Okay, I was thinking of a new cool matchmaking idea. It involves Forge so if you you're not interested you can stop reading. My idea involves like a Forge type Matchmaking Game. Each player would spawn in a diverse map (Sandox, Foundry) and they would get a certain time limit to build a base, fort you know stuff like that. Well Of course there would be limits to what and how many objects they can use. During that period they build their base and after the time limit is done a new round starts. They would then have to duke it out and the you could do all sorts of things, even if that means jacking a players base. I thought that this would be a cool idea because there are alot of Forge enthusiasts in this community and maybe they wan't to show what they got. I know this Idea's a little rough and it has a reallllly low chance of being used in Matchmaking (cause of glitches, and the fact that you have to switch from forge to slayer). But i thought it would be a cool idea. It's more likley to be used in Custom games but you never know. Thanks for reading P.S I have posted this on Bungie net and it's me. I just thought I would get alot more enthusiastic results coming from this community. This topic seems like It could have already posted up here but you never know. I would really like to hear some of your thoughts.
I did something a little bit like this, me and a friend had 15 minutes to build the best sniper base on the sandbox sky bubble, and it was probably the most fun I ever had in forge. I completely agree with this idea.
Actually sounds like a pretty cool idea. Nothing funner than seeing someone running along and then popping into forge mode and busting out a giant block to drop on their head. But nah, seriously- what you described sounds pretty cool. I enter 24 hour film festivals every now and again- and it's a similar premise. I'd sure enter that hopper to try it out.
At first I didn't get what you were trying to say. But I get it now. It's a pretty cool idea. I think it would only be fun on Avalanche, Sandbox and Foundry. If you use the other maps you'd just be making spots to camp. I'll have to do this with a friend later. But as for being in matchmaking, impossible. People would find glitches, there would be lag, people would start driving crates around (fun), etc.
It sounds like the idea of a public map rotation idea, mixed in with Halo which sounds super fun Of course there would have to be limitations on a lot of things. You wouldn't be able to spawn 2 Scorpians at the base and you also couldn't make it have little (or only you know about) to no entrance to the base, it would be a complete snipe fest on his behalf, but Safturento's plan is pretty good too, thats what I do with my brother allot.
Maybe not MM, because there's a lot of things matchmkaing wouldn't be able to do. However, I often do this offline with friends, and it can be extremely fun. I would recommend playing it.
That stuff is better left to customs if you ask me. You need the honor rule to play those games. You can't have the honer rule in matchmaking.
