I have a simple question to ask you guys. I have been forging on Foundry for awhile and it's gotten easy and fun to do all the glitches. But on the new maps is seems harder and more ridged to make things melt smoothly and to just overall forge on it. It seems like bungie gave us more objects with different angles with the intent to stop the melting objects glitch. BTW what do you think about the new maps with forging? And yes I know people make maps on there that are descent on these new ones. But I have yet to see a nice interlocked map. Most people are ass raping the map with castles and such. But yes I'll also admit I was spoiled with Foundry.
I disagree. I don't really think that the maps suck for forging; they just need a little more creativity. I couldn't really tell what you meant by "melting" (interlocking?), though, so this may not be a legitimate answer. It may seem harder because you are used to forging on Foundry, basically a canvas for forging, as it was made for it. In Foundry, there are many options and ideas that can be implemented. While the new maps are different in respect to Foundry, that does not mean they suck for forging. Rather, one must use creative ways to implement the map geometry to help forge a map.
Well then I have the answer to your problem. Creativity Like Phast said it requires you to be imaginative. Its actually pretty cool because its like forging on the old maps with immovable objects instead of having to use teleporters. Also I'm pretty sure I saw some where a canvas outside of Blackout thats bigger than Foundry (or something like that. I didn't really look at it)
Umm yeah like stated above, no map sucks for forging, you just suck at forging in that map. Being creative might make these maps less of "a ***** to deal with" and more of "I absolutely love what I can do with them because I'm creative"
Yes I know creativity, I planned a damn creative racetrack out on avalanche but couldn't execute it due to the way it forges and yes I meant interlocking, I haven't seen any cool interlocking maps on avalanche. And I have heard about that spot but can't get there is there by chance a canvas you could point in my direction? And Federal I'm not even going to acknowledge what you said your most dl's map has 72dls while mine has over 9000+.
I can understand how anyone who only started forging after Foundry came out would be put out. But to be honest they (the Legendary DLC) are actually quite good for forging. Try Isolation some time, then get back to us... : )
lol I'm making a trench map pack that only uses the bottom of Construct and Iso and for the third I'm TRYING to not use foundry. On topic though the new maps are absolutely wonderful to forge on, It's just that people are raping Avalanche with Castles/Cargo ships etc...
i strongly disagrea i think that the new maps give poeple a great ideas for forging. the ghost town isnt great but its ok. blackout will be great for some slayer maps. avalanche is the best giving the things needed to do almost anything. foundry is "just a big empty room" and there is no theme but you can make almost anything in it
Yah I think I was just a little spoiled on foundry. But dude shock don't even start with isolation. That's not something you should joke about lol jk. But do any of you have a canvas or know of one for the out of Blackout. And yes, I want to see what an awesome interlocked map looks like on avalanche. One of you elites should make one.
I was kind of disappointed because after getting used to Foundrys nice smooth ground I had troubles. Now I'm getting the hang of it though!
I had some good ideas to put to the test on ghost town but friday april 18th with the update my xbox got the red ring of death but i hope i dont forget the idea before my xbox gets back...but the new maps make it challenging to a great map. that just means you have to be more creative.
The new maps are not really designed for Forging, however I have seen use of Avalanche to build maps floating over the edge of the cliff and using a little bit of the cliff. I hardly see any Ghost Town maps or ghost town itself. I don't think anyone has the balls to mess with Lockout I mean Blackout. I think that new and surprising forge methods will come out though.
Wtf? I love forgeing on the new maps I think they are better than foundry! Foundry was ugly and hard to look at the new maps are pretty!! And have great lighting. Avalanche is my fav so far me and my friends have been working on an epic map on it for a long time and all the ways you can change the map is amazing, also ghost town has alot of new items I like to use now to bad Its so small though, srsly I dont know why you wouldnt want to forge on them.
(not sure on exact quote) Stop lieing, if your map was so popular you would have posted it. Your most downloads on a posted map is about 1,000. That's not bad, but is way less than 9,000. Anyway, I'd have to say I AM a little disappointed, but I also agree that once you get used to the geometry some great maps could come out of the legendary pack. But just giving up because the ground isn't a freakin' square is just sad. (not talking directly to you, but to anyone who thinks like that.)
I did post it under my old account xOWNAGEx29 before the site changed but I had to make a new one because my brother got on and cussed some admins out while I was away dirt biking. But moonbounce2 says it was made by xMess U Up247x, that's my cousin we make all our maps togethor. That's why we have to same one's in our fileshare. If you would like me to we can get on (we use the same xbox) and he can tell you if you don't beleive me. And yes it has over 9,000 dl's look here http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=16823655. Point and case.
