Sticky-grenades confirmed?

I was reading a post on Neo-Gaf were Franky O’ Connor suddenly beamed in with his laser beam of intellect. Although, this answer was geared to be evasive and unclear, he did mention sticky grenades (something that has not been confirmed yet)

Here is the quote:

“You use a magic teleport power to phase in directly behind opposing players in melee range, armed with plasma nades. The only thing that can prevent this, is a giant mech named MechaKyleJ, which stands around flailing its arms until we get down to freeze frame.”

Here is the source:

I’m pretty sure I am the first to catch this small detail.

Do you believe that this would be considered confirmation of the sticky grenades return?

Because, although not an official confirmation. Franky, would not have mentioned sticky grenades if it’s not something he’s been working with for the past two years…

His entire comment was sarcasm. Take it with a grain of salt.

I know it wasn’t posted in seriousness at all, but, I’m convinced he would not play mind tricks on us by mentioning plasma’s… get real.

I believe it was a slip of the tongue.

Franky, cover your tracks.

It wasn’t a slip of the tongue, he used plasma grenades as a comical reference. It wasn’t an innuendo that alluded to the confirmation of plasma grenades (although I’d be surprised if they weren’t in Halo 4), it was just a phrase.

This is like deja vu, where David Ellis mentioned the 1-50 ranking system in the last podcast as a comical reference, and everyone assumed it was confirmation it’s in Halo 4.

Yes OP there are plasma grenades in the game. Most people have known about this for awhile now though but not because of Frankie’s post though. Just wait till GameInformer though. Since the mods don’t want anybody talking about the leaks from the magazines. But just know that there are plasma and frag grenades in Halo 4.
