More Grenades?

Frags, Plasmas and EMPs - I wonder if this will be it for grenades for Halo4. Potentially there could be 4 grenade slots just like in Halo3 or even better in my eyes there could still be a limit of 2 grenade slots but it is possible to swap Frags and Plasmas out for a whole host of other grenades. Maybe Flash bangs, Spike Grenades, incendiaries or even we could see the triumphant return of Equipment just now as kinda tactical grenades. After all 343 are massively expanding the loadout options for Halo4.

It’s been confirmed that there are 4 grenade types. Hopefully one that tracks someone and does frag grenade damage or something like that.

Here is some EMP gamplay for those may have not seen it yet.

I hate the fact that people still start out with 2 grenades, every game of reach might as well be a game of Bomberman.

Definitely would be cool…but alas, there is no flood in Halo 4. Besides, I don’t think that the prometheans would want anymore flood.

Then imagine if there were 4 genade slots in multiplayer. Dear God! Surely not. This is why I think grenade swap outs are the way to go + this opens the door to more than 4 grenades.

Quite so my good sir… quite so…

I hope the spike grenade comes back, it was such a fun grenade. I doubt it’ll come back but still.

In the pre-beta footage the hud shows 4 grenade slots but this does not neciseriy rule out more than 4 grenades and grenade swap outs. Also there may be additional options for grenades in custom games like maybe number of grenade slots 0-4, grenade count per slot ect. Showing the 4 slots footage could just be a clever miss leading rouse pre-empting a reveal. At least I hope so. 2 x 4 grenades each with its own delegated slot would in my opinion be disappointing, unimaginative and bad for gameplay.
