On what basis, the game hasn't even been released yet. How likely is it that this game can even be modded?

It could be unlocked to research the files extracted from the demo to get an idea on what we could do.

I'd say keep it locked until one person has at least the very basic framework laid down for research. No point opening it if there's no foundation for discussion.

What GTAF said, plus... research can take place without that forum being unlocked, if anyone gets anywhere, they can drop a line in here and I'll unlock it.
Any other opinions on this matter are welcomed.

Honestly I don't see a reason for it to have been locked in the first place...if there's no foundation for discussion then it will just be left alone until there is. That way it will just start being used as soon as it becomes useful.
Unless the reason is to prevent spam, stupid questions, etc.
I don't see it as a big deal at all, I'm just throwing it out there.

Tural: I can tell you what would be posted
Tural: Someone would make a thread 'Halo Wars Beta Modding Research'
Tural: And the next post is
Tural: 'It's stored in a LIVE container, so we have to work around that. The maps are in X format, maybe someone can make a tool for it.'
Tural: Then all of the other posts will just be about the container and non-existent program

I can see your meanings, So someone would have to start research first and have a good base before it will be unlocked.

I removed the gun from the warthog, and painted it yellow, and made it super fast...Then I made the big purple thing on the covvie side shoot nukes...Modding it is easy...I'm Iron_Forge...

That's right, you invented modding.
