As we all know Halo 5 GAURDIANS features REQS. This post is including the REQ cards from the
Cartographer’s Gift.
There are a total of:
92 Loadout Weapons
76 Power Weapons
61 Vihicles 229 Items Total
Now as all of us who watched last night’s stream are aware REQ Variants ARE NOT included in Forge here’s the total of unavailable arsenal content in Forge:
87 Loadout Weapons
49 Power Weapons
49 Vihicles 185 Items Total
Now here’s a total of the ones avaliable:
5 Loadout weapons
27 Power Weapons
12 Vihicles 44 Items Total
Youll notice immediately that the amount of avaliable items is about 5 times less than the amount of total content. Let’s dive deeper by getting a percentage of N/A & avliable arsenal content remember PEMDAS and to get a percentage of a whole take
(Lower Number÷Total)*100=%
And don’t forget to round
(185÷229)*100=80.79% N/A
(044÷229)*100=19.21% Avaliable
However in ever single main Halo game ever made more than half the weapons in the game were avaliable in multiplayer. Halo 5 breaks tradition by saying simply, NO!
I made a poll but I can’t post links for some reason, if someone could link it that’d be gr8!
This is really stupid i was looking forward to creating maps focusing around some legendary weapons like the prophets bane or nornfang I’d really like it if 343 woud change this and allow us weapon variants in forge
I feel like 343 is really limiting the sandbox by making that decision. I know they were able to get the SPNKR into Arena, but I really wish all variants were available for use in Forge.
I really wish they would put REQs in forge. They know we want it, and there should be no reason as to why there are no REQs in forge. They also need to add a UNSC air vehicle. They know how upset we were in Halo 4.

It better be smooth upon release because of how long they took on it. They claim they want it
Machinima friendly, they give useless tvs and what not but can’t even give us a core function of the game itself?

Yup unfortunately that’s not going to be possible, some Sandbox mode this is. I feel the same way I was wanting to have an all out war with Void’s Tear
But nope they don’t care
I’m pretty sure they will put in variants eventually. They did say in the stream that they will look out for people’s opinions and suggestions to improve forge. Not to mention when it gets released there is going to be a bunch more posts about variants being in forge. Its basically a time bomb just waiting to explode.

They already said they won’t and this confirms it and it shouldn’t have to be a time bomb in order to happen, it’s implied that if it’s in multiplayer, it’s in Forge that’s how it’s always been. The fact that almost everyone is surprised that they aren’t present in the only place you can try out the weapons without any consequences shows thats it’s implied.
Yeah 343, how dare you not allow 229 weapons available to us in something you have been completely overhauling for three years and making sure there are no bugs on release. Yeah how dare you not allow us weapon variants. I WANT MY DAMN SUPRESSOR. Come on guys, look how many objects there already are. Everyone saying there is no reason they didn’t add them in has no idea how much work making this from the ground up actually takes. There is only a limited amount of memory they can work with. Most people would want better looking blocks and more Forge friendly features than 9 freaking variants of the same BR. I understand the legendaries, that would be cool and hopefully they could be added later, but please at least pretend to think about why they did it instead of throwing accusations around because you can’t get the entire world handed to you on a silver platter.

They can do a lot more than you think they can,it is possible to to do so. It’s not much of a good comparison but look at advanced warfare it had more weapons than halo 5 does and we are able to use every single one of them. Plus they are already in the game, coding textures, meshes wire frames it’s all there it wouldn’t use up any more memory do now. I’m sure they’ve got plenty of memory because they’ll be updating every month
At least when Bungie’s made Halo, all Multiplayer was in Forge. And all this game has a couple of Weapons, Vihicles, game modes, (the main aspects of Halo), and to compensate they give us a few new blocks and new fx features? At least in Halo 2 you could the scarab gun, and if you were the testing room get it in multiplayer.
Come on guys, we can do it! Let’s make a massive uproar, like we did with the SPNKr and they listened. Maybe we can get them to listen if we make a huge issue of this.
I was just recently forging a stealth based one flag secret agents map and i realized how stupid this issue is because they don’t have even a single suppressed weapon. they also need to put a recon sighted magnum and give it at least a few upgrades including suppression because even if they did have reqs in forge anyone trying to do a 007 sorta thing like me would be stuck using the whispered truth and that would end very poorly.
