How your Halo 5: Guardians beta feedback is changing sprint, weapons, and more

In the closing days of 2014, Microsoft and developer 343 Industries launched a beta test for the upcoming sci-fi shooter Halo 5: Guardians. Now, the studio is sharing many of the changes that it has in store after getting player feedback.

Halo 5: Guardians represents a significant shift for the long-running franchise. 343 is introducing new abilities that change the beloved Halo formula, and after letting many of you have a go at an early version, the company is planning on adjusting and fixing a number of Guardian’s aspects. Halo is one of Microsoft’s marquee Xbox games, and the series has sold more than 60 million copies since Halo: Combat Evolved debuted on the original Xbox in 2001. It’s clear that it wants 343 to get Halo 5 right.
