Discuss Grapple for Multiplayer..Good or bad?

I don’t really want a titanfall-halo hybrid type of multiplayer experience… Definitely wanted to go back to a classic multiplayer experience and Halo 5 spartan abilities completely ruined the online halo experience for me. I appreciate the movement in h5 but some of the newly-introduced abilities completely ruined my experience.

What do you think? Maybe, my thinking is wrong?

I’m cool with the grapple as a concept for campaign, but for multiplayer? Yikes… I hope not.

it’s terrible for both

I hope grapple is not a default spartan ability… would be weird to see Spartans flying across every map

He didn’t have the attachment in the 2019 cutscene, and it looks like he has an attachment slot on both wrists. My bet is that it can (possibly) be removed from multiplayer gamemodes.

It seems like they described it as an equipment, and said for multiplayer it would work diffrently then it does in campaign. I think I dont mind it as halo 3 style equipment at all.

If it’s a limited use pick up I have no issue. The portable grav lift in H3 accomplished a similar thing and that was never a big problem.

No issue with it in campaign, but it should be left out of multiplayer IMO.

The grapple hook is cool.

I just can’t understand why this game looks visually worse than Halo 3.

Well can’t really say till I get to use it…but I do hope it’s not in all playlist… Infinite will hopefully have modern AND classic playlist.

The news post already confirmed this type of stuff, also like the shield, will be equipment you find in the map like H3

100% agree. Although part of me finds it silly that Chief’s armor is now retrofitted with this kind of “tech” in the 26th century.

I noticed that in the demo with the use of the stationary shield in the Brute encounter. However, I couldn’t tell if the grappling hook is the same. It’s also part of his suit.

Not sure who saw this: https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/campaign-evolved

The grapple hook is in multiplayer BUT as an equipment pickup. I’m fine with that.

its been confrimed that grapple is like the equipment for h3 meaning you can pick it up on the map not start off with it

Fine with it for campaign, but not in multiplayer. Add a grappling hook and you say goodbye to tactics, strategy, and map control and hello to arcadelike run and gunning. That’s not Halo.

I don’t think it works in either campaign or multiplayer. Doesn’t suit Halo at all and looks taken right out of Titanfall and COD.

How so? It seems just fine for the campaign. I’m withholding judgement on it in multiplayer until I see gameplay.

i think the grapple will only be used for exploring and grabbing weapons and fusion coils so i think it’ll be ballanced whne ifninte launches
