Again, why no Grifball playlist?!?

I just watched the gameplay for Grifball and it looks really, REALLY good.

You can throw the ball and there looks like a lot more team dynamics built into it. It looks like a vast improvement from Reach.

I really think a mode built so long like that should be featured in MM.

How do you know that there will be no Playlist in Halo 4?

Frankie said it on NeoGAF i made a thread about it months ago

Yeah that and do you ever get tierd of complaining Ken? Because you have a history for that…

Sometimes i think people make threads just to get attention and get their posts up. :frowning:

Attention? lol

I really think it is amazing that a mode improved so much for multiplayer game will not be in MM.

There are a lot of things in Halo 4 I like and things I definitely don’t like. I am simply voicing my views on what I like and don’t like just like you all voice about things that you like.

I am a little confused how because I have a different opinion than some of you that I am making threads for attention or to “boost boost count” when I really don’t care. 9There is nothing anyone gains by having a high post count and I don’t care enough to want one on this site).

But I feel I should voice concerns and see if people feel the same way and I want to understand why people like something the way it is. The new Grifball looks epic and has a lot more focus on teamwork. I don’t know why anyone wouldn’t want it in MM to always be able to play it at will or let people who enjoy it always have the option to play it.

Except a signature. =)

TO: Definitely agree with you here though, why spend time making the cool additions if they will not be featured in Matchmaking.

That was off-topic and rude.

I actually agree with Mr Ken. Grifball looks amazing enough to warrant its own playlist at least.

I preferred it as a weekend playlist, I probably don’t have a good reason for the preference but I still preferred it that way.

I really don’t think a single gametype should have its own playlist. Have it as a regular in a certain playlist, but don’t dedicate a whole playlist to this.

Probably because they can’t find a way to make Grifball canon into the Spartan training hu?

Its in MM it just doesn’t have its own playlist, why should an objective game have a seperate playlist from the others. Should oddball,assult, and CTF have their own playlists as well those are pretty awesome gametypes so I should be able to play them at will any time I want based on what you’re saying right?

The lunchtime playlist?

The Franky Neogaf post has most likely just been misinterpreted.

> “Also, if we supported Grifball, it would not be a playlist.”

Should probably be read as “…it would not be just a playlist.”, meaning that they are giving it its very own gametype in Halo 4 instead of using an assault variant as in previous Halo games.

Do you have any proof?

Yea, I realised this as soon as I posted and I edited my post to reflect this (though not soon enough apparantly haha)

Sorry, it just irks me when what I believe to be misinterpretations are passed off as hard facts and this in turn made me forget to be careful not to also pass off what I say as hard fact.

It’s OK, and I really hope that is the case.

My bad. Guess I’ve missed it.

Could it have something to with how it was often used to boost?

In fact, I was once invited to a party where everyone was getting ready to boost on grifball, setting up guests and getting a full team set.

Grifball just doesn’t work well as a playlist. It should be a regular in some other community playlist, like an Action Sack or weekend stuff.

Grifball isn’t going to be in actual multiplayer? Killjoy
