Dog-Fight Sandbox


Well hell, I was bored of Halo for a while. Then I went t Bungie.net and found Sandbox... forgegasm... ewww. For those who don't know I created Dog-Fight. So, I thought, this will be perfect for Dog-Fights gameplay style. A Dog-Fight in Sandbox, Gimme your ideas. I want to make this Dog-Fight absolutely perfect. Any suggestions, Suggest em... just remember to make it legible! (I will note everything)

EDIT: We've covered some spawn killing issues, but I'd like it if you guy's went nuts with these ideas, I need new, crazy, out there ideas as well as smart ones. Oh and look at the Dog-Fight post I already pasted it but, HERE, LOOK AT IT BEFORE COMMENTING!!!

I believe I have a simple solution to that, if you have any ideas as to how to fix that problem tell me, you never know. ( And yes I've noticed the two different Hornets, it's better than just two!)

There was an idea going around in the Sandbox thread about a Vehicle only CTF game where you die if you get off your vehicle. Try to find that (it's probably buried in there somewhere) and start brainstorming ideas.
I was a fan of your dog fight map but, as eguitar said, the spawn killing was an issue. Try having spawns in a camp-free place with multiple teleporters going out. That way it will be hard to kill every member going out of the base.

Make an inside to your bases. On the outside is a vehicle platform, with one of your scorpion guns you used on the Avalanche dogfight map. You can't go back in the base once you leave via some shield doors with some grav lifts pushing outside the base.

Mmmm... those both seem a little... "minigame-ish" I Do like the inside to the base's idea though. Thanks.

Nothing big, just they way you describe how the players spawn. I really wanted it to feel more like a regular game. (Maybe Minigame-ish wasn't the right way to say it.)

Nice map and nice fix for the spawn-killing. You should make the map in the skybox on sandbox but put some structures in the middle so the tanks cant just shoot across the map.
