    My guess is that it will turn into a suicide. I'm not sure who deleted the tags (I remember someone saying they deleted them earlier in the thread) but "what? no tags?" is still there.

    The first map I'm building will be entirely inside of a giant SandCrawler:

    Just make sure the tracks leading to it are single file.

    Yeah, I was the one that noticed that. Only a few dissapeared. Anyway I think hte star wars stuff is a good idea. It is large enough for it. And my plan is if you can see the killballs and there are enough, make a hedge maze. Of lava.

    If the killballs are suicides, then they'll NEED to be obvious, or at least not invisible, because if you got blown up on accident because you didn't notice the thing, the added respawn time is gonna be...annoying. To say the least.

    Actually... I change my mind. It'll probably be killed by the guardians. Because it's not like you actually harmed yourself, you just walked into a ball. It's the same as falling off of a ledge or a bomb on sandtrap exploding and killing you.

    Falling off a ledge no, sandtrap mines yes. when you fall off a ledge it counts as a suicide.

    Wow I can't believe I forgot that. I usually never fall off the edge though anyway. When I do it usually counts as someone else's kill.

    I just thought of a great idea for a map, a map with several floors, and if the killballs work like we suspect, you can make a floor is lava map, but the lave rises over time!

    I was actually thinking of that, but there's no way I'm making it. I'll just be sure to watch out for your version.

    It better be good!!

    QFT.

    But to make this post not spam, I have to say that I can't wait for the weekly update today. Bungie loves to surprise us and now it's less than a month before it's released.

    This is the first map I'm going to make:

    [​IMG]


    Going to be the most epic map to date! Might have to get rid of the grass, the dirt, the rocks, the hills, and the bright blue sky. But other then that, this map will get Featured in no time!

    I will call it Conkerlation and it will rock everybody's sox.

    By the way... if I did release this map, what would you rate it out of 5? Just wondering!

    LOL you seem very cocky today. The first thing i am going to forge is a huge enclosed map much like paragon except larger. It looks like budget glitching this map might provide for many opportunities.

    I bet the first major map we see in custom games is the pyramid of Giza. Because of other forgers amazing originality.

    I say don't give away ideas, because then you're just giving others the option to steal them.

    haha
    It's just as if Halo 3 is releasing all over again! Except with newbies and oldies. I say " . . . . " -oh wait, then i'd just be giving everything away to the newbies... now that wouldn't be very fun.

    Some Bungie employees said that we'd hit the item limit before we hit the budget limit. I think they made the map budget glitch proof. Good for them.

    I tbh think it will always be possible, theres a few different ways to do it, they knew about budget glitches when they released cold storage but they didnt patch it did they. They know that its a good thing. tbh I think people that use it are smart enough to not put everything in one spot and f*** up the map they just deny they think its a good idea and release it to everyone because they think newbies will screw about and make loads of laggy ass maps..

    How many more maps like Cenotaph, Verbatim, and Phoenix do you people need to realize that you don't need the stupid budget glitch to make a quality map?
