Evade
Sprint
Jet Pack
These are all very simple and balanced abilities that provide different styles of movement. I recently posted about utilizing 4 AA’s at once being able to switch between them at will. Negative feedback opened my eyes that this would infact ruin Halo because of the Camo ability. I still believe switching between AA’s is a great way to add variety to the fights instead of people just straffing back and forth with the occasional jump. Balance is also a big issue for competetive people and I am one for competetive play myself. AA’S ruined Reach in a way but also shed new light on the franchise.
3 Abilities at once!!!
As i posted before the D-Pad is untouched in Halo Reach. Press LEFT and you’ll switch to sprint, Press UP and you switch to your Jet Pack, press Right and you’ll change to Evade. These 3 are the most balanced AA’S in Reach (IMO) and if they all run on the same cooldown it’d keep things in check. Halo without armor abilities was “balanced” Halo with AAs adds possibilities and with everyone having the same possibilities makes things balanced.
Please feel free to provide suggestions, complain, or your own ideas.
Just Sprint please. No loljetpacks please.
Evade as a pick up, now that’s something to consider.

the thing is. Spring and Jet Pack are more for getting around the map. Once someone would encounter enemies they’d most likely switch to Evade because it’s usually better for combat situations. having the other abilities would simply allow you to get to places much faster if needed.
lol jetpack and evade
Why even use sprint when you can break map control or run away faster with evade?

of course if this went through to the top everything would be balanced. evade would most likely take a nerf to limit only 1 roll and decrease the distance it covers to ensure sprint does what it’s meant to do. Cover ground.
> Competetive Balance removing all AA’s
Fixed.
so re-release halo 3 or 2? They need something new
They all should be pickups.
There, balanced.
i could see jet pack as a pick up. the others seems a little weird why you couldn’t start with them

Unlike Sprint, you can’t exactly nade someone that’s in the air while they can throw grenades right at you. That is the unfairness that is loljetpacking.

Newsflash: AA’s aren’t new.
Wow slow news day…
it also takes away their ability to dodge and strafe making them easy targets to pick off. if someone had evade why would they not simply roll out of the way instead of fly off slowly?
no they’re not. using multiple at a time are though. thought i made that clear. halo 3 was getting old cause it was basically halo 2 with equipment. so they came out with AA’s and people started freaking about which ones are overpowered. this clears most of them out and starts people on a even playing field from the spawn.

People complain about AA’s and your solution is to make them dominate even more?
Wat.
Besides jetpack, evade and sprint are all OP IMO.
theres people who hate them and people who love them. its not one sided. this is just a simple idea about meeting in the middle
No lolpack. ARMOR LOCK. It is the best cure to noobery.
i really like the jet pack as a means of getting around. its good to get over nades but once your in the air your screwed. I doubt people would be flying over nades as much anyway if they had the ability to roll.
Then you, my friend, have not played with lolpackers. People who just fly to get out of fire, to get away from grenades. Hell, I’ve seen them just fly when no enemies are looking, throw a sticky, and get themselves in the face. Anyway, it detracts from vertical maps. Who needs the high ground when you can make your own? Maybe just Sprint and Evade.
you make a valid point. i would still like to get the perks of being able to cross gaps or scale obstacles. perhaps slowing the speed of the jet pack would help
Duration a bit to. Though Evade does not need to be nerfed at all.
