a message to the purists

well, several messages anyway. and i hope after you read this you will all calm down, the modernists need to calm down as well, but lets be honest you guys start more of the arguments than they do…

  • halo 2 and halo 3 multi-player are available to you on the xb1, so if you don’t like the new things in halo 5, go to tmcc.- i have tried arguing your side of ‘the line’ and you will never win the argument, likewise i have tried to argue the modernist side of ‘the line’ as well… they also will never win.- ninja played a game not using sprint and wen’t 23-1. if sprint is so easy to escape alive with how did he do that? skill gap is real. ninja also played a game with sprint where all he did was escape… which proves that both sides are right…? no it proves that there’s a skill gap, he did those because he was better than his opponents, the problem is, its a “different” skill set than what you had in halo1-3.- but if you wan’t to play halo 3’s gameplay, but with up to date software backing it up and built for better hardware then, do this.- but just remember, 343i and -Yoink!- are businesses and will do what should make money, the halo games with modern shooter features sell well so the following games will have those features, but you wanted a more classic play style? unfortunately you can’t have both fully at the same time, so halo 5 is the best balance between the two so, you have the option to play you’re “true halo” in tmcc with halo 1,2 and 3. you have the option to improve and add skills to your repertoire, you have the option to play a more modern halo, you have the option as well to make your own game that plays exactly like halo 1 or 2 or 3 (but i recommend you make it look a lot different, with a completely different name or -Yoink!-'s legal department will feast on your bones). But please ask yourself this, while you believe that this is a bad halo game, if this wasn’t a halo game, would it be a good game? if the answer is yes then it shouldn’t matter whether it has “halo” or “Sanchez the pinata of death” as the title, a good game is a good game.

You should stop posting here, you are embarrassing yourself. First off, we don’t want the same game all over again. There simply is bad change and good change, sprint is BAD change, that’s why people are against it.
Ninja playing without sprint proves nothing, he is a frigging pro player, of course he will pull stats like that. The point that he and some other pro’s are boycotting sprint tells something, right? So maybe you should stop mindlessly following 343i and giving them free pass everytime, because all you do is hurt this franchise, sheep.

I can see your point but can you not try to be that hostile? I mean I really agree with you but hey, let’s not get too hostile…

OT: ninja really showed how sprint slows gameplay and maybe useless. Not showing a skill gap.

Sorry, just frustrated to see posts like this all the time.

Yep, at one point he was just sprinting, thrustering and clambering all over the map without killing anyone to show how broken sprint is :stuck_out_tongue:

Agree sprint is lame, not balanced at all. Halo now has cat and mouse. If someone ducked behind cover you would always know they’d be there still or moving to another area of the map in a logical way that gave them cover leaving you with the option of a nicely placed grenade to flush them out. Now it is a guessing game as the which path of escape they will take. Get it wrong and they will be long gone or run into a buddy so you see that darn assist popping up.
