MCC boosted sales because people wanted to play Halo games online that didn't have all of the bull**** that Reach introduced. If I wanted to play Destiny, I would play Destiny. People want to play Halo. What made Halo fun was that all you had was the trinity. Shoot, grenade, melee. You were limited in options and skill shined more on players who perfected these things.

which slows down gameplay considerably. It would be fine if all of these things were in the game and you were able to turn them off, however the maps are designed to be played with such things making it impossible to play at a faster pace without them at this point. Look at Reach and H4, all of the maps are vertically based in some way because the jetpack was in the game. H5's maps look to be pretty good and the sprinting mechanic does seem more balanced, but all of those abilties are not needed. It would be fine if just sprint was there, but it isn't and thats the main problem as to why Halo games have been failing. You say we can't have the same game over and over, but yet H1,2, and 3 were all essentially the same engine with slight tweaks and improvements. Reach added so much to the game that it broke how it played.

because ground pound and shoulder charge totally make the game faster. The game was fast paced before sprinting was introduced. AA were clearly a failure. Dual wielding and hijacking have nothing to do with any form of fast paced gameplay (talking competitive here), and assassinations have always been in the game.

Sprinting along with other "spartan abilities" don't belong in Halo. Ever wondered why the sales and popularity declined after those flawed mechanics were introduced? It upsets the flow of the unique gameplay that Halo had, it wasn't like every other game on the market. Why do you think tons of people were excited to actually be able to play H2 online again? because it doesn't have all of those faulty mechanics that don't fit the gameplay. Whether you like it or not, Sprinting along with other abilties, do not fit in Halo. (and to the people saying that spartans should be able to run, they were always running.)

Why is there still no option for this? Why limit the options of players? Walkie Talkie was probably the most used setting in H3 (maybe only second to Bumper Jumper), so why has it never made a return? hell, why not let us map our own controls?
