Remember,
It is easy to be male
it is another thing to be a man.

Blast, US only.
Still good luck to all you who are entering.

Wow! that sounds awesome. I'd do anything to get my map in matchmaking.

I read the contest rules and I'm concerned that I can't enter as I live in the UK.

Did i misunderstand or is this contest US only?

If it is and I can't enter what are the chances of a world wide comp with no physical prize maybe?

As thrilling as a signed Console would be I'm more hyped about the chance to get into matchmaking as I'm sure many of your non US fans are.

Is there going any other way to submit a map for playlist consideration?

Sorry for the 20Qs but I'm desperate!

Great contest, can't wait to see what the winners devise!

Although im surprised the prize is an xbox 360, signed by bungie or otherwise. Wouldn't an armor effect be a better reward for winning? Blue flames (seeing as they are adding content to the game, they might as well get a bungie employee perk ;)) or even a winner only color.. green would be cool.

I plan to try my hand at the challenge regardless. Good luck forgers :)

DO THE IMPOSSIBLE.

I'm in the UK.
I lol'd at this entry.
Oh well.

High Tide FTW.

  • 10.14.2010 9:07 AM PDT

Sweet! I already have 2 maps made. now I 'm going to have to tweak them.

  • 10.14.2010 9:07 AM PDT

First page! Stinks not to be in the US for it though.

  • 10.14.2010 9:08 AM PDT

I wish that Multi-Team was a map variant. I will be hard at work! I have some great ideas that I think Bungie will like.

Eek, wall of text warning much? I'll read the rules later. SO MANY...

  • 10.14.2010 9:19 AM PDT

ik hoef geen coke als ik pepsi

US only.. thats a real letdown.. there are so many players outside the US, kinda dissepoints me.. anyway goodluck fellow forgers!

  • 10.14.2010 9:23 AM PDT

Sounds like a fun thing to do.

My only worry isn't directly related to the contest but this:

With the imminent release of the Noble Team Map Pack our job is wrapping up but yours has only just begun.

Does that mean Bungie's done with Reach after this map pack? :(

..envelope before November 30, 2007

nevertheless.. a great thing. im already looking forward to the outcome.

edit. and yes its very sad its restricted to US people. The rest of the world has good designers too! Dont exclude them in the chance of creating a matchmaking map.
(see behind the contest, and even you! are selling it as a chance to create a map for halo matchmaking, for public use! this even has a arrogant touch to me, if focused on that point.)

I wear the cheese, it does not wear me.

This account is now retired due to WLID changing. Webteam needs to fix that, seriously >.>

Bahhhhh! Should have stuck "Each Entrant must be an individual who is a legal resident of the United States and at least 17 years of age." right at the top of the article.

no. But youll get new Forge features in the new maps.. and theire wrapping up from those "noble maps" and let you play ehm work on them.

  • 10.14.2010 9:59 AM PDT

I've got a couple of really good maps on the way, but I'm in the UK... :/
Is there any chance of a similar competition for people in other regions to get their maps in matchmaking?

I agree that there should be a worldwide challenge, with or without prizes. It doesn't seem fair to exclude so many great forgers just because they don't live in the United States. Bungie, if you are working on something for us Canadians, Europeans, and what have you, then great! If not then I have to say i'm highly disappointed and let down as a Canadian fan.

Bungie, set up everything legal in Canada so that all North Americans can participate. I live on the 49th parallel, and this stupid technicality removes the fun from the community for a generous portion of your audience.

It's too bad I live in Canada. I would love to be able to enter this.
