Forge Ideas for Halo 5

Just some ideas for Forge in Halo 5 that I think would be pretty cool.

  • Copy and paste -

If this is already in I haven’t noticed it. It would be cool to select multiple pieces (a base on one side for example) and then copy it…taking all the pieces you selected as one and being able to place it on the opposite side. This would be good for symmetrical maps.

  • Altering terrain and tunnels -
    It would be cool to have maybe set sizes and shapes that hover over the ground and either raise or lower the terrain level for that area.

Also how cool would it be to take a tunnel like the ones in Dispatch forge and put it through a mountain. When you move the tunnel into the mountain it goes into a see -through view of the mountain so you can make a tunnel or room inside of it.

  • Covenant-style map and pieces/ ability to turn on flood infected style -

This would be so awesome. I think if there were covenant pieces introduced people could make some amazing maps. You could have maybe a hollowed out belly of a covenant cruiser or something. If you want to with either your UNSC or Covenent style map…you can have the option to turn on a flood-incfected option for your map.

  • Time of day -

You can choose either dusk, mid-day, sunset, or night.

Those are just some ideas that I have feel free to add some if you have them. Thanks !

I support the above

I agree with everything, and here’s some stuff I’d like.

Ability to change the theme of pieces on the fly from either UNSC, Covenant, Forerunner, or Flood, and if you change the theme of one piece it won’t change all of the pieces to that theme, only the one you selected.

Undo button

Invisible walls

More awesome effects. The ones right now are a bit lacking

ability to change from day to night

All types of Arch pieces (from tall and skinny to short and stout and everything in between with all types of shapes)

precision editing back

ability to change your background

Ability to group structures you made and make them a custom piece.

larger amount of structure pieces

larger budget

That’s all I can think of for now.

This kind of goes along with the copy and paste idea.

“GROUPING” you would basically like highlight or select all the pieces that you want, and group them into one piece, then you can move around and rotate that giant peace, but you could also undo the group.
