HOLY -Yoink!- this map is a BEAST. You can forge on top the water (not in it, but that’s been staple since forever), you have to travel for 30 seconds to the sides to hit any kill boundaries, and I haven’t hit the height limit yet. Plus, the tree blocks are hella good. Video to come soon, but let me just say this: 343 Industries has done a SUPERB job.

It takes forever to hit land when falling from the top of the map

Imagine the Speed Halo maps that will be made…
Wait did I miss something?! Its already out?!!!
It is not out yet. It’s gonna come out at 11th April
I’m guessing these guys played the hands-on demo at PAX East.

Incorrect, it is available on the Xbox Live Marketplace!
I’m very pleased to hear the excitement surrounding Forge Island, but how can it be made public yet?
Not another Crimson map pack issue I hope.
It was intentionally released today. bs angel hinted at it in the Bulletin.
How are the trees?
Heck yes! SO AWESOME! :DDDDDD
Agreed. I was holding off forging because of the general state of the original forge maps, but I’m very keen to get started now.
> How are the trees?
They look like actual trees so I think it’s good, but there isn’t much room to jump on them.

I’ve been trying to find that, can you quote it for me please & thanks.
Flood people, you forge inside the islands by forcing a teleporternode inside, steam is on the water, just thought you all might like to know that.
Custom Games will be revived!
Oh sweet, I’ll have a look later.
YESSSS!!! XD
> How are the trees?
Magnificent! They even sway in the wind!
thank you 343Industries salute
Glad to see you guys are enjoying Forge Island. I expect to see some awesome maps!
