Hey guys,
I remember ages ago back when bungie still looked after Reach that they posted about implementing custom invasion maps made by players into the invasion playlist.
What happened? I would LOVE more map variety in that mode, its my favourite!
It won’t happenen, Invasion has a total of FOUR Local Players, meaning implementing Forge maps would not be supported.
Invasion won’t change for a while unless 343i are willing to limit players on one console.
Dam thats a shame, the game mode is really lacking in the map department imho.
Hello friend. Come join us on this thread here to try and keep it up at the top consistently enough for 343 to take notice and possibly do something. I think everyone is well aware that it is a long shot, but hey there isn’t much to loose at this point.

In regards to what happened with all that, well Bungie sort of said screw it we’re done. They did multiple community rounds of slayer rather than cycling it as was originally believed. So at that point all other community maps and the whole forgetacular thing basically just got thrown out the door after a few months and no mention to that ever happened again in official terms. Made me quite sad.

I would actually like to not see that anymore. For the strangest reason, about 95% of the time any Invasion game I play where a player has more than one guest they end up quitting and ruining the rest of the game.

It won’t be changing anytime soon, it’s unfair on those who do have more than one guest.
We should have a guests playlist, so guests can go in there and play and not limit the playlists for people who have their own xboxes.

This would be a great idea to be implemented. If guests are the ones who are limiting the amount of custom content that can be employed into matchmaking, why not make a list or two for them? This way guests can still play online matchmaking, but not hinder those who are looking for new content to come into matchmaking.
There are more positives to this than negatives, and new custom maps are one of those positives.
