Halo 5 left stick sprint?

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

Hi all

I’ve only played Halo 5 an hour or so so far, and during a tutorial was told to press the left thumb stick in to sprint. Doing so didn’t actually make me sprint, but made me slow down to a walking pace. I checked all the controls, and left thumb stick is supposedly both sprint + zoom which I’m using.

Playing Halo 4 sprint worked fine, but for some reason I’m unable to sprint on Halo 5 using this layout. If I change button layout the left thumb stick works fine (to crouch for example) and sprint works fine with other button layouts. The one I’m most used to for games is the default, so I’d rather not change just because sprint seems broken for me.

So my question - am I missing something massively here and somehow not using it correctly? I push in the thumb stick and move forward and have tried over and over, restarting the game and everything…but I just seem to walk instead…very strange?

Has this happened to anyone else? I can play without it I guess, but I’d really like to get this fixed,

Thanks

You do realize there are multiple button layouts, right? That or your controller is broken.

5

sounds like you’re hitting crouch.
if it persists trying switching button layouts.

6

try the fishstick layout.

also, bumping = spam. Stop.

I’m using default so left stick should be zoom + sprint…?

and yes as I wrote I’ve tried changing button layout but would prefer to keep it as it is instead of changing all the other controls and try find out what the issue is…just tried fish stick, again the same, doesn’t crouch or sprint, just slows down to walking

tried reinstalling but didn’t work

no one else had this?

p.s I’m new to these forums apologies for bumping

Also controller doesn’t seem broken as crouch works using left stick on other layouts

Nope I did not have this problem. Weird though

Seems like a controller issue…loaded up master chief collection, crouch with left thumb stick works fine but changing it to sprint it does the same thing…very weird!

Hi. I’m actually experiencing this issue for the first time RIGHT NOW and it’s driving me insane. I can’t play the game the way I’m comfortable playing it and I got booted out of a firefight match because I was trying to solve my issue during a game. It’s not my controller experiencing the issue, and I can tell that much because my left thumbstick world PERFECTLY FINE in Borderlands 3, Destiny 2, and all not other Halo games. It’s only Halo 5 that I have EVERY experienced this issue with and it only started happening literally within the past hour of me writing this comment. It’s very frustrating and very annoying because I can’t zoom and sprint only I throw myself straight into a whole new controller layout, which need I remind you all takes a -Yoink- LOAD to become accustomed to a new controller button layout, after literal years and almost two decades of playing Halo games with the layout I currently use. Basically, this is -Yoink- and it makes me hate Halo 5 so much that I question why I even still play it. This game has so many issues, including failing to load my Solo campaign for the umpteenth time in a row, that I wonder if it was even work the sixty some-odd dollars spent buying it. It is the worst Halo game ever and I -Yoinking!- want my -Yoink- money back.
