It would be cheap if you could sprint with the flag, christ, you'd be faster than the tank!!!

Guess what? Spartans are very fast. And no one said you'd be that fast. Last I remember the Chief would only go twice his normal speed, which is not faster then the tank.

Check it out: go to the vehicle section of this site's equipment guide. It tells the speed of you on foot and in a tank.

Thanks for putting that in your signature, that'll tell the dumbasses.

You have to put your weapon away to sprint and then no one could even see if you have the flag or not....total -blam!-ness.

Well what could happen is you grab it with two hands, pull it in front of your body, and it sways back and forth. Thus you still have it out and its visible.

I think that the player with the flag should go like 1.5 the normal speed since he can't but away the flag.

Master Cheif only sprints when he needs to run to the bathroom =P
I still think it'd be funny if you could trip on things when you sprint XD

Maybe he'll just hold his weapons/flag/skull behind him? (hold his hands back with the weapons still in them.

Hey guys there is sprinting but I doubt youd be able to be speedy conzalus and zoom away with the flag. Come on common sense. Bungie is god they will make sure its balanced, PRAISE BUNGIE. Before you sprint you will probably have to wait like 3 seconds to holster your weapon. Bungie also did state the sprint doesnt last for ever, it runs out while your using it then probably recharges after a little liek the shields.

They said Halo 2 will expand the mellee fighting system to make more damage how bout you can choke your enemies with the flag.

Choking enemies with flag would be very hard to do, ingame as a player trying to get right position and all and for making game, what would the button be?

Also it expands melee damage as in combos like 3 smacks in different motions to make it stronger. Exmple in E3 movie he kills brute with a combo melee.
