    What do most people play when in customs? Infection.
    Infection, is not so serious, but it is fun. There are so many different ways you could play.

    I am sure it would have a lot of people playing at any given time. Much more than sqaud battle or objective, but I am not implying that those playlists are bad. This could totally be a social playlist, but I would just like to see infection in a playlist so that I can play it all day every day. I am sure others would too.

    Why play doubles with a screaming partner because you got killed? I hate that. I mean, Halo 3 is a GAME. You won't lose your paycheck if you die from an assault rifle! You play to have fun, it's not about competition, even though that is what most people see it as.

    Since infection is a free for all game almost, it is funny to see a human get killed the stupidest way. I don't remember EVER playing infection, and hearing a kid yelling at another because they didn't get the kill.

    So I ask the community, to sign this petition. I will take this thread in a well written email to Bungie, and see what they have to say. I am posting this on many forums to get the most diversity.

    I will TRY to post all the people's signings in the front post. Please write down your gamertag.

    So, without any further waiting,

    I have to agree completely. They could take some popular mini-games as well, like, tremors and mouse, cat and mouse, pennyless, cave freaks etc.

    I've wondered the same thing after playing 'Double XP Weekend' and it being so much fun. I though that "How can Bungie not see that when they have infection, the population in the other playlists goes down quite a bit" now some of you may disagree with me but that's just my firm opinion so there no changing it.

    I think that Grifball should be it's own playlist to stop it from being it all the time...

    OP
    Yes, infection should be a permanent playlist. I've wanted this change forever!

    One reason for this is that they have honor rules. You can't have a gametype in matchmaking that requires honor rules.

    Anyway, I guess I'll sign up.

    What honor rules are you talking about in infection?

    And you can sign me up as well. I'd love to see an infection playlist.

    The problem is that there are a LOT of different infection variants. Capture the Flag may have different flag carrier traits, or different starting weapons, but it's still capture the flag. Infection can be modified to give almost any "feel." Bungie would have to do a lot of research to come up with good variants. The other problem is that many infection maps depend on a specific gametype. Both the maps and gametypes would have to work with any pairing, were they to appear in matchmaking. Its not an insurmountable problem, but it is something I'm sure Bungie would rather not deal with. Hopefully they'll listen.

    I agree, but it wouldnt be the infection played in customs games. It would be something that is completely balanced and unbreakable, like the doulbe exp weekends

    anyways, you have my support. GT - DoWw
