    I would like to call dibs on a Halo 1 map that has the two floating ships it will made in sky bubble with the exception of no ladders and minor design changes
    (this pretty pointless since if someone doesnt see this thread then they have obligation to any of these dibbs its still fun to share ideas)

    I call dibs on testing the new boarding action and the starwars space battles!

    Ummm... I call dibs on remaking any Red Faction 2 map, too. And I really want to make a big ass tower or maybe two medium sized ones.
    Oooh, and a narrows remake with more space. And less areas to camp on it too.

    I am really looking forward to seeing all of your guys' ideas put into action, they sound really good!

    I call Dibs on the First Remake of Times Square!

    Naw serously, i think I'll be making a 2 section building w/helipad, street inbetween, Bridges for what they're made for (to connect the two buildings, duh) and snipers in select rooms.

    Also Earliest version of Heaven and Hell!! CALL IT!!!





    EDIT: im not sure, but i think this thread spawned from my calling dips on the first minigame on sandbox idea. Amirite, AZN?

    I hope you all realize that "calling dibs" does nothing but show off your ideas and ironically opening them up for people to steal.

    so if I were to make a map based off of one of AZN's ideas, he wouldn't be able to do anything but call "shenanigans" since taking an idea, although distasteful, is not against the rules nor is it provable.

    I agree. If anything, this thread will become a nuisance. Say if I made a map, and it resembles someones "dibbed" idea here? Well then I would have to put up with the people bitching that I stole their idea, when in reality I just made my own that I thought of. So what if people make the same idea map, in the end one is going to be the better of the 2 (or 3, or more) and that is the only thing that matters, the execution.

    infection map
    20 second respawn
    no top level except for the attacker's (aka zombies) starting point. Zombies respawn on one end of the map. The other end is a fortress.

    Because the zombies start at the top level with nothing on it they instantly fall to their deaths. They respawn on the ground 20 seconds later. The humans have a little over 20 seconds to prepare for the zombie onslaught. They use this time to stockpile weapons, grab turrets, coordinate strategy etc...

    humans have plasma pistol starts.

    All the zombie killing weapons (shotguns, rocket launchers, etc) are outside the base, The humans have to pick and choose what weapons they want to bring inside. 4 Turrets will also be outside the base facing towards the base. That way in order to use them they have to be removed from there stand. No weapon respawns. The base will look like a military bunker. A few walls which will spawn 30 seconds into the game will act as time locked doors. If you're not inside by the time the doors shut, you are pretty much screwed. Zombies will have super low gravity and be able to jump over the base walls. This is the first map I will be making on Sandbox. I would really like to see someone actually skilled in forge make this, but I suppose I will just have to.

    I think the real purpose of this thread should be to bounce ideas off each other. Dibs can just be a way to say that you thought of this, and since you wrote it on the internet, you are implying that you are ok with others using your idea.

    I would love people to use my zombie bunker idea, and I have no doubt that while my map will be cool, someone else will make something similar and it will be frickin awesome. I'll just be glad that someone liked the idea in the first place enough to make their own.

    Reserved for when I think of some cool-ass ****.

    Also, there is a Sandbox discussion thread in the Halo forum. This may get locked.

    Dibs on making two very large towers, winding stairs to the top, and a bridge linking one to the other going along the bottom. The flags will be located on the tops of each tower. Thinking of making some parts of the tower out of movable objects to provide for portions of it exploding. There may be more to it, but like some other floating stuctures just for Aesthetics.

    I just thought of this like 2 seconds ago and probably won't make it... I was thinking more on the lines of an infection map, but once I load up Sandbox I'm kinda just going to make it. Not thinking of how it's going to look. It will definitely be similar to Manifest, but not close enough to the point you will go "You stole this idea from Manifest!"
