Halo 4 Forge mode detailed

343 Industries has said players will be able to create any design they can think of using the mapmaking Forge mode in Halo 4.

A post on Halo Waypoint said player's creations will only be limited by their own minds.

It read: “The environments will be large enough to accommodate just about any design you can think of, from a Lockout remake to a sprawling racetrack.

"There will be rolling hills, flat, sterile spaces, big, flat indoor areas and everything in between. The difference is that we’ll use more than one environment – an aesthetic – rather than a giant contiguous space like Forge World.

"There will also be HUGE FLAT JUMBO Coliseum “walls” that you can instantly place as enormous floor tiles (or walls). All the spaces are being designed with flexibility and performance in mind.”

Earlier this week Microsoft announced a Halo 4 themed Xbox 360, set to launch 6 November, the same day as Halo 4.
