Quote
—Increase base speed (faster base movement)
—Increase strafe acceleration (faster, more responsive strafing)
—Reduce top sprint speed (narrow the delta between base movement and sprint)
—Modify Ground Pound controls to prevent conflicts w/ crouch jumping
—General tuning & bug fixes for all Spartan Abilities (Thrusters, Clamber, Ground Pound, etc.)

Silly Admirals. 3fail3 don't listen to feedback, and want to destroy Halo.

This is obviously false.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

You want the Halo 5 Development Team to stop making Halo 5 and fix the MCC when there's already a team dedicated to the MCC at 343i?

11% number is a flat out lie.

343 just don't get it. They can't swallow their pride and make a better game.

What a joke.

Yes, because the "dedicated team" working on MCC is fucking incompetent.

"The results from the HCFP surveys showed that nearly 11% of HCFP participants felt that Halo should not have sprint."

Statistics don't lie PSU. Suck it up and accept it.

LOL @ 11% don't want sprint in Halo...sorry, I don't believe that shit. 11% is not a big enough number for them to add toggles, that number is much higher.

Stop believing everything you read. My company misconstrues stats all the time. Its actually a big part of my job in marketing.

They have consistently and often put out updates in an attempt to fix the game. In Frebuary a new update is coming out that completely overhauls the system to fix it.

I'm aware of their updates.

They also said the December update would overhaul everything too. We all know how that worked.

You're not disproving what I said here.

You obviously don't understand how development works. And it's MS who decide when Halo 5 should be released, not 343, so they can't drop H5's development to work on the MCC.

You moron.

You got a source for them saying they'd overhaul the system?

Just tell him to try and play some BTB in matchmaking.
That's always a fun waste of time.

Like I said, 11% isn't enough to add a toggle option. We are being lied to.

11% number is a flat out lie.

343 just don't get it. They can't swallow their pride and make a better game.

What a joke.
Oh yes, because everyone must have the same opinion as you so that means 343i are lying when they say that a majority don't.

You honestly think that only 11% of people dislike sprint?

Then you aren't paying attention. Sorry.

Why did MCC sell so well?

Was it because people wanted to play Halo 4? Or because they wanted to play CE-3?

Because of H2A. The whole marketing behind it was based around H2A.

Your tears of denial sustain us.

First off, this statistic has nothing to do with marketing.

2nd do you have a credible source on 11% not being enough to add a toggle option? Do you want them to not add a toggle option?

Shit PSU, just abandon the damn franchise. They're not going to make the game you want.

It sold that well for 6 maps?

You're an idiot. It sold well for CLASSIC HALO.

Even in its broken state, I would bet my life it still gets more players than Halo 4 did 3 months into h4.

Quick Question guys: Why do you think 343 removed playlist population counters?

Not sure if I should trust 3fail3, but let's see if they have the balls to make a halo game, I doubt they will.
