Does anyone really use slide in halo 5?

For me I maybe used slide around 10 times and I had this game since launch back in 2015. I know it is mainly meant for you to use to get to cover faster but for me I use the thruster pack to get to cover faster. I use all the other spartan abilities but slide is some thing I never really use. To be honest I forget that slide is even in the game for months sometimes. I don’t really see people use it that much too. I think if we didn’t had the thruster pack then people would use slide more but since the thruster pack much more easier to use no one really use slide. You don’t even have to run to use the thruster pack but slide you do. Comment if you use slide in halo 5 because I think the percentage of halo 5 players that uses slide is less then 10%.

EDIT: I see a lot of people uses slide to boost through the map. But how many of you uses slide for a kill or for sliding into cover? Because It would be hard to use that slide boost jump (whatever order it goes in) when you are being shot at. If the only use of slide for most players is only for the slide,boost jump then the only thing slide do for a player is allow you to get to the power weapons and flag faster but if someone shoots you cannot do that technique because chances are they will kill you before you are able to jump.

There’s certain paths on maps that can’t be accessed without slide, which is why I use it.

Slide makes flying to spots easier and faster. I use slide every minute I play. So yes I and a lot of other people use slide.

all the time actually

slide and thursters make you go super fast

It’s become a natural habit for me since I like to cover distances more quickly.

I use it all the time. Especially in combination with boost to cover more ground

I use it all the time, mainly cause I’m trying to perfect that “superslide” thing. Really useful for just getting around quickly.

i know it’s awesome

I use it at least 35 times a match
It’s so useful if you run boost slide and then jump you travel much further than just regular running/boosting

I’m always using it whether it be to get to cover or to get around faster, I also tend to use it around corners for the element of surprise.

Do you mean sprint, slide, jump, thrust? :grin:

I use that pretty much all the time in matches.

I never used it for about a year into playing the game. I’m not really sure how useful it is cause it never feels consistent the distance I travel is very inconsistent. I think latency changes the distance you can get.

Not using it myself, since I never gave it a try. I do see people using it either for no reason, or to cover distance…

It’s super useful for getting around the map fast using it in combo with Sprint and thrusters. Also some jumps require it. Above a certain level of gameplay it is used pretty often.

Sometimes, I find that if I slide, jump, and then thruster in mid-air, it can get me places more quickly when needed.

Boost-sliding is a large component of high-level play and movement in H5. It’s the fastest maneuver to traverse the map and you can leap large gaps that you normally wouldn’t even be able to thrust over…

It’s great offensively too… you can receive a call-out, boost-slide to an adjacent position, much faster than usual, and clean up a kill to keep a multi-kill chain alive and “force” an offensive play.

Example… Forcing the Triple Kill

Here I got the callout for Bottom Red as I was dealing with enemy #2, then got into position as quickly as possible to clean-up #3. Slide is actually very useful in H5… you have to know how it can be chained with other abilities to use it to its full potential.

No he means thrust, slide, jump. It is easiest with maintain sprint off

I use it all the time. I mostly use it within the thrust-slide but sometimes I use the slide while flag running, moving around and just to jump around the map without using my thruster. It’s used by a lot of people if you take into account the thrust-slide and bum jump techniques.
