  • *Ignores complaint to Bungie above as am sick of replying to crap like that* Forge has a lot of potential and I beleive this is just the beginning of a massive Forge Update that will eventually be completely released. Forge Glue and stuff is probabyl being worked on by Bungie so just be patient. Anyways, I wanna use the Filters on the old maps! Please Bungie?

  • will the camera veiws be seen while playing the game or just while a camera, because i think it would be great to see a gloomy or juicy or any other type of filter while play, just to give different map variants their own "kick" or style oh and JF Kennedy9 has some really good ideas [Edited on 04.04.2008 11:36 PM PDT]

  • Been counting down for the weekly update since Monday and tbh I was quiet dissapointed when I read it. Both about it's content but as well about what I expected. I expected some more news about Team S.W.A.T in the daily playlist hopper and I actually hoped for a release date, but not a single thing about SWAT was said. Then Forge, I know alot of people like forge and I'm one of them but this is not gonna make us alot more excited Bungie, it has been suggested so many times on the forums and thousands of happy forgers have given their opinion about how Forge could be best improved for weeks and not a single time a Bungie employee took notice of the post or at least didn't take the time to tell us whether what we were wanting to get into forge was actually even possible. It's all sweet and cool trust me, new objects are always a nice thing to have, but at this moment most of us forgers are so frustrated by various things in Forge that all we want now is an improvement of the way forge works and not what items we can use in Forge. The current way is so basic and there's only very SLIGHT adjustments needed to make it so much more FUN that I'm still wondering why Bungie didn't take the opportunity to improve forge with the upcoming Map Pack. For those of you who don't get what I'm talking about, some slight improvements that could be made to forge are: * Forge "glue" * 5 Degree rotation possibility on the D-pad * Ability to lock objects, so that if you are trying to place them somewhere and they hit another object they don't get out of control right away but instead they stay in the same position until you "unlock" it again. * Many more building materials in ALL levels Those are just some improvements that are definitely needed to make forge alot more enjoyable and it will for sure create much better maps than what we've seen so far. Besides the basic improvements I can also come up with some more "heave improvements" which I'm not sure of whether they are actually possible to create but it would be cool if something of this could be incorparated into forge. * A terrain tool * Color pallete for objects and environment * Ability to change weather or time of day * Bots * An "undo" and "delete all" button * Unused vehicles (passenger Hog, AA Wraith etc.) * Standardized builing supplies for all levels (you can use all the same stuff on all the maps) As you can see there's alot of things that can be improved concerning the current forge, some of them are probably impossible to create but I'm sure that the basic ones on top should be able to make it into forge. There's been polls concerning this, and some posts even asks people how much they would be willing to pay for all these improvements if it were to be some sort of DLC. I personally agree that these improvements should already have been there since Halo 3's release and therefore if they are coming in any kind of DLC they should be free, but IF we would have to pay for them I, and many more others, are willing to pay up to TWO COMPLETE map packs (1600 Microsoft Points), just to indicate our concerns about Forge. I hope you get my points Bungie, improve/REPAIR forge first before you invest in it by creating new items that are gonna have the same complications when we go into forge again...

  • Wow, I am not going to be able to sleep tonight. The filters are the coolest things I have ever seen in my life. That should be fun for Infection. The watchtower things look sweet, that'll be fun for sniping. This is my most favoritest weekly update. Ever.

  • New items for forge: Cool (but could we PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF CORTANA have adjustable man-cannons!?) Camera Filters: Ummm... what? Honestly, a lot of people who take snap-shots are doing a SUPER close up of them shooting the Spartan Laser or some other explosion, and the picture is all about the colors and sparkles. Little kid stuff essentially. Bungie... Forge is a GREAT idea... but you've really gone the wrong way with it! NOBODY Forge to play a Slayer match; People use Match Making or Custom games to play a Slayer match. PEOPLE ONLY USE FORGE TO BUILD MAPS! Would it really be impossible to make a Right Angle Adjustment feature using the D-Pad, so it wouldn't be so insanely frustrating to make new maps? You know! Some sort of control so that the object you're holding isn't ALWAYS reacting the way it would in a real game?

  • So, if I'm reading this right, you can put those filters in the middle of your map so a certain part or all of it gets black and white? I'm not really following this description, but it seems like it could be a good idea if I'm hearing it right.
