The worst part about it is that you can make a mode incredibly similar in Reach/3. Set Leader Traits and add a Leader Kill bonus. Done. Regicide.

Regicide is more like standard ffa than juggernaut.

I don't think you'll be able to make a map look at good. That's also an example of the one type of map that lines up aesthetically with Forge's palette.
I like Forge, I think it's a cool feature, but it is not something that should house the majority of the MM maps in core playlists. I have yet to play a good community forged map in a core MM playlist in Halo 3 or Reach. Just keep it out of the core playlists.
The summary is your balls are fucked.
Unable to watch the video at work, do they mention or show anything about lighting placement on the maps still? Placeable light sources + dynamic lighting will change so much shit it is ridiculous.
HAHAHAHA I fucking KNEW that was coming
HAHAHAHA I fucking KNEW that was coming
Lighting will help, but boring gray pieces with different lighting are still boring gray pieces just with slightly different shade of gray.
Construct looked fine to me. If they can get Forge pieces looking like that, that'd help a lot. But then you run into the problem of all maps looking like Construct. Heh.

How long have you been a member of NeoGAF? How long have you lurked?
Just approved after months of waiting. Lurked on and off for the past year.
How old are you? What country or state are you posting from? (Optional)
I'm 20 years old posting from the beautiful Sierra Nevadas in California.
How long have you been a Halo fan? Have you played all the games?
That was our first ever Amazon purchase, I was just about to turn 10 at the time. Been in love with Halo ever since then.
What mode do you spend most of your time in?
(i.e. Multiplayer, Campaign, Forge, Firefight, Theater)
I honestly can split my time equally between everything. I love the Halo Universe and am a big fan of the lore. I also enjoy MP (less so in Reach), but I can still find enjoyment there. I consider myself above average.
What is your favorite playlist?
(i.e. MLG, Action Sack)
MLG and Arena as of lately because AAs piss me off too often.
Help us get to know you better. (Optional)
Well the reason I became interested in HaloGAF was because all my friends that I used to play Halo with have moved onto other games (mostly COD). I enjoy discussing all aspects of Halo, and this community seems really diverse.
About me. I'm a baseball pitcher in College, I injured myself in April 2011 and haven't played since. I take baseball very seriously and worked my ass off over the past year to get healthy again so that I can play this fall. Baseball grants me free schooling, so I really couldn't ask for much more.
I am not going to come into HaloGAF and drop Tashi Ceiling jokes, or act like a regular. Just because I lurked that stuff doesn't mean I was a part of it. I will do my best to ease my way in, and get to know you all as myself.
Thanks for your time
My GT is SLT Poison, could really use some Halo playing buddies.

I have not seen it posted here but I think HBO already reported about it. At the end only 1% will care:
"We recently got to pay a visit to 343 Industries and meet up with Franchise Development Director Frank OConnor. We wanted to show him what we were up to lately, so we brought out the first release in our new Mega Bloks Signature Series. Well have more details about this available soon, but for now, feel free to discuss it amongst yourselves in the comments!"

If the set has the same amount of details like Lego's Ultimate Collector Series, count me interested to buy it. I like UNSC Infinity's ship design.

Welcome bro
Yeah, in that everybody is earning points at the same time, but Regicide just creates a singular target that I assume, since people are idiots, players will just throw themselves at like fools.

Suddoth Pokedex is hilarious
Peter Marks was responsible for Hang 'Em High. He passed in 2009.
Damn, dude is a legend then. Crazy how many people appreciate his work and never heard of him.
Only Tashi gets them.

We got ourselves an AR hero. Lol at those guys in the Spartan suits just hovering over the guy's shoulder while he's trying to play.

My guess is that its inside lighting so if the bunker is in a dark area it is still okay to walk around inside.
Obviously we have only seen Unlite Adrift so far, hyped for Adrift with lighting.
I jest but that map is dark bro

Lol I like it.
AWESOME catch
Lol what a gif
Not sure if implying something. Anyway, welcome!
Don't talk about the Tashi ceiling.
I think it's safe to assume he was.
JK LOL BRB
I ain't got no problem killing dudes in the dark brah.
No but srsly, I have a feeling Adrift isn't going to feel nearly as dark as the feeds suggest when you're actually playing.

Just randomly flipped to the stream a few minutes ago, they are play "Horse" in Reach. Why do people like this, it's incredibly uninteresting.

I might buy this.
But I don't know if I can buy megabloks. It goes against everything I ever knew.

They just took 15 straight minutes to set off some explosion by bouncing a grenade launcher shot. Just like the Horse demo in H4 today, that shit was terrible.
Yeah I'm trying to figure out if it's just a combination of melee as the shield runs out and melee's "around" the shield or if melee actually kills the shield.

Well, I guess melee really does go through the shield, that's awesome.

About the new Forge reveal, I think expecting something Far Cry 2ish was a bit excessive, (believe me though, I wanted that and would have loved that!) I still believe it all comes down to how the game engine handles level building. Farcry's engine most likely allowed levels to be built just as they were in the editor that players were granted. I guess Halo's toolset is nothing like that, thus we have Forge in it's current state.
What I will say though, is that since Halo 3 I had voiced my opinion about that lack shadows cast on Forge maps. Sure grey is dull, but a complete lack of proper lighting kills a maps visuals. I was ecstatic with the real time lighting reveal, that will make maps look miles better than Reach.
Now I just await custom coloring and or texturing...

I think, in order to have terrain editing, you'd probably have to take out the multiplayer aspect of forge.
Would that be sorely missed?
