  1. Hey guys, my friends and I were fooling around in Forge Island and we discovered a secret area, If you go to the large island, We found that it's hollow. What we did is we dropped a mantis from the highest point of the map, and it would either have glitched legs or it would go through the ground. Pushing yourself in a grid does not work, it will just "respawn" you. If you get there, it looks like a cool lagoon and is totally forgeable inside! If you guys go to my fileshare (Gamertag: K2pwnz0r) I have the map saved with screenshots.

  2. Halo Universe

     

    -An idea of a MMORPG based on Halo 4, and similar gameplay to DC Universe Online-

     

    This game is full of options and pathways that help create your character.

    This also does not involve a campaign, but Master Chief can help you along the way.

     

    In the character creation menu, you have many options on what your spartan will be.

    For example, grenadier, recon, soldier, etc.

    As you progress, you gain much more abilities and will eventually get to use all the classes.

     

    You start off as a recruit (training/tutorial)

    This part is basically explaining how to move, shoot, complete objectives, etc.

    After this part, you become a spartan.

     

    The game's main central hub is in the UNSC infinity. This can let you go into PvP (War Games), and Missions (Spartan Ops/Ideal way to rank up)

     

    Missions

     

    In the missions, you will get your orders from Captain Sarah Palmer. Missions vary from your class type and your rank. For example, neutralizing an enemy territory may be simple at first, but progressively gets harder as you rank up. This means more enemies, tougher enemies, and more damage. There is no difficulty in this game, but from starting the game to becoming max rank can be like going from easy difficulty to legendary difficulty. Players might be interested in it if there are almost an endless amount of missions, even/especially if you are max rank. Solo missions will reset your last objective if you die. If you are on co-op, your partner(s) will have to advance without you until they either die or complete the mission. Co-op missions will only reset your last objective if all the members in the squad have died. Missions will work in a following mini-storyline, just like Spartan Op Episodes, built in 3-5 Missions. This keeps the repeditivety low and a new experience every mission. You cannot repeat a mission, after you have either completed it or cashed in the reward.

     

    PvP

     

    In pvp, many games can still be played. Slayer, Dominion, V.I.P, King of the Hill, Infection, etc.

    This allows you to access commendations, and better armor.

     

    Player

     

    Your player's actions, skills, and looks all determine on how you play, and what you want to be. You can join squads (partys), fireteams (guilds) or rough it out solo. Many other players will have quests that you have, so it will be easy to complete quests when you see a fellow spartan trying to complete it.

     

    Quarters

     

    Your spartan has his/her own quarters (accessed through Infinity's Central Hub). Every player has their own private quarters, which players can invite their friends in personally. If a player gets a game invite through the dashboard, they will start the game in the quarters of the person that invited them, rather than your own. Your quarters are very important to gameplay. If you played too much missions or PvP in a row, your spartan will begin to slow down, not sprint, and miss shots constantly. You will need to sleep in your quarters to fully restore your stamina (access bed in your quarters, screen goes black for 2 seconds, you will wake up ready to go). Players are also granted movement abilities from start. They will get to choose from Jetpack or Sprint. These two are apart from armor abilites. The disadvantage that these give is that you cannot have both.

     

    Armory

     

    In your quarters, you will be able to change your character's appearance. This is called the Armory. Body appearance, and armor are seperate selections you can make. Like in DCUO, if you have armor that looks terrible, but gives amazing stats, you can use your own armor style instead of being obligated to wear something awful. Different armor will give different stats. You can also fully remove armor and just walk around with the black under armor. (If you use this in missions and/or PvP, you will have no shields or stats, but still have your weapons. Friends in your own quarters will not be able to sleep or customize their armor. You can also customize your loadouts through here.

