Edit, Aug 2007

NOTE: This is NOT EXACTLY one of those "Post your ideas here" threads. It is here to store your gametype. If you want your ideas read and criticized, I suggest you go post here and make a new thread about it. This is a database.

Since Bungie.net is going to be a very integral part of the Halo 3 Multiplayer with saved films, gametypes, and screens hosted here. It will be very easy to come to this thread for reference via the search option if it had died. This thread can act like a database sort of thing.

Note that from the new Weekly Update, it is confirmed that Forge mode only allows 8 players to play inside at once, but Forge gametypes will allow the usual 16 players. Just keep that in mind when making your gametype.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Based on what we know about Forge map editor from here
Here

Read the link so you actually know how FORGE WORKS!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
***This is NOT an official Bungie Post (I'm not trying to make it official either, unless necessary)***

Remember the Halo 2 days? People would argue such questions. Who first made the Zombie Gametype on foundation? Who first created SWAT on Headlong? Who first invented the Tatical Conquest on Headlong? Who first imagined the D-Day invasion on Zanzibar? Those questions usually result in heated arguments between people to claim credit for creating such wonderful and popular gametypes. WHO REALLY MADE THOSE? No one really has absolute proof.


The reason for this thread is to help those people claim credit for the creation of their own gametypes. When Halo 3 comes out, and with their gametypes possibly becoming popular or famous, they can come here to this thread and prove why they deserve bragging rights. NO LONGER do you have to argue with some 10 year old about whether who was the first to make such and such gametype or who's mother is fatter? Rather than urinating like Lions to demonstrate your authority over your created game variant, you can come here and say "THERE !!! THAT is my post from before Halo 3 released about this damn sexy gametype. In YOUR FACE you annoying 10 year olds." *(No offence to any annoying 10 year olds on this forum, sorry.)


***RULES***** (more rules might be added)
-Don't use EXACT gametypes from Halo 2 (though it is allowed if you modified it a bit)
-Create your own Cool gametype
-ONLY changing the name of a previously created gametype does not qualify it as an original
-First come first serve (whoever posts first gets credit; don't worry, there are plenty of combinations, and you can use the same basic concept but change it a little)
-You gametype MUST apply to the format of FORGE.
-Good ones will be posted on the first page

QUICK POST YOUR OWN BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE THINK OF THE SAME!!

Have FUN EVERYONE!

This thread will die long before Halo 3 comes out. And you should have waited until 3 comes out so that we know all the weapons, maps, and options.

Brokeback Lasers sounds pretty tight though.

Halo 3 Service Record.

Going to 1st Marine Division. Hopefully 1st Reconnaissance Battalion (One can dream, one can dream.)

Jailbreak:

Two floating areas high above a map, that if you fall off you die.

You start out in the map, and go around killing the other team.

Each person you kill is sent to 'jail'

When the whole team is caught, they are all killed, and your team gets a point.

Every minute in Jail, you go to a one on one against someone else on another spot high above the map, where you 'fight for your freedom' the winner is set free, the loser is sent back to jail.

After X amount of minutes, if the opposing team, or your team is not put into jail, you are released.

There is a button at each base that releases the 'prisoners'.

First team to Y amount of points wins the game.

First of all why would you post it here?

Second, no one cares who came up with what.

And, if you have played Far Cry: Instincts Predator and know the community on fcmaps.net you would have a differnent stance. In the FC:IP community nobody -blam!-es about who created what maps and gametypes. It doesn't matter. All the immature 12 year olds complain and say "I created zombies you douche" but no one cares!

I kinda like this idea. But like everyone else says, it'll die sometime so your gunna have to do something about that.

Chief, you mind telling me what you're doing in that clown suit?

Sir, finishing this fight.

That would be cool if they let you use the old fashion teleporters in Forge. Then there could be a big fight and the people that are using the Forge could make teleporters to the enemies' base. And there could be a War gametype, as someone suggested the other day. The person in the forge meno could do airstrikes with falling fusion cores as the battle rages. Would be awesome man

I don't think we've seen the last of teleporters, the man cannon was an addition, not a replacement, in my opinion.

You don't get to alter geometry so you couldn't make the floaty thing.

"When written in Chinese, the word 'crisis' is
composed of two characters--one represents danger,
and the other represents opportunity."
[JFK]

name:pirate ship

level: shrine

players:16

vehicles: elephants x2, and ,mongooses x2, and banshees x2

primary wep: AR

secondary wep: shotgun

Description: ok these are the rules no one can leave the elephants unless on a mongoose or a banshee and each team will only get one. the idea is to board each others elephant and destroy it. like a ship battle you must connect the doors by driving next to there door in this mode vehicles will be destroyable including elephants you can also play CTF like this

No Matter the Size, Finish the Fight.

Map: Edited with a point of reach (make it to the spot, you win).
Gametype: Team VIP
Gamename: Transport
Time Limit: Varies on size of map
Synopsis: Basically, instead of having individual VIPs and trying to kill the heck out of them as they run, have an objective for the VIP to reach a certain extraction point, like that in Rainbow Six Vegas. If the map is editable to where you can place a spot of victory, then this will work well, but if not, then it will just go by what the host determines. One team's VIP has to make it to the point and if they reach it within the time limit, they win.

Basically, it's VIP with giving the VIP an objective.

Map: Any with the availability of two opposite sides.
Gametype: Team Slayer
Gamename: Dodgeball Redux
Time Limit: 5 minutes recommended
Number of Lives: 1 per round (3 rounds)
Weapon: Brute Shot with spawning grenades
Synopsis: I know that this gametype has been thought of before, but with the options of where to put the spawn points, this would work out great, especially on symmetrical maps or, if possible, edit the already existing maps to create 2 sides. As long as you know the objective of dodgeball, without the catch an opponent's ball and have a teammate come back in, you will have a blast playing this. Note that you can not cross to the others side under any circumstances unless you are a party pooper. Thank you.

Rain of death.

Rules- Normal weapons on map and spawn, one full time monitor on each team. Other teamates can create weapons/vehicles for themselves if they need them.

Objective-Team slayer, first to 100. Normal slayer, but monitors are trying to drop whatever they think will kill the other team on their heads. This can include boxes, fusion cores, tanks, vehicles, anything else.

Monitors and players can co-op together also. Say you're sniping on High Ground beach and you see an enemy hiding just out of your scope on the bridge. You contact and monitor, tell them where the enemy is, and get them to spawn fusion cores on their heads. You shoot a fusion core as it's dropping down on the enemy and it blows everything up, giving you the kill.

  • 07.18.2007 4:14 PM PST

Fort - 1 Person builds a fort as big as they want, the other players have to work together to break in, the person who's fort was thestrongest and lasted the longest wins.

Its not that good i know but anyway.

Btw, does forge stay permanent, e.g. If you do something on valhalla on your disc it erases the original map and replaces it with your map?

You should actually call it "Bombs Away!," in my opinion, but this is your gametype and it sounds fun.
