Subject: I just now realized how frustrating Sprint is

Herroh. U have reached teh BOOGIE LAND

Yup. People sprinting away after they are a one shot, people sprinting away when they are losing a DMR dual, people sprinting away in hopes of having their team help them, people sprinting to double beat down, people sprinting just to sprint.

It gets so irritating, man. I thought Sprint wasn't so bad, until I played Arena today. The way they abuse it is so damn bad.

It's great to know that in Halo 4, you'll be slowed down when you get shot.

I <3 Halo:Reach - amazingly fun and best campaign + amazing Soundtrack
I <3 Halo 3:ODST - best soundtrack + Firefight + Coastal Highway and Mombassa Streets, amazingly unique campaign.
I <3 Halo 3 - best multiplayer levels + Forge + best Custom Games + soundtrack
I <3 Halo 2 - amazing huge fun campaign + soundtrack + Fun multiplayer
I <3 Halo: CE - started it all

And in Halo 4, you'll have a lightshield, and an evade type ability to replace the running away with sprint.

He's told me he does, you're acting like he's afraid to own up to it. Which he isn't.

Took your time..

"What's up baby, how are you doin'? I hate the sound of my own voice and I been invited here to distract my self from the fact that I wrote all of this garbage."

Yeah, it's pretty irritating. I get next to no service inside buildings. You should switch to Verizon, they have much better coverage. It's more expensive, but worth it.

Sprint is a cell phone service provider. So is Verizon.

Its part of the game man, just use it effectivly like they do. Before sprint it was jetpack.

Or they could just not include bull-blam!- in the game. That's definitely the best option.

But of course they do, anyway.

Its in the game, and its not so bad, jetpack was worse. just learn to use it effectively. Your dishing out and reciving BS when for example people run away fron you when their absolute. so its not that bad, everything evens out

Just shoot him in the ass while he tries to get away
The above statement
Get your team to back you up too.
This is stupid, and I can agree with this
Sprinting to sprint? Don't you mean sprinting to get to the action faster?

No, it doesn't even out. It's still bull-blam!-. You can cover it with whipped cream, but in the end it's still bull-blam!-, just now with whipped cream.

It doesn't matter how effectively you use it against other people who use it, it's a terrible addition to a game that has longer KT's and a complex micro tactics system by comparison to other games in the genre.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Erm... just about every ability is frustratingly detrimental to gameplay. The only one that I doesn't ruin the game is hologram, since it is incredibly easy to notice one.

  • 07.04.2012 9:49 PM PDT

Yeah sprint's a joke I wish they just made it a pickup like overshield and camo, nobody ever complained about them so i don't see why they replaced them with -blam!- AAs.

I like the old days where escaping one shot was turning around and looking down. sprint actually lowers the pace of the game believe it or not, since people just run away from everything with ease.

"Before you insult someone, try walking a mile in their shoes. This way, when you insult them, you are a mile away and have their shoes."

I'm on the line about it.

I hate how it lets people run away from combat and how it allows people to avoid a combat scenario that they would lose.

I enjoy how it lets me cross parts of a map to get to the combat zone.

Solution: Make base movement faster to compensate for sprint being removed. That way everyone moves at the same clip.

Yeah, I hate it when people move slightly faster for short periods of time. It's like sprint benefits the player who uses it, and in some situations, more than other armor abilities would. It's as if Halo Reach is a complex and dynamic game based on tactics and strategy, not only the ability to point and click.

ChemicalEnvy, each time I tell you to play MLG you always say 'nooo i onlee liek teh defolt settings!' Now you are paying the price.
