    Much like Bungie's heralded tradition of supporting incredible content made by the community, 343 has taken upon themselves to rebrand and continue this honorary legacy. Bungie inaugurated this back in Halo 3 under the name of 'Bungie's Favorites', where players could easily find the staff recommendations from the studio. While we still don't have access to an online file browser since everything moved to the cloud, this will not be built into Halo Waypoint as streamlined as it once was in the past. For now you can find all of the staff picks such as 'Reaper' by ChewyNutCluster and 'Flapjack Frenzy' by SplinterBL in the file share of gamertag: 'The343Favorites'.

    FOLLOW GAMERTAG: The343Favorites

    "Once again happy to shine the spotlight on some wonderful community creations. Reaper and Flapjack Frenzy have become quite popular in the studio, and we wanted to share them with you. To play these mini games with your friends, add our gamertag 'The343Favorites' as a friend, and bookmarks the corresponding Map Variants and Game Variants from our File Browser. Enjoy!"

      Speaking of Favorites... Whatever happened to Forge Hub Favorites? There was the selection of maps posted ages ago for December, but nothing ever came out of it. :(

      Those results came in and your map was among the top 3. I didn't post an article because of the holidays but mostly because I didn't want to feature my own map as it won 1st place. ForgeHub is a platform to help share everyone else's work, not our own. I should probably note that our youtube channel holds different ethics on this and often features their own personal material but our overall goal is to provide you with content from the whole community. We will bring back the Community Favorites voting system to the website once it is rebuilt. The site update required everything to be overhauled.

      Don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but sequel isn't spelled 'sequal'.

      Called it mutha-!

      More seriously though, I'm very happy to see this become a thing. I've been hoping they would do something like this as it will reallllllllly help out the customs community. Thanks 343! :D

      P.S. Hopefully/Will there be a more efficient 343 Favorites system upon the release of the file browser?

      I think this should suffice well enough until a fully functioning file browser is put in place. It's nice to see 343 actually promoting community content.

      I don't agree. This may be cool but in no way helps the current file browser. Am I the only one who thinks it's so silly to have to add a GT to DL something. Even the creators of the game have to tell us to add them to look at the favorites?!

      I get what you mean. At least it's better than MCC at the start lol

      Hopefully a file browser comes soon...

      This might help put an end to all the random messages I get about how to DL my map. Man I miss having a proper file share.