     

    Currency

     

    Gaining Currency (Spartan Points; SP) can be either from PvP or missions. PvP will give a balanced amount of points depending on how good you play, while missions give you points on how many objectives you complete, solo or co-op. SP will allow players to buy armor that they want (regardless if its for stats or looks) instead of having to wait to unlock it. However, to keep the balance, most armor will be very expensive, and are more quicker to unlock in PvP rather than with SP. (This, of course depends on how far and dedicated you are on getting that armor). If you unlock armor through PvP, you will not be able to buy it anymore, and vice versa. This is simply because you already have it.

    With SP, players can also gain ordinances. They can begin a PvP match or mission with better weapons or boosts. For example, you can buy an ordinance that lets you spawn with a overshield after every time you die, or be able to gain SP or XP faster than normal. This also depends on the quantity you buy. Each ordinance will last you 1 mission or game, with the option to activate it before the game starts.

     

    Commendations

     

    Players gain commendations just like Halo: Reach and Halo 4 by completing repeditive feats. After completing commendation stages and masteries, players can gain XP and SP depending on the commendation and stage.

     

    Enemies

     

    Enemies are very common in Halo, and become much more intimidating in your spartan's future. You will be able to jump around melee'ing grunts in the face for a while, but as you progress, you'll eventually find yourself pinned down by a bunch of covenant cruisers. Missions will also get harder even as max rank, forcing you to join a squad or fireteam. There will actually be more missions done as a max rank than a progressing spartan.

    In missions enemies will drop weapons that will allow you to keep in storage in your armory in your quarters.

     

    Ranking System

     

    Mainly following the ranking system in Halo 3, ranks will be from 1-50. Every rank has its own correspondant name, from Recruit to 5 Star General. Also, again like Halo 3, different gametypes in War Games will also be from 1-50, and will ultimately rank up your overall rank. Your overall rank will only be shown through mission menus, service records, and leaderboards.

     

    Gameplay

     

    The game will run fairly similar to DCUO, but with Halo inspired familiarites. The HUD (Heads Up Display) will show:

    -Shields (Top Center)

    -Grenade Count/Type (Top Left)

    -Ammo (Top Right)

    -Player (Center)

    -Scoreboard {PvP} (Right Center)

    -Chat Bar (Left Center

    -Skill/XP bar (Bottom)

     

    Skill/XP bar

     

    Depending on your specilization, your skill will vary from many things. The skill bar works just like DCUO. For example, a standard skill would be headshot. Headshot gives a 25% damage increase on any enemies except for vehicles and hunters. This also insta-kills grunts and crawlers with a percision weapon equipped.

     

    Controls

     

    Standard controls wil go on the Xbox as follows:

    A - Jump

    B - Action/Enter Vehicle

    X - Shoot

    Y - Switch Weapons

    RB - Enemy Lock

    LB - Armor ability

    RT - Right Half of skills

    LT - Left Half of skills

    RS - Camera movement

    LS - Player/Menu movement

    RS (push) - Crouch

    LS (push) - Movement ability

    Back - Game Leaderboard {PvP}

    Back (hold) - Chat

    Start - Player Menu (Standard)

    Dpad - Menu movement

    Controls can be changed completely to your own liking and play style. Preset controls are not included, but players can save their own Preset controls (for players who share accounts/xbox)

     

    Chat System

     

    The chat system is standard like most MMORPGs. Like DCUO, the game will have a text chat system. The controls for the Chat Bar goes as shows:

    A - Open Keypad

    B - Close Chat Bar

    X - Change Text Output

    Y - N/A

    RB - Change message input (chat/game/system)

    LB - Change message input (chat/game/system)

    RT - Change Voice input (game/squad/fireteam)

    LT - Change Voice input (game/squad/fireteam)

    RS - N/A

    LS - N/A

    RS (push) - Scroll text chat

    LS (push) - N/A

    Back - Close Chat bar

    Back (hold) - Open Chat bar

    Start - Player Menu (Standard)

    Dpad - N/A

    Xbox party chat will override chat from in game, dampening sound depending on the Xbox Player preferences. The Change Text Output will allow players to change who will be able see your chat. That system follows as below:

    Speak - Players can only see your chat if they are right next to you.

