Sandbox Discussion - Watch your spam.. (Interview links in OP)

I remember that! IT WAS SO MUCH FUN! It was easy to get to the top if you knew how.

 

I don't wanna call it a sky bubble. its not a sphere or an ellipse or anything like that. its got a flat surface. therefore: box! lol.

how did you do it, cake?? (btw the cake is a lie )

 

I made sure my jump was at the very edge, so the gravlift's extra pull helped me up.

 

Well, lets not confuse it with the skybox, which is a larger box made up of images to create the sky of the map...

I.E the sky bubble, isn't the skybox, even though it may be shaped like one...

 

oh. i was already calling it skybox. 0_o didnt even realize it's called sky buble.

ps. someone should help me get this pesky "spoiler alert/ Show/ Hide" thingy to work.

 

I think people are just putting the two (Sandbox and Sky Bubble) together, therefore the word Skybox is created.

And the only reason people call it a Sky Bubble is because that's what Bungie called it in the interview.

It's almost like how the word Mancannon just stuck, even though Bungie said it was just a temporary name.

 

True dat, yeti. True dat.

 

Wait, so do you have to save/quit every object in the skybox, or is there a transparent object floor?

 

It is like a solid floor, meaning you can just place immovable objects on it without the Q/S.
=]

 

no, you can just set objects on the floor, but you will fall throug

 

Let me answer some questions with a few pictures.

​

How did no one else see that tele?

See its not a skybox because it is not square

Awesome! I can make Windtunnel v5 in the sky bubble!

 

WINDTUNNEL FTW. You have too Chips. Also random note who invented the Team Raver gametype. cause im making a team rave map.

 

I just had a pretty good idea.

Remember the map Tunnel Raid? Well, you can make a bigger, better version of that map!

I'm so doing it, and calling it Yeti Raid.

 

That maker is I. Fbu made Rave Flag. By the way, I DID start making Windtunnel v5 on foundry, but I might as well scrap it now.

 

Yeti's in the sand?

 

Hmmm, Val, making your Space tether design yet?
;]
If you aren't I will!

 

Team Raver gametype? please fill me in on this lol. (I don't hear much about gametypes)
Man the map possibilities on this are epic tho.

 

Yeah.. it doesn't make sense, but it will happen.

 

Team Raver:
Basically, it's a rave, with only shiny weapons.
There are only needlers, plasma rifles, plasma nades, and I believe plasma pistols.
correct me if I'm wrong on that last one...
The maps are generally VERY small.
