    I know I'm really grasping here, but any chance we can get a video fly through of sandbox?

    I already have a floating map on the boards that I'm going to make solo, but I wouldn't mind tag-teaming a ground floor map with la Muskrata either. I just have to wean him off of symmetry and WoW. Methinks this year's spring LAN is going to be quite awesome with all the maps we'll have made for it. Much better than the Winter '07 one a week after Foundry and Muskrat's broken spawn tunnels. XD

    So how many maps are going to be made? Is this the way we're going to work it?
    Coforge ???: weaselJOE + Felipe
    Coforge DefaultLevel: Debo + Muskrat
    Solo SkyBubble: Debo
    Solo ???: weaselJOE
    Solo???: Felipe

    Personally I think five maps would make for EXCELLENT annual material.

    Back on-topic, I'm definitely digging the abundance of large objects. I've always wanted to be able to create megalithic structures on floating maps, as lack of objects for effective Line of Sight blocking is what killed floating maps on Blackout.

    What is the purpose of the Golf club, the cup, and the golf ball? LULZ!

    We have 4 kill balls! WOOT!

    The item limit seems to have doubled since other maps... and there appears to be a lot of objects... I thinks we have to much! Hehehe...

    A new vehicle to! Things just keep getting better and better!

    I also want to know, is there a visible difference between the two types of hornets?

    I would support this idea. Many have been made and they have for the most part been locked because they "Are supposed" to be posted in sandbox discussion. However as to avoid crowding in this thread I would suggest sticking a seperate one all for map ideas and not discussing the forge possibilities. You could just go ahead abd make it but i suggest talking to a staff beforehand.

    Also I am going to make a sandbox guide for dummies when sandbox comes out. How does anybody else feel towards this?

    I think we only get 2 death balls. Maybe I missed something saying we get more, but I don't think so.

    That sounds good. With Felipe and I coforging, there's nothing we can't accomplish, and plus, teaming with Felipe would give me a chance to learn how to geomerge and such.

    In the update urk said that we now have 2 PAIRS of 2 killballs. not sure what this means but I assume it is just 4 killballs. But why not just say 4 killballs. It is quicker and makes more sense. Does nybody sense something amiss.

    Don't down me Sarge... you know what I meant... the full on crumbled wall enclosed complete confusion of the labyrinth of mythology. Dynamo played like that but did not have the space or the objects to pull it off... now I can. So fine.. I am building an Advanced Dynamo... better?

    As for ideas and "dibs" go ahead and post here: http://www.forgehub.com/forum/halo-...icial-official-sandbox-ideas-dibs-thread.html

    This place is getting hard to read stuff... make sure you follow the rules...

    Nope, they said 4 kill balls. They even corrected themselves in the post when they accidently said 2. How large do you think the Golf Club, Cup, and Golf Ball will be guys?

    I'm guessing the cup and golf ball will be big-ish and the club will be like a regular club.

    Maps are gonna take alot longer to make now, which i think is good thing i think. Theres so much more that will be possible and many more original ideas that can be produced. The mai problem is im gonna find it hard gauging how many objects i will need for a project. I could estimate pretty well on avalanche, but when i do a remake of something i.e. the pilar of autunm i may find that i havent got anywhere near enough objects.
    Im gonna play around for a bit at first just to gauge how far the objects can go.

    They said killballs come in pairs... does this mean that one "killball" would be a set of two? maybe im just overanalyzing. but still, the fact that there is more killballs is amazing!

    When they say 2 PAIRS of killballs it sounds weird. Because bungie could have made more sense, AND typed faster by saying 4 killballs it seems almost deliberate. What would happen if killballs came in pairs and not individual balls.

    Just speculating. And thanks for the thread ANZ FTW!!!!

    Are you suggesting that Urk was trying to make a two balls joke? Are you nuts?! He'd get sacked!
