*A vastly improved item palette (see [[Forge objects in Halo: Reach]] for a comprehensive list). Many of these objects are based on existing setpieces of ''Halo'' multiplayer maps, with players able to place down the bases seen on [[Blood Gulch]] or the components that make up [[Ascension]], among others.

*'''Colorblind''' - Available in Classic and Forge 2.0. It makes the map appear grayscale.

*'''Next Gen''' - Available in Forge 2.0 and Classic as ''Gloomy''. It makes the environment have slightly darker colors, thus giving it a bleaker appearance.

*'''Juicy''' - Available in Classic and Forge 2.0. Makes the environment look more vivid, as it increases saturation. This can make the color palette resemble that of [[Halo: Combat Evolved]].

*'''Nova''' - Available in Classic and Forge 2.0. Increases the brightness to a blinding degree. Hence the name.

*'''Olde Timey '''- Available in Classic and Forge 2.0. Applies a brownish-reddish filter as well as VFX to give the illusion of an old film reel.

*'''Pen and Ink''' - Available in Classic and Forge 2.0. Turns the environment to look as if it was drawn with an ink pen.  

*'''Purple''' - Available in Forge 2.0 only. It turns the environment purple, thus giving the effect of nighttime.

*'''Green '''- Available in Forge 2.0 only. It turns the environment cloudy and green. Useful for [[Infection]] game types, as it makes the environment look much scarier.

*'''Orange''' - Available in Forge 2.0 only. It turns the environment dark orange, thus giving the effect of an apocalyptic wasteland or a sunset.

[[Forge objects|Object]] manipulation in Forge 2.0 has been vastly improved.

**[[Asylum]] - A remake of the ''[[Halo 2]]'' map [[Sanctuary]].

**[[Hemorrhage]] - a remake of the ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' map [[Blood Gulch]].

**[[Paradiso]] - A large map built around the island area of Forge World.

**[[Pinnacle]] - A remake of the ''Halo 2'' map [[Ascension]].

*In Forge 2.0, if there is lag during a forge session and a player goes into Edit Mode, a [[Type-52 Special Applications Rifle|Focus Rifle]] icon will appear for a second and disappear and the reticle will go from Focus Rifle reticle to edit reticle and if you're pressing the fire button, the player will emit a short Focus Rifle blast with sound effect for as long as the Focus Rifle reticle is visible. Only that player will see and hear the Focus Rifle blast.
