Reading all these forums about sprint made me think,“If 343 actually removed sprint, would it be a good thing?”. So if sprint somehow got removed, then that would also get rid of spartan charge, which some of us despise. But we would also lose the ability to slide. So its kind of a win/lose situation. Just wanted to put that out there since I’ve been wanting to put it out there
I really do not care…at all. Give me halo with sprint? OK. Give me halo without sprint? OK. I don’t care about sprint halo, if it were to stay (which it probably is) then so be it. If we go back to a light Jog speed, so be it. Neither of the two really make a game for me. Plus, it just makes sense that a spartan can run.

Yeah, its just a thought I had.

It doesn’t bother me either, as long as the game has a good community then its fine.
I still don’t understand what the big deal is with having the option to run faster in a video game.
The problem isn’t sprint, it’s the uselessness of the radar. Seeing as how the radar doesn’t detect anyone until they are practically right on top of you, it makes sprint, coupled with shoulder charge, way over powered. Remember when enemies showed up on the edge of your radar and you had time to prepare and react to someone barreling towards you? It was a good trade off for being able to sprint and charge towards an opponent so it was a tactical choice. Now you can pretty much run right up to someone and they don’t know you’re approaching until it’s too late.
So, to fix the problem with sprint make the radar more effective, like it used to be, and make it more of a choice and less of a guaranteed kill with shoulder charge.
it would make halo pure again. and shed its cod skin

Define pure Halo. I see people throw that around… a lot… and yet no one actually defines it. They act like it’s some sort of secret, uber halo elite code for some sort of legendary game mode that only the truest of blue blooded halo hardcore fans can understand.
Being able to sprint in Halo is a natural evolution of the game, just like being able to clamber up ledges. It makes no sense that a supposedly augmented super soldier can’t run faster than the pace of a brisk jog. Also, sprinting isn’t a CoD only thing. Titanfall, Battlefield are two other shooters that incorporated the ability make your character move faster and close the gap between them and enemies and also make it from cover to cover.
Now, I know a lot of people can’t seem to hit a sprinting target and lust for the days of slow, sluggish spartans to pick off in the open an feel all uber, but the fact of the matter is it made the gameplay imbalanced. With the ability to sprint, at least the guy who has to move through the open has a chance. Realistically, if someone had to move across an open space in a firefight, they would run like hell. So it only stands to reason to allow someone to do this in a video game.
So for everyone who keeps spouting the phrase “pure halo” just remember this: there is no such thing as pure halo. All games steal ideas from each other. Halo had regenerating health, so now every frigging game has it. Half Life added in the need to reload, so after that all games had reloading. It’s called gaming evolution. One guy thinks of something another didn’t so they all implement it into their game to try and improve upon it and one up each other.
Also, you always have MCC to go play if you want sprint-less Halo.
Oh look, another sprint thread. I’ll catalog it next to the 8 other ones.

I’m not saying I’m a pure Halo guy, but I wanted to help you out. I’m pretty sure the “pure Halo” definition would be the way the game worked in Halo 2. No sprint, no clamber, no slide. BR starts and the gunplay would come down to BR strafing battles for the most part. I’d imagine there’d no longer be timers or in game call outs on the power weapons as well.

Yeah, especially since we have Warzone and that has huge maps and sprinting helps get to places faster

I just wanted to put that thought out there but you can think what you want 
it would also increase strafe speed with no sprint

because the maps get stretched and make the maps feel worse than before (older truth was WAY smaller than Halo 5 truth)

haha that broken mess i refuse to support. tell me when it works 100% and halo 3 and 4 are taken out of BTB
I think it would be a good thing, but they would obviously have to make the rest of the game work well or else it won’t change much with the population.
Well A, if sprint was revmoved, the Halo population will go down. B, almost all FPS games have Sprint. C, we have been running sliding and charging in the books but can do it in gameplay? Sprint has made the game faster and maybe some gameplay changes, but it is still Halo.

Sprinting is what makes Halo like CoD?
They both have guns too. Is that another CoD ripoff? What about grenades? Seems like Halo just can’t stop from copying CoD.

A- since sprint weve lost millions in sales, population etc
B- halo should not be like all games, or should it?
C- Lore < Gameplay
We should debate the benefits or cons of such a mechanic, not how one or another person likes it. Weve seen millions leave halo once it began the trend of going “modern”. Is this good? bad?
Using one of the active sprint threads is probably a better idea right now OP
