In Halo 4 I thought the armor abilities were not a good idea. Anyway, now I know they will not be in Halo 5. But can we discuss in a lot more detail what these abilities will be. I heard they are like boarding a vehicle or something similar. Although, in the Halo 5 beta trailer it shows the ability of armor lock, which I hated and it looks like I see a jet pack in there too. Aren’t those the same thing as some of the ones in Halo 4? I am just confused on this subject and would like a good discussion on these abilities.
Can we move this to Halo 5, sorry mods.
Just ignore the trailer for now, since everything is still all concepts right now. From what we know, these “Spartan Abilities” are inherit abilities all players have no matter what, like Halo 2’s dual-weilding ability, hijacking a car, reloading, etc.
As to what new abilities the players will be able to perform, we won’t have a clue until the Halo 5 beta rolls out. For all we know, every player could have jetpacks automatically, or every player could hold down B to charge up their melee attack into a super melee attack or something dumb like that. All we have are ideas.

Absolutely not. Banned.
…It’s moved.

That doesn’t look like Armor Lock it seems to be more of a Ground Pound(?)
Also, that was a Thruster Pack not a Jet pack.

Thank you for clarifying those abilities. Still not a fan but I will be able to decide in the beta. Not sure why 343 wants to add them but I am open to certain changes that aren’t game breakers. We’ll see…
