Forever Pyro

I'm pretty sure spartans can manually sprint or evade.
Having to pick something up to sprint is stupid to me. Sprint or evade shouldn't be a perk, ESPECIALLY when you're in a situation where you're about to get blown up or killed and you don't have neither ability and armor lock isn't in the picture. I miss the old days where you had more power-ups instead of those cursed AA's.

You had a few more options yes, but were only able to pick up one still.

Plus, if you're about to be blown up or killed, using Sprint or Evade won't help in any situation.

For a faster way to move besides vehicles, armor abilities are pointless.

For some people, yes. But no other people waste their retard roll which annoys me and now they're respawning while choosing a better loadout.

It's still a terrible mechanic for Halo though.

It would have been fine if Bungie didn't rework the shield system from Halo 3. That and bloom contradict sprint.

TBH I would have wanted to see Sprint in ODST. It would have made sense and worked well IMO

It's still bad in ZB TU settings. Respawners aren't punished as much because they can get back into the fight easier and people can escape that much more easily. It makes the game overly chaotic.

I totally overlooked respawners. You make a good point. That's something I have to account for when building Invasion--getting back into the fight too easily.

If I could change a few things in Reach, it would be....

*Get rid of yoinking and medal ( yoinking is retarded )
*Force Bungie to work again and get rid of 343's existence
* A few other things

Life is a journey, if you spend all of it with your nose in your map, you may miss some of the best parts.
