CTF

Did anyone get a chance to play a round or two of CTF? because I feel the flag carrier is too fast, he is not over-encumbered or movement speed wasnt affected like you always are in halo CTF, of course, this can be defeated with flag running but the standard speed seemed a lil too quick and strange that you didn’t slow down. Thoughts?

I managed to get a couple of CTF games, seemed fine to me, but needs more playing I guess, glad they got rid of the flagnum though

Yeah the flag guy is a bit too fast. I see a lot of players just sprinting as if they don’t know that the reason why they are always revealed with the flag is because they sprint. Sprinting with the flag always instantly reveals your location so it is actually better to not sprint with it because you basically just walk through the entire map with the flag while the entire enemy team is just clueless of where you are. Halo infinite actually encourages you to not sprint much at all unlike H4 and H5 where they want you to sprint. In fact I think your motion tracker only detects sprinting enemies now but I could be wrong.

I actually prefer Infinite’s flag sprinting, as it gives you the option whether to move quickly but be revealed or move slowly. However, I do think flag sprinting is too fast, I don’t know if it’s me but it the sprinting feels faster than regular sprinting, and I think the devs should do a small nerf to the speed
