Oh really? Did I ever say once that I was 100% right? No. Not /once/.

But so far, majority of what I've said was right. And where did I get most of my info? Oh, I don't know. Numerous interviews with Bungie that you can find all over the internet?

Let's not turn this into another b.s. argument. Let's just drop it and pay attention to the more important part; the screenshots.

Not really :V

You still cant create custom tags.

Yea, Im not agreeing with advancebo here since he completely neglected to actually pay attention to what you wrote before being a smartass. But no, this is not anywhere near even. You still can't texture, change map gemometry, and so on.

Admittedly, you're right, but, even so; for a console game, Halo 3 isn't very far behind. Sandbox was a lot more than we had expected it to be...

Though it's still no Halo CE, unless they release a fully moddable version of Halo 3 for the PC, it's going to be the best we get; because the physics engine can do a lot more than CE can.

Thus, I say, it's on par; even if not in the same sense.

We haven't even gotten our hands on it....

... We need to?

I didn't know that. I mean, we've used Forge before, so we know what it's capable of. We've screenshots showing the three different levels of the map. Isn't that all we need to know?

Surely it can't be any different than what we've already seen via pictures & videos.

I meant it might be less than we expected......

I'd just like to say that for all the people who keep trying to compare halo CE and halo 3 forge, you should reaaally just stop. Like now. Please.
I play and use both, and hey, lookit that, I'm not arguing with myself like a couple of baboons. Surprise!
It's because the two games are ENTIRELY in different leagues. One game is for the console, and the other for the PC. The Console tries to appeal to the average idiot, and has a larger fanbase and is played by more people so anything made in forge is simpler, and spreads faster. In Halo CE, customization skyrockets and everything is just LOADS of fun cause you can see what you can do and do everything you could ever want. Sure, if Bungie was smart they'd release a H3EK or something and sell it for obscene amount of money, and include all the equipment and directions needed to mod your fancy new X360 and Halo 3.
But they kind of aren't, or maybe they have a REASON for that. I don't know. The point is that there's pluses to both games, and no matter whatcha do, ones going to be better than the other in some aspect, until Bungie goes 'Eh, who cares if they edit our game. Go for it!'

Also: Sandbox! Woooo!
Pwnsauce!

^What?

I could of sworn that the PC has the most gamers and the most games made...

^lol, pwnz.

i wasn't pwnz'in him, i was trying to correct him.

However you did end up pwning him...

in your view it would be, not mine.

lol..obviously the PC machine has more users, but halo custom edition does NOT have more players than Halo 3. Simple as that, and it was just a misunderstanding. You are forgiven.

i didn't ask for forgiveness...

-_-

..if any of what you said made any sense to me, I'd probably say something in rebuttal, but I really have no idea. That post was just made of illogicalness.
I made up a word just for your post; congratulations.
I mean; why put the number 1 if there was only 1?
What's the point?
And what is a House of Commons?
Everyone knows Canada is just a myth. >>

Ooohh! You're a mythical Canadian! -le gasp-

>>
<<
No but really, I guess I do sorta understand what you're saying, but even a 'debate' doesn't serve a purpose. I like meself a good debate, but when it's filled with stupidity and foolishless, not so much.

Yeah cuz I'm Canadian. I don't appreciate it.

And I will be downloading the Mythic Map pack as soon as it comes out. :)

Zetal, you're the only one who thinks Canada is a myth. Canada is the country right above mine...
Well, anyone else live by a town? Can't wait for sandbox!!

Canada is a myth.


Also; how is that an offensive joke? That's maybe as offensive as telling Ryan Stiles that his shoes are loud.

I mean sheesh; I'm from the /south/. I refuse to acknowledge it, I have more of a midwest accent than a southern accent, and I'm a city person, I /hate/ the concept of living in the countryside. But even I crack up at southern jokes...


... I wish I lived in Sandbox though. :3 Even though it's just a myth. <-- win

Will you people STOP talking about Mythical places and START talking about Mythical Maps?

Point taken!
I can't wait for Sandbox, because I have so many forge ideas that I had the skill to make, but foundry just couldn't allow it.

I hope with sandbox, I'll actually be able to finish some of my maps.

Have you ever made undergroundish tunnels on Foundry? I have. Have you ever built a building with exploding fusion coils around it? I have. Have you ever made a scarab? I have. Have you ever made the perfect sniping platform? I have.

All in Foundry.

Yea. Fun times...That zombie map was pretty cool, with the helicopter.

...Oo That's hard?

..Why? Did it work? OMIGOSH! WORKING SCARAABBSSSZZz

..Again, good for you? What's the point?

His point is that you can do this stuff in foundry. You yourself have done it before. So what can't you do in Foundry?

Deathbarriers.
=)

Too lazy to give the rest of the examples, so I'ma go take a nap now.

Or you can't think of them :P

Okay. Create a vehicular assault map, that actually takes more than 3 seconds to other side of the map.

Create a map that you can /fall off of/ [and not as in a few feet to the ground, and unable to get back up to the map itself; literally, fall off and die].



All Sandbox is, is a combination of many things we've wanted. A floating map template, like Guardian and Blackout; an underground box template, like Foundry; and a large open template, somewhat like Sandtrap. Just all in one map, so you can combine them via teleports.

If you don't like it, here's a question: Why are you posting in a topic ABOUT Sandbox?

/thread

I made these all myself. I added weapons to them, and made my own version of everything.

MF Boom, as soon as you can create a halo 3 map, let me know. kk?

Huh; don't bother trying to drag me into an argument like the rest. Your trolling doesn't work on me. No one here can "make" a Halo 3 map, you can only edit one in Forge.

Drop the argument, you two. It's getting ridiculous. Neither of you are getting anywhere, because one of you apparently has to be the better person.

By "one of you", I'm saying whoever keeps the argument going, is only trying to be "better" than the other. Just end it already, it's immature.

One, it is just me. Two, I am saying that there really is a lot to do in Foundry. Foundry is the only map I forge on because I can't stop coming up with ideas for it.

Oh, I agree, there really is a lot you can do in Foundry. I just agree with others when Sandbox really does take it to the next level.

Foundry, you're limited to a certain size, and certain capabilities. Sandbox added in three levels, so you're less limited in that aspect. You won't use up all your boxes & fence boxes, etc, just to make Foundry into a box without the open bases in the way; you already have the preset box in The Crypt... You can now make a floating level in the Sky Bubble, which is a pretty new addition to Forge; the likes of which none of us have gotten to do before, especially not this easily...

Foundry is still a wonderful level. I don't expect Sandbox to replace it... But it is the next-gen Forge map, in my eyes.

And, while I don't doubt your creativity with Foundry; I believe you'll have even more ideas for Sandbox, and I, for one, look forward to seeing what all people can come up with for that map...

Zetal is a total douche.
