Bungie's taken Forge way above and beyond the Halo 3 variant for Reach as they show in this brand new vidoc from Comic Con.

•  Most of the advanced Forge techniques from Halo 3 are now built in features- geomerging, etc.
  
• One huge playspace to Forge on- bigger than anything we've seen before
• Snap to grid and more precise placement options- place objects by degrees and units.
• Can now rotate camera around pieces without dropping them
• Add details to pieces- e.g. Blue details on blue base.
  
• Several Halo 2 classics shown recreated in there to a startling degree of accuracy- Ascension, Lockout, Sanctuary, Blood Gulch all show up, along with maybe a few others

Forge looks so damn amazing now. I can't wait for this game to come out. Get hype!

So we can expect a remake of every map from the Halo 1-3?

The community is going to go absolutely nuts with this. I'm still baffled at some of the craziness people managed to create using Halo 3's.

Yo, this game is fucking ridonkulous!   

Forge was a pain to use in Halo 3, but Bungie seems to have turned it around in this game. It looks incredible. The community is going to make some truly astounding things with this.

Looks fucking insane.

Fuck. I was already in, Bungie, but now I'm super in.

For all it's many up-a-bit-no-down-a-bit-oh-DAMMIT faults, I loved the original Forge mode. So am I excited about this? You bet your vectors I am.

god damn it, bungie better not fuck this up.*twitching from hype*

Jizzing.

Looks sick. Bungie have really outdone themselves with Forge 2.0; it's going to drastically increase the long-term popularity of this game.

Holy shit there's a snapping feature and better camera controls now! Using forge was so frustrating in Halo 3, but this actually looks like something that's bearable to use.

That's pretty good. I made a couple good forge maps with Halo 3, but this way will be so much easier. Good on Bungie.

Yes! Looks absolutely amazing. Can't wait for all the content that is going to be made for the game. Now, if they would just improve the theater as well...

Awesome

BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD GUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULCH!

Looks awesome but I wish there was some kind of matchmaking for forge maps and gamemodes

PC games make Forge primitive.  PS3 has LBP.  Those are the only two I can think of. "

Holy balls, this game is going to be amazing.

I would have prefered if they made a full map editor but it's better than nothing, something like what Far Cry 2 and Far Cry Instincts did. Yes those games multiplayer weren't as good as Halo Reach imo but there is no doubt that the map maker was far superior, imagine if Forge World was like this.
