Halo Reach’s file management system is very similar to Halo 3’s. In halo 3 you could only have 100 custom content items, so the system was fine.
With Halo Reach, you can have 1,000 Map variants alone, see the problem?
I myself have in excess of 700 Forge World variants, and if you have any amount near me (or more) you will understand where I’m coming from when I say, the file management system is horrible. Sometimes it takes more than a whole minute to load the list of Forge World variants, and then another minute to find the map I am looking for.
For Halo 4. I propose the following changes and features. Some of them are basic, or common sense, but I feel posting them is necessary.
- Improve file management- Add the ability to create, rename, delete, and add files to folders
- Add the ability to pin a file, or folder to the top of the list
- Add the ability to categorize files- Add new categories
- Filter files by category- Add the ability to select more than one file at a time- Delete
- Upload- Improve file handling. By this I mean things such as:- Improve speed
- Save lists to cache
- Load lists before you select them, in the background
Feel free to suggest other additions that could be made.
Also, there is a post I made a while back, which I saved to my blog regarding this. Here’s a link, if you’re interested
