Halo Reach Multiplayer and Forge Wolrd Hands-on

Goodies

G4 has another Look into Halo Reach (man I wish I worked at a Gaming Journalist company...hey G4 hirer me pls) and they talk about all the different versions of the game you'll be able to play like Campaign (duh), Multiplayer and all its different Variants and Maps, Firefight and all the new modding you can do to make each play different and Awesome, and last Forge World which is the most addictive part of Halo (for me)

Halo: Reach Multiplayer


Firefight

Since its first Appearance in Halo: ODST, Firefight has gotten a Huge Update with more maps and an "incredibly robust customization option." From what G4 says you'll be able to tweak and turn some many things that it'll take you some time to get the full Firefight experience.

after all they've had to say they throw in a video of them playing Firefight 2.0. At first it look as if they where going to kick much Covenant Ass. but then after about 5 minutes into the game they really start to lose it. Even though they kinda sucked (no disrespect G4), its still nice to see some footage of the match and see the awesomeness that is Halo Firefight 2.0



Multiplayer

Firefight is Awesome but that's not all Halo Reach and Bungie have to offer. Multiplayer is now a must have in any FPS these days and Bungie is no fool. and their not just going to throw in a few redone maps from the Campaign and call it good, Hell no. Bungie Let G4 share eleven maps which 8 are basic: Boardwalk, Boneyard, Countdown, Powerhouse, Reflection, Spire, Sword Base, and Zealot. and the 3 that where made in Forge World: Cage, Hemorrage, and Pinnacle.

And to go with all those maps are a bunch of Game Variants like Assault, CTF (capture the Flag), Juggernaut (Bitch...sorry I could not resist), King of the Hill, Oddball, and Many more of which will be awesome. and of course just like in Halo 3 you'll be able to Edit each and every game mode.


Now that you've seen all the maps why not watch some Game play.




Forge World

If you've used Forge in Halo 3 then you know their some limited things you could do. well that's the good news about Forge World. Bungie has gotten rid of almost every limitation in forge that you would find in Halo 3.

Halo: Reach Forge World

As you can tell from the Picture above Forge World has allot more objects to play with than you could in Halo 3. Not only did they make more objects but they also add more things you can do with the objects. for instance the physics of the objects is one, you can change the physics From Normal, fixed, and phased. Normal is your typical block that obeys Physics like knocking over or making it fall. Fixed keeps it in place and defies gravity. Phased is where you get to have fun, it lets you merge objects (and surroundings) together. i would try to explain it but I'm having trouble with words to do so, so why not just watch the video that G4 got of them playing with Forge World.


Thank you Bungie and Microsoft for the game that's going to take years from me. and Thank you G4 for getting the juicy details and footage of this Epic game.


Remember that I did not go and try any out Halo Reach (even though I wish I did) but that G4 did and G4 wrote the article that I'm getting all my info from. so please go read the original article on their website by following this link
