While I don't do MLG I do prefer sprint over no sprint. I would like to see sprint back as the only AA in Halo 4.

I want the movement speed to feel controllable, not slippery and unnatural like a zombie.

I love Sprint but it's not necessary. There wouldn't be any problem if it were omitted.

120% Movement and No AAs what so ever.


AA's are not good for gameplay, they're all a crutch. Period.
Adapt.


Adapt to not being able to rely on

A. Sprint to retreat
B. Armor lock to save yourself
C. Jetpack to negate map control
D. Camo to hide
I prefer Hologram so I can play with myself.


Not surprised.

Alright, next question:

4sk or 5sk DMR? 4sk or 5sk with sprint or no sprint and movement speed increase?


Theres are huge debate still going on about this on the MLG forums you know? Community is like divided by it.

I personally like 4sk, no sprint. I don't mind 5sk though.

Personally I prefer 5sk, but that's just me. I've played both settings (not extensively though) and I preferred a few facets of 5sk - for starters you can play 5sk with 90/100 dmg/res so power weapons and grenades require more accurate use, I also felt that it remained somewhat consistent with the rest of Reach. Admittedly that doesn't hold any merit for the competitiveness of the settings, but I do like being able to know that the weapon is still a 5sk across all game modes.

As for 4sk, that weakens power weapon indirectly by empowering every player by default, the even number of shots to kill also makes the perfect teamshot more natural. However I also think that the killtime with a 4sk is just a little too fast for Reach. I would support it more of the rest of the game caught up to it, but regardless of the gravity or speed settings strafing will still have the acceleration and deceleration which make it easier to hit people. At the pro level where everybody is a great shot I don't think it would hold up particularly well.

Overall I don't think it's as big of an issue as it's made out to be. The bigger issues such as Sprint and Bloom are already being experimented with, so I think that 4sk vs 5sk should be decided by analysing professional gameplay (not nevessarily listening to the pros opinions).

I saw a few threads about it.

I'm undecided on the matter. I like the appeal of 4sk - the skill it takes. But to reference a friend of mine - just because something's the most skillful, doesn't make it the smartest, or best choice.

I also like my 5sk because it lets me get away more. So I'll just play whatever the minds at MLG put out.


Pros have been testing a bunch of settings and MLG will get feedback from the playlist update as well. Either way it should be good settings.

Should check out truehalomasters posts about 4sk, buried in his goldpro thread.


Think the community is more angled towards 5sk over 4sk though. The majority agree on no sprint though, which is good.

  • 11.30.2011 8:32 AM PDT

Increased movement speed and no AA's hands down. Sprint doesn't work side to side. At least increased movement speed sorta of makes strafing slightly more affective even though it's still Reach.

Watch a pros stream sometime and you'll see they don't get perfect 4shots. Nor would they get perfect 5 shots with a 5sk.

You can still out kill someone, even if they get first shot by strafing/gandhi'ing, like past Halos. I know you didn't bring this up but quite a bit do, its not "who sees who first", well to a degree it is/can be but so were past Halos and we had no problem with out killing people on those.

Some pros or community members will also complain that they die too fast on 4sk but when in reality they're trying to play ZB/NS Reach like Bloom and Sprint Reach, so they get punished for it. They aren't used to not being able to sprint away when they make a poor choice etc.


I won't mind either way it goes. 4sk is .2? seconds faster than H2/H3 4sk and the 5sk is the same as H2/H3.

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

Both would be better. Sprint would be nice to Flintstone your way out of a bad situation

No sprint would be good and zero bloom is the best.

I like the 4sk but I think the 5sk would work better. ZB makes 4sk a little to powerful imo

Sprint an excuse to make your player run slow and narrow the skill gap.


It's clear what the right choice is; faster base movement speed.

You do realize that default Reach movement is less than 2% slower than Halo 3 movement speed. 110% Reach movement is faster than any previous Halo.


I would rather have the choice of 110% AND 180% with Sprint rather than 120% all the time.
