Thruster pack ability with flag in hand?

Games Halo 5: Guardians
1

So I was watching Ready Up Live’s video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFuTBJ_JX4s and he brought up you can thruster pack with the flag in your hand. So I was wondering, should we have it or not? In my opinion I don’t believe we should.

I think we should. It’s not like you’re going be flying across the map. Also can help avoid grenades and enemies

  1. Ground Pound now exists and needs something to help avoid things.

  2. Explosions are seemingly amongst the largest of all the Halos.

  3. Thruster+Juggle = Long Toss. Learn to use it. Learn when NOT to use it.

I disagree, if you’re the flag runner then you should be treated as a VIP and rely on you teammates for support. Or perhaps make it so when you use the thruster pack you show up on the enemy screen same as when you drop the flag.

Realistically, why wouldn’t you be able to use the thruster pack while holding a flag…

It won’t effect any thing the best you can do with it is move out the way of enemy fire that’s it and really it wouldn’t be fare if flag runners couldn’t thrust. Because they would be even easier targets and it would be hard to defend you self when your moving so slow and the enemy is using his thrusters to avoid shots while shooting back you would basically be a sitting duck. You could drop the flag but that would risk it spawning back to the enemies base.

This absolutely. Plus you already have a flagnum.

Good players will use thrust to throw the flag, but I don’t think you should be able to use any abilities.

I don’t see a problem with it. It’s on a long enough cool down that you can’t just spam it.

I’d say that I’d prefer that the carrier as no mobility abilities while holding the flag, but it’s not detrimental to gameplay from what I’ve seen from RULs and other’s videos.
