Subject: In forge, can we modify shield doors in Reach?

I don't know about you guys, but I like shield doors. They make for great custom B.U.N.G.L.E. games.

One problem though, you have three shapes and sizes, normal, large, and tube. I think the idea of having a shield door tube is amazing, because you could get a mongoose inside of it and bounce down in an epic racetrack fashion. However, the tube itself is a bit too small to fit a mongoose inside of. Or what if I wanted to take that tube and make it wider but shorter to put in the center of an arena I'm making? I can't do that either in Halo 3, I'm restricted to putting it over door ways or making large walls of them, which eats up the limit quickly.

I think that shield doors should be a bit like VIP goals in Reach, by pressing X, you can modify the shape, radius, and effects on them.

I think that there should also be options to make shield doors passable by vehicles only, infantry and vehicles, or only by certain teams.

I had a lot of this in the "What the B.U.N.G.L.E. Community wants in Reach" thread, but its serious enough to warrant a different thread for discussion.

What do you guys think?

that is a great idea and you could make it into a box or a sphere like the territory markers/king of the hill marker/vip
or you could just make it like a perminant buble sheild

Read any interview with Bungie about Forge. You can probably find some if you search Sandbox under the news. In every single one, there is a unanimous message from Bungie "We love what creative things you guys are doing with forge and we await each coming day to see what you people end up doing."

Do you seriously think they would cut out something so successful and awesome out of their next game if they had the choice? Nay my friend, it will be back, and better than ever.
