It’s simple really.
You have the so called “Normal” Halo 5 playlists which involve sprint and all the other spartan abilities.
And then you have the “Classic” Playlists which have 4-5 competitive playlists that us old school people desire which DO NOT involve any sprint or spartan abilities.

With the news that all of the abilities will be optional in custom games, I’m almost 9001% positive there will be playlists for both parties.
Were it so easy…
See that’d be nice, but unfortunately Halo 4 was supposed to launch with a classic playlist and then they didn’t even get around to putting it in until about 6 months later and that didn’t have the toggle option. Hopefully this time there are some classic playlists at launch since toggle is a thing now, but I’m skeptical.
I like this idea but there are two small flaws with it.
1, A classic playlist would need to include Slayer, Objective, FFA and BTB. And in all honesty I can’t see 343 wanting to fragment it’s player base so much.
No matter what Josh Holmes has said in the blog, 343 is in charge they make the decisions, they make the rules and without a UU player count they could quite easily say “well nobody played classic so we’re pulling it.” Hopefully they wouldn’t be so devious, but after the stone walling the community got over MCC I wouldn’t trust them as far as I could spit a dead rat.
One big flaw is that Halo 5 is not Halo 2, therefore it will never be good.
“Community Logic.”
Not happening. Because on of your main arguments is map size, if they were to do that, theyd have to make all the maps smaller and well as decreasing all the ledge heights
Why would I play bigship when I can play Midship/Heretic?
I’m sure if Microsoft & 343 could figure out a way to make hell freeze over … you’d all complain about that, too.
I think having the abilities toggled is a nice compromise, I mean, no one was expecting it. But give 'em a slice and now they demand the whole pie.
It’s a good idea. That’s why in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, if you didn’t like the exo suit, you can play the Classic mode on multiplayer without it. It’s a good way to keep all of your fans happy.

It’s a bit more complicated than that. Sure it be nice if they removed all of those but then there be times where we’d be forced to play them if we wanted to play certain game types which would ruin a lot of proper fans fans that wanted the classic Halo game-play. There’s plenty that would need fixing like the ADS, general aiming system being terrible.
No thanks assuming “Classic” will be considered supa-mega-hodcore-modelolz.
If not, then sure, but I doubt the maps and weapons will be balanced with that in mind.
That wouldn’t work, because there will still be hate for the game having sprint and SA’s at all, and f they removed those completely, halo 5 haters would complain about 343i “milking” the series.
To be honest, this game could be an all or nothing, if they mess one thing up, a lot of us fans will give up.
Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed Halo 5, but it didn’t seem like a Halo i’d want to play for hours on end. This is due to a lot of embarrassing variables in game that come in to play. (Bullet magnetism is just one of them)
If they imported the classic game modes, I believe numbers will speak for themselves.
As for maps, they’ll just grow onto us with time I guess.
Just the way they’ve put forth the idea of putting in the old rocket launcher back in the game, they could do the same with the BR.

Except one one said that.

Is there a way to toggle clamber and ADS and resize the maps? No? Then we still have a problem.

Lol it’s a problem for you and ppl with your opinion it’s not a problem. The reason I say that is because is if ther were attempting to give me a bungie experience I would conplain. Because all those things don’t work with bungies formula but this isn’t bungies formaly and it’s clearly not trying to be. It’s built from the ground up to work with them. I’ve said many times before the perfect sized small map for halo 5 will always be big compared to halo 2 and 3 again not a problem because it isn’t 2 or 3.
The only thing that would please these people if the game was cancelled and no halo games were ever made again they just cannot be reasoned with
