Not because of a complex string of factors such as the expansion of the FPS market (especially CoD), Steam making PC gaming viable again, and people not having the time to game anymore due to college, a career, or families? Pinning the blame for Halo’s decline on a single factor doesn’t make for a healthy discussion.

I’m in college and have a job, and I still play Halo. If the game is good enough, people will make time for it. Simple as that.

> Halo: The only game I’m aware of where Running; Something were all capable off is a feature that’s a debate. I like being able to get from Position A to Be faster; I like the faster pace gameplay and i like how Sprinting has made guns like the AR and SMG useable in Multiplayer. What I think makes this a topic of debate is how it works in regards to your energy shields in Halo 5. I don’t mind that you have to stop running to have your shields recharge, but I think that that didnt happen…people would be happier about it.
Gameplay> realism. Btw you don’t actually get from point a to b faster. It’s all an illusion caused by map size and fov. Halo 1-3 are faster paced games. On midship you’re almost always able to shoot someone. In truth in halo 5 you almost always have to run a little bit before you get to a spot to be able to shoot. The time to sprint across the map in h5 is the same as it is to walk across it in halo 2. They have to make maps bigger to accommodate sprinting so in reality since you’re not always sprinting. You’re moving slower than you typically would

But it did have that slower, walking pace, I guess we can call it, which slowed things down. Think of all those gunfights that were so great when both players had the shoot-while-sprinting perks and each was strafing and jumping and doing whatever it took to outmaneuver the other player’s shots, while trying to land their own. And I agree with you. No wall running. High movement gunfights are so diverse and unique every single time.

The fast sprint speed which is used for travel, makes most gunfights primary decided on positioning and ads.

Ahhh okay I understand now. And since you have shields in halo you’d have to have a real gunfight if you run into someone and it’s all up to skill or who has the stronger power weapon. I agree with you but I do like being able to walk and sprint.

Halo 4 sold 9 million. Halo 3 sold 14 million. Halo 4 was not the highest selling halo title. You might mistake for it being the fastest selling one but I don’t even think it was that

Exactly. Would you be opposed to a system where the movement speed is based on how far the player pushes directionally on the movement stick? So all the way forward would be top speed, and slightly forward would be more of a walk. But your gun would always be up.

I’m not opposing the idea of being able to hold up your gun while sprinting, i just oppose the removal of sprint all together. But if that mechanic was implemented (and done correctly) thatd be cool. (Thanks for a constructive conversation)

Check out my conversation with SealsNinja, we bring up some pretty good points for a no-sprint, but still fast-paced Halo.

I know. I’ve told people the same thing you’re telling me. Just pointing out the irony.

Not because of a complex string of factors such as the expansion of the FPS market (especially CoD), Steam making PC gaming viable again, and people not having the time to game anymore due to college, a career, or families? Pinning the blame for Halo’s decline on a single factor doesn’t make for a healthy discussion.

Would you like to offer an opinion on the mechanic versus stating you simply like it?

I think we should keep sprint in the Multiplayer. I don’t know about the Campaign though.

I’m always baffled when someone says it should stay in MP but not Campaign. At that point even the immersion excuse doesn’t make sense.

How do you all feel about a high base movement speed implemented that acts as a smooth constant sprint with the thumbstick pushed all the way forward? This mechanic would also support the player’s gun always staying up, which creates endlessly more opportunities for intense, fast-paced, gunfights. A constant fast speed paired with a constant gun ready facilitates an environment with constant combat, with little time to breathe between encounters.

Halo was Doom evolved, do people not remember this? Halo wouldn’t be Dooms MP it would simply equal moving at a constant fast speed with the ability to engage in combat all the time.

Yeah I think most if not all the halo community wants to keep Halo, Halo not some other game