    Shout - Players can only see your chat if they are near you or in the same room as you. (Can see anyone shouting when you are in the Infinity, but not in your quarters)

    Squad - Players can only see your chat if they are in your squad. (works anywhere)

    Fireteam - Players can only see your chat if they are in your fireteam. (works anywhere)

    Message - Can only be accessed by typing: /m gamertag . Players can only see your chat if you message them (works anywhere). Messaging players also lets you keep messaging that same person even after closing the chat bar (as long as you dont change chat).

    The chat bar will only update and appear every time you follow these above. The chat bar also disappears after 15 seconds of inactivity.

     

    My Personal Opinion

     

    This actually took me days to imagine, but after completing it, it sounds amazing (to me, of course). I don't know if this is terrible, but I've always wanted a MMORPG on the Xbox. Ive played the Phantasy Star Universe Demo and I enjoyed it. It was pretty sad when the servers were shut down. I don't know if this will be good because I really wish it can get as much support as a normal Halo FPS. I know it's not the same as good ol' Halo, but I hope it can even be remotely better than Halo Wars. That RTS game was isolated for not being a FPS, but I thought it was actually fun. Its also have been said that it's the best console RTS. I know 343 will not make this game, but with the slimmest glimmer of hope, I can only dream. Please make this a reality!

    If there is any issues, comments or concerns about this topic, please don't hesitate to say so. If you think that 343 will resent me for having an idea, don't bother to comment. I know there's barely a millionth of a percent chance that this will happen, but please give me strength in numbers! Thanks for reading this whole topic.

  3. Hey guys, I don't know if this question has been answered by 343, or i'm just not paying attention, but hopefully someone can answer my question. Here it is:

     

    Will Halo 4 have fully customisable controls?

     

    I found this a big problem for games (for me). I play alot of Battlefield 3 so I think the IDEAL way to scope in is to press LT (Left Trigger). I know that if there are pre-made control sets then there's no way that 343 will put scoping in as LT. This is really convenient because in the past Halo games, If you tried to shoot someone from far away, you would need to scope in but if they shoot you first, you automatically back out of scoping. It's always a pain for my to press RS while aiming (I don't know why, I just CAN'T do it) and i'll occasionally die. Also, this would be really convenient since i just have to stick to one control scheme. This would be my setup:

    RT- Shoot (obviously)

    LT- ADS (Aim down sights)

    RB- Melee

    LB- Use Ability

    A- Jump (obviously)

    B- Grenade

    X- Reload

    Y- Switch Weapons (obviously)

    RS- Crouch

    LS- Sprint

    D-Pad Up- Action (Interact, Enter vehicle, etc)

    (If this is back from halo 3) D-pad Down- Speak

     

    I know LB is to use Grenades in BF3 but I needed it for the Armor ability. The Dpad or the buttons would either disable me from aiming or walking. Someone please abswer my question or if nobody has asked it yet, please find the answer to it.

    Thanks.

  4. Whats up guys? My Username, and GT is K2pwnz0r.

    I love to play custom games with people, especially infection or team based games.

    I tend to rage alot if my aiming starts to suck. :L

    I joined because i hope i can be heard. Hopefully some people can agree with my ideas for Halo 4 and 343 hears about it. If that ever happens, thatd be really cool.

    I want to make some good friends while im here.

    I really want to forge like the pros and one day becoming one myself.

    I think my best work was my remake of Four Levels back in Halo 3. This map was for the game "Fat Kid"

    I do have an account on Forgehub but most of my posted work was just basic maps that you can make with your eyes closed and controlling with your a**.

    Im usually not a jerk. If i am, thats if you're just generally irritating, im in a bad mood, or just for fun but 70% of the time im nice.

    I really hate squeakers. Im sorry, i know im not 17 either to fit for "Rated M+ for mature", but at LEAST come talk when youre age is either double digits or when you dont sound like youre hopped up on helium.

