Halo 4: 343 confirms "ball games" at PAX

After having revealed yesterday the new map Exile-Exile, 343 continues to show the multiplayer Halo 4 at PAX Prime, proving once again the presence of two modes in the game very popular among fans: Oddball and Grifball . The first, shown on the map, should not deviate much from as we know it and is keep the ball more time to accumulate points, with the ability to pass it to other team-mates. The ball carrier can use a gun as additional defense.

More interesting is the introduction of Grifball game mode to native, since in the past it was a created by communities and mode based on Assault mode. The purpose remains the same: two teams of four players collide in an open and unimpeded arena with the aim to bring the ball into the opposing goal to make the point. The game allows use of hammers and blades, for which different rules apply: If we use the hammer to hit the ball carrier, get an instant kill but this will shoot way off the field, while using the knife killing is less certain but if successful will get automatically the ball. This is a mode where team play is essential with all members met to coordinate to effectively defend their destination or their ball carrier. We show you the two modes in the same video.
