Sprint? Spartan abilities? Weapon timers in game instead of on couch? Clamber? New scope animation? New rocket design? Useful close range weapons? Headshot multiplier? Announcer sounds different? Kill cam?
I know how you feel.
This is sad.
Plus, the headshot multiplier was removed, the classis launcher is returning, and you basically admit that its just an animation.
Those who want Classic Halo have:
Halo CE
Halo 2 Classic
Halo 2 Anniversary
Halo 3
Those who want Modern Halo have:
Halo 4
[Halo 5 by Oct.]
So … what’s the complaint? 4 of the 6 Halo games soon to be Xbox One are classic. The Classic crowd has already been given the entire back catalog of Classic Halo on this generation. They’ve given you all of it. So why are you crying?
(and for the record, I’m a fan of both, my two favorite Halo games are CE & H4. I like variety, so I’ll be playing all 6 multiplayers).

Exactly. Yet they keep trying to change Halo 5 to better themselves, not realizing that some people (like myself) may prefer it to previous Halo’s.

Some people? Judging from the wave of positive feedback from the beta and the cheers from the after beta changes, its plenty more than some.
The irony of the anthem you have chosen is that radio still exists today… just like classic Halo.
If Halo 4 and 5 stayed on the same path as the first 3 would the first 3 still be considered classic Halo?
Quit being a -Yoink-. Millions of gamers aren’t lining up for the same old -Yoink-. I’m sorry, but the Division, MGS 5, Battlefront, etc are going to make Halo irrelevant if it doesn’t change at least a little bit. Hell, even though purists cry with their head under their pillow, Halo 5 STILL has the #1 preorders in the u.s. Plus we get even more sci-fi goodness. Halo 1 is got several game of the years for its campaign, not its multiplayer that was a slow version of quake.
lol reax guys i am trolling the classic extremists

Hah, people don’t remember, but Halo 1 MP was criticized for being the most casual arena shooter out at the time, and Halo 2 was criticized even more for being more accessible than Halo 1.

In all honesty, halo is pretty casual in any form.
IMO the most skill based game that involves tactics is planetside 2

True. Honestly, the least casual Halo game was probably 3, and that was the least casual for all the wrong reasons.

“The Classic Extremists.”
Perfect! Don’t forget Anti-Sprint Extremists. 
I’m actually working on a fan-made Halo game that is basically what a large amount of the halo community wants. (no sprint, no AA, improved forge, custom playlist, cross between halo 3 and reach ranking, huge armory, playable elites, etc.)

I guess being against a mechanic that has extreme effects on the gameplay make me an extremist.

That “wave” of people that want Halo 5 to be more classic pales in comparison to the “sea” of people who love it the way it is.
