Ok. QUICK Question.
Why in the world, would anyone want to use the small islands when its the EXACT same as the largest island. Theres no hills or anything.
So when someone chooses a map… Why would they even want to use the smaller islands.
Theres no point to them… so why not put some small hills or nooks and crannys around the map like Forge WORLD did with waterfalls and caverns. All while having the Largest flat island be the MAIN part of it?
For being free… its still a fail
You go in the map to make stuff… and its 3 flat surfaces at sizes. theres no point to using the smaller ones because you have the big one. -.-
Some people are just ungrateful…
If you can’t find use for the tinier islands then you have no imagination and/or just complaining for the sake of it.
The idea is that forgers will not have to deal with the extra space if they were to build a small map on the largest island, the smaller islands allow players to design a map with less excess
If players want to use the water to kill players if they fall off their map, they can?
Bigger isn’t always better of you want a small map. It acts as a natural boundary, so that players do not spend their budget making one.
I assume people will just slap a portal on each base and just teleport between them
Sometimes having too much space isn’t good for a map. Having different sizes to work with is more suitable.
Shouldn’t it be the Forge Archipelago?
I just knew someone would find some petty, inconsequential thing in a free gift to the community to Yoink about!
343 never gets a break.

Heh. “You are giving us too much free stuff!!!”
Nice logic OP. Complaining about free.
Then ignore the other islands. How is free space a bad thing?
What if this is just map number one out of three… they might be making Three free DLC forge maps.
One is Forge Island. Two is Forge Desert. Three is Forge City.
“Got my fingers crossed”!
Wtf OP, really.
343 gives us a brand new Forge World entirely, and a FREE one at that, and you’re complaining that they gave us too much?
Wtf.
This thread is just laughable.
It’s a new and bigger forge space… for free.
There can be no “problems”.
It makes me wonder why this wasn’t here at launch. It takes 0 effort to make 3 cylinders and copy the Ravine pallet.

Someone has no imagination.
Lol, what if you wanted to build a map like Pinnacle from Halo Reach? Have some imagination.

This is actually untrue. They aren’t perfect cylinders, multiple forge pallets were included, as well as some new ones. These are new textures that had to be designed, as well as the skybox and everything around it. Holes in the map had to be found, kill boundaries measured. Testing how big the budget could be. You couldn’t make something like this in a short amount of time.
Think about it in the ways of animation. One minute of a polished animation that actually runs smooth could take up to a day or more depending on the quality. Weekly cartoons are made in advance. Not just as they go. Unless of course, it’s a low budget animation. Either that, or they would have to have a large work force on the show. Very large.
