Matchmaking Forge Maps.

[HuNgOvEr 172]

Are user submitted forge maps ever going to be integrated into matchmaking? If so, does anyone have any idea 1) How one would submit a map, 2) When submitted maps would be available and 3) If maps could be used in all of the gametypes?

i doubt that this will happen anytime soon. I'd give it maybe a year or so. Halo 4 has 10 fresh maps and 3 DLCs are already announced. no need for forge maps at this point

As VE said we have new maps coming in DLC.

 

However there is nothing wrong with a community playlist.

I wish they would.. Feels like I'm always on the same maps. And aren't the DLC's like, spread out across 6 months or something? I don't know the exact amount of time... I was thinking 9 months but that sounded a bit far fetched. Either way, the way people complained about Reach's forge maps, I doubt they'll do much of any user-submitted maps in 4.

I hope they do. I think the problem with Reach's forge maps was that they had way too many power weapons and worst of all they were not meant for the gametypes they were in. So it was a big cluster of power weapons which were not needed. So of course that is probably the main reason people complained. Other than that I liked the forge maps. My friend told me they wanted to have people make stuff with the maps or something like that. I also heard one of their guys say "we are interested in what the community is going to make with forge". I don't know if this means anything or not. Again I certainly hope so as this could make for interesting competition in matchmaking.
