Hey, I’ve been playing Halo since CE.
I’ve been there since it started and the one thing that really annoyed me was how Halo 3 + Reach really differed from the classic Halo experience(Button-wise). But obviously this was because of the Console change, as the 360 had more buttons.
Anyways I think I’ve come up with the perfect Halo button configuration, combining both what worked really well with the old XBOX and new one.
And this isn’t from my Halo experience, this is from many games(Eg; Deus Ex: Human Revolutions).
I’ve really tried to differ it from CoD and I think 343 should do the same.
Many of you may be wondering why LB is Sprint. 1) Because it works so well, literally. Play Deus Ex Human Revolutions and you will see how good it feels; especialy for a Spartan. And don’t forget in Deus Ex you’re much like a Spartan. 2) It’s not like CoD. This is the main focus, try to differ it from CoD. If we can, we should avoid it.
And X was traditionally reload in Halo. Please bring that back as Reload.
I would really like the ability to reallign whatever button I want in Halo 4. Not just choose from 4 different layouts.
I just use “Bumper Jumper”, it seems to work best for me.
I would love to have custom button mapping for the controller, but I’d be happy if they just kept the current button configurations and maybe added a couple in.
BTW, OP, you button configuration doesn’t really work for me. I’ll bet that it works great for you, and for you it may be perfect, but it’s for reason like I’ve mentioned that I think having a Custom option for the controller button mapping would be best for everyone.
