Admiral Ackbar

The only problem I see with that is a map that is big enough and empty enough for that. Most maps are pretty hilly. Ragnarok my work.

This might stir up the hornet's nest. I'm not trying to do that. It's just an observation I've made while playing Halo. It seems like new snipers tend to stay stationary. As your skill progresses the snipers become mobile. I know when the Halo games come out, I'll start sniping staying stationary. Especially on maps I'm not too familiar with. However as you become more familiar with the maps and the game in general you start to move around more. That's just an observation I've had.

What are forging? I'm pretty good. But it really depends on the type of map.

Do you use active camo while sniping? or just for moving from spot to spot?

Oh. So instead of a loadout you just have the option of Banshee or Mantis? They'd have to make it so you couldn't leave the vehicles. Otherwise you'd just have people jumping out, and hijacking other peoples vehicles. Which generally isn't a bad thing. But if you're trying to make a map that is all Banshee and Mantis, it would have to be addressed. Also that map would be a great starting map. Just clear the map of all existing spawns and what now. Create your own spawns. And only put Banshees and Mantis' on the map. Beware though, in the Forge you can only have so many of each type of vehicle on the map.

I think for matchmaking it should be the same.

Alright. I just had a stroke of what I think maybe brilliance, or just a stroke of idiocy. I'm not sure yet. That's why before I start forging the map and working out the kinks I figured I'd post it on here for your thoughts and opinions. Here's my thought. It was based off of Transformers. I know, it's nerdy, but whatever haha. I want to create a map and game type that would be like humans vs Transformers. One team would be the Transformers, obviously the Decipticons because the humans are killing them. Anyway the Decipticons would have the Mantis. The other team would have to sneak around on the ground. Maybe with the Active Camo perk. And try to destroy the the Decipticons. I'm not sure how that would work. Or if it's even possible. Maybe the "Human" team would have Warthogs to help battle the Mantis. I would end up Forging a map to look like a city. Maybe take the Griffball court and add some buildings. Some streets. If I do that I won't use Active Camo. The humans will have to sneak from building to building using crouch and what not. What are you thoughts and opinions. Sorry the post was scatterbrained. I'm really excited about the idea and want to have help figuring out the kinks to the game. I'll start working on the Forge map tonight, and keep you updated!

People would eventually be like "Forget this. I'm just going to sneak up on the guy and plant a sticky"

I'm still fairly new on here too. But I don't care about the direction of my threads. As long as it's somewhat on the topic of sounds. I mean don't go rambling about the Forge. That's a little too off topic. haha. To me the music was just. It seemed to interfere with the game at times. Clash with the dialogue. And at the points in the game when there was very little action the music would go from really quiet to pretty darn loud.

It just isn't a big deal for me to get overkills. To me 4 kills in a row is 4 kills in a row. I don't really care about getting the overkill medal for doing it fast. It's not like getting more overkills will make your Spartan stronger than the person who doesn't get an overkill. I'll admit I've seen more multi-kill medals in this Halo than any other. It just doesn't really bother me.

I am new here. And you always seemed pretty cool. I'm sure you'll be missed by many

I agree about the random weapon drops and the instant respawns.

I don't think that would work for a playlist in matchmaking. It would get pretty old pretty fast. You could always make a custom map and gametype to play with your friends. No doubt it would be fun for a little bit. But ultimately I think people would get bored and just start to blowup teammates vehicles. Especially if someone wanted a Mantis and got stuck with a Banshee. You should Forge a map like that. See how it works. I could be terribly wrong.

Meh. I personally think that any pre-order armor should have stayed exclusive. I know people that would go from store to store to find the coolest pre-order special. And now everyone has it. I think everything should be exclusive including the FOTUS. But I'm one of those people who don't really care about the armor.

I don't think it's that big a deal. An extra half second isn't that much time. I know there are a lot more multi-kill medals, but is that really a bad thing? It's just a medal, it doesn't actually help you in any way. Except for the commendations which only unlock the armor. Which to me, isn't that big of deal.

I've seen that all over the place. But I have no clue what it is.

Some of them are a little backwards. A lot of the daily challenges can be pretty hard to do, and you don't get a lot of XP for it. I'd say half the time they are backwards, the other half they seem pretty accurate and doable.

If that works for you go for it! Have you ever been unable to snipe on a map because everyone knows your sniping spots?

I never said it was actually a difficult play through. And as far as I know it's the achievement only. But you don't have to beat them on legendary to get the achievement. Do you? You can beat them on any difficulty. There are some other achievements that require you to do things on Heroic or harder.

Agreed. The music isn't the best. I wish there was a way to turn it down in settings. And it can be discussed in this thread. Music is sound..

Loving the name. Just had to say that. And.. you're hilarious. I'm pretty sure that's already an option xD

I couldn't agree more. Some maps you'll have to stationary and others you have to be mobile. Depends on the map, and your team.

Sorry I didn't get on until just now. When you're ready to try it out. Let me know. I have a game variation you might like. It's called king of hog or King of the Goose. My friend made it. It's a variation of king of the hill but the vehicle is the hill. The vehicle can't be destroyed. And if you're in the vehicle you get overshields. Everyone else has either a Hammer, Rocket Launches, or sticky detonator. It's a lot of fun.

Meh. Not really. The Wraith is also pretty useless in Multiplayer. It's only on Vortex. And never lasts long.

Ah. Well yes. I agree with you.
