If fall damage is being removed, I hope special attention will be paid to “The Spire”. In my opinon, you SHOULD get killed when you jump off the top.

If it get’s removed, than only in the classic playlist. The classic playlist will only contain the 6 maps so don’t worry about Spire.
Good point, OP.
Since it may indeed be up for consideration with Spire, I agree: THAT fall should definitely kill you.
I will be so very confused on how it will be CE Classic gaming with fall damage removed and jump height increased.

It wouldn’t kill John 
Then again, with his luck, he’d probably get snatched by a giant bird and carried to safety before he hit the ground.
It would kill him in Campaign, where the Spartan you’re playing is actually John 
Not because he hits the ground, by any means, but because he has a heart attack at the prospect of hitting the ground from a high fall.
If he actually reaches the ground before this happens, he’s all fine

I think that given how far Reach is from H1/2/3, ‘Classic’ refers to the three of those rather than H1, even though the Title Update is coming alongside H1’s release.
Fall Damage is ONLY being removed in specific gametypes. It’s not going away in Invasion or Big Team.
The Update isn’t a general update, Reach still plays exactly like Reach. But CLASSIC is revamped.

It confuses me how everyone thinks that “Classic” only pertains to Halo:CE settings. I’d assume seeing how the maps are from Halo:CE, and Halo 2, that it would a blending of gameplay.
Maybe I missed something, but where did you guys read that they were removing fall damage???
I don’t confuse when I speak of classic.
There’s classic CE and classic Halo2. The 2 games a very different, considering jump heights, fall damage, regenerating health, destructible vehicles, vehicle boarding, dual-wielding, uber-amounts of aim-assist additions, assault being added, etc.
Halo2 map = Halo2 classic style.
Halo:CE map = Halo: CE classic style.

In one of their first Halo Weekly Bulletins, they announced that we can turn fall damage on and off in the custom settings.

Wow, ya see the context there? A toggled option = removal. That’s jumping the Death Star.
I HATE fall damage! A Spartan can fall from space, get up & walk off But, if S/he jumps off a high platform & hits the ground they Die… I don’t get it

It’s a gameplay mechanic. It hasn’t to be necessarily logical. The same you could say about melee damage.
Or they should just limit the Spire to Invasion since it sucks in every other playlist.

Assault was in Halo CE, look in the CTF gametypes.
people lets use common sense here. If fall damage gets removed why would you die from falling off the spire. Do I have to get dora.

Honestly, I don’t think anyone would survive a 10 foot drop while wearing a 1 ton suit.
