I’ll be honest, the most fun I’ve ever had in a video game was building the custom maps and game types that my friends and I would play when we got bored of multi-player. Now, obviously forge is going to be in Halo 4, or if not, really needs to be, but it all comes down to details.
When Bungie added in the ‘phased’ objects in Reach, It completely revolutionized how we forge maps, and the addition of the precision editing helped that too. I’m not necessarily looking for a huge make over to forge mode, But nice additions.
The Biggest thing I’m looking for is Variety. There is simply no end to the space and variations that could be used in Forge World or Tempest, but there was no variety in the pieces themselves. Everything was shiny, gray Forerunner Tech. what would be awesome is if we could have multiple spaces with multiple themes, such as Foundry and Sandbox from Halo 3, in addition to a Forerunner forge area. Taking it a step further, a Covenant forge area would be amazing too.
Now I realize that this is a lot more complex than it sounds, but that would allow entirely different flavors, if you will, to be used in map editing.
But What does everyone else think? Like the Idea of multiple Forge spaces? Got other Ideas?
