The civil war army's vs. en elite 6 man force discussion is horrible. The posters are clearly children with no military strategy.

- The Civil Army's would win if...
A. The squad tried taking out 3million people with bullets.
B. Tried to snipe and use stealth on 3million people(they would find you eventually from the shots directional impact).
C. Or if the squad took the moronic advice of some kid on a board.

- The Squad would win if....
A. They brought back the battle plans of where the troops were located/going, the majority of them carrying DMT (High yield plastic explosive {a stick of dynamite = a gum ball), with only enough firepower on them to retreat and reform from any hostile aggressors and tried to stay stealthy undetected. They could easily plant charges to take out thousands per blast, yes this would be tedious and take a good amount of time(moving and resetting up), but the equipment needed could be carried on a six man team with the greatest of ease.
B. If you had a time machine(since you would kind of need it for this scenario) you could just stop the war before it began.

Bungie rocks!

P.S. Swat? Unattainable medals in the medal cabinet?

Many of us would love to add a Grifball playlist to matchmaking as a limited time diversion. Once we get through with a few current commitments I will not rest until that happens!

For those of you who are complaining and moaning about Grifball I'll give you some advice - don't play it. Don't read about it. Go play Hardcore, MLG or whatever else you prefer. You need to realize that there are a lot of people who enjoy Halo 3 and they dont all like the same games or rules as you. That's fine - that's the great thing about Halo 3 - it has a lot to offer to everyone and a huge amount of variety. Just because we play Grifball and think it's fun doesn't mean we hate "Hardcore" games nor does it mean that matchmaking is going to turn into nothing but wacky games. There will always be a diverse balance of game offerings and you can always play customs if none of those strike your fancy.

Play it if you want. Don't play it if you don't want to.




Alright, then let's put it this way - stop "stuffing" Griffball into the Weekly Update reader's mouths.
You are literally flowing the page up with Griffball there, Griffball here, it's not possible to not read about it.
I mean: There is no way reading about something that has not to do with Griffball, these days.
I don't want to play it, I don't want to hear about people playing it, but you are making such a heavy propaganda that it's simply not possible to outwit this overflow of input.

what about Spartan Soccer? Is anyone going to start a big Spartan Soccer League?!

I am the Prime Guardian of organized Deception.

I am part of Team oD, a clan who made an appearance in the March '05 issue of OXM, a clan formerly known as FBI who beat the original members of STK in Halo:CE over XBC, a clan now known as Final Boss of MLG...a feat that very few have been talented enough to achieve. We are also a clan who proudly reports cheaters.

This is one of those games that should have its own spot in MM.

All that I am, all that will be of me, is the blood on my hands, the memories of my fallen enemies and my respected comrades.

I wanna play it but I don't have enough online friends.

'Utrinque Paratus' - Ready for Anything

Listen, do you think you guys at bungie could organize an official grifball tournament?

That would be quite some fun. There could be custom medals and everything.

It would be great to have some matchmaking . . . I couldn't put together a team today. It was a total WABO situation.

Who wants to play?

Just do what I did, play Heroic DLC and ask people to party up. I introduced Grifball to about 20 new friends and they all loved it. Its a good change from the norm. I wasnt that interested in Grifball untill I watched the humpday film. that is a killer feature.

And to all the haters out there. If you think Grifball is stupid...well you know where to go and how to get there. I personally love all the playlist available. I do miss the old ones and I look forward to the new ones to come.

HEY, HERE'S A NOVEL IDEA. HOW ABOUT A BUNGIE FAVORITES PLAYLIST? THAT WAY WE COULD ACTUALLY PLAY GRIFBALL WITHOUT HAVING TO GET EVERYONE OFF OF TEAM SLAYER FIRST, WHICH IS ABOUT IMPOSSIBLE.

1: THERE IS A FLAW IN THE MAP, if you go to the " a" side, there is a way to get out side, then u can go thru the tele and end up near the other bace.

2 this is an awesome game type, you should have it every other week end