    So yeah. pretty much it. Glad to be on another Halo forum community. Peace! :)

  5. I just mainly want this for Forge/Custom Games, since this is basically the only place you can put it.

    I wish you can have to option to modify specific weapons. For example, In some games, you want people to have weapons that deal no damage, but be able to pick up weapons that do deal damage. Like lets say you would want to make a map like the hunger games mod from minecraft. Everybody starts off with a no-damage weapon, but can eventually damage people once they have picked up a different weapon.

    Even better idea, start off with no weapons. No fail mod model where you look like you're carrying a invisible sword, just no weapon (like if you set the weapons trait to Primary and Secondary to none). If you can model the spartans standing straight, like a normal human being, thats cool too.

    Speaking of no weapons, it'd be great if we had the option to use JUST our fists. That'd be AWESOME.

    Thanks.

     

    How about friendly fire? I'm tired of getting betrayed and **** by retarded teamates, random teamate fire, or fail ass gernades. No bloom would be great. I was reading another post about no bloom and maybe introduce recoil to weapons like on battlefield 3. Or just keep the shooting the way it was in halo 3. Also most games don't allow you to customize your button layout. I think this would be a great advantage to gameplay. Make hit boxes better than halo reaches please! Swat players of halo reach know what I'm talkin about. I think you should be able to crouch when ever you want to so you can just hit your crouch button and you will crouch instead of having to have your left stick completely in the middle to crouch.

    I totally agree with your "No betrayal in matchmaking" idea. Also, you probably never noticed that in the past halo games you CAN toggle crouch. Its in the options menu under controls. OFF toggle crouch means u have to hold down left sick and ON is you just press once.

    Nice idea on the "custom controls option" by the way.

     

    Actually, Im just going to say everything.

     

    Multiplayer

    -Like everybody else, 1-50 Ranking system oike Halo 3.

    I joined the Halo communtiy around the release of Halo 3 back in 2007. Ive also learned to respext all the Lv 50 5 Star Generals in Halo 3. All of them ive played with are around MLG level, and i respect that. Unlike Reach where most Inheritors suck d**k and act like a******s.

    -Dual wielding

    -Teamwork based gametypes

    -DO NOT COPY REACH MATCHMAKING.

    -An idea where you can have space battles. If anyone here has ever played Star Wars Battlefront, you know what I'm talking about. Basically, Like the mission "Long night of solace" on Reach but more Team vs Team

    -No betrayal

     

    Custom Games

    -Unarmed option

    -Fists as weapons

     

    Forge

    -Every vehicle in past Halo history (Elephant, shade, chopper, hornet, etc)

    -Covenant/UNSC/Forerunner forge pieces (seperately)

    -FFA Forge

    -Bring back the option "only host can forge"

    -For the love of GOD bring back Sandtrap and Sandbox

    -Editable Weapon traits (weapon damage)

    -Teleport option (If someone is helping you on a map, you die somehow and spawn REALLY far away, you can teleport to teammates in forge mode)

    -

  6. Well, i could care less about features for matchmaking and campaign, but i would like more things to do in forge.

    For example, make the forge system a complete sandbox. (Not literally)

    I would like to be able to make forge items a lot more complex, such as the block system. Instead of having a specific block, i would prefer to have a system where you can choose what block you'd like. Such as 1x1, 1x5,6x3, etc. Also, i wish you can change colour and design of chosen items. It's such a pain to match a wall when the wall looks very bleak and uncolourful.

    If there is a new map that will replace Forge World, I think the vital items and budget should be unlimited. Forgers these days need the ability of freedom, instead of making a fun, balanced map while having to maintain their pieces and budget.

    These things really shape the new maps that are created. Also, you should be able to have the feature of having full control of what the map will look like in completion. Like, having environmental options such as weather, time of day, or even season (Snow, Desert, Jungle, Grasslands).

     

    And PLEASE, GIVE US THE ABILITY TO SWIM.

    -Thanks, I'd really appreciate if 343 would put my ideas in Halo 4.
