Bungie, please allow us to make maps via computer. much easyer. just give us a map editor. some really neat blam can come of it.

take valves hammer editor for example.

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

He JUST said via computer. Anyways it would be way to difficult for your average person to fool around with. That's why forge is so amazing. Anyone can make a playable map within a very short time. If they had it on the 360 it would at least be more accessible to people.

Yes, a computer editor would be nice to have. Map creation would be much easier and better looking.

No offense, but you have no idea how a real computer based editor works do you?

They could do like a hardcore mad editor on the pc and a more player friendly forge on the 360 with more tools in it then halo 3. The computer based made maps could be uploaded to your bungie account and then be pended to be downloaded on your 360.

But i want bungie to adopt the section 8 server system so the server owner can make his own map rotation. Dont know how big the map will be in reach but if they are like 8 mb then people can download them easily. And if its class based then please make something like enemy territory thats still in my eyes the best class based shooter.

  • 09.27.2009 2:08 AM PDT

Epic Games asked Microsoft if they could do this before, they where allowed to do it on ps3 only, and ms denied them. Bungie probably wont be allowed to do it either.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Why? Custom Games are so much more customizable than Map Rotation. And the playlists are a keeper, don't get rid of those, they keep competitive play competitive.

They should just use FarCry Instincts map maker. It was very easy and you could pretty much do whatever. If the orginal Xbox could handle a map maker, then so should the 360.

Far Cry's Editor has never been nearly as good or effective as Doom Builder. Alot of people don't even know about it, so I can see why most think Far Cry has the best editor around.

I see it that although forge can be a nightmare, the better forgemaps come from more talented people, so while its hard to use and all.
At least its rewarding, while I would love a new one, which is easier to use, I don't want the 'elite' forging community like the Ghosts of Onyx or forgehub to be swapped for every halo player in the world.

True, but Doom Builder is a PC editor. I doubt the 360 could handle it, I could see maybe a light version of Doom Builder but even then it's hard to say. A newer version of FC's editor would be more than perfect. They pretty much are heading in that direction, I don't see Bungie changing forge around that much though.

If your over 21 and play for fun check out CLAN ARC We are a multi-game, multi-platform community that puts the fun back into gaming.

What about the Unreal Editor, using the Unreal 3 Engine.

My third montage!

Just give us a more robust and inclusive forge system. A grid to work from, Objects that snap together. Make geomerging and interlocking built in to the forge system. Copy and paste. Say you build a small structure and you don't like it's placement or you want more than one, copy the whole thing and forge it where you want. 45, 90 snap-to on all objects. Multiple textures on all objects. Mostly I just want my snap feature!

It may not have been the best creator, but it did it's job well. I've seen some truly amazing things come out of there, but they are buried under all the crap. The beauty of that system is that it isn't all that difficult to use if you have the brainpower to move your thumbs around. You can also interlock and geomerge without all the glitching you have to do with Forge.

Posted by: TubbierPainter
how about we let forge be forge, but wih glue tool, snap tool, float tool, and more things.

if you want FarCry map editor, play FarCry, if you want unreal mapmaker, go play unreal tournement, but keep forge what it is, FORGE,


So you don;t want inovation that will be good for the long run, and make your gaming experience much more pleasurable? Or do you play MLG, and want nothing to do with inovation, and fun?

Forge is fine and all, but I think it should have some other "optional" functions. People have mentioned them already, but that's just for convenience.
