    hmm. i think im going to remake guardian. remember that old map no one ever forges on anymore???

    I would imagine Skybubble being pretty huge, wouldnt take much processing power, since in essences, it is just a big empty space, with no walls floors etc. to take into account.

    people need to stop adding unnecessary tags. no one is ever going to do a tag search for "coverable pit" or "pancake" or "what? no tags"

    all this is doing is diluting the search system and tag database.

    excessive abuse of the tagging system will result in it being disabled for normal members


    Bungie won't be making Foundry obsolete. They aren't dumb. Foundry will still have its uses. So though I do agree that there is an underground area, I highly doubt it will be Foundry size.


    I'm sure we'll have something like this for yall

    i hate you.

    I can't really be bothered reading every page... but.. on the heat map.. there's a hole in the centre.

    Pancake theory = truth.

    Yes the pancake theory is true wther or not there is a lower level. it still proves the fact that there are multiple levels to forge on in one map making this the breakthrough in forging many have been hoping for.

    I actually believe in a lower level due to this pic

    Notice how the deathball is slightly submerged in the centre of the map? that = hole

    Plus I ain't seen a pic of Sandbox without a structure or object that would cover the hole...

    But I don't think EB games is doing a midnight release. At least that is the current word from my local. Will talk to the manager tomorrow.


    I'll be working on it as soon as it is available on my Xbox So don't you worry.
    It won't be a full budget glitched map though (cause I don't know how to do that) just a canvas with all the default stuff (spawns and gametype specifics included) neatly organized off to the side of the sky box if you can grab things from below and drag it down, or on the dunes if you cannot.

    Maybe one each.

    Dunes it is then.

    Think that will be one of the least used areas anyway.

    Waylander. Interlock the identical immovable objects to save space :)

    I can't tell if you're serious.. Hmmm lol.

    Can't wait to see all the crazy maps people make. I'm so daunted by sandbox's possibilities.

    Don't interlock them all, if you do it'll make a massive mess to find the object you're looking for when trying to re-use those materials...

    Another obvious comment. Only interlocking same objects with same objects.

    Double boxes with double boxes walls with walls and so on. Each individual item will have their own spot.

    If I can't interlock them I'll figure something else out. Don't worry it will be nice and neat and organized.

    I'm loving the Underground theory guys. There are so many little clues everywhere that it seems very believable.

    My favourite one was the Old Timey Filtered pic with the "Well" in the middle. It's almost screaming out "Hey look what we did here!"

    It's almost fact that there's a hole there. Of course it could just be a small little hole, possibley housing the skull. I don't see why they wouldn't just do the teleporter thing again (like with the skybox) but to an underground cavern...

    I'm going to be optimistic though!
