Site Update The Anvil Roadmap - MCCC

Wait, This looks familiar....
​

Recently, we've had some disappointing news regarding Halo infinites future. To lift everyone's spirits over the next 2 months, we are excited to share with you our plans moving forward with The Anvil. Our first season of content and events is called "MCCC" - the Master Chief Collection Celebration. Our goal is to showcase the best MCC has created over the last 3 years. MCC has been widely ignored by the larger community sites for a long time therefore we intend to shine a spotlight on some of the amazing maps and mods that have revolutionised the way players experience Halo. It's also a great way to pay back many of the creators who've stuck by the platform for long. With that said, lets break down some of the things you can expect over the coming months.

THE WIKI​

We want to build a robust and expansive resource to help onboard new forgers and modders. We will be sourcing content and talent from across the community to build a repository of knowledge. If anyone is interested In contributing to this feature, let one of our team know!

MCC MAP & MOD FEATURES​

Over the next few months we plan to Feature 10+ maps and mods from the community. These are the best Halo has to offer and creators who have their Map featured twice will receive a special role in recognition of their work. Expect these to roll out roughly once a week. Our first map feature will be coming soon and is said to be made by a certain breakfast dish...

THE ANVIL UNDEAD​

Whilst we have experimented with forge contests before (glacial contagion anyone?) we will be putting our full weight behind this season's forge content centred on infection. The rules will be announced closer to the time so players have a fair chance. However, forgers may want to start experimenting with gimmicks and gametype enhancements to give their submission the edge.

BIWEEKLY GAMENIGHTS​

In addition to our regular testing lobbies, we want to set up game nights for the community to kick back and relax. If you want to host a lobby for an Anvil game night, be sure to look out for our first announcement in the next week or so!

INVASION MAP PACK​

As older members of The Anvil know, a certain portion of our community has been focused on creating maps for Halo: Reach's "Invasion". Whilst there are still larger announcements to come regarding this, we are pleased to present the roster of maps we have been testing as a community. Expect a deep dive into most of these maps later in October.

BTB SHOWDOWN​

Currently scheduled for Nov 4th, we will be sending MCC out with a bang before infinite forge's launch on November 8th (or so we pray) with a BTB Competition, join together in a team and compete for the prize!...

AND THERE'S MORE...​

We also will working on the following:

• Guides and Articles - We will continue to highlight important news / developments in the community as well as bring you guides to enhance your Halo creations.
• Trophies - Expand the current selection and create unique icons for each. We aim to reward members for continued interaction with the site and discord.
• SIte Improvements - We're always looking to update the site to fix any issues and implement suggestions. We want The Anvil to be the best it can be.
