Extraordinary! by Haji1
Come on guys, you know this is wicked. Halo 3 forge was an win, but comparing to this? I jizzed my pants.
Ya, really.
This is epic, I can't wait to build all these new buildings. Now its much easier to build, a lot funner and all that.
I thought Forge world would be some kind new version of Forge, like not really a HUGE map. Its amazing how they made this. Different terrains, Snowy spots, spring spots, a Metal room, and who could forget, the rock that is based off Assension.
I can't believe they did this. Its not bad, its amazing. The fact new items and how big it is, makes it really fun to build with your friends and make epic new maps at your bidding. And really, I can't explain how epic it will be. I looked at a few composed maps by bungie, and said, "Whoa..". I'm happy that they made this. You can pick the worst spot in the WHOLE level, and still make the best map you can possible make in halo. "If you got the talent, you can build it."
Normally I can't wait for games Campaign's (e.g. Halo 3) but this, this is just great. I can't wait to do the following: Get a Highscore on firefight, get golden Onyx on Multiplayer and completely make an epic map in Forge world. Race tracks? Nah. Capture the flag? Nah. King of the hill and a warthog is the hill? Oh yeeeah. This, is extraordinary.
Come on, who doesn't like that? You are with me, I know that for sure.
Of course. Normally in Halo 3, you would actually mess up on your map TONS of times. Its a 50/50 chance, because of the well, not so accurate system. Now that they made new functions and a steadier aim, you can now build maps much easier. Pssh, Halo 3? Screw that Forge mode, I'm off to Forge 2.0!

Yeah, you're maybe saying "Well obviously, they made halo, they're obviously will be good at making maps" if you watched the Forge World ViDoc fully, then you can notice that you can build that too. Just believe. Yeah, thats right, I can fly.

Snip, snip, Snipe!

Falcon Punch by Haji1
The new UNSC falcon vehicle looks fun. Driving will be hard if you're new to Halo, you may bump into a few things if you never drove a Hornet in Halo 3 before, I can tell by the looks of it.
But whats really grabbing my attention is this game type + this Vehicle.
Invasion, go through Phases, as the defenders try to defend, those Phases. Invaders have to go through certain Phases so they can unlock the core, and steal it and if the Invaders are Spartans they take it to their pelican, if the invaders are Elites they take it to their phantom. How long do they got? Each phase is 4 minutes. Yep, I said 4 Minutes.
New Invasion maps are shipping on the game other then the Beta only map. Boneyard. This one is called Spire.
They're kinda like control towers, say it as that.
If you are defending or Invading, if the core is unlocked, thats when the MAJOR fun happens. You get tons of reinforcements, like Warthogs, wraiths, Tanks, Falcons, Banshees etc. Which I think Invasion is a great, fun Idea.
In this video you see a gunner, in the falcon. Come on, you know you want to shoot people using that. Some what, it reminds me of BBC2, or Call of Duty. But this is obviously better then both those games in my opinion. It seems more fun now that you can shoot a turret, other then the Hornet in Halo 3 only the driver can shoot gunners. And all you got to shoot is your weapons.

UH-144 FALCON:
The UH-144 is a versatile, transverse-rotor multipurpose utility helicopter. Two Falcons can transport a fully-equipped infantry squad faster than any previous system, and provide overwhelming support fire, in most weather conditions.

What do you think about the Falcon? Looks cooler then a Hornet to me. Looks more fun then a Hornet to me. Imagine it when you are in a 4 player Campaign.
