Does anyone know exactly what is going on in Amsterdam? I know Bungie wouldn't say anything, but has anyone leaked what it is?
Could create lots of traps so on top of a pile of fusion cores a weapons/equipment cache. Just have to hope no one sees you go for it. Same could apply for certain vehicles if possible.
Guessing they'd have an item limit similar to what Crackdown did? So eventually the first fusion cores would get replaced by the most recent one you added. Wonder how many you could cram in at one time. Might damper some of your maze o' boom plans.

I'm just imagining your Forge levels to be exactly like those old Crash levels with exploding boxes and shit.

Man, whoever made that cutscene in Halo 2 where MC sends back Cairo's bomb should be shot. Apparantly that thing he blew up is supposed to be like fifty gabazillion million miles long or something? The same kind of ship Regret is cruisin around in and torched Mombosa with. The cutscene does squat to indicate such and makes it seem like he just blew up one of the other fifty ships that are seen landing on earth.

Huh. What do you mean? The ship that blasted New Mombasa was the same ship that MC blew up.Son of Godzilla said:

My forgery...
I had a gametype in Halo 2 called "Concourse Gray" where we would designate a "track" and race four Warthogs across maps like Coagulation, Headlong and Burial Mounds. I think I'll make one on Sandtrap with crates and barricades and hopefully be able to square off 6-8 Choppers when it's all said and done.
I've got a few other ideas, but I really have to see the feature fleshed out a bit more before I know they will perform well.

OMG. Informal Halo 3 Street Racing. Add in Replay and holy shit. Bye bye Forza 2.
:lol
Add a generous sprinkle of fusion cores to the corners - to discourage sloppy cornering skills - and it will be perfect. The occasional barrier of crates for going off-course wouldn't hurt.Mr Vociferous said:
Voc, some of his crew and myself had some great Mongoose races in High Grounds. It works surprisingly well.BenjaminBirdie said:

No, it was the same class of ship. My complaint is that the size is completely unshown, makes it seem a really insignificant accomplishment.

I wonder if you can create turret emplacements. If so, that would make the gametype a whole lot more interesting.
Yeah, those High Ground races were really fun. The Mongoose is a great vehicle and fun to drive around, but I wonder how much of a race we would have ourselves setting the vehicle back on its four wheels. I seemed to do that a lot with the 'Goose.

Dont know if this has been posted, but if you go to http://cde.cerosmedia.com/1H46a85baa57911012.cde there is a free online sample of the new FHM (UK) and it has a 2 page article on Halo 3. The link is taken from the offical FHM site, so i dont think its breaking any rules ( http://www.fhm.com/Site/customPage/DefaultPlain.aspx?ID=16347#preview )

Eight Mongooses with passengers that hold plasma pistols. This would be interesting on some of the small maps, like maybe Snowbound...urk said:

If only overcharged plasma pistol shots tracked like they did in Halo 2, then you'd have something...Mr Vociferous said:

"Jetlagged and bleary-eyed, FHM has spent the entire day sitting goggle-eyed in front of a flat screen. Outside is a beautiful lake, surrounded by the picturesque town of Kirkland, just a spit from Seattle. But we dont care. Because were sat in the world-famous Bungie studios, after Microsoft secretly jetted us over to the West Coast. And were now about to become the first magazine/website/anything in the entire world to pick up a controller (with trembling hands) and blast through Halo 3 single player.
Predictably, the notoriously paranoid developer hasnt surprised us with any narrative twists its still monosyllabic Master Chief smacking down those devious Covenant. Instead, FHMs been dropped straight into the action, squealing like a girl. Across two immense Saving Private Ryanstyle levels, more enemies dance in front of our eyes than ever before, with new weapons to tote, new vehicles to trash and the shiniest, peachiest visuals weve ever witnessed.
And its dripping with next-gen trickery, from eye-caressingly sharp graphics to anally impressive sound. For example, watch (and listen) as a single ejected bullet casing springs out and then keeps bouncing past your ears, depending on the surface it has dropped on.
Better still, the gameplays got even better. The levels we played ended with a ludicrous
boss battle against a 50ft Covenant Scarab, in a single dust-up that features more enemies
on screen than the entire first mission in Halo. And by God we know: weve battled it to
within an inch of its life.
Or is it the other way round? Ten hours later, were a sweaty pile of grinning goon on the floor. One of our thumbs may have come off. In short? This game is ridiculous. But we like it. A lot. And trust us: so will you."

Uh, yes.
Someone summon Frankie The Naysayer, these guys make Forge seem to have a couple extra layers of Godliness and I'll be pissed if I start anticipating this for no reason.
They make it seem like it's an editor proper, save the changes and upload to live.
"FORGE
A multiplayers dream. Slap any item weapons, respawn points,vehicles, anything anywhere in a multiplay level, set it up with rules you want, then save it to Xbox Live and play it with your mates. Or just play tank Jenga, for instance. Like we did."
"Many of Halo 3s secrets were leaked by developer Bungie via bizarre insect site lovebees.com"
