Dear 343,
I’ve been playing Halo since CE. Halo is so good that its the only FPS franchise i play. Many old-school fans dont like the new playstyle of Halo 5. Personally, i really enjoy it and think it is an excellent FPS in its own right. However, that doesnt mean it replaces the perfected, classic formula of the original trilogy. I would love to see a gametype where the spartan abilities (except clamber) and maybe even sprint are removed. This classic gameplay would be AMAZING when paired with the great hit detection and 60fps in Halo 5. This new gameplay style is great, but it doesnt have to try and replace the previous style. They can both exist together. Please make it happen 343!
tl;dr= Please make a Legendary/Classic gametype with no Spartan Abilites. I love H5 but i miss the way the previous games played.

At this point its all or nothing. Keeping sprint and clamber wouldnt be ‘classic.’
And unfortuantely, there’s no (from the ground up) maps that would feel right without spartan abilities. Maps are warped and enlarged to incorporate things like sprint and clamber

Yeah thats why i could live with sprint and clamber. Sprint is kind of necessary with these big maps, and clamber i personally always thought should’ve been a thing. I would still love to see it though. CoD: Advanced Warfare did it and it was great and didnt hurt anyone.

Also, forge maps from community could easily fix this problem. Someone has already made a 1:1 Sandtrap remake with no abilities. Frank O’Connor even tweeted about it. Its on Forge Labs YT channel.

I agree. That way the maps would actually be suited for it. 343 would still need to implement it as a joinable playlist in matchmaking though. Thats what im really asking for.
The only ability that even remotely fits Halo’s lore and gameplay are the thrusters.
It needs a few tweaks. Many to be able to swap weapon and reload while doing it. The delay from the thruster animation to then be able to do anything else is too long.
Sprint and clamber mess with the gameplay, map design and flow far more than anything else. Keeping either would result in the same poor gameplay.

Agreed. Thats why it would be best with forge maps. Many people have alread started making old-school map remakes with no spartan abilities. It could totally happen and probably wouldnt require that much work from 343 at all.
