject: Bungie, DON'T LIMIT custom games options

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

The title speaks for itself, in Halo 3 Bungie made the unfortunate mistake in letting Forge limit various options in custom games, like weapon starts and vehicle options on specific maps. There is no valid reason why I cannot spawn with my Carbine.

There will be no valid excuse this time with Halo: Reach... We should have the option on placing every weapon, vehicle, and equipment on every single multiplayer map. We should also be able to start with every weapon or grenade type as well. The shortcomings with Halo 3 limited the amount of things we could do when it came down to weapons and vehicles, and I do hope that this issue is non existent in halo Reach.

Maybe we can actually build Human versus Covenant themed maps in Halo: Reach.

agreed agreed

I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: That's stupid and you're stupid.

Agreed, more options, the better.

In the days of old, there were legends of a land long lost to time. This land was known as Ranna'Mor. Ranna'Mor was said to contain in its borders 7 warriors. These warriors had once unleashed a veritable hell upon the ancient world, until they were locked away. My name is Toriad, and I am one of those warriors. Our return is approaching. Do not run away, do not cower in fear; take solace in your final days, for that is all we can do. -Legend of Ranna'Mor

I am personally not dissatisfied with H3's forge, but I don't use it often enough. From what you say, it sounds like it leaved a bit to be desired. I especially liked that idea of a human vs. covenant themed map.

Posting on bungie.net should require that the user has had to have read a chapter book all the way through.

Hey BS, long time no see!

But yeah I agree.

I would love to see heaps more custom options in the custom games lobby. Imagine some of the gametypes people would come up with. It would be great!

Wow let even more people create boring unoriginal gametypes. But I still agree. The reason most peoples gametypes are boring and unoriginal is because we need more customisation. But yeah I agree 100% it was stupid how you could set a gametype to allow you to start the with anygun in halo2 but you were only alowed to have a few guns as the starting weapon in halo 3. You couldn't even play Ghostbusters properly because you weren't allowed to spawn with the Sentinal Beam. WTF?

As that one topic said, the key to replability is: options,options,options.

And as always, SEND ME A PM. Please. Or really bad things will happen to you.

I dislike how some custom game options don't even work when the Forge map allows it. If there is no 4 team flag in Reach I will be seriously depressed.

Exactly. I don't even care if it's two disks... I just want every limit gone, or pushed as far as it can.

wow halo 3 is proboly one of the biggest and best sand box games EVER! with forge and theater modes...

and here you go on saying it is a limited game!? that is outrageous

  • 07.13.2009 7:42 AM PDT

nope.

I get where you are coming from and i agree with weapon starts and what-not, but some vehicals would ruin specific maps. Like what if someone would be allowed to put a scorpion on guardian? That would just be rediculas. There needs to be some limits, otherwise there would be rediculas maps and stuipid games.

I can understand specific limitations like that, but not allowing a Gauss Warthog in Avalanche doesn't make any sense.

  • 07.13.2009 7:56 AM PDT

ya i agree 100% its customs and we should get all the options for the best games possible.
pretty basic idea but customization is very important for custom games.

AGREED.

Bring back neutral flag. And multiflag with more than 2 teams, too, please. And race. And kill in order.

Also, there should be no limit on custom content. We should be able to save until our harddrive is full.

Great idea.
I think this was the biggest problem with H3.

You can't spawn with a Carbine. You can't put plasma rifles onto Valhalla in Forge.

  • 07.13.2009 9:22 AM PDT

Bringing you lame jokes, social awkwardness and the occasional good idea since 2008

I was annoyed when I saw I couldn't spawn with a plasma rifle or carbine, even a fuel rod. And I have yet to see a valid reason why I can't do it.
