By the way, you sound like Donald Trump. You have the voice with toxic opinions just to get people to listen to you. Without any facts. Classic.

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!

Xbox One is selling faster than the 360, so I’m not sure what you’re on about.
Another one of these, really?
stop complaining about sprint and thinking you’re special because you know why YOU don’t like it. people have been complaint about sprint since reach. As long as it is use properly, which imo it did in h5, then it’s fine
Dude, this guy has been posting all sorts of weird stuff, it’s getting old.

Standardized mechanics mean nothing when they add no new game play in halo. We would have been better off without the mechanic, especially when 343 had to waste so much time integrating sprint in every part of halo.
To all the pro-sprint people, please watch this video. Favyn does an excellent job of breaking down how sprint effects halo in so many more ways than just how fast your Spartan moves. The video does a great job of explaining why anti-sprint halo fans are so passionate about halo not having sprint. It truly does change the game at a fundamental level. Watch the video and then ask yourself when it comes to a no sprint halo, “could you adapt?” The Benefits of a NO SPRINT Halo! How Movement/Mobility affects more than just Speed! - YouTube
Edit: I don’t know how to make a link but paste it in your search bar and watch it!
What the heck is wrong with sprint in Halo? The only reason why I see these people making these topics is because they want the next Halo to be like Halo 3-ish. If you want Halo 3 then go to BTB in TMCC, there is a bunch of Halo 3 fanboys you can join there that vote Halo 3 120% of the time.

> OBJECTION!! Sprint is amazing. It helps so much and gives a depth to Halo that we haven’t had before. Just look at Halo reach. It was so much good. Silly how one little innovative mechanic can completely make people lose their minds…
Its not innovative. There are more cons than pros.

agree, and other thing, how the hell does he want to conserve spartan charge but delete sprint, it has no -Yoinking!- sence, spartan charge is imposible without sprinting.
Change is key what 343 is doing is adapting to their surroundings for example being like COD which I don’t mind sure it was fun playing halo 1-3 but that’s because I was 10-13 years old when I played those games. So I too adapted to this “sprint” mechanic.

It adds nothing new? Seriously? It adds another level of strategy to the game with its own benefits and trade-offs.
Look at your average Arena match in Halo 5. People are still working as teams to control portions of the map and the map’s weapons. They just added in a handful of new abilities that players have to master that, again, add another layer of strategy to the game. This is much better than in 4 when you had loadouts, armor abilities, and ordnance drops that ruined that dynamic.

> > I think sprint is essential and also critical when it comes to dangerous situations. Think about it; without sprint, how will we able to avoid enemy fire before reaching cover? How will one be able to escape a collapsing bridge(like the one in Battle of Sunaion)? How will one be able to reach the objective at the end of the campaign level before succumbing to death with the enemy right behind you(like the flood for instance when you are trying to reach the goal for the index on The Library.)? I think sprint was added to make the game feel more realistic. Making the game mechanic essential for some critical situation. Without sprint, we’d be walking around like a robot with some form of limited mobility. Take it from C3po, “Cursed my metal body, I wasn’t fast enough!”

> So, basically, you’re implying that sprint is a “Runaway Like A Whimpering Grunt” button? Sprint isn’t for running away from danger, Spartan, it’s for running towards it!
I’m just saying how it could be useful in some situations. I’m not implying that sprint is a “Runaway Like A Whimpering Grunt” button as you called it, that would be an act of cowardice. Think of some time trial where you are trying to reach the goal. Without sprinting as much, the Spartan would just make him/herself an easy target. Remember on two Betrayals or some other levels of the campaign where you are trying to reach a vehicle or activate some sort of switch, but the only the only problem is that a certain location is heavily guarded. On Two Betrayals, the Covenant and the Flood are fighting each other, too distracted to notice that the Chief was nearby. The Banshee was there waiting for him to pilot it. But before the Banshee could be reached, the enemy manage to spot him, and decide to blow him up with the Wraith. There were times where I wish I could sprint in the previous game when playing the Master Chief collection. So basically, I’m implying how it would have been useful in those situations if they were to occur again in future games.

Alright. This sort of argument has to stop. THIS is what is breaking the community. If you want to help Halo, find the middle ground for both player groups. Whilst this sounds hard, there is in actuality a simple way to fix this: Classic Playlists. Classic playlists give veterans a place to play the game whilst letting 343 try adding things to the game.
This video by BDobbinsFTW is a great explanation: Why Halo 5 Should Bring Back Classic Halo Multiplayer Playlists - YouTube
Lets try to get bullet magnet removed first before anything else.I miss when Halo was about skill and not letting a machine do all the work. They can leave aim assist for all I care. I miss the sound of the bullet wizzing passed my head knowing someone nearly took my head, now all I get to do is watch the contrail miss while the bullet takes my face
Nope. I loved halo 2 and I had the most fun in H2 and H3, but it wasn’t because we didn’t have sprint. I actually went back and played some H2 recently and it felt awfully slow. I would not like it if they took sprint away.
I mean 1, there is a slight delay when you’re sprinting and stop to shoot. 2. If you’re getting pelted by bullets you can’t sprint. Sprint is such a non-issue in this game, I do not understand why some people are hating on it and think removing it will bring the “purists” back. I was a “Halo purist” during reach and Halo 4 because it just went way too far from its roots, but I’m not longer in that category with Halo 5. I think it’s a perfect balance between the old Halo’s and the new expectations of a first person shooter. Halo 5 took a drastic step back from where Halo 4 was heading, and I honestly think mechanics wise, H5 is the best Halo yet.
Not as fun as Halo 2 and 3, but that was because I was younger, had more friends online that I played consistently with, among other things. Definitely not because it didn’t have Sprint.
No, just no, if you can’t play is you fault, I can’t imagine warzone without sprint it will take around 10 min just to go for the other enemies core, more Avilities involve more player tactics, if you don’t like it go play mine craft, halo evolve deal with it or learn how to play, at the beginning I usually get 5 to 10 kills then Whit practice I get 20 kills, now I get usually 50 kills in warzone, it needs more train? Yes, but is ok.
Not to mention, once you get ranked into high diamond/onyx/champ people sprint a whole lot less than they do at lower ranks. they sprint with a purpose, they don’t just run around sprinting aimlessly. So like I said earlier, having sprint in the game is pretty much a non issue for higher ranks. But it’d definitely become an issue if they decided to remove it.

Lol, according to your service record you haven’t even played Halo 3 or Halo 3: ODST. Of course you would want to keep sprint

> Thoughts? :3
Agreed
Let’s go with the Classic playlist instead. Not as a “This-will-fix-everything” addition, but as a “This-is-the-best-we-can-do-without-ruining-the-game-for-anyone-else” addition.
Outright removing the sprint mechanic would make some players unhappy, to put it as lightly as possible. Adding a Classic playlist would preserve the current H5 experience, as to not anger the community that enjoys the game as it is now, myself included, while also adding a way to satisfy those who wish for a classic, fun, and sprintless experience, myself included. It would only benefit us and them. The community is satisfied (as for this issue, that is), and 343i could get more sales from those who won’t buy the game because it’s not as much like the old Halo games as they’d like.
To the anti-sprint community: would you be satisfied if a Classic Slayer, BTB, and/or Objective playlist was added, or will you only be satisfied with the abolition of sprint? I don’t mean that in a negative way. I just want to know if this would work for you, and if we should try to make this happen.
