Saw the Bulletin today, it was nice that they were actually spending time to answer questions from the community but I was not expecting blunt info as they want to present that later on. What got me was that they do want to cater to the Community side of Halo fans like Machinima, Forge, etc and that we expect to get info later in the year. Yet, they say that there will be good news for us but Frankie does not hype it as much as he does with everything else about H4 (IMO). Do you guys really think their going to make drastic improvements with Forge and Customs that many of us have been asking for since Forge was first created?

He probably was tired after doing several interviews about it and wants to move on. That and he probably doesn’t want to get himself so he might not spill a few spoilers he shouldn’t tell.
All I’m saying is that at the very least, the bar should be at Reach’s level. If its anywhere below that in at least Forge’s aspect, I’m gonna be upset.
he said its not going to be sad news. so obvious its going to be even better then reach. also he didnt talk about it much because he cant. its like expecting a bad campaign because he didnt talk about it… dont worry bout it

Honestly, if it was at Reach’s level I would be upset. Reach was a good game but Forge could have been much better. I am hoping for the same in H4. I do not want a limit so bad that I can’t make a lot of big maps, have everything gray, be limited to what I do cause I have to Forge around Forge World’s terrain, you could keep going… I appreciate H4 is even coming back but it would make someone sad
lol
hopefully theres more pieces that are movable

As long as they can find a way for it to work with split screen without huge FPS drops or even big FPS drops on solo play, Forge World was horrible for things like this, even sticking with blunt and plain gray didn’t fix the issues Forge World was going to have.

After Reach, yeah, i think 343 is going to improve over the 1 man theater mode and dull Forge maps.
What i would like to see is more in game support for fan made videos as to make it easier to make great films.

I understand that perfectly. I definetly want Forge to be better than ever, and current Forge can really need some improvements, just as much as my spelling.
Forge is one of those things that is more “subject to change” than most other areas. Campaign and multiplayer would come before that so Forge, while something they would want to improve, would be something that would have things cut for time. He likely doesn’t want to oversell something when he isn’t certain about the final product. Frankie has always been like this. Yeah he hypes the game as a whole but you’ll notice that he never says anything definite in terms of fan opinion. He says things like “we think most people will like this”. He’s not the big headed executive we often see marketing the product, he’s the mild mannered employee who wants to be a friend to us. That’s not to say he’s a god or everything he says consists of brilliant words of wisdom but he’s as honest as he can be without compromising his position.
