I just wanted to start a conversation, so what do you guys think are the best and worst features and please don’t mention sprint because we know its “evil”.
I like clamber because I fall alot so it makes me look better.
I love smart link don’t know why I just do.
No hight indicator on the radar hate that.
Req cards randomness because it effects gameplay in war zone.
Edit: This thread is about anything that effects gameplay not just the Spartan abilities.
Worst features:
Spartan Charge (Do I need to explain?)Good features:
Thrust (like the idea of able to thrust away from explosives)Mixed feelings:
Sprint (Don’t care if it stays or goes away) - Clamber (Same as sprint)
I honestly love how fast paced the game play has become (especially true in CQC) due to things like sprint, spartan charge, thrusters, and ground pound.
I used to hate hover aim or whatever it’s called, so I turned it off. What’s nice is that I can press b while aiming in mid air to activate it anyway, which is a much better feel for me on the off chance I might need it. I really don’t mind it anymore, I guess it’s a nice feature as well
The one thing I do not like is spawning with any type of precision weapon. I think it wrecks game play and discourages fighting over/using power weapons and vehicles. I liked how Halo 3 did it: 8 person team spawns with ARs, there are 2-3 BRs that spawn in the base. Everyone else is forced to get in a warthog, banshee, or go find the sniper/laser.

YES!!! I would love AR starts in all slayer modes especially BTB because there’s to much BRing across the maps.
I love the movement in Halo 5. Sprinting, clamering, thrusting, it makes the game more fast paced, and creates more of a gap between experienced and new players. Being able to clamber and float your way up to a spot more quickly, it’s just a lot more fun. However, I absolutely HATE spartan charging and it’s probably the worst thing about Halo 5.
Worst gameplay feature: Sprint. Even if it doesn’t count. Second place is Spartan Charge. Third place is Clamber.
Best gameplay feature is the ability to switch seats in a vehicle
Best:
1: Clamber. Every time I’m playing 3/Reach/2/4, I always get annoyed when I bang against the top of a wall and can’t climb up it. Plus, it literally saves my life.
2: Ground Pound. It’s really fun to use, and super satisfying when you kill someone.
Worst:
1: Spawn timer in WZFF (Does this count?) Seriously, die once and miss a tenth of the round. That’s terrible.
2: Smart Link. It just… feels awkward. Like they added something that they saw elsewhere without much thought. I also miss being able to zoom with my assault rifle and just getting a distant view, instead of having a 1.1x zoom that obscures a third of the screen.

It’s not that sprint doesn’t count the thread is about anything that effects gameplay (not just Spartan abilities) and sprint already has a mega thread just about it.
