Halo 3 Forge Tip: Mouse Trap

Forge Fence BoxHere’s a nifty little Forge trick (I stole from Lo Pan… Again.) You can create a really easy mouse trap by grabbing the Fence Box and flipping it on it’s head… or back… or over. Whatever.

Just rotate it so the opening is at the top.

The Fence Box rules because it’s only $6. Just one Fence wall will cost you $4. Who doesn’t love a good bargain?

Now you’ve got a trap that you can’t jump out of. That means dudes and chicks (that’s for you Riane) will get stuck in it and will have to commit suicide or wait to get killed to escape.

Lo Pan threw a couple of fusion cores and propane tanks into the trap to make it more interesting. That way you can shoot the tanks (or toss a grenade in there) to kill the poor bastard who fell in.

Getting somebody to fall in is the trick. One idea is to place the traps under a floating object. And maybe the only way to get on the floating object is to use a mancannon. Well, if you over shoot or slip off the floating object - in to the trap you fall.

Lots of ways to do it. Lo Pan has got a version of Standoff with all those goodies… We’ll see if he ever uploads it to FileShare for all to enjoy.

    Another hot tip would be to flip it over so the opening is on the bottom, then prop up one edge with fusion coils. Now you just need the cheese. How about a rocket launch, laser, sniper, etc. Make sure you put the trap in a high traffic area so that a stray grenade might trap someone on accident.

    or what you could do is have it in the air set for liek a 60 sec respawn.
    so that when someone stumbles across the cheese “i:e Rocket or Active Camo”
    another player can shoot the trap and have it fall open side down on top of them, no escape, plus after said player dies in cage the cage will respawn and keep falling randomly so any unsuspecting player stumbles under it and is trapped :]

    wow u guys r so dumb! they float so u cant make them fall no matter wat and u can easily grenade jump out. if u put a fusion coil in it you can stand on the fusion coil and shoot down at it and u will skyrocket you out!!!

    yeah easy way to get out of those boxes, just grenade crouch jump or hammer jump if your luck enough to get one before you fall in.
