One of the best improvements I've heard of so far in Halo 2 is definitely running! Not being able to do that was so annoying.

But sadly there doesn't seem to be any news of other movement advances. Anyone heard of any?

What I'd like to see is the ability to dive and roll (how come the enemy Elites can do it but MC can't?). It could be mapped pretty easily... maybe move sideways + jump + crouch together? It's really annoying to suddenly see a rocket coming right at you and only be able to "trot" out of the way...

And then melee! In Halo, like in all FPS games (that I've seen anyway), it is pretty crappy. Sure, Halo will never be Soul Calibur (you kinda need 3rd person for that anyway) but there should be some real fighting, blocking, and dodging options.

I think Meelee combos and sprinting were both disabled for the E3. Oh, and leaning too. But I think it'll still make it to retail, why would they say they'll add new stuff and only add half of it?

[color=gold] I dont know about you, but I value the melee very much so in Halo. I rely on it to kill people instantly, and to do major damage when double melee. You really should practice with doing melee, once your better, yoru kills will go up [/color]
