A few months ago Frankie said there will be a larger map which is a mix between blood gulch and waterworks. From what I’ve seen none of the maps shown have reminded me of either of these maps (aside from Valhalla, which is a coagulation predecessor).
So do you think it will be BTB or CQC? And what about the two new forge environments?

A while back Frankie said that Halo 4 would ship with 10 maps and 3 forge environments that are NOT part of those 10 maps.

You got it all wrong.
Ther is ONE unannounced MP map, and TWO unannounced forge environments. The forge environments are not counted as Maps.

Yes, but if he said THAT, there should be a source to it. Like a post on Neogaf, or a video interview, or a text interview, or a bulletin… OTHERWISE we may be shooting ourselves in the foot here, thinking there are X amount of maps left, when there aren’t.
I’ve seen the snowball effect of someone saying Frankie said something, and it becoming common knowledge, and then people are misinformed.
For example: Valhalla remake. It was ‘common knowledge’ that Halo 3 maps wouldn’t be remade. So the reamke for Halo 4 was obviously going to be something from Halo 2 or CE. Now that the remake has been revealed to be Valhalla, a lot of people are confused, thinking 343 lied to them…
When in reality, it was a forum user taking a statement OUT OF CONTEXT. So, I just want to make sure that isn’t happening again. So a LINK to Frankie saying there will be 10 maps AND 3 forge environments, would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.

If I was describing Exile in terms of aesthetics Blood Gulch is the first map I would think of. Exile is a donut btb map just like Waterworks, both maps have squared humanish styled bases with turrets on top, also the neutral banshee spawn location is semi-reminiscent of Waterworks Banshee spawns. I could understand someone using Waterworks when describing Exile. And yes I have played Waterworks plenty.

Do you have a link that where they say that there is 10 maps not including the 3 forge world maps. I keep hearing people say this but I don’t remember 343 every saying this. Are you sure the 3 forge world maps aren’t part of the 10 total maps they were talking about.
