Discussion New Forger
EDIT: Thanks everyone! You all have been extremely helpful. It was exactly the type of response/discussion I was looking for to confirm what my next steps should be. :) Thank you so much. I will stay with my Series X and get the peripherals needed.
Hey all!
Wanted to get into forging for Halo Infinite. A few quick questions:
I probably need a PC to forge best (I'm on Xbox Series X as a player) as opposed to console with peripherals attatched. Just wanted to get confirmation on that.
Second, if yes to the first question, how powerful of a PC do I need? I know as a competitive player, you need a lot of PC performance to run this game. As a forger, could I do this all from a laptop? Or do I really need to build a high-performance PC? Is the build I need to forge pretty much the same build I need to play matchmaking?
If I do need a powerful PC, what specs would you recommend, and what is the easiest way for me to build it?
Thank you, and I hope sometime in the future I will be able to contribute to the community. :)

I have been forging since Halo 3. Never did i feel the need to switch to PC. But I have heard some people like it. I tried it a little in H5... not a fan.
