As any desiring Halo fan would be hyped If the famed Forge World made a dramatic return, it would instantly increase the population and bought copies of Halo 5: Guardians.
At the moment H5 is £20 ($30) in most online retailers and many people are thinking about buying something to tie them over until this Autumn. Many of these people have played a Halo before and that would be fairly likely to be Halo 3 or Halo: Reach. That fact 343i is very generously given us free maps and game modes (which arguably should’ve been in at the start) is a draw for many and a good or,e model for the CoDs and Battlefields. If they brought out a free, remastered rendition of Forge World 2.0 their population counts, copies sold and general buzz about the game would quite obviously increase exponentially. So why not? Too big of a task? Probably… If anyone can do it,I believe 343i can.
Im pretty sure i heard it was coming back at some point.
Furthermore, the memories, fun and maps the resurfacing iconic Forge World could recapture, should be enough for them to do it. In an ideal World maybe…

Tom French actually said that It was planned to be in the launch of halo 5 but due to other things they weren’t able to work on it.
What? If they were to bring back Forge World it wouldn’t make a large enough difference in population. People would not buy the game like you claim just because of it. Halo 5 would need to have something completely new that was added. Say they made a Halo 3 ODST pack and it came with Halo 5 mulitplayer a few new maps, forge world at a cheap price like 40$, then you may see an increase in the community.
But by just adding the canvas for forge world it wouldn’t create a large enough impact to warrent 343 to make it. They’d make it to appease the current player base and maybe get some return from people who put the game down. To say that it would make a large/increase in population you are sadly mistaken.

From the players I know online friends/from school etc, they pretty much all played Halo: Reach if they owned an Xbox 360. I’m speaking that knowledge and a fairly reasonable guess that people would buy Halo 5 for Forge World. All it would take is to say ‘remember how fun Forge World was’ and the low price would mean most of my mates at the very least would go out and buy Halo 5 and they had not experienced a fun map creator like that in a AAA FPS. The high price and competition meant many old fans decided not to come back. Now with a lower price, infection, and more content on the way AND FORGE WORLD, what’s stopping old fans, who restrained from buying at release, coming back?
The one problem these retailers have already bought Halo 5 for the initial fee when the game first came out. When these games sell for 20$ or cheaper it mostly these individual companies just trying to make something back. 343 already got the money from the copy when they sold it months prior. With this knowledge that i want to say is accurate but cannot confirm, it doesn’t give 343 a valuable and beneficial reason to make a big commitment that has little returns.
Now they could make a huge overhaul to the game, UI update, etc. Slap on a 20$ expansion pack fee that would get you access. At least at that point 343 would make money, but by doing do so would fracture the community.
I would love to see forge world come back, but the way the market is and how Halo 5 is with there dlc I cannot get my hopes up that this is something that would return. If it does then awesome but I’m not counting on it.
Yeah you make a good point about the stockpile retailers have and how they underestimated the number of copies sold.
I had a slight belief they would’ve done for the fans to make us long term guys stay for awesomeness of 343 and what they really do for the fans.
Now I have no hope hahaha
Forge World would be epic
Well, if it were to come in Halo 5, it would’ve came in ‘Memories of Reach’…I’m just saying, don’t keep your hopes up.
I don’t know why it wasn’t in MOR it’s one of the most iconic things from reach let’s hope its In hog wild but I doubt it

Source?
WHAT IS FORGE WORLD? is it just like regular forge?
I’d rather have a canvas with plenty of water instead, perhaps with some depth to it in addition.
Not like we really need a Forge world with how amazing this game is with adding terrain. Island-based maps (or any map with a lot of water) are hard to do due to how little there is.
Oh, and unless this supposed Forge World 2.0 has enough space to recreate Timberland, I’m not interested.

have you never played Reach?..anyway…it’s a HUGE map that has a large Island, a valley, cave, hangar base, cliffs, and an ocean…it’s probably 7x the size of ‘Alpine’ from Halo 5.
I believe if forge world and the places for forging in halo 3 as well as the old places to forge come back it would work really well also.
Cue the dramatic return of Forge World.
On a more serious note, I think a map like that would be great, but it will probably won’t bring in as many people as you describe.

Maybe twice the size. Maybe. Forge World isn’t as big as you may remember it.

The good thing about it is the caves, the water, the island, the hangar, it has a lot of things, it´s like four big maps in one, endless possibilities.
