Yes jumping is a basic ability but it is how you jump and getting the jumps on maps right that is the skill, this is a good example of a jump/jumps that requires skill and practice, you can’t just do it at the hit of a button.
You can do that with clamber too. For people who feel pride in performing basic actions like jumping a ledge they can chose not to press A to climb. For people who have outgrown the wonders of basic 3D movement and is more focused on the shooting clamber is a nice addition.

That could also chose to miss the jump and go to the bottom if they want to, I fail to see the difference between a clamber and a jump in this situation and fail to see what clambers add to the game, the only thing I see it doing is providing an “easy way out” when you fail a jump.

Wouldn’t clamber make it worse for people who like shooting since it moves your gun when you perform the clamber? When your jumping you at least have your gun out.
Could you please define “basic 3D movement” and expand upon what makes clamber not fit under this definition.
The Halo 4 maps suffered from the unbalanced starts and loadouts during multiplayer. A lot of the maps are actually really cool, such as:
Longbow
Exile
Most DLC maps, as I played in them in MCC and they’re amazing
So I would tell 343i to remake Longbow and a Halo 4 DLC map. I do not support Reach maps, as they are based on the campaign and aren’t designed completely for multiplayer. They should also remake some Halo CE maps.

And that’s wrong because…? God forbid a game these days takes some amount of skill, we certainly can’t have that happen.
Pray tell why they SHOULD be effortless.
Anyways that’s not even the original argument. Map design must change in some areas. Ledges that were intentionally too high to jump before must be raised so that they can’t be clambered either. Maybe that’s not significant, but its a change nonetheless.
Haven, Solace, and Skyline
HAVEN!!! Haven should be in there as well as Valhalla
If anything, maybe Abandon. But I prefer they just went the spiritual successor route and make brand new maps instead of taking them from previous games.
i want to see, from H:reach countdown, power house,and from H4, haven and adrift. these would might work with the new abilities. especially Haven and Adrift. maybe day break
im a sucker for classic maps, but I really didn’t find much flaw in H4 MP maps.
I could see any of them working…
I want to see more fore capabilities in the maps shipped in game
We’re not getting Ragnarok back in Halo 5. Ragnarok was a remake of Valhalla. It wouldn’t feel right if a remake-of-a-remake was added

But we’re already getting Bigship.
The best map ever made, The Pit

Basic player mechanics should be effortless, these aspects need to get out of the way of the player for him to focus his skills on what matters. In this case shooting, positioning, communication, map control, etc.
Any turd of a game can be mastered if you’re skilled enough, that doesn’t mean we should indulge developers to be that lazy. We don’t give a free pass when other developers release outdated controls and player movement, and its the same with Halo. Or it should be.
None. Every map in Halo after Halo 3 is terrible, save for a few decent ones in Reach. Halo 5 should have 12 maps at launch, and 6 of them should be remakes of maps from Halo CE-3 instead of terrible 343i maps. That way at least half of the maps will be good.
Haven, exile maybe longbow.
Maybe skyline… Some I never got to play thanks to there great DLC system (joking) so not sure. Honesty didnt think halo 4 had that great of maps.

> Clamber doesn’t necessitate any map alteration because it was a feature needed for a long time with the already existing maps. Countless times people trying to jump and almost make it, only to fail the jump on any map shows that clamber is needed to smooth player movement. Its something that happens on every map.

> Clamber is another natural ability that should be present not only in Halo but any game that requires moving on a 3 dimensional space. If you can reach it, you should be able to climb it.
for crying out loud if you try to make a jump and fail its either because the person(s) who designed the map didn’t want/intend for you to make that jump or you didn’t do it properly. Adding in clamber doesn’t automatically make more areas of the map accessible it means the developer intended for you to jump, fail and then use clamber to complete the jump. Clamber is unnecessary because the developer intended on you making that jump whether or not you needed to use clamber. All jumps that require clamber could simply be designed to not require clamber. I highly doubt there’s a whole lot of places on truth that you can reach using clamber that you couldn’t already reach using conventional jumping on midship. But I bet if you tried to make those same jumps on truth without clambering you’ll probably miss. Maps need to be altercated so that clamber is necessary to complete jumps. Because if you don’t need to use clamber than why bother with putting it in the game.
