would you expect a new forge like gameplay where you make a map and place other sorts of spawn points like grunt spawn points and brute spawn points to create your own eather Campaign like gameplay or a survival mode?

Were it so easy. The AI in the campaigns are designed specifically for the senario they are in. Its not like theres some general AI program that will allow a grunt to fight at full strength no matter where you drop him in forge. A grunt that is running around screaming at the end of Crow's Nest is very different from one that is attacking you at the beginning of the Storm.

It would take a lot of effort to make bots for forge, and in the end, they still wouldn't be all that much of a challenge. I'd rather they focus on turning the Halo 3 Forge Map Editor into a Halo Reach Map creator.

It was quite epic how they adapted Forge from it's humble purpous of simply editing weapon and spawn placement on a map into a map creator with foundry and sandbox, but forge could be much much more.

hmm... i guess i never thought of scenerio playing a vital role in AI interactions before...

and changing it from editor to creator isnt much of a challange either. they simply just need to set up enough items to create differnt enviornments and then a sandbox like skybox to support the map
