I love both Halo and Call of Duty, but lately they've been trespassing on each other's turf. Methinks this is 343's eff-you to Activision for Advanced Warfare.

No, it's actually just 343's last FU to original Halo fans.

EDIT: I say that because I expected them learn more from Halo 4 and stop changing Halo so much. However, they did roll back a few things. It just seems crazy that they still added more COD stuff at the same time.

+Sprint. I don't think it should be in Halo, but this video literally just taught me something the other one didn't. Your shields don't come back. A good enough compromise.
+All Spartans start the same in a match again
+Map control is back, I think
-Mounting ledges. It might sound silly, but jumping was a very nuanced thing in Halo. It took skill and practice. You could fuck up under pressure and kill yourself.
-Bloom. Looks like they still have reticle bloom, which the first three didn't have. Fuckin... still lame.
-Ground Pound. Melee was also very nuanced. This thing could be ridiculous if it's too powerful.
-The announcer sounds fucking retarded. 

=="Smart Scope" AKA "Still the same as zooming, but with an extra animation and more shit on your screen." Seems unnecessary. But I don't really blame them.
==Sliding.. Probably not going to change anything.
==Boost dodge thing. I wish it wasn't there, but if it replaced all other Spartan Abilities, then I'm okay with it.

Also, they'll get +++ it they add back in dynamic 1-50 ranks.
