I know most people can’t stand the advanced movement from Halo 5 and I agree that spartan charge and ground pound could be annoying and can go. HOWEVER the the thruster pack was perfect, it gave each firefight an unique twist and allowed me as an aggressive rusher a way to maneuver without being so over the top like the grapple shot. Thruster should come standard as you spawn and not something you can possibly find. I’ll never understand how people hate the thruster but think flying around like spider man is okay or halo- like. We need the thruster because now the game feels very one dimensional and old.
The thruster will be an ability like the grappleshot if we can trust the leaked equipment from the beta files.

If you don’t constantly have it than I’ll be pretty bummed. I feel like now I have to play slower

I was completely there with you. I really enjoyed the thruster in Halo 5 and did really miss it in the first flight. However over time I changed how I played or found I didn’t need it as much.
There’s always room for custom games/LTMs where players have infinite thrusters and no other equipment.
i don’t miss it too much as my controller is already busy enough now with equipment instead.
Because of the advanced movement and particularly thruster H5 Haas a lot of aim assist especially bullet magnetism. This would make the game extremely difficult for PC players using kbm to play. It also made the game difficult for newer players.
They’ve opted for a more classic Halo that I think will appeal to the widest audience, ultimately will be very fun.
Maybe they’ll make a H5 playlist with the H5 magnum and thrusters. They made a Halo CE playlist on H5 so it’s definitely within their idea pool.
Don’t get me wrong but I really liked the thrusters in Halo 5. By habit I tried to thruster in Infinite … However, I really like how Infinity is playing without everyone having thrusters. Gives the game a better feel without everyone diving and dodging around. But I do agree it would be a fun game mode if everyone spawned with it but I don’t think it should be a core feature for rank or anything.
I am afraid that having the thrusters as an equipment on the map may be one of the more useless equipment in the game. It won’t really give you an offensive advantage similar to the other equipment.

Totally agree, I love thruster pack and I don’t understand too this paradox about 343 making a slower game but adding a grapple. Adding thruster pack as an item by default would be perfect

Don’t underestimate the utility the thrust brings in a game that’s not designed on the principle that everyone has it. Players are a lot less careless with grenades knowing you can’t thrust out of the blast zone and it still provides a great chase/escape advantage.
Also being able to have a thrust to include in your strafe will definitely improve your chances in 1v1 encounters.
