I guess they have bigger fish to fry at the moment, but I think it was either forgotten or overlooked, but there should ABSOLUTELY be a universal boxer control scheme. It is next to impossible to switch from game to game with the button layout being different each time. Plus, I don’t want to be FORCED to switched to another setup.
Wow I came on here to ask the same thing! I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed this. I seriously don’t understand how they could make reload X for Boxer on Halo: CE, Halo 2, and Halo 4, but unnecessarily change it to RB for Halo 3. If button layouts have the same name, they should be nearly exact across all four games and use vacant keys as new buttons. I really like your LB idea for equipment/armor, btw.

Oh I know its there, but the button layout is completely different for each game. Halo 1 and Halo 4, RB is grenade. Halo 2 and 3, it is B, but in Halo 3, RB is reload while X is reload in Halo 2. Literally, the layout is different in some way in every single game and it is so frustrating when going from game to game.
Icecold X, I like that layout, but I would make one change (which is why they should let us customize this!!!):
LT: Melee
RT: Shoot
LB: Flashlight/Equipment/Armor Ability
RB: Throw Grenade
A: Jump
B: CROUCH (I use toggle so that’s why I would rather have Sprint on the Left Stick)
Y: Switch Weapon
X: Reload
Left Stick: Movement/SPRINT
Right Stick: Look/Zoom
DPad: Switch Grenades

Yeah, this isn’t urgent, but it would be nice. The problem with Halo 3 is that the bumpers reload dual wielded weapons individually, but I’d rather deal with the weirdness of having X be reload and LB be reload left weapon than have to remember what the button is for throw grenade each game. At the very least, update the Halo 2 controls like they did with Halo 1. I’d be surprised that they didn’t do it to begin with if everything else wasn’t so broken.
Yeah, I think its safe to say that it will probably never be addressed because the game itself needs a lifetime to fix all the bugs, but this is just another to add to the list.
I find myself sticking to one game for a few days, then switching to another game. If I were to play 3 different games and get halo 1, halo 2 and halo 3 in 3 consecutive games, I would be SCREWED.
