In halo 3,I saw security cams on the pit and I thought "It would make a great addition to forge if you could place security cameras and tvs for them on maps.They would work the same as teleporters(Channels) and they would be cool for machinimas.What are your thoughts?

UPDATE:I have just created a poll for you to vote on.To vote for this idea,click **HERE**.

It isn't our shiznit anymore.

Would be great for Assymetric games.

What spectagon are you in?

Cool idea.

  • 08.25.2009 11:10 AM PDT

Hmm, finally an answer to camping? Pretty cool IMO, I don't see why not.

  • 08.25.2009 11:15 AM PDT

A lot of people don't know, but those cameras on the pit were designed to go strait to the tv's in sword room. They were taken out for networking reasons. Just a little useless info.

  • 08.25.2009 11:30 AM PDT

That would be really cool. No more campers, but then, maybe you could destroy a camera?

Nice idea!

It would be cool if your team could put up a camera anywhere, and then it plays throw a window at the top right of your screen if you want it by pressing a d pad button or something. Up to 3 cameras or something, and you can scroll through the views and if you dont want the views press a different d pad button. I also like the destroying them idea.

Really good idea. This would be sick for infection, imagine a big LCD futureistic TV in your human's base and then wam you see a zombie. Also wouldnt it be cool if those cameras were somehow connected to auto-turrets (maybe 3 diffrent kinds of turrets like the Forruner one in Halo 3 Campaign, but then UNSC and Covenent autos' to.

We need this idea in Forge. The post that I quoted convinced me (well, maybe not the auto turrets, be the infection stuff is pretty cool).

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

Would be great for Forge. Could make good equipment too.

  • 08.25.2009 1:06 PM PDT

Just enjoy the damn game!
Who cares about BR vs AR

Good idea. How would they work as equipment? Deploy them and they stick to anything?

That gives me an idea:in forge,when you spawn a camera,and drop it,it will float where ever in the air you put it.It would also stick to anything it touches.

  • 08.25.2009 1:33 PM PDT

If you already live in heaven, Where do you go when you die?

they would have to be a transperant styled object (aka players can walk through them, as to not cause strange glitches because the camera would be fairly small and immovable)

the object would have to latch onto walls easily

and the cameras would HAVE to be destroyable....

The Monitors and cameras would have to change looks for each map as to fit in with the scenery (aka human, forerunner, and covenant styled cameras and monitors)

and to make the objects more useable, the TV monitors would have to be flat screens that also latch onto walls.... just to make sure that 5 TV monitors in one room wouldn't crowd the place

Perhaps they could be destroyable, but they self destruct after 60s, so they are not too powerful.

It would be so funny sticking a guy with the camera, and i dont think the screens should be deployable, just they appear in the corner of your hud or something.

Why would self destruct?

So you cant fully rely on them. If you threw one up into an area where no-one could see it, and it would be hard to destroy, it will be really really useful. Too useful in fact. Therefore the 60s means that you have 60s without having to watch your back, but then you are back to normal.

When I posted this idea,it was meant to be a forge item not equipment

Tank beats everything!

Visit my youtube channel for Vehicular awesomeness!

Yeah, forgable cameras would be very useful and are a great idea for forge. They wouldn't work as equipment though, and explode after 60 seconds? does that even make sense?
