what?

  • 10.23.2010 8:24 PM PDT

Shameless plug for my blog:

Check it!

Can international people enter if they have no expectation of getting the Xbox as the prize? I'd be happy with having my map accepted for matchmaking.

Or could I have the map sent to a friend in the US?

I'm just curious here and would love an answer,

thanks in advance.

I have an Invasion Map called Silo Attack. I have a video up on youtube - title - Halo Reach: Silo Attack Invasion Map - showing how the map was played out. It was reworked 3 plus times so that balance was there for both teams. All spawns work along with all the objectives. The core capture point isn't miles away like others I have seen and there is multiple ramps leading to the drop off point. I encourage you to test out this map for yourselves. Be sure to have at least 5v5 on it because it is more fun with more people. :) The map works with standard Invasion but NOT Invasion Slayer. Happy forging and good luck.

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.



I know...I was just tryna finda this for a long time, and to see it read as US-ONLY??!?!


Bungie, wth?


Idc much about the 360 (though it'd be nice).


At least Canadians and British forgers should be included...otherwise it should be a worldwide challenge. Or NEXT TIME A NATIONAL CHALLENGE FOR EACH COUNTRY THAT CAN BE ELIBIBLE.


I'm very dissappointed, cuz I honestly believe that I have a map that can work or MOST of these game modes.


Again, the 360 would be nice, but I wish there would be a worldwide (or NA/UK) challenge to put user-created maps in MM.

He's just a genius in the computer and game world. Enough said.

I'm gonna jump on this sadface train here because guess why I'm ineligible. Oh well maybe I'll submit it anyways in hopes that they might at least look at it even if it's not eligible.

  • 10.24.2010 12:36 PM PDT

Ok this is just silly. People are asking intelligent questions, and not a single response? That's kind of disgusting. I know it's easy to look at the forums and dismiss the entire community as a bunch of whiny babies, but people are asking legitimate questions here. It would be great as your fans to have a response.


Thank you, sir.

I really want to know if my map is still eligible if it requires a custom Invasion gametype. I've already posted once on this forum and I've e-mailed the contest address three times. No response... Why encourage us to e-mail and discuss in the forums if there is no intention to respond?

I just need to know if I can include my own custom gametype in the set that contains my map, screenshots, etc.

I cant believe this is only US only :(!
Please Bungie let UK (Europe) enter, I will happily pay for the extra delivery cost should I win and if that's not even possible, I should have the same chance of getting my maps shown.

Yeah Canada dissevers a chance TOO!!!

After spending a good bit of time putting together a rather complex Invasion map, I just noticed today that the contest is resticted to the US... My fault for missing that bit of info, but pretty weak for Bungie to restict it in that way! Wasn't even that bothered about a prize, just wanted to get my map on the playlist.

Anyone know if the contest is resticted to US residents? Or can US citzens in a foreign country still apply?

Can anyone tell me if I can submit more then one map into the forgetacular contest? \
*-I know I need 5 slots per map (Bungie Pro)
*-I know I can only enter each map into only one category and only one entry per category

  • 10.25.2010 5:46 PM PDT

I'm reading the rules and have a question.

May I submit a map into more than one category? I don't see anything in there saying I can't. I have a map that plays for Team Slayer, is Symmetrical, and can run CTF. Just want to make sure.

If I can, do I have to tag everything (screenshots and film) 3 times and send 3 separate emails or can I just do one submission but label it as TS;SYMM;CTF?

Why Only US. Its not fair. We do so many good maps what should be included.

Really dissapointed

I have waited for year's for something like this. I am very disappointed that its not a world wide competition.

  • 10.26.2010 5:04 AM PDT

I really think that if bungie wanted more to play halo reach (not to mention all the other halos') they should make more international contests... Maybe they're just too lazy to go through hundreds of maps? GET BETA TESTERS or simrthing to test them... I think its unfair thaT half of the world dont have a chance to win this contest... Whos with me?

Words can be broken, so can bones.

I noticed the prizes are only available to american residents, IF a canadian were to submit a map, would it still be considered for inclusion to matchmaking, or is that strictly american as well?

  • 10.26.2010 5:00 PM PDT

everyones a critic: I like your base but I hate your capture points. they're too open to long range attacks as well as grenade attacks. I know you're going for closeR, but it is waaaaay too small. there is a happy medium between your map, and boneyard. cut spire in half for 3 scores per side and it'd own. this feels like invasion on Cliffhanger with no rocks. also, good invasion spawns elites with human assault weapons, everyone knows elite assault weapons are feautile against the humans but you can't upgrade otherwise it's long range vs assault and that's already unfair. your map is balanced but if you want criticism, there it is: a few jogs too small and hill areas are just too open.

A pre-foundry forger.

Is there a category for 'overall most-awesome map'? Because that's where my Sovereignty's going.

  • 10.27.2010 1:06 PM PDT

  • 10.28.2010 1:11 PM PDT

I hate how the contest isn't in all of North America, i live in Canada so I can't enter this contest, and I have some really good maps too that I would love to enter in this contest.
