The Gandhi hop is no more… so sad along with crouch jumping both of which were high signatures of halo seem to have been lost. Lets help 343 find it again…
Whats a Gandhi hop? Crouch jumping works for me.

A Gandhi hop is when you repeatedly tap crouch while in the air to make it harder for the opponent to land a headshot, as popularized by MLG pro player Gandhi from team Legendz. You can’t crouch jump let alone Gandhi hop in Halo 5 as it has been replaced by the Ground Pound ability (crouch becomes Ground Pound while in the air), and the need to crouch jump to reach higher areas has been made obsolete by clamber.
If you seriously think you can still crouch jump in Halo 5, you obviously aren’t playing Halo 5.
Oh, I do that all the time, I didn’t know it had a name, thanks.

Not in Halo 5, you don’t.
Is it also not possible to zoom in while in the air without floating?
When pressing the Crouch button, you start to do the Ground Pound. However, if you stop doing the Pound before you shoot off, you actually jump higher.
By going into Smart Scope with Stabilizers when jumping, you also get a little extra height.
In Truth, you can jump from the ground up to the Red/Blue second floor with that.
So yeah, there ARE trick jumps like Crouch Jumping.

Ground pound is only activated if you hold the crouch in air, you can still tap it rapidly and achiev a ghandi although it’s still a pain in the -Yoink- if you use toggle. Also, you can disable auto stabilizers while aiming in the controller options.
Quinn said on twitter that they’d work on fixing crouch jumping.

Nah…
I was under the impression that the Gandhi-jump stopped being effective when they introduced bullet-magnetism in Halo 2.

One of the first “bring back…” I can agree on. I’m loving ads,sprint,clamber and thruster movement but I wouldn’t mind if they changed ground pound to a diff button so the old school halo fans can still do it. None of the new abilities take away from playing halo 5 like you used to (hip firing etc.) except for ground pound.
343i could change groundpound , so you need to press crouch AND sprint in mid air to groundpund. pressing sprint only activates the stabilizer.
Welcome back Ghandihop ^^

carbon* you may as well use the team name he was most famous for instead of the name prior.

nah that’s where it was most infamous, same with strongsiding.

oh i’d argue clamber takes away from a lot of skill jumps by making them inefficient and unnecessary.

yes it is, you can turn it off in the settings

This is a pretty solid idea. After habitually pressing crouch when jumping for the past decade, it’s a hard habit to break. I often find myself getting killed any time I try to jump while in battle because my guy will try to ground pound. It’s a hard habit to break and I do wish we could still crouch jump and/or Ghandi-hop.

yes, you have to turn it off in settings
it requires a stick click to hover while ADS in the air

Yes it is you can set it to toggle in the settings rather than auto
Dunno if this has been said or not, but us Bumper Jumpers can both crouch jump and ghandi hop without activating ground pound. Our melee is RB while crouch is LS.
