Can we have it please??
Throughout the series, more and more customisation options have been given to us to change campaign and multiplayer experiences.
Please allow us to also customise our controller layouts!

Seconded.
It’s not like Halo’s controls are ultra complex, but I’d really love to assign each action/command to any button I please. I mean, if I wanted to shoot by clicking RS, I ought to be able to do so. =)
there was a thread like this somewhere in multiplayer (i’m sure it’s now likely buried pages back…) but i’d love this too.
I disagree. Using each button setup allows for different advantages. Bumper jumper can jump but doesn’t like Jetpack. Finding the preset combination that best suits your style is part of the game. I used to roll boxer now I’m a bumper jumper.

I use bumper jumper too!
You can find the best combination by button mapping. It gives absolute freedom.
And coldfusion, as a fellow bumper jumper, what do you think of a few modifications to the current bumper jumper layout in Reach? Here they are:
A -> Armour ability
X -> Reload, Contextual Button
B -> Change grenades
Not major changes, but having X as reload helps to avoid confusion with other shooters and most of them have X as the contextual, reload button.
Only other game I know of that has B as reload is Left 4 Dead
Eh… no. That would be kinda stupid and wouldn’t be Halo.
OP: this is a good idea.
Naysayers: just use stock settings.
> Eh… no. That would be kinda stupid and wouldn’t be Halo.
I’m not saying to take out the current built-in layouts. By all means keep them in there!
But also allow players to customise each individual button and its function
> Eh… no. That would be kinda stupid and wouldn’t be Halo.
I’m all for keeping Halo you know… Halo…
But this is stretching it. Button mapping making Halo not Halo? Their are already like a billion preset combos why not let us have the extra freedom. It wouldn’t make it any less Halo.
sure… as long as theres a couple default settings for the lazy people like me.
I definitely agree. One of the things that’s bugged me for a lot of the games is there was no one set up that suited me. Maybe this button should’ve been somewhere else, or what have you. I see no reason why they couldn’t, so I’m all for implementing it.
> Eh… no. That would be kinda stupid and wouldn’t be Halo.
I didn’t know customizing a controller was anti-Halo.
I’m ok with Recon layout,but i would make it easier to me if i couuld use X as recharge button.
Im too suited well with default throughout the series and recon for reach
If you get button mapping, then I better get keyboard and mouse capability.
HELL YES! Every video game should have button mapping. For all those people saying no, you can still have the controls how you do now but this lets everyone have a control scheme they are comfortable with.
Agreed.
More options are almost always good.
