Top Forge Creators Leaving Halo Infinite Due to ‘Insufficient Support’

Sure, here’s the rewritten article:

So, here’s a twist in the saga of Halo Infinite. The Forge Falcons – a really popular team of mapmakers – just decided to call it quits. Like, they up and left because they’re feeling kinda ignored by Halo Studios. It’s like throwing a party and forgetting to send them an invite. Weird, right? They’ve made some of the coolest stuff in Forge mode, the kind of stuff that makes you go, “Whoa, this ain’t just your standard map.”

Now, Forge has been around since Halo 3 dropped it on us back in 2007. But it only hit Infinite last year, in 2022, and man, it’s been a lifeline, probably because Halo Studios slowed down on cranking out fresh multiplayer maps. So, the community – folks like the Forge Falcons – stepped up. Imagine building playgrounds in a virtual world while the devs chill. Crazy, but that’s what happened.

Among these creators, the Forge Falcons stood out, crafting wild experiences like that Inheritor battle royale mode. Now, I don’t even play battle royale, but I heard it’s intense. Oh, and they did a Call of Duty: Zombies thing too – “Survive the Undead” – plus a “Helljumpers” mode. Yeah, they were on fire. And yet, despite all these contributions, Halo Studios hasn’t really given them a pat on the back or anything. It’s like someone’s taken their sandwich and not even bothered with a “thanks.”

The Forge Falcons said this whole deal felt like a one-sided relationship. They posted this long rant on Twitter – yeah, Twitter, where things get real dramatic. They mentioned not even getting a “sincere thank you” while their work gets blasted everywhere for Halo’s promos. That’s gotta sting, even if they weren’t expecting cash. Other Forge folks have apparently left too. If you ask me, it’s like baking a cake and someone else cutting a slice before you even get a taste.

So, what are these guys doing now? Shifting gears to Fortnite of all places. Epic Games seems to have this Island Creator Program that’s more rewarding. Honestly, who doesn’t like a bit of reward for their hard work? Meanwhile, Halo Studios continues its mysterious silence – maybe they’re too busy with what everyone’s whispering about: a Halo: Combat Evolved remake. Fingers crossed it’s not just a rumor.

Anyway — wait, what was I saying? Oh, yes. If Halo Studios doesn’t start giving credit where credit’s due, they might find themselves without any mapmaking heroes left. And, honestly, that’d be a real shame.
