Since there was no Thread, i decided to make one. Yesterday, when playing Grifball just so i could easily get 2 Daily Challenges, i saw some new Gametypes and Maps so after playing a few games, i thought i had seen most of them, so here is al ist of new Maps and Gametypes: -Blargball: Grifball with players forced to be Elites. The Gameplay does change a bit cause health recharges automaticcaly and Bomb Carriers get their shields recharged faster and don't need to wait for their health to recharge as far as it can before their shields recharge like it does with Spartans. My rating: 8/10 - Zealot Blargball: Blargball with Evade. My rating: 8.5/10 - Jetpacks: Grifball with Unlimited Jetpacks. The Gametype is good but the Maps for this suck. My rating: 7/10 - Seperate ways: New Map made for Jetpacks. It's basically a big rectangle. My rating: 7.5/10 - Red Ray Court: A very small Map(smaller than Bloody Grifball) and really hectic. My rating: 8.5/10 - Get off my Lawn!: A Map in the Quarry intended for Jump Pack. What heavily dissapoints me is that it is surrounded by Walls as high as Colliseum Walls giving it more of a huge feeling instead of a small, warm, cozy, compact feeling i would expect from a Map in the Quarry. My rating: 6/10 - X Court: The Map itself is a large floating open square with Team Spawns in the corners of the Map. Gametypes that comes with this Map are Blargball and Zealot Blargball. My rating: 8.0/10 Well, that pretty much sums up what i played, saw and remembered. There a re highly likely still some Maps and/or Gametypes i forgot. MOAR: - Erora: A meduim sized square covered in Grey and White tiles but because of the Juicy Filter being on on this Map it looks like Blue and very light Grey. My rating: 6.5/10 - Heimdalls Might: A Cube with the ceiling torn off. The gameplay is terrible cause the length, height and width is completely equal and plus Jetpacks the Bomb Carriers caneasily sneak past the defenders. If it would've been more of a rectangle and with a lower flying area the Map could maybe be balanced. However, as it is now, it really sucks in my opinion. My rating: 6/10 -Jump Pack: Grifball with limited Jetpack. My rating: 8/10 - The View: I really love this Map, it's basic yet it's really fun. The Walls are made of Colliseum Windows given it not too open and not too enclosed feeling. The Gametype that goes with this is Grifball Evolved. My rating: 9/10 - Indomitable: Pretty much the same as X-Court and uses the same Gametypes but the differences are that the square is smaller and the sides of the Map are covered with Inclines. My rating: 7.5/10
Was these maps and gamemodes made by the community or did bungie decide to just add elites and jetpacks
The Elite thing was probably added by Bungie but Jetpacks was already pretty old and Bungie finnally decided to add it.
Do they give something to the original creator or do they just see that people like it and just take it
Well, GrifballHub is pretty popular and Bungie knows them too so sometimes a Bungie Member decides to grab some new Gametypes and Maps from GrifballHub.
I noticed the gametypes as well today. I played a couple of games but I didn't get to play all of them. Im really digging most of the grifball courts except for that Bloody grifball one cos that one is Bloody awful. Also jet pack grifball is not grifball. It just doesnt feel like it belongs at all.
Bloody Grifball is was there all the time. And yes i also think Jetpacks just don't fit into Grifball.
Ugh. Great. This is just like when they ruined grifball dxp in halo3 by adding all those low gravity gametypes. just give me good old fashioned grifball btw, its spelled more, not moar. Learn to spell or don't post.
it scared the crap out of me.... first there was a new map here and there.... then BLAM.... theres three selections and new maps everywhere
