Can we have a classic control scheme please?

Dear 343 and Microsoft,

I know you want to attract more people to Halo, and this will mean primarily Call of Duty players. So you’re making the controls easier for them. I have no problem with that. In fact I think it’s a great idea.
Halo Veterans can change the controls to whichever one they like if they have a problem with the default.
But please can you implement a classical control scheme? By this, I mean a mixture of Halo 1/2 and modern Halo.

RT = Shoot.
RB = Arbour ability(Sprint or armour ability can be either on RB or LB).
B = Melee.
A = Jump.
Y = Switch weapon.
X = Reload.
Right Analogue = Look/Zoom.
Left Analogue = Movement/Crouch.
LT = Throw grenade.
LB = Sprint(Sprint or armour ability can be either on RB or LB)
Grenades = D-pad.
Start = Menu.
Select = Scoreboard.

I believe that to be the perfect classic Halo controls. At least for me.
One part of Halo for me is the controls.
Thanks for listening.

A classic control scheme would be very nice. :slight_smile:

Trust me, the new control scheme will make more sense and you’ll get used to it.

Here’s what I want:

RT = Shoot
RB = Melee
B = AA
A = Jump
Y = Switch weapon
X = Reload
Right Analogue = Look/Zoom
Left Analogue = Movement/Crouch
LT = Throw grenade
LB = Sprint
D-pad = Switch Grenade
Start = Menu.
Select = Scoreboard.

Or if possible (ideally): This is the same as Default Reach

RT = Shoot
RB = Melee
B = Switch Grenade
A = Jump
Y = Switch weapon
X = Reload
Right Analogue = Look/Zoom
Left Analogue = Movement/Crouch
LT = Throw grenade
LB = Sprint / AA
D-pad = Switch between Sprint and AA
Start = Menu.
Select = Scoreboard.

I am not saying I can’t adapt the default controls, I would just hate it. I’d just like to have this option.

That’d be nice for a lot of people, even though I’ll be using the ‘Recon’ control scheme because I’m used to it. :stuck_out_tongue:

Recon is close enough to ‘classic’ to me. It’s my own preference though.

Though I hope for a varient of recon where the sprint and AA are reversed since i like having sprint on LB.

But overall, I enjoyed using recon at RTX. It fit very nice once i got used to it

I want the Reach controls, just with X being armour ability.

I… cant believe I hadn’t thought of this. Spring would work fine on RB since I don’t need to pull the trigger if I’m trying to run.
