There are a whole lot of forgers in the Halo community that have made unbelievable maps. But this is because of the tricks and glitches that the forgers have mastered to make these maps. I'm not saying that any of this is bad or anything. What I am saying is that forge, in my opinion, should have more options and possibilities for novice and beginner forgers who are unfamiliar with all of the advance techniques. What do you think? Should forge stay the way it is or should it become more of a map editor similar to the ones in games such as Far Cry?

I wouldn't want it to become entirely like Far Cry, just some more options like weather and time effects. Entire buildings would also be nice.

I dont forge because i dont want to spend 5 minutes lining two walls up. A few tweeks could have made it alot better for me.

I know. having walls and stuff randomly move around is a pain in the ass

Fact 2: European guys are hotter

I guess I can understand if you don't want to make out with guys in the US if they're so ugly, you should just say so though.

I wonder if you used the search bar?

-BLAM!-

i love forge but i like the forge disigner at forgehub.com where it will let you turn the object like 25 degrees counterclock wise or clockwise.i wish there was a button so that making forts and houses would be sooo much easyer.

I would love a Windows Client for Forge.

I don't know how complicated that they want to make forge editor, but I do agree that I don't want a wall or barrel knocked down when I bring in a container. Also, it would be nice If I literally could bring into a map anything that I can from any other map. I don't want to be limited to just what Bungie or the level designer thinks should be on the level. We all know what can and will work, but for example: look at the level Sandbox. This level pretty much has unlimited possibilities. Agreed that If I threw in a double open container into the map it might clash with the color scheme, but dammit man, I can make it work. Or if I want to have a light changing ball in the level Foundry to make a mod, I want to do it. Also, the money thing, I can live with it or without it. But there are times when I have been working on levels in Sandbox and I have encountered the messages that I have to many items on the map and I still have like 185 bucks left. I don't want to see that. By far, Halo 3 has one of the greatest game engines and "US GAMERS" pushing the engine to it's limits can show Bungie what we can do and what they can do to continue making great games and meet OUR (OUR being the us, the money spending consumer) coming back for more.

I would like to have some kind of handicap when lining up walls so it will automatically line up or something.
