> SPRINT IN HALO 6? YES OR NO.

polls like that pop up every 6 days or so, there have been huge polls in the past on all major communites (waypoint, reddit, TeamBeyond)…if they are in favor of removing sprint, 343 will smash them down as “self selection bias” if they are in favor of keeping sprint, well everything is alright I guess…

I find sprint good and bad I’ve played them all its fun to have it but when you sprint in halo 5 you don’t regen you’re sheld and that’s what most people do realize is that so when that happens so I did like it for that resone and that only

There should be sprint in Halo 6 because it makes the game flow but they should get rid of spartan ability.

I don’t think the removal of sprint will do. As you can see most people do want sprint kept. What I would like to see, personally, is that sprint is on a timer like in halo 4 and that recovering from it is slow. That way spartan abilities can still be a thing in halo 6 but there is more of an impact on whether to sprint or not.

To make it Halo again, better remove the Prometheans.

It’s too bad that 343 is not confident enough in thier game design to come out of thier ivory tower to discuss mechanics and design decisions.

A mechanic that makes you constantly stop and start and removes the ability to do anything but move forwards adds to flow?

You don’t HAVE to sprint. Damn.

They could just not stretch the maps. Then you know, they wouldn’t be plagued by people sitting a mile away with rifles and snipers picking you off as you try to cross the mile of no man’s land between every part of the map.

If you want smaller maps play Arena. Problem solved.

However, in Halo 5 they implemented further use for sprint (Spartan charge, that is). Although traditionally Halo did not have sprint, it is a feature that they have placed in the game and there is a place for it in the more modern games. Looking back at halo 3, it was rather slow paced. You had your Primary weapon, secondary weapon, a wide verity of grenades, and a large selection of equipment (e.x Bubble shield, Regeneration field, ect.) And the combination of those features made the game play interesting. But the game does need to evolve, and what better way to do that then implementing small and convenient features that keep the game play interesting. However displeasing my opinion may be to some, just hold on for a moment. Sprinting speeds up a traditionally rather sluggish game play (And that is not bad.) into a very fast paced game. But the sprint and thrust pack does add more options when it comes to tactical maneuvers. It makes it easier to flank enemies, and retreat when necessary. Another note; Sprinting in a slayer match will decrease your performance, as it does take time for you to stop and raise your weapon. But that is just my opinion. Further thoughts?

Yeah, it does depend on the game mode. Like if warzone had sprint, I’d be totally cool with it. Maybe even BTB. But let’s not let sprint break our competitive experience.
Then, is it really subjective, if sprint adds skill and actual depth to the gameplay? Because I have given you evidence of sprint taking away skill and because it doesn’t take any skill, it doesn’t add any actual depth. So prove me wrong…

But arena has sprint…
So take it out, no bad maps, skillful gameplay, everybody wins!

You don’t HAVE to sprint. Just because you don’t want sprint doesn’t mean everybody else doesn’t want it.

And?

How does that solve anything?

You don’t make any sense.

It’s not about having smaller maps. It’s about cutting down on the stretched, wide open areas in a map.

You should read some of the thread because you clearly don’t understand what people are complaining about.

I read it and I do understand it. I think I make sense enough if you still want to talk to me.

Does anyone know why 343 is persisting to keep sprint?

Why do you think not sprinting solves any of the issues people have with sprint?
