For the love of god REDUCE STRAFING ACCELERATION

Im a mid level onyx player brother, im a decently good/smart player, still with a lot to learn and a lot to improve on. I work hard on this game, watch a TON of film and really break it down and analyze it. Since you bring up defending C alone, 1) why are you defending a stronghold alone, 2)why is an enemy pushing you solo, 3)from what positioning are you defending C, 4)and who says that you have to hold C and win that gunfight, what if the smarter decision is to let them take that stronghold in that moment. Halo is deep brother, its much deeper than winning gunfights. Its so apparent that you are approaching Halo from a surface level, this game is so deep. You have 23 games in ranked on this account. @DeadCassette you have 75 games on this account. I have 2k games between my two accounts (both are mid onyx) already and had roughly 12k in H5, over about 1 year, 2020. I have put some serious work into this game studying film and pro play. Unless you guys have other accounts, you have little to no experience in halo infinite and a higher ranked player is attempting to give you guys some good insight into how halo operates and what really matters in this game, and you guys are arguing with me. There are mnk players that are already in top 100 on open crossplay. If they can do, you can do it, it takes work. Im not trying to talk down to you guys, you should come run some games with me and I can introduce you to very good players that are very cool and encouraging and we can help you guys improve at this game and start to see results. Open invitation. I have much higher ranked players that I learn from and run with. How you get better is by running with players that are better than you.

Okay so you get carried lol nice job bro. Try getting onyx without getting boosted and using an aim bot. Until that happens literally do not even speak.

If you dont think you have to learn anything, then you are dead in the water brother, and will never get better at this game.

I said learn to play with teammates. Stop removing words from my statements. And stop putting words in my mouth. I never said I didn’t have more to learn

That’s some entitled talk right there. I’ll gladly join up with you to meet these players. I might teach them a thing are two because I’ve been studying competitive as well. 6 years straight on Halo 5. Champion every month in the high 50s. Trust me. I’m no push over.

All of that is besides the point tho. I feel like a single player should be able to do far more than what is capable now. Many times I see an opportunity to gain more kills or more of a foot hold but I’m stuck regening my shields because it takes forever

Lol wow you guys are salty. You cant get carried to mid onyx brother. If you are not producing in game results and stats, you will barely gain any CSR, your MMR will not let you rank up, even while winning games. You would know that if you put time into this game. Again, you guys are arguing with me and telling me not to speak, im offering to help you guys get better at this game, and your trashing me. you guys have a combined total of 100 games in infinite and one of you is a platinum, and youre fighting me, hilarious. Im here to offer knowledge and help other players get better, we all can improve. Its clear to me you guys arent even really interested in that.

This is a topic and discussion about the inequalities between mouse players and controllers with built in aim bots. What would watching an aimbot user fight other aimbot users accomplish for me or anyone else out there frustrated at this issue?

Again, over and over you show that you have no base in reality and are just enthralled with hearing yourself speak. Unless you hard shift your focus to talking about the issue at hand we do not care about what you have to say or your friends that carry you. We especially do not care about videos you watch or past halo games you play. God I can smell the dorito dust and body oder coming through your posts.

Na bro. I’m not telling you not to speak. That’s the other guy. I’ll gladly take your help in game. I’m not salty either. I just happen to be invested heavily in comepetive

i mean no disrespect brother, im probably talking more to DMoney, my apologies

i could probably learn a lot from you as well if youve been studying and were high ranked in H5, i was late to H5 and never could make it out of onyx

Ok. Let’s talk about the actual post. Strafing.

I already mentioned above in my first comment that strafing was made to be faster because of the removal of the thruster pack.

If you slow down the strafe speed then you will be a sitting duck. When you Sprint you cant shoot. Meaning the player who is sprinting will have even more of an advantage over you because you can’t Sprint while shooting at him. You’ll have no movement with slow strafe speed.

This is why Sprint doesn’t belong in halo. It’s never worked. Halo 5 was the only Halo to balance it properly because it was attached to the ablities and you couldn’t regen unless you stopped sprinting.

lol youre way off the mark brother, good luck out there, your topic at hand is a non factor, thats the point, plus youre more interested in insulting than having a conversation, take care

The countless posts with this same issue and the multiple pro players pointing out the issue and saying that aim assist is better paint a different picture.

You can shoot while moving at sprint speed because jumping keeps your momentum.

Coming late to Halo 5 and getting champoin was almost impossible because all the champ rank people solidified their ranks. If you got champ every month then it was actually easier for you to get champ when the ranks reset because of your MMR. If you made it to mid onyx this game I’m sure you could’ve made it to champoin in halo 5 early game. I added your profile in game just now

Yes but Sprinting will always be faster than that. Even if it’s a little
Sprint also activates slide which does give you a speed boost in certain situations

gotchya, i actually agree with you partially, i think shield regen should be just like H5, one thing im not happy about so far, but i still see sprint in infinite as only being used for a movement foundation, to open up advanced movement, i rarely use it for map rotation, only to open up advanced movement mobility, like the super slide/curb slide and super slide jumps that do exist as of now, im assuming more will be uncovered?

Yeah when you hit a ramp but to do that you need to jump. If you argue that jumping reduces your speed and sprinting gives you speed with slide then your opponent is losing speed with the jump as well resulting in equal movement.

you can chain together some insane advanced mobility and get around the maps much faster than you could in H5 honestly, even with the thrust slide jumps etc

Exactly. Sprinting is almost pointless unless you use the advanced moves. Pretty much every time I Sprint I use it to slide around a corner or gain lunge on someone. I feel more will be uncovered but not in the same level as Halo 5. I can write an entire shopping list with the moves you could do in halo 5.
