    I think a Golfball would also be a lot more ambarrassing to get killed by. Lulz, or a Golf Club at that matter! *Thwak!*

    Porcelain Pony... Hrrrmmmmm... well everybody really liked the one on Foundry because it really looked like a Toilet! Also it had great gameplay! But building a toilet out of these structures would just be strange.

    I don't like the remake idea just because it would look all ancient and stuff. Unless your going for that ancient kinda look. Are you? Why the hell would the Forerunners make a toilet!?

    They needed to go to the bathroom too, I mean seriously. And it could be an antique toilet because of the blocks and what their color is.

    I'd call it Pharoh's Commode. With the advances in switches it might actually be possible to flush it.

    Peasant Hunt remaks would be quite fun. The fall at the beginning would take a long time.

    Porcelain Pony would be epic win, especially if you used the crypt entrance as the drain.

    If you don't know what im talking about, I mean by using the original Porcelain Pony's "flushing" feature to send you down the crypt entrance, symbolizing the drainage pipe.

    Sadly, I think that would kill you. Didn't Bungie say you couldn't go from Skybox to middle without a teleporter, because the same probably goes with the Crypt too.

    True, I was just saying that it most likely wouldn't kill them over any real distance. But it would be enough to nock a spartan ten or twenty feet off the edge of the ship if there wasn't to high a wall in the way. That could possibly work. You could also shoot grav lifts for the same purpose, that would be a pretty cool way to get a kill.

    I don't have the skill to feel comfortable trying to remake such a great map lol.

    That's quite possible although without crates or dumpsters it would require another way of flushing. Maybe some pallets with a protective shield door. Or some antennaes.

    Maybe. But in the BWU, one of the crypt pictures looked as though it had a tunnel leading down into the Crypt from the ground level. Im baseing this "drainage pipe" idea off of that picture.

    Edit: I could see it working with the radio towers, Rusty. It would require using Man-Cannons instead of Gravlifts though.

    Yeah it is always good to think that, I mean that could have had the block in it and there could have been a power weapon, but you never know.

    Yes, you can travel down into the crypt from the main level by...jumping.

    That might have been a figure of speech....

    But maybe you can jump it. Unless Urk tells us the answer we just have to wait to find out :/

    They told us pretty straightforward how to get into the sky bubble so why not with the crypt? I'm pretty sure you can get in that way.

    *The following post is not meant to offend anyone, and I'm not trying to be rude. I am simply trying to make these people aware of what I meant*

    You guys don't get what I'm saying. I never said it ruined Sandbox. I simply said it was stupid for Bungie to do it. Why? Because (1), if you want a flat roof, you will have to waste more items to make one; and (2), it will be difficult to make very tall towers. You guys need to stop coming up with random interpretations of what I said.

    Again, I'm not trying to flame, I'm just making you aware.

    Dude, so what if I like Sandbox? I like discussing, and I know I haven't proved my point multiple times. I like Sandbox, so no need to point that out.

    So what if I don't like Foundry? It's getting old and obsolete. I have the right to share my opinions on it. Again, no need to point that out.

    I'm wondering who is worse: You for reading all my posts, and then calling me out on it, or me just trying to have good conversations with people.

    Hm... The first thing I'm going to do is create a mid-air race track. Like the modded ones in Halo 2 on Containment. Oh, good times. Good times.

    You could make something like that on standoff, Avlanche, or Foundry now. You don't have to wait for Sandbox to make one. Ofcourse you could make a really awesome one on Sandbox, but alot of maps have been made like that already.

    God thank you for that little bit of information.

    You just saved half my map ideas. :)
