I’ll probably do fast play through through SP using some game pass trail membership at some point (or getting it used) but I’m getting sick of beeing treated like a seccond class fan just because 343 know people like me won’t abendond the franchise just that easy, after all, I’m through almost as many years of Halo games I don’t enjoy compared to those I do and I still consider myself a huge fan still…

Pretty sure most of the other fans of Halo 5 wouldn’t appreciate one boring and repetitive BMS either and many either wouldn’t buy Halo Infinite. One things for certain- most of us definitely won’t stick around long without sprint so the population would decline very rapidly with one boring BMS. Stripping away our option to sprint in Halo is completely unacceptable would be a total slap in our faces by 343i.

He’s most likely a troll, all he does is spew out the same thing over and over again about how Halo Infinite needs to have sprint and seems to refuse to respond to any counter arguments like mine and tsassi’s.

With all due respect I’m trying to not argue with a moderator over an opinionated issue that you (clearly) staunchly disagree with. Also the specific question you’re asking has already been discussed (at length) so I’m only trying to add new things of value to the discussion. I have respectfully responded line-by-line with plenty of anti-sprinters already, where I’ve thoroughly explained and defended my pro sprint perspective. And yes, I do understand the irony but I’m merely just countering their argument with the exact same logic they tried to apply first (So to be fair and impartial in this case; shouldn’t you also take issue with their anti sprint point as well?)

You had no problem asking him a question on the topic. You never answered me when I asked you this question and I’m obviously not a moderator, not to mention that Tsassi wouldn’t abuse that position.

If you’ve already answered this question before: quote it, copy/paste it, or direct us to where you did so.

I’m not suggesting the moderator will abuse anything. It’s out of respect and prudence to be use caution when approaching a moderator; especially over an opinionated discussion where there is zero doubt that the moderator completely disagrees with your opinion. The negative effects of having just one BMS have been discussed at length just a few pages back here so there’s no reason for me to continue to circle around and round on this with you. Also if I’ve replied to you and FightingChances at length and am still waiting for you guys to reply to multiple points of mine but I’m not demanding that you do so either. Why should anyone be expected to respond to every single point anyway? That’s an unrealistic expectation to hold against someone in an online forum.

Your skewed notion that ā€œTens of millions of Halo fans,ā€ somehow left because of movement mechanics is ridiculous and there will always zero evidence to support such a claim because it’s false. Sprint has actually pulled more fans into the franchise because people like the option to walk or run in Halo, versus being stuck with one boring and repetitive BMS such as with the MCC. And thankfully more and more true fans are flooding to these forums to debunk those false claims that sprint is somehow bad for gameplay. Sprint is exactly what Halo Infinite needs to be the successful, next-level title that it needs to be.

Nope, you’ve never addressed that specific question. I went through all your posts in this thread, all I found was an instance of another user posing a similar question, and you avoiding giving a proper answer. You must’ve called having a single base movement speed ā€œboring and repetitiveā€ or some variation of at least ten times in this thread, but not once have you properly addressed what makes sprint so exciting that can’t be done with a fast base movement speed.

A general observation from this thread is that your position seems to be of lamenting how ā€œboring and repetitiveā€ not having sprint is at every chance you get, complaining how the pro-sprint side has made many valid points which the opponents are ignoring, and making making unspported claims about how many fans like sprint, and how many fans would quit without it. Yet you don’t tell what are the valid points the pro-sprint side has made, you criticize others for making unsupported claims. You stir the pot by constantly saying things that obviously will get a response from opponents of sprint (like constantly cramming the phrase ā€œone boring and repetitive BMSā€ to posts when it doesn’t contribute any substance to them), but then say you don’t like to argue.

I think you should re-evaluate your position in this thread, and open yourself up for a less one-sided discussion, if you want to contribute something of value to this thread. Unintentional as it might be, as of right now your position seems to be one of hypocrisy and baiting, rather than earnest, open discussion.

I’ve filled up the character limit with respectful, complete, and earnestly open-minded responses to anti sprinters multiple times. I’m completely open to a two-sided discussion but you have to understand where pro sprinters are coming from. We’ve suffered through three AAA Halo titles with just one BMS and we were set free from those chains once Bungie finally added in sprint to Halo. Sprint is something we truly enjoy in halo and I’ve offered up several in-depth points to support keeping sprint in Halo (Along with multiple, full line-by-line replies to A6ENT C, FightingChances, and others in this thread). On the other hand I’ve met other types of short sighted replies with the exact same anti sprint logic they’re using but I’m somehow being singled out? Again (and with all due respect) it seems really unfair and bias to target someone who responds to others with the exact same line of reasoning but avoiding to take any issue with the ā€œflawed logic,ā€ which started it.

  1. That’s purely speculation.
  2. Errrr … NO. I don`t like them.

You try to claim you’ve responded to ā€œevery single point,ā€ that I’ve posted but yet just a few pages ago you literally just dodged an entire issue (full 7500 character) reply of mine with this.

Of course at this point it’s becoming harder to tell if it’s you or A6ENT C, as you’re both responding the exactly same way to the same posts… o O

All I did was respectfully offer you counters as to why sprint is better for Halo and should absolutely be in Infinite.

That Infinite will definitely have classic gameplay was speculation. Pointing that out isn’t speculation.

That you don’t like the new mechanics doesn’t mean there aren’t older Halo fans who do.

There are valid arguments to level against these mechanics and constructive ways to communicate your preference, but this neither of those things.

Please for the love of God let it be a classic Halo. Or at practice a portion the of the game is a classic Halo experience. That’s really all I will ever truly want.

I agree. Classic Halo needs to return.

> I doubt that classic game mechanics will be abruptly added in just like that. There is such a split in the community about classic versus new halo, such that if they went either direction they would lose half of their community. So they have to do something in the middle, personally I would be fine with classic Halo, but I would also be fine with the removal of just Spartan charge and ground pound. I would be annoyed if both of those are still in the game, but all I really want is classic art style and good campaign.

We all doubted that new gameplay mechanics would be abruptly added to a long standing formula, but here we are and Halo as a franchise has never been in a worse spot than it is today. If they don’t revert the Spartan Abilities this one is again a hard pass for me and I know that would also be the case for anyone I know that plays Halo. I’m no exaggerating, any person real or online that I knew to play Halo does not anymore. They share my opinions as well, the new halo games suck.

There were too many quotes that quoting your post made every word disappear, but still count in the character counter. tsassi can check if Agent and I the same person or not.

I may be more pushy, but you’re the one projecting that I have an opinion on this matter, and placing your own opinion as fact. I do, but that’s irrelevant to observations that can be seen by everyone if they’re looking for it.

I wasn’t suggesting that you two are the same person I was saying that you two are responding the same way to the same exact posts… That just makes it harder for me to know which person I’ve already responded to. Sorry for any confusion and sorry for any perceived ā€œdodgingā€. :smiley:

I’ll review the posts later (when I have time) and properly respond to you on anything I may have missed. This thread is also very convoluted at this point (understandably so with the generalized title) and it is moving so quickly. Thanks for your respectful respectfully responses on an issue you disagree with me over and thank you for your patience.

chalk me down as a no sprinter.

i used sprint in reach and it was op most op thing in the game i dont care what anybody says about armor lock. I like the old halo where you didnt have sprint or evade to bail you out of a strategical mistake
