Really sucks to see my content stolen yet again and to have been made more popular than what I had originally produced. In case you didn't know, I made the map Oracle, it was stolen and repurposed into a Firefight map. If you see "Arbiter Firefight", that's mine, not his.
343 releases a remake of The Pit with neon coloring
Community - Gross! Give us the dirty, dingy Pit we know and love!
343 releases a remake of Plaza that is dirty and dingy
Community - Gross! Give us maps with more color and variety!
audio FX is missing and i had to personally overlay the VO. Releasing this as it's basically "cut content" at this point, as 343 has scrapped the story
Months of hard work has paid off in a big way!
Check out Harvest in the Squad Battle refresh today! Me and the guys have worked very hard since August to make this map a reality.
Hope you guys enjoy it 🙏🏻
Had a successful playtest for Harvest last night over at
@HaloFunTime
! We are finally nearing the finish line for release.
Things to work on:
Player Containment
Reflection Pass
Lighting Pass
Weapon Rack Spawning/Channels
Complete Skybox
Nit-picky art stuff
We're so close!
This is all well and good but if I had a dollar for every time I have heard "the team is aware" of an issue, I'd be a very rich man. The blog that Uny is referring to is from Season One outcomes.
Season. One.
Season One ended in May of 2022.
Harvest has officially been recommended by 343! What a huge honor!
Harvest would not have been possible without these fine people: tiiiiiiim7, LudoHT, MikRips, LackHoves, and HandsomeHuber!
Huge thank you to all involved and everyone who helped playtest it!
The remake of Halo 4's BTB map "Longbow" is finished! This map is scaled and set up for Halo Infinite's 12v12 BTB.

Work continues on Harvest.
Today I updated and fixed a bunch of lighting issues as well updated the colors and textures of red side.
Here are the new screenshots to compliment the new lighting!

Take a quick drive through Harvest (WIP)!
The map is coming along beautifully, really starting to see some parts come together. Tiiiiiiim7 is still working on blue base art while I work on the smaller details and skybox. Stay tuned for more updates!

The Forge AI toolkit is nothing short of astounding. The Forge team and Campaign AI teams have hit it out of the park. Thank you so much to 343 for enabling creators to keep making our visions come true. I haven't been this excited since Infinite was first revealed.
Firefight KOTH has been added to Harvest!
The latest version of Harvest has revamped lighting, Firefight support, and player containment. Hop in and enjoy!

Thoughts about Season 4 after spending a day with it
- BattlePass is good. Not a fan of HazMat but the coatings and MK7 stuff is good
- Forest might be the most beautifully detailed map we have seen in a Halo game and it plays well to boot
-Haven't played on Scarr yet :/
-…
I like Infinite's standard BTB, but man is Squad Battle a huge breath of fresh air. Just goes to show how streamlined the original BTB (2001-2020) was. Halo 3 maps play really well with Infinite's sandbox, in my opinion. Cant wait to see what else this playlist brings!
Things that have been confirmed for Season 3
-Mirage Armor Core
-Chimera Armor Core
-Shroud Screen
-Bandit Rifle
-1 New Arena
-1 new BTB map
-Plaza Forge Remake
-Forge Fixes/Updates
Am I missing anything?
Happy 2nd Birthday to
@Halo
Infinite! While the game has certainly had ups AND downs, I have had more fun than I could imagine. This game has allowed me to express my creativity like no game before. Thank you to 343 for turning this game around. 🎉
Clarifying that "Arbiter Firefight" is the stolen version of my map "Oracle". So if you see "Arbiter Firefight", just now that the map it uses was copied from my original version.
Progress update on Harvest.
Foliage is being done by
@Mr_IncrediJon
and the skybox is being done by Lackhoves. Had a very successful couple of playtests this week as well!

Im mad, man. Forgers are constantly beaten down and raked over the coals for decisions made by 343. Blame THEM, not the forgers. Further more, blame the 343 Pro Team and the Competitive Insights Team.
With the launch of Season, comes the first of many projects that I have that are being updated/released!
First up is Hemorrhage Evolved getting a few quality of live improvements.
-Added Water Planes to the ocean and caves
-Replaced player containment with the universal…
Having Smallhalla be added into matchmaking is literally a dream come true. I have been forging since I was 15 all alone when I knew nobody would play my maps on Reach.
13 years later and it is now reality.
Forever grateful to my co-forgers over at
@HaloFunTime
!
Latest walkthrough of Oracle.
Feedback continues to shape the layout. I think we now have a very dynamic and engaging layout that looks and feels more and more like the Gas Mine from Halo 2!
Halo infinite is really in need of community BTB maps. So yesterday I started up on a map based off this concept art. The goal is to get it into match making. It’s gonna be a wild one. Been a minute since I made a pure halo aesthetic, so I’m excited ⚒️
Perilous might be my favorite map in Infinite right now. It has everything, verticality, grav-lifts, skill jumps, a long line of sight for sniping, and it's so visually distinct. Amazing that
@BlazeDillon
was able to fit all of this into one map. Feels very true to Halo's roots.
I like to think of my brother as the "standard" Halo fan. He's been a fan for nearly 20 years but has largely fallen off of Infinite. So, I always like to see what he thinks of the new content and what it'd take for him to return. Yesterday, we played Infinite for hours, from…
Published an update to 'Deposition" last night!
Here are the changes:
-Updated lighting
-Added CTF, Oddball, KOTH, and Strongholds
-Updated the spawning/spawn zones to accommodate FFA modes
-Updated weapon racks to reflect Ranked/Settings

Did a very scary thing and scrapped my blockout for my New Mombasa map. I was very late into the art stage and decided it wasnt good enough. Progress, progress, progress! I think it is looking much better! Changed the road pathing, adding TWO new buildings!
@Surasia_
Not only that, but their most recent map (Elevation) was riddled with issues that *never* would have passed with community forge maps. It was a real hit in the balls.
@Unyshek
Thanks for the feedback
@Uny
! I did not played ranked in H3 so I wasn't aware of those varieties. was just speaking to Infinite's ranked playlists. Appreciate the reply
The blockout for Harvest was made utilizing a test version of the F2BP. I cannot speak highly enough of the people who worked tirelessly on this project and the product they created.
I was able to recreate Harvest with painstaking precision and accuracy.
We've revived the "Forge bot" and it's better than ever before! With the B2FP you can build out your map in Blender with Infinite's Forge assets and then "print" them to Forge with pinpoint accuracy. This is a huge tool for map remakes and allows for a Blender blockout workflow.
The maps Harvest and TimberLand Evolved returned to the Squad Battle playlist via a backend update today. Both maps feature the following modes: CTF (3 Captures), Land Grab, and Slayer.

Some beauty shots of Oracle. Tiiiiiiim7 and I have been working on the smaller details for the past few days after a 2 week hiatus.
- Worked on readability. There should be a blue side, a purple side, and mid is yellow.
- Also starting to add some story elements: this gas mine…

@MikRips

@Surasia_
Forge Team and Playlist team have been stellar to work with. As always, the issues listed above are usually related to higher-ups fucking up the pipeline and ruining the content cadence on the game.
Check out Undergrowth by
@VidGamesPete
and BlupeVave! This map was too beautiful to let bad performance get in the way. Thanks to Pete for letting me help!
HUGE shout-out to
@scrubulba
for fixing the lighting on Undergrowth!! This should reduce performance issues anyone was running into.
I can't say enough about his help and appreciate all the time he spent on it.
Take a look at the first art/foliage pass for my Hemorrhage remake! Shoutout to both Virus and Doctrine for helping out with the finer details and foliage, this map wouldn't be half as good without their help.
