Will there be sprint in the playlist?
Will there be more pro playlists, like double pros, and free for all pros later on? Will the Pro playlists have true kill behind them?
Is this just MLG renamed?
Will there be camo and overshield on the maps?
Do you win by when you achieve an amount of kills or is it the first to get for example 500 points, where headshots count 10 points and assasination count 15 points?
Do you unscope when getting shot?
Doubt that anyone can answer these questions now, but it’s worth a shot …
Anyway, the playlist sounds good so far.

Pretty much the whole game is 10-15% faster, you move faster w/ and w/out sprint, your weapons do more damage (to my knowledge, the Battle Rifle is now a four shot kill) while the DMR remains at a five shot kill.
EDIT: More questions!
It isn’t just MLG renamed, MLG have always modified the game to make it as competitive, while at the same time, a spectator friendly mode.
I haven’t heard about Camo & OS being on the maps, but since we’ve just learned about it yesterday, we may see more information on it in a bulletin either on Wednesday or in the following weeks before launch.

When did they say the br is a 4 shot? Bravo asks if the weapons do more damage in the video and the guy from 343 says that they don’t. The damage is the same in slayer pro.

Another question, do you win by when you achieve an amount of kills or is it the first to get for example 500 points, where headshots count 10 points and assasination count 15 points?

Well MLG are a separate company who make their own settings so clearly it’s not “MLG renamed” but I imagine it’s fairly close to the settings they will produce (Maps aside).
I’d love to see more playlists like that, but chances are it’ll just be a gametype within those playlists.
And I hope that “FFA Slayer Pro” has a radar in it this time…taking the radar out of FFA because it’s “Pro” shows a complete lack of understanding of why the radar gets removed in the first place…
Anyway, very glad to see that Pro has it’s own playlist. I hope there are at least invisible ranks so I can get some good competitive games with people around the same skill level as me.
heh, maybe well have a blend of AGL/EGL/MLG in one playlist? MLG is probably gonna drop halo. And who knows, maybe with a new name, people will be more open to it.
> Another question, do you win by when you achieve an amount of kills or is it the first to get for example 500 points, where headshots count 10 points and assasination count 15 points?
Just so you know, when you get an Assassination and it says +15 on your screen, that is not for score, that’s telling you how much EXP you just earned for that particular kill.
So in Infinity Slayer, when it is 650 points to win, it is actually 65 kills to win.
So you do indeed need to get 50 kills if it was 500 points to win, headshots and assassinations won’t give you extra score.
A lot of the questions you’ve added to your OP though, are unknown at this point to forum-goers.
