Having a map editor would allow to many people to make little sniper holes, or little holes with power ups and ammo for weapons. Just like in one of the matches between some of the employees. It was Map Designer vs. Animator i think, and the animator keeps telling the map designer he puts little hidy holes in the map with life and power ups

according to OXM (official xbox magazine), xbox live 3.0 might possibly include mod/map editing tools/capabilities. Also, i think that the delays warrant compensation. BOTS would be awesome and helpful for those who do not have live.

how would you edit maps on an xbox any way? if you did then they probably would be pretty lame.

Deffinitely Bots,
But a map editor is probably out of the question
I mean it would be one crappy map after another, and noobs would go wild with ones u cant even navigate or just straightaways
i mean there would be a couple good ones but i would be happy with what bungie provides us

I think their will be bots offline but not a map editor. However I think they should have a map editor of some kind for halo 2 either in the game or on your computer. And say for the computer map editor idea, you would have a program (probably bigger then one that could be on the disk) and you would send in your maps to Bungie and if they liked them then they would make them dl content for halo 2. This idea does have weak points like the time needed for bungie to look at these maps and perhaps people hacking or altering the program inorder to make somehow bugged maps.

Yes, in reply to the post about allowing holes for ammo, Do not you think that if a Map Making feature was implemented, that they woulf have them go through a submission station for review, before they are allowed for download?

a map editor would be cool
no it would be awesome
if people put sniper spots or power ups
it wouldn't be fun so those maps wouldn't
be played only the good maps would get a lot of traffic

  • 04.14.2004 7:49 PM PDT

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

Or they could make it so your own multiplayer maps couldn't be played over Live...Or the map editor could be single player only. Even a single player only map editor would add an incredible new dimension to the game. The replay value would be almost infinite once you learned how to use the editor.

as to how maps would be edited on live, i have no idea. However, it is confirmed that live 3.0 will have a feature that allows players to upload data from the hard drive that other players could later download onto their xbox from a microsoft server. (possibly gamesaves, levels, mods) but nobody knows what exactly yet.

I think bots would be nice, just cause sometimes I get bored with the campain levels...but i wanna kill someone, but noboby is there to kill. Bots would totaly solve that problem...for me atleast.

If u have an xbox modchip (You can get those u know! u have to take apart ur box and put it in) u can transfer map cache files from the box to PC mod them and put the files back into the box. But I really don't think there will be a real map editor made by bungie. Maybe bots but my guess is no because playing against bots is not as fun or challenging as playing against humans and bungie realizes that... I think lol? they don't react to corpse humping. :(
