I play a good mix of Arena and WZ, still rarely sprint and it makes no difference for me. Sprinting (to me) is good for nothing but rushing power weapons and chasing. I’m not dodging questions, just pointing things out.

Doesn’t change my gameplay experience but I’ve also been playing since CE so I know how to play Halo without all the armor abilities and sprint. My opinion is that 90%+ of the players fight to keep sprint in Halo because they have little to no experience playing Halo without all the abilities.

Players can very well still do all that as long as they act as team while doing so.
> > > >
> > > > You’re not sounding harsh but players can still be extremely aggressive while playing at a high level/professional level. If the player is a seasoned veteran as in has been around since Halo CE, Halo 2, and/or Halo 3, they can still play pretty darn well without Sprint. If you’re talking about a newer generation player (Halo 4 or Halo 5) then yes, choosing not to sprint would make the player go nuts. More than likely quit within 60 seconds rather than not being able to sprint
> > >
> > >
> > > Being a veteran has nothing to do with skill, or the ability to deal with no sprint. I’m saying not sprinting in halo 5 puts you at a disadvantage. Plain and simple. That wasn’t a problem in CE-3 as the maps were built for a single BMW, not sprint speed.

> > It does has a factor with skill and no sprint. Halo CE came out in 2001 and Halo Reach came out in 2010, that nine years worth of playing Halo with no sprint. That gives veterans who stuck with Halo from the start, a nine year advantage to learn all the tricks, how to’s, and don’ts of playing Halo without sprint or any armor abilities. That’s pretty significant but doesn’t show because most of those players don’t play anymore.
> >
> > It’s not fact either. It’s all 100% based on the player. I placed in the Onyx rankings in several playlists when Halo 5 came out and hardly ever used Sprint. I don’t compete in Arena now because I don’t have the same team I played with all the time and because it’s not worth the energy. You can play at a high level if you and your team are experienced enough to do so. 95% of the time you’re not going to find players like that because the players who grew up with the older Halo’s don’t play anymore.

He does make sense but you just can’t open your mind enough to see that.
I never said that because I’m a veteran I’m good. I’m good because I’ve played hundreds and hundreds of hours since CE was released. I’ve had tremendously more experience playing Halo without all the perks we have now (spartan abilities and sprint) so I know how to play without relying on them. I’m not saying I’m this Godly player or that I’m a pro, I’m simply saying that I am a rare case who can still play pretty well without having to use sprint.
A player can play efficiently without sprint but it is all dependent on a players fighting style. ITS NOT FOR EVERYONE! I simply meant that a player who has been around before armor abilities and sprint, has some knowledge as to how to play without relying on sprint. 90%+ of the players in the Halo community today are from the newer generation. Halo without sprint is a foreign concept to them. I’m not wrong but I’m also saying that its not something every single player can do. It’d be extremely difficult to find a player who can still compete at a high level without using sprint by choice but there are players who can.
