No, not really. Wasn’t disappointed they didn’t show forge either, doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be there. Not that sprint is as important as forge, but I do like it.
I would be disappointed, although it doesn’t fuss me too much. What I hate is the stupid and mundane reasons this forum comes up with for it’s removal.
I would rather the thinkers at 343i decide whether it is good or bad then the fake competitive players who spam the forum with unproven lies and illegitimate arguments.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be depressed, but I’d be kinda bummed out. I like sprint.
> > You’re the one that made the ridiculous implication that everyone on the pro-sprint side is mature, and on the anti-sprint side is immature. How do you expect someone to respond to that?

> I would never make such a blatant generalisation. I simply suggested that it “demonstrates a distinct dichotomy”, which is something that I’ve observed as a player who is entirely neutral on the matter of sprint. I will grant you, though, that one side has more reason to be upset than the other. Nevertheless, I do think that they are <mark>going about the whole matter in the wrong way.[h/]

Just to add another reason why I would be disappointed: We are 500 years in the future with an advanced suit.
And yet we can’t run much faster than the marines, even though the books state that the Spartans can keep a consistently high crazy speed.
We don’t have super strength, even though we have the ability.
I want new in Halo 4. I want to be able to use the Mjolnir, not a pathetically nerfec version of it.
Looks like from what I saw in the Vidoc, the Chief was tearing open some door.
I am excited

Their complaints are really legit though
Its just its about Reach and not halo 4.

I wouldn’t care. I guess I might be a little happier, just because an AA is gone…
But to be honest, I can live with abilities like Sprint, and non-overpowered AAs.
In reality, we’d see a lot of complaining from the Reach crowd saying “WHY AREN’T THERE AAS AND SPRINT 343 YOU TAKING THE SERIES BACKAWERD”
Anyway, it’d be just as bad, just from a different side.
Honest Answer: As an old fan of halo(played’em all), I wouldn’t really be disappointed. And I wouldn’t make a billion threads about sprint not being implemented. I like halo, and I will of course look at halo 4 as an improvement. Tbh, seeing halo 4 without sprint would kind of defeat the purpose of modernizing this game and making it futuristic (where Spartans can’t run lol). Anyways, I would still buy the game and have tons of fun with it.
That doesn’t mean I think sprint shouldn’t have been implemented in this new trilogy. I would just have to cope with it.

Agreed. Good to see 343i is thinking like this as well.

It would be interesting to see his response actually.
Spartans shouldn’t be exhausted from sprinting for 15 seconds, it makes the whole ordeal even more ridiculous.
But when they “sprint” at a constant speed, that is weird since they are fictional super-soldiers and those shouldn’t be able to run at constant high speed for at least an hour. /sarcasm.

That would be very cool. I may be jumping the gun on this, but whose to say that at some point in time, in this trilogy, we wont have the full fledged capabilities of a Spartan?
That would be really interesting to exploit a true Spartan.
No, I wouldn’t go make a rant about it but I would still be a little dissapointed.

Yeah, dude. Like, it would be too bad if they weren’t prioritizing canon over gameplay and enjoyability, right?
I’d be sodding done!!! How could anyone ever misprioitize so incredibly badly?
I don’t understand how sprint is innovative and modern from a developing perspective either. It’s not like Bungie invented it, it’s not like it hadn’t been in loads of other games before, it’s not like it actually improves on anything, adds anything, or solves any problems in Halo. Especially none that couldn’t be solved by simply increasing the base movement speed.
How is it pushing Halo forward?
But yeah, it’s sort of nice to have for customs. I’ve seen lots of creative gametypes utilising these armorabilities, and honestly, lowering the customizability from one game to the next in a series would be sort of lame.
I don’t want it all over matchmaking though.
Maybe in some sort of social playlists or just som other specific sort of playlist. Casuals are fine without it, but competitive people are everything but fine with it, so to make the majority of playlists as enjoyable as possible to as many as possible, this is what needs to be done.
Regardless of sprint being in there or not, I trust that when all these new features were built-in from the beginning, it’d be kinda hard NOT to balance it all in 3 years.
I was giggling like a little schoolgirl at the ViDoc, and Sprint didn’t bother me. I don’t think it would’ve changed with/without it.
> Probably not. I think sprint is a great mechanic in Halo and I would be very disappointed if they got rid of it, but if something is confirmed and I know it then I would probably just talk about it over a game of Halo with my friends.
In the multiplayer footage sprint is seen when the spartan IV goes through the lift when they’re talking about the HUD.
If they balance it by changing base speed I’m fine, I just used it to get from A to B faster because movement is atrocious in Reach.
90% of halo players don’t want sprint
9% don’t care
1% has no idea what they’re talking about
I wouldn’t mind BUT I have really come to enjoy sprint. Things feel awkward without it.

Well I do think that your assumed numbers should be moderated a bit. Judging solely from these forums, and the impact that Reach and H3 had on this franchise, I think it should be more like this:
30% don’t want it.
30% don’t care.
40% do want it.
Unfortunately.
