In this edition of the Musings of the Truth we will take our third and final retrospective look into Forge.Almost immediately after the arrival of the Heroic Map Pack, Bungie began hyping fans for the next epic map installation they ordained the Legendary Map Pack. Only time would tell for eagerly awaiting Forgers whether the new map pack would hold up to the new standards set by Foundry. Unfortunately, these were high hopes. Shortly before the release of the Legendary Map Pack Forging addicts would learn that another Foundry-like map would not be included in the newest map load out. Still, Bungie did not neglect Forge in the latest map pack. Avalanche, Ghost Town and Blackout would contain many familiar Forge objects re-skinned to fit the new maps along with an array of objects unique to the Legendary Map Pack.
Initial community opinion of the maps remained optimistic, but as time went on few quality maps were being released on the new maps. The Legendary Map Pack simply didn’t provide the sandbox Forging environment that the Heroic Map Pack exhibited with its inclusion of Foundry. Today Foundry is still the most popular map for custom Forge Maps. Avalanche, Ghost Town, and Blackout simply cannot compete with the legendary stature of Foundry. Foundry may seem bland at first glance when compared to other maps due to its gloomy color scheme, but it was and still is the most versatile map to date. Foundry offers the most space along with the greatest and best load out of objects compared to other maps. But what about the future - will Foundry remain the king of Forge?

cant agree with you more... some ppl say i have to many time on my hands.. while i have a 40hours a week job and enough friends. the time they spend on their hobbies like playing football etc. i spend those hours on forging. i always liked to make things myself, just like i did a long time ago with the unreal editer that you get for free with UT2003. or making maps for command and conquer (okay that one didnt worked out well for me ;P) or even older, the duke nukem 3d map editer, somebody remembers that one? :) all awsome ways to be creative and do something fun with your emagination. like you said its an art.

How do you kill that which has no life!?

that was amazing. and I agree that that would be the death of halo, just as it was the death of star wars in my opinion. And all you die hard star wars fans don't spam this post because of what I said.
