Doesn't CS:GO have no sprint and it has one of the largest competitive FPS communities. It shows sprint isn't necessary in FPS games.

I thought CS was dead

No. It's very very active.

To me and many other people, the only way to have fun is to be competitive.

PSU · February 06, 2015, 11:41:46 AM

Don't know what arma is. But battlefield isn't conpetitive at all and its next to impossible to communicate with your teammates in an effective manner

And to many people that isn't fun.

The competitive community don't decide what is and isn't fun.

Yeah, if you play with randoms.

I fail to see how another playlist would impact. 8v8 can still be in as small team battle or down thing and then have 32v32 as big team battle.

PSU · February 06, 2015, 11:56:50 AM

Who's making all these maps for 4v4, 8v8 and 32v32? It's not practical.

Lemon, yeah I play with randoms because how the fuck can you get 31 friends all online at the same time and in the same game.

I'm not speaking for anyone other than myself when I say I can't have fun without being competitive.

There's websites specifically for that exact purpose. Halo isn't the only game to have such websites you know.

I disagree. 8v8 is the perfect big team size in halo.

Lel, no it's not. If the same still has the same outdated player count it's not going to survive when Battlefront and Planet side 2 comes out and the Battlefield games which are now 32V32 on consoles. You're most likely going to have a lot of people playing Halo 5 for the story and then going over to those games for the MP. Also like I said the player count is way too low for vehicle use. Almost half your team can be in the warthog. The player count would affect what vehicles can be in the game. It also hinders the vehicles due to the map size.

Quote

Anything bigger just makes the maps enormous

Which would result in more vehicles being added that results in more fun and it would make the vehicles handle better. Like I said the warthog covers too much ground for the map size. The air vehicles are too closed in and the scorpion's range is outside the boundaries.

Quote

and makes strategy and communication impossible.

Lel. In EVE a whole bunch of players worked together to take out a ship. Just because there's more than 8 players on a team doesn't mean nobody is going to know what's going on. There is this thing called player chat. In Bf1942 there's text chat which can be used to talk to each other on your team.

Quote

Wouldn't be competitive at all.

So? If you want competitive then play your 4v4 gametypes or your MLG. The whole game shouldn't be catered to a small group of the player base.

Actually making decent changes?

I'm surprised, this is good news.

The only thing they have to do is make maps that aren't as heavy for vehicle use and player count. It wouldn't be all that much of a hindrance. Hell they can take a 32v32 map and take a section of it for the 8v8 playlist.

Those item boxes in Mario Kart are way too random. Each area that has the boxes should have the same item so the game is more competitive.

Well why not just make a forge world-style map, where you use the entire map in the 32 player teams, but it's cut down to a small section like FW Canyon for the small team stuff.

I mean, I want my Vulture, Locust and motherfucking Cobra in a first person halo game, but it won't happen until we get bigger maps.

We've got Sparrowhawks, Pelicans, Seraphs, Jets, Phantoms, Longswords, and Scarabs on Halo PC. Honestly, even then they don't work half bad. Not something Devs would accept as retail quality, but still playable, semi-fairly balanced, and fun.

It's more than doable.
