So from what I’ve seen it looks like we won’t be able to forge trees. Considering that they all cast shadows and the branches do move with the wind.
However, I did notice that the turret platform at 2:10 and the barricades at the top of the base at 2:22 share similar aesthetics and seem to be part of a new forge pallet. They don’t seem to fit with the basic colors of the map though, since the starting bases of the map are a rusty grey color while these supposed new forge pieces are very dark colored (almost black) with bright blue outline.
Notice how some of the trees look different from the rest. Some are greyish and some are brown. The grey trees might be forgable and I didn’t really notice them giving off shadows or blowing in the wind. I’ll have to check that out again to make sure. Keep in mind that a shadow under a tree might be from a close tree next to it and not actually the original tree’s shadow.
Considering they said the map would match the PC version, and the bridges, turret platforms, and barricades weren’t on the original map; I think it is safe to say they will be forgable.

well, they’ll be matching it as best they can b/c they said they’ve shrunk the map by 20% so unless the classic version is 20% bigger then it won’t be exactly the same.

Of course it will be scaled down, but I never said exact. I’ve just played on that map on PC enough to notice what will and will not be in the classic version of the map.

I knew what you were saying, I was just making it clear for anyone else who didn’t know. If 343 is fine with having it be 20% smaller then odds are good that something else will be left changed as well. My guess is that the trees are the most likely culprit b/c we’ve never had forgeable trees before (as much as I’d love to have them).

maybe you should reread the post like i just did to make shore your right.

I did, the only place bs angel even used the word “skybox” in that article was to describe them. Nothing was said about forging them.
