I'm just wondering what other people think about this, because I know that Bungie was trying to show that you can make great maps in forge, but I was hoping that they would have lots of very detailed maps in Reach. I'm just wondering what other halo fans thought about this.

i completely agree i would rather them make maps not using forge. i also dont like how they took the easy way out like call of duty and used campaign areas. <what moron thought of tht in the first place

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

It was the other way around. They built the maps first then pasted them in the campaign. They've said that multiple times.

I'm getting quite annoyed with these new maps they put it. They make half the gameplay that you should enjoy in most games go horribly down.

Eden Minor I think is the name, that map is ridiculously horrible!

They played just fine to me. It's not like you would whine any less had they not appeared in the Campaign.

lol not whining dude just my opinion. Im sure you dont like everything in the world.

Detailed maps takes up time, money and people. Forge however can be made with just one person and a controller. The community would also -blam!- at the lack of community maps of course.

i agree that forge is easier to use, im just saying that i was hoping for more artistic and detailed maps. It is definitely true, though, that everybody either complains about the lack of community maps, or that there are too many. Also, i dont like the gameplay of alot of the new forge made maps in slayer, although Abridged is pretty fun.

Yep.

But as far as most players are concerned, they may as well have just taken spaces from campaign, as the artists were still limited in the environments they could create by having to shoehorn it into the campaign. Reflection, for example, almost got cut until it was shoved into the campaign.

Bungie has admitted that it was a mistake though, and that if they could do it again, the multiplayer maps would have been separate from campaign.

Bungie seems to pick maps that are avg. at best. I find better maps at Forge Hub all the time.
