Yes, I heard a rumor.. But uh, it's just that, a rumor. :)

No, I seriously doubt Halo 3 will have one, just wait for Halo 3 Vista. Heh.

A mapmaker would add so much replay value, especially if you can browse other peoples' maps and download them.

No, cause most of the maps you ppl will make would suck ass... No offense. I suggest Bungie just create maps that are downloadable on xbox live. Dont do the mappack Bungie... Halo 3 is going to make enough $$ as it is, but keep the multiplayer crew to create new maps for us halo lovers. This is what they do ppl, create maps, test it, ext, ext. I feel that Bungie does an extremely good job and I feel they do the best at it... So why would anyone want more? Or mabey this... Bungie can have a mapmaking contest every so often. The top ten people that they feel who layed out the best map would have Bungie create the map the way it is. Bungie would create the map and allow everyone to download, giving the person who created the map a whole less time of hassle by allowing them to only layout the map by drawing and pointing which weapons go to which area, ext, ext. Bungie, this would also allow to you to save disk space for a HUGE AND AMAZING single player experience... Also, there would be no need for a seperate disk for the map maker to come with halo 3...this saving more $$ for you.

Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, feed him for a lifetime.
Teach a man religion, and he will starve to death praying for a fish.

I'm not too fond of map editors. For the most part, they are difficult to use and often can't create exactly what you want. But I'm sure Bungie's staff will find a way to make using a map editor sickeningly easy. The button schemes for Halo 1 and 2 are the simplest control layouts of any FPS game I have played. I bet Bungie will find the easiest controls for making custom maps.

A map maker is out of the question but a map editor for chooseing the day and night options and also weather options would be fine with me.

I like to knit sweaters.....and by knit I mean PUNCH....and by sweaters I mean babies.

Macgyver can build an airplane out of gum and paper clips, but Evil One can kill him and take it.

Map makers always suck and people don't make good maps. ! Waste of time to put in to halo 3. Spend more time on Multi player and and anti-cheating.

Mapmaker = awesome.

Just make it like FarCry's and it'll be great. Just refine it or something. Also, to answer the people who are concerned about MM and custom maps, Bungie'll probably keep them seperate from MM. Maybe they'll even hold a map contest and have people submit their maps and they'll choose the best ones and jazz 'em up a little and release them in a download pack.
