Subject: X to reload

Is there anyone else out there that misses reloading with the X button?
Whenever I go back to halo CE or halo 2 It always just feels so right to reload with X.
Reload was given to halo 1 & 2 in the form or the X button and I hope that it will be brought back in the two upcoming titles. It just feels like halo when there's X to reload. maybe a bumper jumper with an X reload as well? comments?

Sorry to say but ODST will use the x button for the VISR.

Just wait and see I suppose. We already know that by default X is the visor mode. However, there still has yet to be any word about the other various controller set ups in ODST at least to my own limited personal knowledge.

I understand that X will be for VISR in some of the button layouts.
I would just love to see X return as the reload button in maybe a "classic" button layout. idk.

There should be a classic Halo layout that people speculated would be included in Halo 3.

Who knows. maybe if this thread gets enough hits bungie will work their magic and fulfill the request. All we can do is try to be heard.

i was hoping they would bring the x button back but then we could use bxb again maybe and a video shows a odst throwing a bubble sheild also it shows you picking up a weapon with rb. they prolly wont change it anyway

PLEASE BUNGIE IF YOU CAN HEAR MY PLEA, BRING BACK X TO RELOAD!!!

  • 06.13.2009 2:10 PM PDT

I am flatterd that you botherd to look at my signature.

what if bungie adds a system where you can swap button controls.. you know pick each indavidual buttons purpose..

  • 06.13.2009 2:23 PM PDT

Holy f***ing asscrackers on f***ing toast!

Sorry FUC but I prefer the bumper reload. What I don't understand is a preset for the x to reload for people who'd prefer that. Make both presets please Bungie. It'll make everyone happy.

That would be nice, and I cant remember playing a game allowing that in a long time.

NO SOUP FOR YOU

I can adapt to the newer one, but the X reload feels so right!

I never did understand why every game insists on making you use their own control scheme, is it really that hard to make each button mappable? You can do it on all the PC games...
