Hey everyone.

Today's news sadly isn't great at all. The staff and forum members (the ones still there) have agreed to put HFO on hold for the moment. There are various reasons for this decision, from getting sick of the game's engine to lack of support. However we will pick this mod up at a future date if a suitable engine comes along, or until we can find the right staff.

We are however still continuing with other projects in the meantime and would love people that want to make mods to come talk to us and join our community, it isn't just about Halo mods. At the moment we have Abyssinian's Halo mod still in production and a couple more on the design table. Please come visit us at Ascendancystudios.com we are always looking for more members and modders!

Until next time,

Ds signing off.

Well it's not like we'll be gone for good. We are still looking through different engines, I'll gladly take suggestions and have a look into it.

So... You'll continue on this mod, but it will be on a different game?

We'll eventually continue on this mod, perhaps for a different game and perhaps still for EaW. Right now, we're lacking staff to continue though.
