Forge.... What will it be like

Halo 4 Forge

What do you want to see in it?
Features, new items, vehicles, old/new weapons, climate effects, AI’s[if posssible :)]
auto turrets for bases, self destruct ability for bases

What Do YOU want to see?

Global water level control.

Play test bots.

terrain editing. ie snow, desert, forest…

YESSS… great idea
if 343 can pull it off that will beat any map creator hands down

No more -Yoink- budget. Change the environment.

I hope they actually have forge. The fact that the took out firefight makes me worry for other modes like Forge and Theater.

They have already confirmed forge in the game and stated, “it won’t make you sad”

If they take out anything from forge that will hurt them so i doubt they will take anything out but hopefully thy will add things that makes it even better

Night time effects, water vehicle on/or below the surface, destructible environment, in-space map

The day forge and theatre are removed from halo, Microsoft will go bankrupt and giant flying pigs will take over the earth.

Unlimited budget, weather effects, and an option that allows you to snap surfaces together without having to go through the tedious task of editing coordinates.

A space map would be sick!

> No more Yoink! budget. Change the environment.

the budget is always a drag so if they can expand it or eliminate it all together that would make it Amazing

The object limit is also a drag, but its there for the purpose so you cant overload the map:( but I would still like to see it expanded

HAHAHAHAHA thats true in every way

UNLIMITED BUDGET CAN’T HAPPEN!

The “budget” is simply the limit on the total number of objects placeable on a map. If there is no budget, maps will lag like crazy and might crash the game.

Copy objects with one button would help A LOT
AND if u can select an entire structure(any forge piece touching each other) and move it somewhere else

We know that but the limit on specific objects like buildings, buildng blocks, natural, etc. should be expanded into one category to help alleviate some of the “ran out of walls to use” problem

opening doors. Bridge switches.

> opening doors. Bridge switches.

that would be a gr8 feature but i dont know how they would go about doing that…
any feedback?

The budget is there for file size restrictions.

Each Forge item has a file size, larger items have larger file sizes, so they cost more.

Even if there wasn’t a budget restriction, there would still be a restriction on the total size of the file.

tl;dr - The budget is there so people aren’t making a terabyte sized Forge creation.
