Halo 5’s Forge was almost universally recognized as the most innovative rendition of Forge ever created for a console Halo title, and maybe even the best map creation tool in the franchise. However, there is still a large gap between the quality of developer made maps to community made maps just based on the limitations of Forge.
Halo CE and Halo 2’s PC map editing tools allow players to create maps with the same quality of developer made maps (some of the community made maps on Halo 2 are downright astonishing). It’s obvious that the technology was very much less advanced back when these tools and maps were created, but I would like to see something akin to the Map Editor in Halo Infinite, something to make our community made maps look on par to developer made maps, with the right combination of effort and technological innovation.
With Halo Infinite being developed for both PC as well as the next generation of Xbox consoles (as well as far more poweful Xbox Ones than what Halo 5 had to work with), I believe something like the Map Editor for Halo Infinite could be feasible and take community content creation even farther than it is with Halo 5 now. Maps would look absolutely beautiful (they still do in Halo 5, but the building system makes some maps look more like Halo 2’s blocky design at some points) and drive the quality of Forge through the roof.
Just a thought, but definitely something to take into consideration for the expansion of Forge, as every title since Reach has done so in some way.
