A new idea for teleporters usage

Games Halo 5: Guardians

Okay, so we can do pretty neat things with teleporters in Halo right? Well, I think this idea would make it even better.

Wouldn’t it be amazing to set a teleporter in a map, that once entered would send you to a different map?

See it like this. You have a 2 way teleporter placed on Guardian for example. When you enter it you go to let’s say Sandbox! If this would be possible in Halo X1 you could use great parts of each maps to make yourself a great map!

I know, I know… “What about dem loading times man?”

Well, if you finished your map and you used let’s say 3 different maps to make one these maps would all load whilst in the lobby. It wouldn’t take long, especially since it is next gen.

I am not sure how to place the teleporters and connect them though… Maybe when you are in forge you can choose in the game to transport to a certain map and connect the teleporters in that way with their channels.

So… what do you think?

The reason I came up with this is because some maps in Halo Reach had awesome parts I could use for an infection game, but the map would be too tiny if I chose just one map. So now I hope we can combine maps in 1 map. :slight_smile:

That would basically require every map to be a single file.

A better solution would be a full-on map creator

I sort of did this in Reach.

  1. Make a small enclosed arena in forge world with the spawns and everything.

  2. Make a teleporter(Sender alpha) that doesn’t spawn until 1:30-2:00 minutes into the game.

  3. Place 1x1 blocks over all of the Spawns in the map. Set the block spawns to coordinate with the teleporter spawning. (So you stop spawning in the map when the teleporter appears.)

  4. Make a separate arena with spawns that don’t appear until the teleporter in the first arena appears. Place another teleporter(Receiver alpha) that also coordinates with the first teleporter (it spawns when the first spawns.)

  5. Place a Teleporter (Sender Bravo) that spawns 3:00-3:30 minutes into the game.

  6. Do step 3 to arena 2. (Coordinate block spawns with bravo teleporter spawns.)

  7. Make a third arena (with spawns & Bravo Receiver that coordinate with Bravo Sender teleporter).

  8. Repeat steps if you want more arenas.

So, kind of like the map “Gateway” from Unreal Tournament 3?

I would prefer this (Or a general idea for ANY map) with a gateway-style tele, big enough for a Wraith.
