    What will happen to Forgehub in a year or two when not many people play Halo 3? Will it transform into a different forum, a different halo game (the next one possibly), stay the way it is and add on the new halo game, will it be sold to someone else, or will it be totally abandoned? Post your opinions on what it should become and post your thoughts on what it will become and why it will become whatever you think it will become. PLEASE DON'T SPAM.

    Forgehub will live on, it will branch into other games. As far as a couple years down the track I am unsure but Forgehub's future seems promising.

    Okay thanks for your input but please don't spam. I want the reasons why you think it is going to end, etc. Changing it to a different language (French, I think?) doesn't help me one bit.

    I will really never quite on Halo 3! I'm a crazy first-person shooter fanatic! (I still play Quake 3) I believe the variety of things you can create on forge, and what you can do on multilayer will still keep this game one of the #1 played games in the world for a year or too.

    And about ForgeHub, I believe it will always be alive, although its popularity might go down, but we live in NOW, and currently it's getting more members then it has ever, ot atleast it seems...

    Every good thing must come to an end.

    AN ALPHA AND AN OMEGA.

    Umm...okay. Everything good thing must come to an end, yeah, that is kinda obvious but for ForgeHub will it come to an end after halo 3 or after some other halo game? ONCE AGAIN, please elaborate. And what do you mean by an aplha and an omega?

    Oh man, I can't believe i'm going to actually have to explain this to you.

    Even if somehow, we get Forgehub to switch over to some other game, we'll have to change the name to whatever the map editors name is (right now, it seems to point towards Far Cry 2's editor) So we'll have to change the name of Halo Discussion, to Far Cry Discussion and so on and so forth. We'll have updates for Far Cry, instead of Halo and the name along with everything else will die.

    No matter what you do, Forgehub will die one time or another.

    Anyway:

    I would say that the forum will slowly start declining, then it will change to a different Halo game and boost back up to it's former glory.

    I disagree when you say that nobody will be playing Halo 3. It will still be played often, because of Bungie's kindness to their fanbase. Maybe not as much, considering the extreme amounts of major games coming out soon. But it will still be played often. This is also because of the map packs for it that will come out, which is expected to be much more than the amount of DLC that Halo 2 had, and Halo 2 had plenty of DLC. Replayability, if you wanted it in one word.

    Since there are no options that state that Forgehub will stay as it is, besides grow, I cannot vote in this poll.

    You forgot two options on the list.

    1. It will get over-runned by idiotic little 10 year olds.

    2. It will collapse under it's own weight and cause a dark hole destroying the world.

    On the list I chose abandoned.

    This thread might make a good debate.

    No, as you can see ForgeHub will live one, and the next Halo game is bound to have forge in it also.

    You guys, Forgehub should branch and grow like another part of the forum Far Editor or something... It just seems like a waste of time and effort.

    I actually didn't say that no one will play it. I personally will play it forever. What I actually said was not many people will continue to play it. Kinda like halo 2. We have halo 3 now. And soon another halo game. DUH.

    True, 10 year olds are annoying on this site and they are our more frequent members but I'm sure mods will get their keyboard out and click perma-ban more often. And the second reason is silly, I go for global warming lol.

    Forgehub will live on for at least 2 more years. You can't say that not many people will play halo 3 in a few years because they did with halo 2. Besides, Bungie is already working on new content like map packs that will keep our forgers ever more entertained.

    well i do admit the fact that if it wasnt for Forge,
    i believe halo 3 would have died already.

    its Forge, not the map packs, that has kept it alive (imo)

    we'll see.

    I know what you are saying because people will forge maps for friends to play on (whether they suck or not) and they keep playing the game, they keep getting the urge to play halo more. And Bungie does have a pretty strong connection with a lot of players because of everything they do to improve and stuff. Halo 3 will live on forever.

    Well XForgery, formally known as Halo3Forgery, already added whole sections for Far Cry 2.I say that forge hub could live a long life,but I still expect a longer life span from Xforgery, though its a smaller community, then this.

    Type in farcryhub.com in the address bar, it brings you to forge hub, but everything is far cry. It has all the members and the same shoutbox but it has all far cry topics. That will keep fh alive even though halo is better than far cry.
