Dear Bungie Studios and 343 Industries:

sure why not

This is an idea that i completely support, i loved that map and a
better version would only be better.

sure, idea sounds great

Yes

Sounds...ok.

I can totally see this happening.

Yes.

I love this Idea.

When I first found out how Invasion would work, I remembered that
article and thought how good that version of Sandtrap would be for it.

good idea OP.
props on the research, going that far back.

This is an excellent thread. I agree 100% and hope your idea comes to
fruitition.

Really good idea

My head is beginning to explode this is such a good idea.


really good idea

I want this map

I would love this as both a forge map and a vehicle map!

They really need to bring it back, something along the lines of "Forge
Desert" would be amazing.

awesome idea
BUNGIE please make it

I love this idea C'mon Bungie DO IT!

okay, its a good idea

Wait, the sandtrap from that update forever ago? I would love that

this would be sweet.

Hot topic and top topic!

This sounds like a fun idea. I would play it.

bumping for hoped success!!!

Sounds interesting

This is an excellent idea

This I would definitely pay 10 bucks for

i remember reading that update and being dissapointed it was never
fully explored.

we definitely need something like this

this would be amazing

Great Idea!

i just answered yes. the more the better...

I'd be all for it,

Yeah this sounds good. :D

So when is this petition going to be established?

(Needs map, speechless)

awesomely epically hoping they will listen and answer

I like how everybody is giving good ideas and feedback. I have yet to
see flaming or hate. I like the way this is going, we may have a
successful thread on our hands.


And many, many more to come, just post your thoughts!


TL;DR Bungie designed Sandtrap as a vehicle driven Invasion map, Halo
3 didn't have Invasion so the map got cut, now on Reach we have
Invasion and would love to have the old concept of the map a reality
on Reach as DLC.

ATTENTION EVERYONE SINCE I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT 343 STUDIOS IS NOW IN CHARGE OF REACH DLC I HAVE POSTED THIS SAME THREAD OVER TO THEIR PAGE PLEASE GO THERE IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE THIS THREAD TO BE MORE SUCCESSFUL.







ADDING ON TO THE IDEA/SUGGESTION SECTION

11. sandtrap has smooth curves and adaptable driving terrain, thats something you cant build in forge world.

12. this is my own idea, but i think it would be widely agreed upon by the rest of the voters, what if bungie put the target locator into the forge budget for this map? think about it: the map has no roof or overhang, and it is a flat, open desert where anything is a target. for example, it could be balanced out by just firing one missile (same as all the rest just only one of them), capable of wiping out pockets of enemies trying to take the objective in invasion. still overpowered? try making that missile weaker so it doesnt get you an overkill, but gives the enemies some bad shell-shock for your teammates to move in and mop-up.

13. this next idea has been dearly wanted since halo 3's release. troop hogs for custom games. i can safely assume it would take bungie very little time to put these already created vehicles into a DLC map. custom games would get a massive boost out of this, thus increasing the overall replay value of reach.
i r yay 4 ths xD

Who is this crazy darkpig guy anyway?

With almost as much or even more freedom than foot soldiers with some old and new vehicles added to the mix that should make Sand Trap a driver's paradice.

I think that the Idea for bringing sandtrap back wouldnt be good or bad,but I admit I miss the times when you could have the elephants and fight for control of them

Damn it, he's banned. I was going to put this on a document just in case if the Reach forums were to be deleted :(


Fortunately, I was not permanently banned.
