This is… Ugh.

When people think of Halo, most of them probably would not reflect positively about how they couldn’t sprint. Sprint is simply necessary to make the game reasonably realistic (giving players more options to work with) and doesn’t effect much more than the speed or flow of the game. To put it simply, it’s faster but I don’t think that’s really true due to the increased map size.

I would prefer to keep sprint in Halo.

If it was the first game you owned why are you over here trying to stat flame.

It makes sense to have sprinting in Halo 4 and 5 because its a natural thing us humans can do. The real problem is the fact that they removed armor abilities altogether. I loved the jet pack. Great for getting around places. I also loved the bubble too. Bringing back armor abilities would make Halo Halo again. Not the removal of sprint.

Maybe in Halo 6 we should be able to do back flips, kick people and even better, have a cup of tea because I like my halo to feel like a Sims simulator. If we can do it, so should Spartans be able to do it. Forget the gameplay and what has worked.

I can’t take this seriously because every time I read it I think of the h3 ODST kick animation and start laughing

Best way to answer this and leave it be to be honest.
I enjoy sprint to the point where if I went back to play an older game that didn’t give the option Id sit there and shove my analog stick down till it allowed sprint even thought it’d be impossible.

Because a lot of people have problem with sprint.

What does sprint bring to those gamemodes that improve on the experience and dont just take away from it?

I myself am an old-school player and now prefer sprint over no sprint. … so just keep no sprint in customs. Plus as u can see by the likes. …u have more people wanting sprint. …

If you looked at the polls before halo 5 launched anti-sprint almost always won, the only reason pro sprint is winning now is because millions of people have left the franchise since reach

Here you see a prime example of pro sprint people having no idea how sprint acually affects gameplay and thinking being able to sprint away from gunfights is good, halo ce was easily the fastest paced game and had huge maps with no sprint.

That’s what I was wondering. Then you obviously don’t know how the other halos worked and why they had a huge population especially halo 3

Sprint you can’t defend your self at all. I think we should keep sprint and remove all guns keep ground pound, Spartan charge so when you run its fair…

Now me being serious I prefer no sprint even though I’m not a pro it required a little more strategy in the game. plus with no sprint it prevents people from running away and actually getting into combat more. Now it’s they take a shot they run like cowards.

Halo 2 has 15 missions and each of them are long and fun with good level designs, halo 3 had 10 missions that were slightly shorter but was still very fun with a good story, halo 5 has 15 missions, three of which you just walk around in, only 3 of which you play as chief in, bad level design, and a bad story. Halo 5 has hands down the worst campaign

It’s a thread that could actually change the gameplay of halo for the better

Because a lot of the same 10 people have a huge problem with sprint.

If the only thing that needs to be done in Halo 5 to make it perfect in your eyes is the removal of sprint I say 343i make a playlist removing the ability, I know you aren’t the only one that believes this but I’d like to see how popular that “Sprintless” playlist becomes if it were ever brought into the matchmaking playlists.

> Halo 6 could be the game EVERYONE wants by removing sprint in campaign (yes because who the -Yoink- needs TWO movement speeds in campaign???) and
> 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!
> Thoughts? :3

Spartan charging when ever would be so over powered and would suck a moving so F.cking slow a turtle could beat you that’s the one thing I like about halo 5 and 4

Wich is dumb but what ever. I mean the fact that people don’t like sprinting.
