Basically this is a thread to suggest new forge items for the next 3 maps. To start off... 1. A new version of a shield door but when you touch it it saps all shields and vehicles can drive through but get disabled temporarily. 2. Doors that can be opened/shut 3. Hinges that are free swinging like the front doors of a old style saloon. 4. Something like a merry-go-round that spins anything placed on it including players (great for mini games) 5. large disks for round areas, 100$ but freakin' huge! 6. Levers that control things such as turning portals on/off, lucking/unlocking doors, and controlling the spin thing. All of these things would greatly change game play and definitely cause a huge increase in good forgers and great maps. (And of course alot of previous maps could definitely use this things. edit: IF POSSIBLE
I wish there were open and closable doors. It would also be cool to have glass you can shoot and break.
love the glass but as for a door that you can shoot but not walk through im pretty sure that's what a fence wall is... ...I also thought of walls that you can walk and shoot through but not see through, that combined with fence walls would make interesting puzzles, infection, competitive and mini game maps, not race tho
If there is one item I would like to see in forge, it is the autoturret. I know it's possible, it probably wouldn't compute with the AI though. Anyvay, this belongs in forge discussion. Hence the name, forge. I propose a move to forge discussion.
The poll has eight unnecessary choices, by the way. Ladders would be cool...more un-drivable vehicles (such as the truck) would be cool for aesthetics, light posts, chairs, desks, shelves, racks, gurneys, trailers (for trucks), tables, tents, those green building things from the Halo 2 E3 trailer demo thing and from Turf, the list goes on. Most of the things I listed aren't even complicated like levers or switches.
Request thread move to forge discussion asap, yeah, this should be moved to forge discussion, but yeah ladders, conveyor belts (basically a bridge with constant low speed grav lift effect, no actual moving floor) would be great things to have, as for about the fence walls, i forgot about the specific weapons, and the 8 other options on the poll are just for fun, gawd, i mean obviously there is either an i like it, or don't like it, but the poll is just for fun as always. Auto turret that just has a side to side wave pattern or just straight would be useful, you could float it at random angles and make a turret-maze. The turrets in a side-to-side wave pattern so no auto targeting required. Or just straight forward but could float it at angles. LOL forgot about the select weapons for the fence wall
New and innovative forge tool: Knife. Use it to slice parts off of pieces and turn them into two new pieces. With that: any object is possible. As for actual pieces, I'd love to be able to use destroyable scenery like that in Security Zone on Firefight. It'd be amazing to have the bridges on hinges like on Turf. Those would open up a whole new world for jumping maps and mini-games. A trip wire and switch set would be awesome. It would work similar to a teleporter with different channels. When the trip wire node ( a beam of blue light, changeable size and length ) is touched, whatever switch that is on that channel can be activated. An example of a switch node could be Kill Beam, Open Door, Spawn [OBJECT], etc.
i had the idea for the spining objects the first time i was in forge and im glad somebody else thought of it to! i made a jumping game that uses spinning objects in a game engine called blender and i have to say it is really easy to make if you know what your doing and im not sure why bungie hasn't included it in forge.
hopefully this thread gets moved, and that it THRIVES and that can only happen if you KEEP POSTING... And the spinning objects alone would be freaking hilarious not to mention the possibilities for RvB.
Some things i would like to see in forge would be those covenant sniper towers where you lift up to the top. Also maybe a vehicle hangar/parking place, would look good for aesthetics in a map, also it might help. EDIT: Also maybe some weapon shelfs, like those little shelfs in the back room of Foundry.
lol a thruster would be cool, if u could put them on stuff and make it drivable. i rated YOU SUCK for the 'lulz'
I love the ideas but I don't think Bungie will be able to add stuff like that in the next 3 maps since they are so close to finishing.
Who cares. I bet they are going to make more remakes of maps a year or two from now, and then, will be the time for our ideas to shine >
They should be able to make a forge items pack that makes more items available for the maps everyone already has, 400 mp and it makes nearly every item available foe all maps (except for certain sandbox items) and add a few more. (off topic) P.S. cod waw map pack 3 yeah!
I had the same idea as Ape Man; DLC Forge Items. What I'd like to see includes (but is not limited too) Flamethrowers. Not the weapon, flames that shoot out until they hit a wall and stop, if you walk through it it does damage equivalent to a flamethrower. Gears Rope Moveable/Immovable checkable option. Traps Themes that change textures Energy Bridges With consoles (The Console is the important object, you set it to the same number as the interactive object) Prison Cells. Similar to Energy bridge/console thing. Uses Console. Different Console options. E.G. A console that is a panel on a wall, A console similar to in campaign that stands up, etc. Elevators - Console using Hinges Motors (Like Hinges and Gears, but have a force directing them) (Gears have a type of motor too) Water. You set the level, place it and it floods the area to a selected height. You select a certain amount as a width (in grid tiles) and water goes through any gaps that big or bigger. Interactive rope. You jump for it; grab on and physics makes you swing. Zipline. Mine Cart/Train tracks (Train = fast as mongoose, certain tiles have console switches, trains stop at designated points, you cannot control a train, you can fight inside a carriage, mine cart is as fast as a Scorpion tank) Mounted Missile pod. Mounted flame thrower Controllable crane (It has a set path, it creates a greenish flat area at the spot it is moveable around). RT goes down, LT goes up, RS controls movement, your camera is directed at the crane. RB = Grab, LB = Let go. Can Crush a scorpion tank, slow as an elephant, to crush an object (it will forcibly explode) you continue grabbing until it's too tight and too much pressure for the scorpion. Lava. Similar to water except instant kill. ODST Drop Shock Pod. You get in, and have varying levels of freedom to move dependant on height, it can store 2 weapons which forgers can put inside. RS moves it, however if you are closer to the ground you'll be able to move it less. RT = Deploy Parachute, deploy to late and you die. Deploy too soon and the parachutes snap. (The parachutes are the + things on the roof) You need to deploy 1/2 way between the sky bubble and ground. More breakable objects. Glass. Sniper Bullets/Particle Beams go straight through without destroying. Multiple shots from other weapons break the glass. EDIT: Just realised, with all of those things, we'll end up having Indiana Jones machinima. (More then one of them, Glass/Traps/FlameThrower/Zipline/Rope Swing/Mine Cart Tracks/Themes/Water/Lava/All the Console ones)
Except that if you have the DLC, and someone else doesn't, then they can't play it. Also, those ideas seem very...very far-fetched; very. very very
