Did Bungie have plans to add MLG rules to Halo: Reach playlists?

There are a few super competitive playlists. I think they are called 'the arena' which should be similar to the traditional no radar, battle rifle and pistol mlg rules

I'm pretty sure Bungie has been working with MLG to get a playlist to their liking, but I don't think it will be out at launch.

That will more then likely happen next year when MLG switches over from Halo 3 to Reach.

MLG playlist will be out within a month, still need a couple of weeks of testing maps and settings.

It was announced in Raleigh that MLG will be part of the first playlist update. 
EDIT: It is not ranked so it is social playlist.

" @SpikeSpiegel:   I'm gonna guess some games will not even be close. Majority of MLG players in Halo 3 had a 50.

The hell? Why won't they rank it?

" @Green_Incarnate: "Ranks" as you knew them in Halo 3 do not exist anymore. The only ranked playlists in Reach are Arena lists; the rest use a purer form of True Skill with ranks that are invisible to players in order to make quality matches. Since the Arena rating formula is Slayer-only and not designed to handle Objective scoring, and MLG has plenty of Objective games in their settings, it's impossible to make an Arena MLG playlist. "

So they are switching over? definitely?

I remember the beta had a strange ranking system with gold and silver emblems. I don't really follow new games coming out in close detail. Doing so drives me crazy.

The MLG playlist is in the menu in the Quick Look.

" @NekuSakuraba: Yes. IIRC,MLG announced that they will be switching to Reach for the 2011 season, and that the rest of this year's Combines will feature Halo: Reach instead of Halo 3, in preparation for next year's competitions. "

Staying with Reach until the next Halo or Bungie game, I presume.

So they are staying with Reach forever than? "

Not yet. They have to balance everything out first. Settings, seeing what's the best map to choose, Weapons, and stuff like that. As for Reach itself I hope it comes back. In Halo 3 MLG was one of my favorite gametypes.
