The real question is, why are some people STILL complaining? The game looks OUTSTANDING.

Three types of those were announced and one’s a sniper, which sounds a lot like those damn jackal snipers in Halo 2 and “team annoying” on Waterfront in Reach’s firefight.
I actually find this truthful for myself. Other than that I’ll use it to just zip across the map and not for much else.

Thruster pack is single use right, so that means you cant run up on someone smack them and roll away giggling, which was annoying.
Second thing, the spartan silhouette remains upright throughout the movement meaning you can hit it, instead of doing a ridiculous barrel-roll thing which spazzes out the hitboxes.
I dont think it will be too much of a problem this time. Its probably a bit shorter too.
Really glad they have this.
I always wanted to use Evade more often, now I can!!!
And people can’t -Yoink- about it being OP…
Glad I’ll have another ability to burst out of Melee range with.
I used evade to roll past someone to escape or backwards to avoid a Sword or Gravhammer.
I’m sure a lot of things will be used for melee rushing but not everyone uses it that way.
Because the game is not even out yet and if you complain about a thing that is optional in customs and even MM from day 1 you need something better to do personally I like the T pac

Evade was never even in these “fringe” gametypes to even be "removed and I don’t know why. I love it.

Why are you creating threads of hate/complaint instead of love/praise?
Because how come it’s taken this long to complain about it?
Have you not seen me boast from the beginning that the Thruster Pack would be my new “go to” AA?
And when did Evade get as much “hate” as AL or Jetpack?
Wow, I have questions for you apparently.
I remember when Evade showed up on Reach’s beta as a Elite team slayer match. Everyone was laughing and having a good time when it debuted. Before it showed up on the Beta there was nothing but where is EVADE over the mics. Evade is a life saver in Firefight Limited, you know where the Ai can actually kill you and put up a fight. It actually gave you a fighting chance against the Sword Elite or Hunters when you were in a corner. Too bad it got such bad press because of MP, it was a fun AA.
C’est la vie

Living Dead.
Default settings from day one gave Zombies Evade.
Your move.

Just remember.
Crawlers travel in packs. I doubt it’s going to be just one Sniper Crawler either. More like seven.
All of the Armor Abilities appear to be quite underpowered. This is definitely better than just one ability being too weak, considering it is easier to buff them all instead of just buffing only one or nerfing only one.
But…evade was awesome…
And this looks more awesome…

This guy understands.
Thumbs Up
It’s because we shouldn’t be complaining about anything.
I actually liked evade. Thrusters seem to be a nerfed version of it and the effects are awesome. I don’t know, I like it.
> Thruster pack is single use right, so that means you cant run up on someone smack them and roll away giggling, which was annoying.
Sprint is default now. I do agree it will still be an annoyance though.
> Second thing, the spartan silhouette remains upright throughout the movement meaning you can hit it, instead of doing a ridiculous barrel-roll thing which spazzes out the hitboxes.
Agreed.
> I dont think it will be too much of a problem this time. Its probably a bit shorter too.
We’ll wait and see, at this point, I wouldn’t assume anything.
I don’t think Thruster pack is Evade 2.0.
Im sure many people will find a way to abuse it as they did with jetpack and many other AA’s bungie and 343is testing on balance of AA’s needs to be much much better …
Only time will tell .
> Can’t really have an opinion about something I haven’t tested yet
Agreed. thats why I haven’t chosen wich AA will be my primary one.
> I love Evade. It was awesome, still is awesome. And Thrust Pack is basically a nerfed Evade.
How is it nerfed? From what I heard through interviews and articles, you’er aloud to clear chasms and gaps with it. It shoots you in the direction your heading in then it makes you fall after it stops. I’m liking it better than evade already. Although, evade will still be one of my preferred armor abilities
