>Map editor (you're not making your own maps though) > Does not support geometry creation, or texture modification > Allows you to remove and place any items or vehicles or spawn points or objectives, etc... anywhere on the existing maps > For things like weapons you can tweak their respawn timer and ammo count and other minor things > You can have multiple people work in the Forge editor over Xbox Live! > You can also dynamically switch from creation mode to playing mode and run around in the game. > If you are "playing" in Forge and have other players in it, they can still change things! For instance, if you have a friend making a pyramid of fusion cores, you can return to "play" mode and lob a grenade in to destroy all his work! > Make your own kind of games in forge. Bungie gives the example of grab the mongoose. One player rides a mongoose while everyone else tries to grab it out from under him by removing it in Forge! Another is like a magic carpet ride where one player will stand on a object and a forge monitor will drag it along making the player ride it through the air. > Finally Bungie talked about how you can kind of make it into a real-time strategy game (RTS) where you set up "teams" where each team has a monitor creating items for his team to use.
the final point u have there, about the make-shift RTS game, is the only thing that really intrigues me there, but booooy it reaaaaalllllyyy intrigues me. that sounds amazing, actually.
this is cool and all but is it actually revolutionary?!?! dont think so. timesplitters 2 had the same type of thing way back when. the extra features are cool, but the spawn movement and weapon relocation has been done before.
