A sprint mechanic could’ve been implemented in CE (look at the SPV3 mod in CE’s engine) AND Bungie tried implementing it into H2 early into development, but scrapped it because of pacing issues. It’s never been a matter of “can we add this?” but of “should we add this?” The bit about Halo being Destiny if Bungie “had their way” is utter hogwash too.

I dont care if it is there or not. But it isnt going anywhere and doesnt hurt the gameplay whatsoever in Halo 5… And yes, Bungie said it themselves, Destiny was what they wanted to make… It was Microsoft that made Halo, Halo… Calling facts Hogwash is Hogwash.
Making fun of crybabies living in the past and ‘defending’ something are 2 completely different things.

Can’t have the original play style with sprint
if you could not run then i would not be able to slide or anything

No sprint means that we could only have thrust, stabilizers, and ground pound. Not that much options.
What is the point of not having sprint. Or because a freaking Spartan can’t sprint makes the game good. The only thing not having sprint is good for is just for people who want the old halo back.

Then we should make a classic playlist so we don’t have to talk and talk about this thread and have Modern Halo and classic Halo playlist.

> arena multiplayer at first I thought a no sprint playlist might be optimal but hear me out. I pretty sure the new spartan abilities (save -Yoinking!- spartan charge) would be GENERALLY accepted in a halo game if they werent accompanied by sprint it would feel more competitive more strategic and would also still be recognizable to the fine tuned experience we got in halo 5. Warzone and customs would be a whole other beast entirely retaining ALL the features that made halo 5 successful would keep warzone great and would also allow more options for custom games, for those people that actually wanted to play in a sprint arena type setting they could actually fire up the in game custom game lobby adjust the filter and be good to go! lets face it, sprint has NO place in competitve halo and to argue that it does would just be absurd. this would allow arena maps to continue to be designed the PROPER way and please the vets and basically everyone whos willing to give it a chance and you wouldnt lose much of your sprint loving audience at all because there would still be sprint in the game it would just take a backseat!

I want sprint gone.

I mean, I have a few complaints about some features of the game but controls or needing another button is the one thing I can honestly say I don’t have an issue with.
I know. Not sure what point you’re trying to make here.

Agreed, I’m surprised that the monitors haven’t locked this thread with all the non constructed posts
I’d definitely play the classic and modern playlists. They could use all the map remakes in Halo 5 to make it if they wanted to, some are really scaled perfectly from the old ones.

Being able to move quickly in all directions while shooting.

Exactly. Halo Gods and Monitors to help you and maybe the community. Please lock the thread and we can just talk about making a classic playlist and maps.

Doesn’t hurt the gameplay? Obviously, that’s debatable. Mechanics aren’t implemented based on what they won’t do to the gameplay. So again I ask you, why is it good for the gameplay?

Don’t get me wrong, it is a interesting thread but we made a arrangement to make classic playlist.

Are you joking, I can’t tell… Sprinting is not 2016, we’ve had sprint for over 20 years in games. You think they didn’t have the technology in 2001 to add a effect to make you swing your arms and move a little faster? If they had the technology… Give me a brake… Super Mario bros had sprint (or dash or whatever you want to call it) and that game was made 31 years ago! They made a complete sprint effect for Halo 2 and didn’t add it, not even in Halo 3. Probably noticed it didn’t belong to the game and changed the way it played.
We want to remove sprint and all these super hero moves from Halo because they completely broke what was once unique to Halos multiplayer: map design, weapons, melee encounters, jumps, TTK, map control. Games evolve, yes, but they shouldn’t throw out everything that once made them good or have a broad audience. They are trying to build Halo around these new abilities sprint included and it clearly feels and plays like it.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m good in Halo 5. I just never enjoyed it as much as I did enjoy other Haloes. There are of course other problems with Halo 5, like no veto or vote system, no in game fileshare, no in game ranks in pre game lobby, req system taking away total feel of reward, ranking system, amount of game types etc…

That’s not it at all lol.
Personal I’m better at reach/4/5 than I was hce/2/3. Doesn’t mean I think they’re better games.
Also not sure why you keep telling people to “git gud” when you struggle in gold and platinum.
I thought this discussion was already dead since launch…

The mods aren’t gonna lock the thread because there’s still a discussion going on. The whining and non constructive posts of the opposing side isn’t gonna get a topic locked. You can all just as easily not read/post in this topic if you don’t like it.
Not to mention how this is acting as the universal sprint thread and if it’s locked another one will pop up to take it’s place. This topic is the only thing keeping more from being made.
I have been playing Halo for a long time now practically grew up playing it but if I was to say anything I love 343 has added sprint it makes the game feel more fast and fun to play plus older gamers aren’t always going to be around playing the game and 343 needs to appeal the newer generation of gamers as well so I believe that sprinting is a good option I have very much started to enjoy it but what they could do is add a new team arena type playlist which would have no sprint for people who don’t prefer it.

But Overwatch has taken the gaming world by storm and people playing the game don’t seem to have a problem not sprinting. That alongside Halo’s continually declining sales leaves little to suggest it’s a selling point for “the newer generation”.
