Subject: Why does Forge World always get selected?

I like the forge world and am stoked they are in the gameplay list but why the hell do they get picked 90 percent of the time? I bought the defiant map pack last night and played one of the new maps once pretty disappointing. Wish people selected the regular maps more often.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

It has the best BTB maps. It has the best objective maps. It has the best Slayer maps.

Why shouldn't it get voted for.

Good maps > appearances.

I agree, but a year of seeing nothing but grey takes its toll on you. I'm ready for Halo 4 so I can see colors again. As long as the maps are good, at least.

it feels like your playing the same map all the time though. Nice to look at something different then grey all the time. I do like the maps and like forge but a little variety is always nice.

Next map pack (If there is one.) should have a nice colour palette. IMO, Make one like Halo 3's.

Anniversary playlist = rainbow and particle effects everywhere. Good maps and colors.

^ This - since I started playing CEA the lack of forge world has been awesome. Only issue is lack of population.

Forge World maps are cool and I like what people have done in the custom maps, but put some options for more colors, its all green and silver, its gets so boring it look at. Put a menu to add trees, water, something to make the map look more lively.

Seems like a lot of people are on the same page...so why the hell is it getting selected every single time.

I think it depends on the playlist, for BTB, Arena and Snipers it's definitely all Forge World. For TS and Squad it's a mix.

I mainly play TS and its selected 90 percent of the time.

What maps exactly? I get maps like Swordbase and Countdown a lot in TS

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Forge World was originally going to be somewhere around 7 different maps until they decided "wouldn't it be better if it was just one big playspace?"

So would it seem weird if you got 7 different maps 90% of the time in a playlist? I don't really think so. Forge World is picked a lot for a reason: just about anything can be made on it.

R.I.P. Halo 2 <33333333
Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

Like everyone has said, it has the best levels. Who wants to play Sword base and Crouchdown?

  • 11.22.2011 1:07 PM PDT

Sword base and countdown to get selected but thats about it and the rest are usually forge world.

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.

It's far better than the default maps.

Except Zealot.
