What exactly do people mean when they call Halo a sandbox?
-
Halo is not a sandbox game. Halo has many different weapons within its sandbox. Two different meanings.
-
Maybe they mean sandbox because of the forge. There are maps in forge that act as sandboxes that you build on top of to makes maps. Other than that I got nothing.

1 ReplyI have never seen anyone refer to halo as a sandbox. The only time that term comes up when talking about halo is when you are talking about the weapons.

1 ReplyThey mean it's not a corridor shooter like COD or BF. Though I guess the Bad Company series could be considered sandbox too. They had pretty big levels. BF3 on the other hand....

It means they don't know what sandbox means.

I've never seen someone call Halo a sandbox game. The game is way too linear, there isn't much freedom to do much.

15 RepliesThey mean that you are given an array of options and weapons to tackle one encounter. While Halo's levels are linear, they are made so that there are segmented open areas that are designed to be beaten multiple ways.

Complete freedom to approach an encounter. Each encounter is its own "sandbox." Though there's no denying the game itself is linear.

You should shit on it.
