Not Enough Items!

[DEATHJUDGE 89]

Forge really lacks variety in my opinion. Out of all the items to build with, there is only one forerunner structure and no covenant structures as far as I could tell after exploring all the items. UNSC items get boring after a while. I really think in a future update or dlc that you should add forerunner and covenant structures and items to forge. Halo 3 did it, so why can't you? I find myself disappointed in Halo 4's forge. I was never disappointed when forge was in Bungie's hands. 343 needs to step up and bring out improvements to forge.

 

I'd also like to add that it makes absolutely no sense that I can spawn a ton of golf balls but I can only spawn 4 freaking lights... Golf balls are not all that necessary in my opinion, whereas lights have pleanty of necessary uses. We should be able to use at least 10-20 lights... An update on that would be nice too.

 

How does anyone else feel about this? Feel free to express your thoughts on the idea.

I was definitely disappointed we didn't get more pieces (Level-specific pieces are definitely a nice touch, but didn't go far enough), I was big with Legos growing up and have a distinct appreciation for how necessary it is to have the right pieces to build something truly amazing or special. To some extent I'm most disappointed in the limit on pieces being left so restricted (and arbitrarily so, broken up into pointless categories which limit us unnecessarily), even without different pieces to choose from one can still simply use multiple smaller pieces repeatedly to build larger, more complex objects.

 

Except of course that currently this tactic is costly, burning up supplies and reducing the scope of what can be built. A revamp of this system is long overdo, and thought should be given towards maximizing what we can build rather than pointlessly limiting it.

Exactly my point. For example; there are buildings to which the access to the next level are steps. We are not given any legitimate items to connects to those steps that are a set of steps themselves. All we're given are cylinder staircases that don't go with the actual buildings. We're given a curved wall that doesn't match or reach the same height as the other straight walls. Certain items are pointlessly limited to ridiculously low amounts.

 

I love building things in games. I am a huge fan of the map editor in the Farcry series. Unfortunately, 343 has become a huge disappointment to me when it comes to their forge. Forge to me is lacking everything that it actually needs to stay fun and not repetitive...
