Can't wait to see the results of this! Great contest guys! real generous!
-
I'm going to add that I'm also disappointed the contest is for US residents only. It's not very fair.. why not limit the game to just the United States then? If you're going to have a global audience, at least give them an equal chance... there may be a very talented map maker using your forge feature, and you won't even know it because he/she does not live in the US. More than half of the people in this topic are already complaining about this. I really hope you reconsider, Bungie! I too am in Canada and would love to be able to enter.
-
Wow, this is awesome!
-
You'd think Bungie would look at this thread and notice that 80% of it is people complaining about region only. US only = lame.
-
If you do not live in the US you should still be able to enter, just not eligible for prizes, or something.

Hey can I still submit a map? I live in Canada and I'm not really looking for a prize. I'd really just like to put my map to matchmaking. Anomaly is in for an extreme makeover to work with matchmaking.

You've heard the call, Bungie... Lets see if you answer or not.

great, A chance to enter my newly forged map into a competition! me and mates were just discussing what would happen if there was a chance it could get into matchmaking!! then I read the terms and conds as it say..... US only .. ¬.¬ pooft, there goes opportunity :/ when can we have a non US only competition? will there ever be one? prize or no prize, getting into matchmaking is awesome enough!! :D :O
-
Awesome I got two maps made going to make the maps a little better.I want that signed Xbox 360 so bad also cant wait to see my map in matchmaking!!
-
I suppose I'm out of luck if my map requires a specific game-type as well? It's a grifball-meets-infection-meets-dodgeball, plus anti-safe havens. Yeah, I haven't found the best way to explain it quite yet. [Edited on 10.14.2010 12:45 PM PDT]

Does anyone know if we will have some degree of control over the gametype? Invasion might not have the same effect without that.
-
I'm just going to quickly add my annoyance at "US-Only". Darnit me for being Canadian.
-
Eh, it got my hopes up. That's twice now us non-US residents have missed out on something like this. Can someone please explain why we are not allowed to enter? I cannot comprehend that there is any legal bindings which stop Microsoft or Bungie for that matter from compensating for fans who live outside the USA and have just as much reason to enter as any US citizen does. Please, someone elaborate. Other than that, good luck to anyone who enters, I guess. Make something nice, something I'll enjoy, something we can all enjoy. Don't blow your chances when so many of us are missing out on this. Cheers -K-

Question: The map I plan to submit to the race catagory is VERY large, so much so that it works best if only one lap is used when played on. Is there any way to factor this in?
-
I might actually try this out... I've got a particular map that's really turning out well. It's awesome already, but I have some ascetic ideas to make it even better... I think I'll have to balance it out more, though. Maybe I'll hide all the power weapons sneakily so I don't have to get rid of any of them. I might enter both of the files on my file share - but 'Balance' needs more work before its complete. Some ascetic construction, perhaps. The other one, my first map ever - that one's almost entirely ready. It just needs more detailing work. [Edited on 10.14.2010 12:13 PM PDT]

No, they probably lost all their art designers after the announcement of the new DLC. :P
-
wow lame... i was so happy to put my creative skills to the test up to where I read United States residents only... When is bungie going to include all of north america? Well too bad Bungie, it's your lost.
-
Does bungie even follow there fun factor rules The cage is horrible and infection in this game is horrible and broken Please change roll to infinite run
-
It's too bad I live in Canada. I would love to be able to enter this.
-
I am soooo on this.
-
Already have two maps, Gotta learn how to invasion. :)
-
I'm definitely entering my map in. just gotta make a vid now.
-
Bungie, set up everything legal in Canada so that all North Americans can participate. I live on the 49th parallel, and this stupid technicality removes the fun from the community for a generous portion of your audience.
-
I agree that there should be a worldwide challenge, with or without prizes. It doesn't seem fair to exclude so many great forgers just because they don't live in the United States. Bungie, if you are working on something for us Canadians, Europeans, and what have you, then great! If not then I have to say i'm highly disappointed and let down as a Canadian fan.
