So.... I was just messing around on a map.... until I snapped.... and made... working drop pods! they are amazing! I started working out MP map designs, ideas, weapons... but then... my mind went into question ::: who would play?


For a few reasons...

* a map made by BlueGrunt, the lire of the Halomaps community
* I cant upload pictures/videos and a lot of people have a policy "no pics or it didn't happen"
* not many people play Custom Edition


so... I decided... how about I use the drop pods for a SP map? That would not get ride of problems 1 @ 2, but number 3....

The point is, would it be better for SP or MP?

SP: As an ODST, you race to your pod...

MP: Drop from h*ll into combat

would they sync?

Pics or it didn't happen.

Just kidding. What drop pod does it look like? The halo 2 one, or the Halo 3 ODST one? And how do they work? Does the covering explode off like it is in the games and books, or do u just exit? Does it impact the ground and stick in there, like it should, or does it roll over like those ones on Sanctuary Final?

Personally I'll play any SP that looks somewhat promising, mostly just out of curiosity.
Don't ever touch MP maps though but that's just me.

It should sync, assuming the drop pod is a vehicle tag.

As much as I dont wanna be a dbag, pics or it didnt happen.

Remember your promiesd Reach Covenant which you never actually had?
And why cant you post pics?
You have internet, don't you.

You could always ask someone like me to post pics for you to satisfy the "pics or it didn't happen" people. ;)

My comp sucks. Nuff saids. Now about the pods... the stay in the ground like ODST, and they make a LOT of ditt and dust. The door blows off, and there are enemies fighting other ODSTs.(SP)

If it will be MP, it will be just like I said, except for the Covenant/ ODSTs fighting

Your computer has nothing to do with it.
If you can make tags fr Halo, you can upload images.

^ I have to agree with him. Can you just use the printscreen/paint method?

Or snipping tool if you're windows 7.

ACK! I've been working on a city map. it has kind of a reach "New Alexandria" feel to it, and by that i mean it's a large ,damaged, city with a dark sky, you play as an odst and the entire time i have been imagining what it would be like if you entered in a drop pod, maybe a 10 second fall and then you land and the door blows off. what i was trying to figure out was. how would i make it so the drop pods would automatically load you in, and if someone quit then make them respawn and wait for the next player to join. I really wish i could see this, and then i could upload picture. not trying to pry, just to help prove you are telling the truth...And having those tags would make my map have an original thing in it, i would credit of course.

Meh I could send you the tags.

Well, send it to somebody you can trust. I'm sure TM could use it if what you say is true...*strokes goatee*

And then i could make an x-fire vid and post it here. And protect the map when i release it, If you let me leave them in when i release that is.

hmm, well, I have been gone awhile, ya know? My laptop broke down. I got a new PC today. I got some of my data back; but not a lot... sigh....

Windows 7?

I will play not matter what(except if it has no AI what so ever).

So did you get the hell jumpers back, or did you loose them?

sorry that Ive been gone so long. Sadly, no.

You probably also lost the non existing Halo Reach grunts, right?

never made those.

Oh, sadness :/

Did you not realize that was a troll attempt?

As people do not play MP that much now , make it a SP or an AI based map.


I've always wanted someone to add AIs into Sauctary_Final .....


Would you be that guy?
