Send me a friend request, me love you long time.

What do you guys think the odds are of a custom mapmaker being in Halo 3? I'm pretty sure I heard something about it being in Halo 2 Vista, so I wouldnt doubt it.

That would be so sick. I don't think they will do it, but people have been wanting it for a very long time, so you never know.

The maps wouldn't be in Match Making. Just for you and friends to play on. And it would take advantage of XBLMarketplace. The whole idea (that hasn't become anything so far) where you can use MS points to download things made by other people. Halo 3 maps would be an amazing way to make some MS points.

edit: had to clarify

i agree only for customz. if it's good enough bungie may make the best custom map will be global

THAT WOULD BE AMESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

It would be nice to have in. Maybe we'd get a second HDD for storing them (via USB)?

Custom map making is an excellent idea. I would like to see ability to create land bridges, tunnels, water, trees. I am already thinking of some. How about a map with lots of tunnels below ground with several openings to large prairie above. Call it Prairie Dog Flats

I agree initially creator would have the advantage but if it was required to be put on Marketplace to be playable then the advantage could be overcome.

Besides it would be cool to see what we all could come up with. And maybe Bungie could dedicate a portion of their website to mention Best Design, Most Outrageous, etc. Once in a while a prize but generally just bragging rights.

I think traps would be nice too. A pit covered by grass that leads to a spikey death? Ehh... I think that would lead to too much camping. But the idea seems so fun to be chased by someone and have them run into a trap.

It would be cool.
But as long as only the pre made maps are ranked, if they still have ranking systems, then it's fine.
I've always wanted to make a Halo map.

its -blam!- up: everybody makes only "funmaps" and if you want to join a party,
every time you have to download a map for about 2 minutes.

Then don't play UCC (user-created-content)

I wouldn't mind downloading a good map, I could share my own and create things and not bug Bungie for more.
