Forge is broken

Forged an awesome map and saved it. When i tried to start it up i was stuck and unable to do anything.
All i could do is open up the menu and quit the game. rip 4 hours of hard work. Ive also heard numerous complaints coming from multiple people about various different bugs in forge.

Lol we waited 2 months for a forge that doesnt even function as it should. This never happened in any of the halo games.

I have this problem too. Another problem i have is that i cant respawn if I die while in forge.

Had you ‘saved as’ or had you done just a quick save before finishing the map?

I feel like this is a false claim

No it is not a false claim. Go try it out yourself. As long as there are no spawn points your map wont work at all when you restart it. And yes i used save as instead of save map and no it doesnt make a difference. I stand by my word. Forge is broken.

Just place a spawn point or two when you start forging. It’s one of the first things I do anyway.

Hopefully they add automatic spawns at some point, but this is a problem that really is very avoidable if you take a couple seconds to make a spawn point where you’re working.

look through my previous posts on forge topics, try that method

Standard 343, promising us something great, giving us something mediocre.

Ive made 3 forge maps since release. Cant say ive had any problems at all. Ive seen a lot of posts about spawn deaths but never experienced any of it. I never start with spawnpoints as well. The only thing I have noticed tho is my armour keeps changing to the Fotus randomly, not game breaking but interesting. Not calling you a liar, just saying some people have had a smooth run so far.

I’ve experienced the same thing. I created a map with spawn points. I saved and loaded it up and even played a custom game. 2 hours later when I go to select it, it is saying retrieving data…

Something is broken

Ive had this issue too but its actually not broken, just select the map and start the game, itll load.

I tried. it then counts down and loads up then it is frozen until I have to leave forge…It’s been that way the few hours. restarted xbox and all.

This is completely false because I’m able to get back into my maps just fine without spawn points, your word is -Yoink-

My buddy had a bad issue yesterday. He had been working on a map for about three days & I spent about three hours yesterday with him in his room doing stuff. Then near the end of us talking/building he flies up to pieces on his map & they won’t let him grab them or do anything. So we start looking around & there’s a good number of pieces in the map that won’t let you grab them or anything. He saved four different versions of the map along the way & they are all like that. He basically has to start over because even if he tried to place a new version of that object then select “Delete All” from the map, that piece is used so often most of the map would be gone. He doesn’t even feel like starting over because he’s afraid the same thing will happen again at some point. I don’t blame him honestly.

sigh

Idk what y’all are on. I’ve always “saved as” on a canvas to guarentee I have the map. Been like this since halo 3. Halo 3 also wouldn’t let you delete the last spawn point. Same rules apply… you guys just seem a bit unobserved

Which would be what?
