And why aren’t they in rotation in the first place? If 343 has already addressed this issue please inform me, but I couldn’t find anything.
The reason people say there’s a lack of maps for certain playlists isn’t because the game itself lacks maps, it’s just that there’s three that aren’t even in rotation yet!
Reach had 5 Forge World map variants in rotation from launch, 3 of which were for regular slayer/objective game types and 2 for big team. Erosion, Ravine, and Impact all already have built in map variants, so why can’t we play those in War Games yet? It’s kind of sad to see them neglected. Ccan we get a response for this please?
only in my dreams. I kinda hope they make some forge map playlists. Maybe a ffa forge playlist, btb forge map play list, and a infinity slayer forge map playlist… just some examples.
Why the maps that came with the forge maps aren’t in there right now is beyond me. I like those maps very much… well, not the one on erosion so much but definitely the one on impact and ravine
> They probably aren’t in right now because of the huge fuss people made with forge maps on Reach
I believe he means the maps that you can currently only play in forge/custom There are 3 full maps that aren’t in rotation yet. They badly need to be though because its gets stale playing on the same maps over and over.
> ^^ and now people want them back. Little fuss pots this community is.
Care to elaborate? I can’t remember people having a problem with the default Forge World maps in Reach, and even so the issue is practically unrelated.
If you look at the built in map variants for the 3 forge maps you’ll see that they’re all mostly centered around the pre-made buildings and areas anyways. They’re practically indistinguishable in style from the maps already in rotation. (This is pretty contrary to Reach, where the forge maps were entirely forge pieces.)
I completely understand people not wanting random, crappy forge maps integrated into rotation. However, this is a completely separate issue and right now this problem is really hurting the game.

This is accurate. Playing the same 3 or 4 maps in each playlist is getting really old.
There should be a community playlist with nothing BUT community made maps.
Also Forged maps in Reach sucked because they were totally grey and uninteresting.

Tell me… how many matches have you actually spent exploring the map…?

I actually found AL pretty entertaining (I’m not a very competitive player though)

Why do people think this? I had no idea Reach forge irked so many people. These maps are completely different from Reach forge maps. Each one has a different environment with different landscapes and different themed objects, etc. It’s not at all like the boring, grey Forge World we knew in Reach.
Not like it matters what I say, though. Those maps will most likely be put in rotation sooner or later and you guys will have to learn to deal with it.
Most people fear change. Fear is a natural human response to something new. It can also be quite an annoyance when being expressed as like a fact instead of an opinion.
Forge maps wouldnt hurt or help the game this early on. Its only the start of week 3, so chill out and give 343 some time to tinker with the playlists and do as they please with their baby.
This game doesnt even have a lot of its players yet, and with the Christmas season right around the corner you can be sure there will be plenty of noob pwning for everyone, plus the first map pack is supposed to come in December.
I’m just guessing the people on this thread who are complaining about the forge maps looking bad haven’t actually gone into the new forge maps…
Every forge map now has a few extra pieces unique to each map. Also, there’s no longer the same old grey texture on everything.
Ladies and gentlemen, before you hate on the new maps, please go have a look at them first.
