i have been playing halo since 2005 and i’ve been doing well with the changes over the years…
BUT
HOLY #%$^ CAN WE GET RID OF SPARTAN CHARGE AND GROUND POUND !
I can’t play ONE match without some n00b constantly sprinting around the map looking for someone to spartan charge into
What happened to strategy ?
What happened to using your ummmmm what is it again ? oh yeah… WEAPONS and GRENADES ! !!!
Anyone else share my frustration ?
If so please bump this and add your GT with a post in agreement (if you do) to ask 343 to get rid of it
or at the VERY least have it be a remove all shields type of move rather than an instant kill which takes no skill and removes a lot of the classic halo feel that we all love !!
I rarely see ground pound used. It’s probably one of the most unique features I’ve ever seen in any Halo game. I don’t feel like anything should be done with it. I’d really like to see it return in Halo 6.
Spartan Charge, yes it could use some nerfing. But I feel like people exaggerate about it. Because, yes there will always be that one player or two players that abuse certain things. Just like in Halo 4, and in Halo Reach. This is coming from my prospective, I’d say maybe 1 out of 5 matches I get spammed by it. And that’s just on a bad day. If it returns in Halo 6, I wouldn’t say no to it getting nerfed. It really does need decreased range.
that is true that ground pound is MUCH less of a severe problem than spartan charge is…and yes if i had to pick one of the two to go, without question spartan charge

Agreed, I use them sparingly and when it’s appropriate. I’ve never been able to run around an entire match charging everyone without getting decimated; I honestly do not believe that it really can’t be used that way, as it’s only effective from behind, and head on Spartan Charge is easily / often countered.

No, <mark>do not bump or add GT’s</mark>. Bumping and starting petitions are not allowed on Waypoint. What is allowed is voicing your opinion in a constructive manner.
My 2 cents: even with Spartan Charge and Ground Pound being a thing, shooting and grenades are still the bread and butter of Halo. I don’t consider SC or GP usage to be an issue or widespread.
I can’t say I’ve first hand seen people run around the map just to spartan charge people. I use it if I’m already sprinting around a corner and someone happens to be there.
But I wouldn’t say it’s my primary source of attack, I always use my guns and if I get spartan charges, I’ll just have to remember to watch around corners and watch for sprinting players.

What about crysis 3 and destiny? They have ground pound.
I don’t think many people realize how Ground Pound can be used to the fullest… you can make very smart plays with it based off of your place in the environment and how you use elevated geometry around you.
Spartan Charge is very imbalanced and needs to be redesigned completely. The idea of it is fine, the implementation is not.
Problem with Spartan charge isn’t the charge but people not showing up on radar when sprinting.
I think ground pound, Spartan charge are pretty crap compared to having equipment and other abilities that should of returned as equipment and power ups. Or even weapon attachments.

I can’t say I’ve played enough Destiny to know that there’s a ground pound feature in the game. And I’ve never even played Crysis 3.
But this is more Halo related. And I feel that the feature is a great addition to the game.
What do you mean what happened to grenades? This game is a spam fest, like Halo 2. The things are practically mini nukes now! One guy throws one off and everyone else follows.
Ground pound isn’t used much. And very easy to avoid or kill em.
Spartan charge well that should go. I finally gave into using it. Lol makes my kill counts in some games look like I might have some skill
