Regarding 343’s announcement of the playlists that will come with Anniversary’s multiplayer, my simple question is:
If I stick anyone with a plasma grenade in any of the playlists, will they die?
Yes.
Any of the Anniversary playlists that is. Default remains unchanged so AL can still shed stickies.
yes. even in the original CE you would die from a direct sticky, unless you had a overshield of course.
Under normal Anniversary settings, a stickie grenade will kill you w/o Over-shield.
Since AA and TU changes will be Anniversary (BTB, Squad), stickies will still kill you if you get stuck and going into AL.

Wait, will invis and OS be pickups on the new maps? They had better be only in gametypes without any AAs then–a sprinting or evading dude with OS and rockets would be a juggernaut.

On Anniversary settings, Camo and OS will be pickups. I am pretty sure they won’t be on gametypes with AA, otherwise someone at 343 needs to re learn the definition of balance.
I am just going to stick the pure Anniversary settings without AA just in case.
Yep. As they announced WAY back at HaloFest, with the TU changes, even if you stick someone with Armor Lock they’re screwed.
