FORGE ISLAND: A DISAPPOINTMENT!

also who cares what the forge community has to say, regular players like us are the real forge community.
forge island was so bad that theres no way im getting the castle map pack unless theres an exp bonus or something.

Definitely somewhat true. Halo already has a large, dedicated forge community. And Forge island doesn't really draw too many new people into the world of forge. Maybe with the new green screen, but still meh.

I still think Kaz is hitting this on the head. H4 and the 360 could only accomplish so much. When you look at everything H4 Forge has, it's still an improvement and the limits of what the console can do are haunting them. I'm making the prediction still that H5 Forge will blow us





Away.

lol? It was the Forge community that asked for Foundry. For Sandbox. For Forge World. And now they asked for Forge Island.

They asked for a large open space. They got what they asked for, and people who are complaining about it have no right to complain. If you aren't a forger who frequently uses Forge or makes maps, then 343 wasn't trying to please you in the first place with Forge Island. Non-forgers are not the target audience for the map, so duh, of course you're disappointed.

Have you seen the custom games already made on Forge Island? Many things that have never been possible before are now being done.

And about Foundry. There is a really inflated opinion of it for some reason. It was very limited in size, had lots of map geometry getting in the way, and as soon as Sandbox came out nearly everyone moved to that instead. It was good only as a starting map, not as something for advanced forgers to be able to create truly creative and unique maps.

The trees alone make me excited for all the Slender gametypes.

Halo 4 sucks plain and simple Ugly armor, call of duty like gameplay, tiny maps, and there story did not connect at all with any of the older halos besides bringing back Master Chief and Cortanna they made Halo not halo. They should just change the name because Halo 4 isnt Halo and Halo Reach and Halo 3 will always be the "Definitive Halos" but I will give 343 one last chance at Halo 5 on xbox one if that sucks then I'm done with Halo Simply and I will just play Bungie's Destiny Game in hopes of it being more like the real Halo. I like this community its awesome but I do feel like the community could burn brighter on Halo Reach since on Forge World there is endless room to have Milsim scenarios. But I know that the Leaders will never rewind back to Halo Reach since there set on always moving forward I just wish they would admit that Halo Reach is better for FC. :/ But thats my opinion

Halo Reach was not well liked, and forge world had its limits. I agree completely on the quality of H4 as a whole. 3 was my favorite, but Reach was a superior game compared to 4.
5 makes master chief look like a bitch. Going on some existential quest to save cortana.
ALL OF MC'S FRIENDS ARE DEAD. He gives NO FUCKS.
His virtual Girlfriend who has only been around for less than 2 years (Total amount of time she spent in his head) dies, he goes into the desert aimlessly looking for a way to save her.

343 I am Disappoint.

That's a lot of speculation for a teaser trailer. We don't have any idea what Halo 5 is gonna be about.

[VerbotenDonkey]

They said that teaser wasn't Halo 5.

And Halo 2 was the be-all Halo, sorry guys.

[bl4yze]

No one even plays Halo, Halo Reach was the best and CoD is the best

[Rokkman X]

If it was more polished I would agree with you Donkey. The clan system was awesome and they should bring it back.

You guys all sound like you know what you're talking about except Mythonian.
