Why is this in the Reach thread? Are we implying Reach will have MLG? I hope not.
Why wouldn't there be MLG in Reach? Halo's main promoter is MLG. There would be less players if MLG did not promote each Halo game. If you don't like MLG, don't play it. I play both MLG and Social pesonally. The so called "MLG Stereotypes" are unliked by MLG and whenever they make any posts on the forum, they are constantly flamed and eventually banned from the site. Same thing happens here at B.net.
MLG is trying to improve the general community by influencing Bungie to have more customization. If there was more customization for Reach, then one, Casual players could make more custom games for fun. And two, MLG would be able to make more customized gametypes to appeal to their fans.
Competitive players like me who aren't MLG Pros, or wannabes, play other playlists. My teamates play social and have craploads of them. I love Griffball personally, which is still considered a competitive community. Griffball would be extremely beneficial from more customization. Being able to make completly new maps on completly empty canvases or walled off arenas for MLG, or Griffball, or an infection map that would have to be walled off.
Reach will have MLG even if there is no playlist. Halo 1 and 2 were like this. CoD and Gears are still like this.
