Just post your forging ideas here, to help make simpler & easy to use forge options. So add on & type up which Forge Category it falls under. Now, we know these ideas & our imagination, aren’t going to be put in the game (or are they?) but just give an idea of a helpful way to make a better Forge Mode. Maybe your idea will be seen & taken into account. Just imagine…
Ideas for Forge Objects & Architecture:
–Forerunner, Human, or Covenant doors (sliding doors).
–Forerunner objects that actually look Forerunner, not grey, flat pieces of metal.
–More scenery, along with barricades, camping stools, & sand bags, I would like to see trees, water, landscape, & changes in weather.
So, for trees, there would be different types, from ones on Earth, to fictional, alien vegetation (Glowing plants hopefully).
–For water, I would want orbs (They become invisible during actual gameplay) that spawn water in one direction. The water will flow along, but if it’s on a flat surface, it will dissipate. So that’s where the landscapes come in.
–I had an idea for the landscape, where you can spawn different types of landscapes, like dirt covered land, or grass covered. In Halo Reach forge, I noticed the option to change the “shape” of an object (like a wall) but you can’t actually do that. So in Halo 4, you would be able to do that. You spawn the piece of land, & you change the dimensions of it from flat to round. Put many of them together & you can create a landscape small or large.
–For weather, I want special effects like Fog, Snow storm, Lightning Storm, Rain storm, Night, Day, Mid-Day, etc. You can still have the old effects, & you can still combine effects, but I would like brand new Special FX, that give a feel for the map.
Ideas for Forge Weapons & Vehicles:
–I want old weapons from older Halo games in the Multiplayer, along with the new weapons. Only, the weapons from older games won’t be in the campaign, so as to not ruin the campaigns story.
–I would also like what I’ve said above, but for vehicles as well. For new vehicles, I would like a Scarab as well, along with drop ships. You can use all of the dropships turrets, as long as they’re manned by a player.
–Forerunner ships. (small one-pilot craft, or Forerunner dropship)
–I’d like airstrikes as well, only, I’m not sure how it would feel. I play Halo Wars sometimes, & I love Sgt. Forge’s ability to call a Shortsword Bomber, to fly across an area, & drop dozens of bombs. So here are other ideas for airstikes:
–7 sentinels coming & “lasering” the opposing team.
-Hornet with marines on the side attacking opposing teams (Doesn’t use missiles)
–Pelican (With no turret) dropping 7 marines (who are on the Easy difficulty, with assault rifles) to attack opposing teams.
–3 plasma mortars (from Covenant wraiths) dropped randomly on the map by player choice.
–(It’s hard to have ideas for new weapons & vehicles when you don’t actually know what the game is going to have so add more of your own ideas…)
Ideas for Forge options:
__–__Instead of having different Man Cannons (like Reach did) have one man cannon, where you have the option to change the intensity of the force of the cannon. So, you’d be able to lower or increase the speed, & not have to waste time looking for which one is right for you.
–Instead of having so many different sized blocks (like Reach did) Halo 4 forge should just have blocks that are all 1x1 length. There will be more blocks of the same size (way more) but they’d have different designs. My idea is so that you can just change the size, maybe texture, of the blocks yourself. Increase the length, width, height. Make the block thick, or thin. Turn it into a cylinder, to make a pillar. As the size increases & changes, so does the design of the block your using, so no two maps can actually look alike.
–You can still change the color of the lights on the building block, or change the color of the whole building block itself.
–For the special effects I listed above, like Snow Storm, you could be allowed to change the instensity of the storm.
That’s all I can think of for now, so add your brilliant forging ideas (for Halo 4 Forge Mode) here:
