Halo 4 Getting Free Forge Island Map

4.6
Halo 4 Forge creators rejoice, a new Forge Map with a series of wide open spaces is coming on April 11, it's a free, and it's called Forge Island.

It's actually a series of three islands in one giant open water area. The first island is a very large open space, the other two are medium and small sized. All three are very flat and unobstructed for pixel perfect Forging. Forge Island is compatible with the current set of Forge tools, but it will also introduce some new items into the Forge palette as well.

We got our first look at the new areas today during 343i's PAX East Halo 4 panel, which included a demo walkthrough of a custom-built version of the classic Halo: Combat Evolved map, Hang 'Em High.

Forge Island will be available to download for free on April 11th, just a few days after the Castle Map Pack, which will be available for download on April 8th.

343i also talked about changes coming in its third Title Update to Halo 4. Specifically, the TU will include balancing updates to the Active Camp and Gauss Warthog, but more notably, it will see the return of the "X" marker on the HUD when a team mate is killed.

Halo 3 was best.


I don't know if they will ever beat halo 3.


Not an easy feat to manage if you ask me, Halo 3 was such a good game!


I agree, no halo can beat Halo 3 and 2

It's way different than CoD, so you would have to get used to it. But it is very fun if you can get good at it.


You should halos a great game.


Most of the early halos were good. The recent ones are not so great

PGA Looks like a cool map!

It is also cool that is is free.


Yeah that's what I thought, I was expecting them to charge for something like this!


They easy could have and people would still get it.


Exactly, to be honest they probably missed out on quite a lot of money there if you ask me!
