I was hoping for an Action Sack gametype that had Fuel Rods, Plasma Pistols, Regen Fields, and Overshields.
Now that really would have been a lot of green!!!
Still, it’s pretty awesome they’re able to make changes like this on the fly.
Thank you 343 
It reminds me of when GOW3 put Pumpkin Heads on players at Halloween! It’s just a nice little Easter Egg.
I’m just disappointed I haven’t been able to get on and play much today.
To be honest, that seems like it’s your fault for expecting something special to happen for St Patrick’s Day. I didn’t think anything would happen, and this little easter egg they implemented is a nice surprise.
I get to let the Irish side of me out on the battle field today!
Nobody was expecting anything special for Paddys day. What they did was just a simple little easter egg type thing.
I’m going to get wasted and splatter a few dozen people with the Ghost.
The funniest way is to boost straight at people and hit the brakes just outside the range of the average grenade toss. A lot of folks panic and jump instinctively when they see a charging Ghost. You just punch it and splatter them when they land.

Yeah sometimes that’s the only tactic that works. It’s hilarious when you use it after a few rounds of Bull vs. Matador! Then you can disembark and -Yoink!- to ecstasy.
What is this about an Easter Egg for St. Patrick’s day? Someone please clue me in…
Typical game forum post.
Developer gives you something they did not have to do, and you complain about it.
Don’t really care about St. patricks day so I wouldn’t be disappointed either way, it is creative what they did to the flood model though.
However, consider your arguments null and void from this point onwards. People keep saying “it takes time and it’s hard to edit playlists”, yet they re-skin models on the fly.

OP makes a holiday themed joke and recieves reactionary corporate cheerleading.

Grifball looks a bit different for example… http://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/games/halo4/filebrowser/details/6867c80c-b354-4b59-9d68-29043e3ddac7
