Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
Yes, you read correctly.

This map is perfect. Solid underneath for say... a Wizard/Warlock remake, a middle area for an outdoor forge area, and a top area where you can fall off the map; a la Lockout, Ascension, etc.
WOW

Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
I think this was posted somewhere already.

On a somewhat related, very obscure note.
Plays right into the Red vs. Blue story. In episode 16 or 17 of Reconstruction, Tucker is on the radio to command and he says they found what they were looking for, and it's under the sand. Sandbox would be a perfect location for that plot line in the upcoming series.
Sandbox almost makes me want to play Halo 3 again.

Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
If that bottom level is the same scale as the middle level, there might just be enough room for something almost like Hang Em High. Or a Foundry remake...
Those who can't play, mod.

Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
It seems they are actually trying to fulfill a Halo 3 gamers needs. They're making a campaign where you can play as an ODST, not the same ol' chief. And now they're making a map pack worth while, with a map that you can build on, under, and above.. finally allowing some creativity. For once I must say, congratulations Bungie.
On the side I must say forging on this map is going to be a turn in forge history, you'll see forge hub gone mad.. and of course, *sigh* a lot of pointless recon.

Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
Now if only the engine, forge, and hardware were able to accommodate populating all threes levels of sandbox to make three completely different maps in one.

You can play on all thee levels in one map variant with teleporters.xbox wrote:Now if only the engine, forge, and hardware were able to accommodate populating all threes levels of sandbox to make three completely different maps in one.
Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
Obviously, but there are only 640 slots available for you to fill.
That is not enough to create 3 full and complete maps with spawns, weapons, and scenery.

Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
Actually, it is possible. Nobody said they had to be big ones. Technically, the middle and bottom level could consist of a spawn point or two.

Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
I read too fast.
Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
I'm officially interested now. That looks pretty cool.
Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
I'm interested now as well... I wonder if usermap modding can pull even more possibilities out of this map.
Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
Lower levels look phenomenal. I'm psyched now.

Another pic showing the scale.
Re: Sandbox Upper, Middle, and Lower Levels
Yeah it's a nice map. Tons of room.
