Forge to bring back Midship or Lockout?

[Rayen]

I was thinking if there was a way to save one of your favorite H2 maps like Midship or Lockout from Halo 2 and bring it to Halo 3 using Forge.

I wouldn't mind playing Halo 3 on an old Halo 2 map like the great Lockout if MLG ever wanted to implement Forge in competitve gaming.

This is just a thought, tell me what you guys think?

I don't think that's how forge works. Can't you just take the existing maps and choose spawn points and weapon/vehicle spawns and times. Maybe put some objects in or something? I didn't think it was like a 'map creator.' Bungie have alredy said that there will be a Lockout remake though. I hope they will port Midship too, I think it would work well with the Halo 3 physics/feel

If it was only that easy... :neutral:

[Adreniline2k]

Lock Out already has a spiritual successor into Halo 3, same with Midship.

And Forge doesn't work that way, you can only add items and vehicles, move spawnpoints and such, add objects.

In all reality, you probably won't have to "remake" any maps. Not only because you can't but because they will probably already be there.

They will do the same thing they did with H1 maps and port the best H2 maps over to H3. Hopefully it will work out way better this time though.

Longest, Blood Gulch, Wizard, Hang'em High, Derelict, and Battle Creek.

All decent maps, not my favorites, but with the extreme change in play style in H2 and the weapons they really did not fit in too well. Then later with more BR starts Warlock and Beaver Creek started to be more played because they were smaller maps and fit in with the H2 maps. While other such as Tombstone and Coag are not played because they are simply too big and don't fit in with the weapons in H2.

With H3 they seem to have got more of a control over having long and short range fights, making it possible to have maps as big as Blood gulch and as small a midship without having trouble with the weapons.

So yhopefully with H3 we will actually see all of the best maps return, and some great new ones. Instead of it being cool to see an old map for a couple days, and then never wanting to play them again.

No Damnation? Fail/10

Anyway, for H3, Bungie'll probably pull out all the stops, even if it means releasing old maps through downloadable content.

awww what about Chill Out?... hell they could change the name easily to something like... "Chill out 2, bout fkin time"

If im not mistaken I think they have made a remake of Lockout in halo 3 called gaurdian (or some other one I cant remember.)

But still It would be nice to have total control of map editing but its bound to be limited.

I was just talking about the ones they brought back for H2.

If they bring back maps again, I would want dammy and chill out for sure. Wouldn't mind seeing battle creek come back again to. I loved h1 derelict, but hated h2. Hang em high would be great again if done well.

From h2 would love to see lockout and midship return. Sanctuary would be really fun to have back as well.

Prisoner should be ported to Halo 3 / should've been ported to Halo 2.

I have a funny feeling just about every map that you want from previous haloes will make it either on the disc, or on the marketplace.

I SMELL A MAP PACK!!!

Yep. Prisoner was probably the one H1 map most suited for H2. Albeit, it was a pistol-dominated map, but it wasn't as large scale as HH/Tombstone to the point where host would dominate all game. IMO, the three best maps (gameplay wise) Bungie could've brought back were Prisoner, Chill Out (maybe with less shottys), and Damnation.

[the HELLBOUND 1]

im hoping they take Midship cause Midship > Lockout IMO

[OMG itz LuNaTiC]

I would like both maps please

[WickedJester_12]

Who cares take'm both!

[Pulser]

Hopefully (probably) both Midship and Lockout, or at least re-makes of them (don't change too much, please Bungie!) will be included in Halo 3.

[Fundament4l]

There's a map named "Guardian" which is supposed to be really similar to Lockout in H3, but it's a forest setting; and hopefully, Bungie will bring back the real Midship, not a reincarnation.
And sadly, Forge can't create new maps, only move and add stuff on existing maps.

I think the portals in H2 would screw up Chill Out. But Damnation would also be great.

[Rebmob]

Lockout!!! Thatd be great. I wish they would bring back dammie, i wanted them to for the new H2 maps but they ruined hang em high instead. Midship would be nice to for all those FFA's. :P

[fcorange5]

bring back both and sanctuary!!!!

[Rebmob]

bring back both and sanctuary!!!!

Screw sanct...

[Rebmob]

bring back both and sanctuary!!!!

Screw sanct...

[MJDieSeL]

Hopefully bungie was more creative with their multiplayer maps for h3 and are not trying to copy everything they did in h1 and h2. lLockout/middy are good, but something completely new would be nice! (preferably the same size though)

Prisoner should be ported to Halo 3 / should've been ported to Halo 2.

h2 prisoner? I don't think that would run very good

[Hitzel_89]

Why not? It's small so the BR works there. There may need to be more pathways upwards though, since team BRing people down low may make it too hard to take the top.

I think it would be hell, and if it kept over shield/rocket whatever team had that would straight own, I would love to play it though

top would dominate even harder with brs instead of pistols.

also sanc is the most balanced map it needs to be brought back.

and i think ppl have tyhe wrong idea with forge. its a map editor not creator

[Hitzel_89]

It's true that the top would dominate. That's why there needs to be more ways to get up there that are protected from people up top. Rocks might need to be taken out aswell.

To be honest, I just want my favorite map to be ported =P

[iProxity]

on tpc===middy

[Rayen]

Anyway, I still would like to play on midship with Halo 3 gameplay.

The Powerdrainer rolling down pink...

....Run!!

[TWISTED-BULLET]

Forge is a map editor, it's not a map creator.

[boo0m]

Forge will still be very useful to MLG. I hope to see MLG take and use Forge to the fullest extent.

I am interested in seing the new maos before I run back to the old
