LMAO. Priceless doz1z.
Oh I gotcha. Thought you were talking about fonts or something.
I kinda like the curved UI. Looks like the inside of a helmet. /shrug

Thinks the Evil Empire is just misunderstood.
I'm believe the vehicle UI wasn't finalized until after the E3 build was locked, so I'm pretty sure what you saw today wasn't completely functional.

I actually agree with this, while some of it was impressive, it did look VERY Reachy.
Looks like it's made for people who only have a little stump to aim at their kinect.
I have my doubts that he is a "young man".
I'll calm down tomorrow and shit on Halo 4's Forge in more detail then. Right now I'm jsut diasppointed with raage./

But Frank said that the UI in the Forge demo was definitely 100% final gold locked... Or was it the opposite of that? I can't remember so I'll just assume the worst-case scenario.

Ah, I thought you were talking about stuff from the MP gameplay. The Forge demo was on a different build so, yeah, Frank is correct.

I'm with Over on the UI talk. Don't like the look of it at all. I also think 343 could've done way better with the forge reveal than they did today.

He did not say "my" but "by"
Over will be the first to hump the Halo 4 disk on release day.
Spec Ops with 3 second button delay, yay 343
I'm relatively not drunk right now.

True. He must have cancelled something by pre-ordering the game! But what did he cancel?

I think alot of it was down to the green map with the bloodgulch base. I think you can only evolve forge so much before it has to have a serious upgrade. Honestly with the work 343 are putting into campaign, spartan ops and multiplayer Im surprised we even got a update to reach forge which at a purely functional level was already pretty amazing.
While i was not blown away by forge 3.0 the additions particularly dynamic lighting, magnetism and duplication are very welcome. Would I of preferred terrain editing? sure. However I was under no illusion something like that was going to become a reality its a monumental task and given what 343i is doing its almost beyond expectations.
We still have no idea about the other 2 Forge Environments id bet one of them is very vibrant and colourful something set aboard a covenant ship would be perfect but requiem as a location has a huge list f possibly locations if its even half as diverse as a halo ring.
I'm content but not blown away, ultimately Forge and Theater are just fluff if the Campaign and Multiplayer are up to par then I'm a happy bunny
UI and Forge change gameplay completely. Good idea.
Good one.
I can't link YouTube videos here on my phone, but how about you copy this "why you heff to be mad" and paste it YouTube search.
You are a little bit overreacting Overdoziz. Things are not even final. I learned to not rage about games anymore. You should try it, too.
I have to watch everything tommorow, so I don't know if it is that bad.

Forge was one of the few things that kept me hopeful and now I see it's just Reach's Forge with better lighting, fuck that shit.

Well I'm the opposite. I went from rental at best to preordering. So it's all good.

Even though I've been kinda negative on some things today (particularly the UI), I'm overall happy with what I've seen today. Longbow looked awesoooome.

But you forged a great map using those reach tools.
Expect too much.
Get let down
Cry about it
The bad UI and Reach Forge convinced you? Good for you I guess.
Have we gotten any confirmation that the menu UI is final? I know Reach stayed the same as in Beta, but IIRC Halo 3 was quite different. Today has probably been some of the best news since before E3 even, but man I cannot imagine anyone enjoying that UI. Perhaps someone who has never played a Halo game.

No the gameplay did. I liked what I saw forge wise too other then all grey again. But the additions they added have gone a long long ways towards making it better. Also UI isn't the greatest yea but it's not the worst I've seen either.
And now Over has stepped from cute to a complete moron. Attention whore to the max I guess.
IMO and I dislike the UI.
