Firefight mixed with some forge?

Community General Discussion

In halo reach there was much customization with enemy spawns, shield and weapons. kinda like custom games.

In halo: CEA you have ODST squads fighting with you! sweet!

however firefight still felt a bit limited.

How about we mix forge and firefight? So in firefight you can place some weapons here and there and spawns for enemies and allies! I imagine it would have to be small in scale but I reckon its possible!

Maybe you could edit firefight maps? place a wall here, a turret there. Not on forge words scale, much too difficult for the devs, but an editor for firefight would be great!

Also larger battles in firefight with Scorpion tanks would be appreciated.

I’m not sure it would be possible, however I would highly welcome it.

No one wants this? shame it could have brought custom games back.

Also the ablity to take out the ammo boxes and put in a few spare guns and custome load outs for online(for the cr course). these maps r good 4 campaign but lack nessecity for us to go to certian places, all we need to do is sit next to the everything ammo box and kill the single file hordes of covy

id like the idea of a halo 3 style forge editor for firefight maps(BTW who thinks firefight maps should be available in normal multiplayer/custom games?)

That would be awesome, I like what 343i has done with the new firefight map and I would like to see even more improvement in the next firefight maps they will be creating.

I think the problem is that the paths enemies take have to be programmed to match the map, so if you edit a map it could mess things up big time. Just guessing, mind you, but I just don’t think the AI is smart enough to deal with customized maps.

Well a step forward would be weapon placement, deciding where longsword equipment drops land and weapon placement. Maybe go zombies and buy weapons and vehicles? Its very -Yoink!- zombies and Horde 3.0 but it would make firefight much more interesting.

This post is overstated and un-needed. the AIs have tracking paths to follow. inserting object will mess them up. Also, you have all the tools you need. you don’t need 5 scorpions and a banshee in firefight or anything really. Just play arcade if you want to tear it up. If you want forge in FF you might as well have forge in campaign. “Let me just put this bridge over the map here”

I think this idea in my head and see a killball under every dropship.

I’d quite like this, though I’d prefer being able to forge complete firefight maps from scratch.

I like your idea but this requires hudge amouts of coding and sometimes you wil get loopholes maybye it might be possible but the editing will be very time consuming.

that would be sweet
they would have to make weapons and ammo limited so u couldnt have god weapons on gruntapocalyse
