Sorry, I'm kinda new to B.net and I'm still catching up on how stuff works.I would just never forgive myself if an idea as good as this got tossed 'cause of bumping that I took part of.

its fine. the only really wrong thing with bumping is when it has no point to it. i think we have been getting away with it so much because most people do like this idea, so there is nothing wrong with the intent to share it.

so dont worry about it and thanks for all you have done so far.

we are almost to our next goal of 300 votes! keep it up!

I love this idea. It would fill in so many positions: An invasion map, a BTB map, and it's large enough to be another Forgeworld map. It would be hard to keep the size and detail, but they made Forgeworld work out, so they could probably get it to work.

I love to play anything bungie! Friend me on steam my profile name is Swinestein.

Sweet this threads only been up for one day and we have 280 votes! And with a 94% to 6% I'd say we got a good chance of this pulling through.

"Everyone, fire at Will!"
"Why? What did Will ever do to you?"

We certainly do need more invasion maps.
The same 3 maps over and over again get kind of stale...

A sandtrap-esque map would not only be fun, but it's overall theme and landscape would add a lot of variety to the invasion playlist and Reach as a whole.

Plus, there's a good possibility for elephants to be included! :P

There's only one problem, if 343 Industries doesn't sees this, it won't happen. So you may want to contact someone there and send them a link to this so they can see what our demand is, and then they better supply it.

i just asked in the community forums how i can contact them.

I didn't think about that. Now that there's armor lock the Chopper would lose a lot of it's splatterific qualities. But I suppose that would balance it out.

yeah it still has the big guns to kill the guy once it comes out of AL...

I think this would be an awesome idea. It does seem like it was meant for invasion.

  • 02.13.2011 12:57 PM PDT

Yeah, I miss the choppers and loved sandtrap. Do it Bungie!

but the chopper isnt really made for that is it? no one ever used it without boosting into the enemy first, the guns were just used when you couldnt get to them.

Even if someone armor locked i feel like the chopper would just drive over the top like it does to vehicles sometimes. If it does that then you can just go for another pass.

Hi!

I love it! Come on we need to keep this alive.

I love the possibilities of having various capture zone and objective types to carry the invasion variant.

Imagine capture 1 of 3 territories on the map each one having a different outcome to be accomplished in sage 2, anothe hill area, planting a bomb, taking the core to another location to unlock something etc etc etc.
