Community, Forge and Custom Games

So guys what do we want to see in terms of the community, forge and custom games as in MCC it was pretty much dead. Personally I would like to see a return of a halo 3 and Reach style community with maps, game mods and screenshots of the week like halo 3 and a most downloaded and highest rated like Reach. The new forge features where cool but we have had forge awhile now, I don’t know what I want all I know is I want more things in forge. Anyway please post what features you guys would like to see in halo 5!

idk some game types and maps that were community made in reach were -Yoinking!- stupid with random pieces all over the place but there were good maps like the heavies ones

Everything from the OP with a fileshare. All I ask.

Customs are a very important feature, I am looking forward to see what we can create in halo 5’s forge.

You know what would make forge the best? Ai spawning! (As well as being able to configure them like in GTA V’s online creator but with more options) That would make it EPIC!

One of the really big things that killed customs IMO was the lack of file share support, and the searching of fileshare. The big thing with reach and 3 was that weather in game or online you could easily search via creator, tag, title or type. In 4 and MCC its very hard to find files and whatnot. If they brought back a bungie esque search/website for the fileshare, I think wed see a boost in Customs.

For forge, advance more in the Far Cry editor way of forging maps, but without going too far, I tried to make a remake of a Halo Reach map in forge but you have to look for twisted ways of doing everything because it’s just the same editor as Halo Reach but with some adds in the form of more objects.

You also have the fact that you can’t use building blocks or colliseum walls for some maps because their textures don’t fit, there should be a way to select a texture for some objects. If I want to built a forerunner-ish map, I have to use reach. If I want to do it with more humanish look, choose Halo 4 and in Halo 2 Anniversary it’s just like a piece of untextured wall

We Need a better file share and one with Map ratings, Most Played And Newest. Maybe even also a way to subscribe to the person kinda like youtube in a sense

I wish, lol. I know AI on a custom map can be very complicated.

For now, I am just hoping for time of day and weather settings. An option to merge items to vehicles and weapons would be very cool as well, I want to make an armored warthog that does not instantly fall apart.

Could’t have been better than the Reach days. It was perfect, then they took it all away. Sad.

This is pretty much true, reach was the best times for the custom community. It improved upon everything in halo 3, and you had so much creativity with maps it was really amazing how dedicated the community was back then. Then halo 4 came and killed the community with lack of customization options. MCC tried to improve it, but the lack of a real working file share, and the inability to join midgame customs didn’t help.

They would need to bring back some of the features to keep that creativity in, like fine-tuning with zoom. And since this is the xbox one version, maybe 343 can wow us with new content.

My wishlist is having the ability to include AI on forge maps, weather, destructible environments, and the bility to modify the damage of individual weapons.

I agree, Reach was the best for community and customs, honestly was so much fun, but also I managed to get my hands on the halo 3 classic customs i’m sure everyone has played, like halo, duck hunt, jenga ect ect, if you want to play on MCC i’m normally on at 1800 GMT hit me up my GT is Insane DK XIII, also will be putting them on my file share tonight.
