Which Spartan abilities did you like best and which need to be retuned?
I'm a pretty old school player so I prefer the simplistic arena-style of Halo's past most of all. That being said, I'm still excited for H5 (MCC launch nearly killed that for me).
Here are my personal opinions:
Sprint is fine.
Thruster pack I actually like well enough.
I hate the ground slam. Looks cool, has no place in this game IMO.
I don't like the ledge grabbing either. I think it looks good from a viewer stand point and plays well enough but it makes terrain hoping just too easy. Not a fan.
I can't recall but was the thruster done in 3rd person or 1st person? The H4 3rd person is less immersive and I think 1st person pov would feel much much better.
Thoughts?
EDIT: I'm on the fence about ADS. I stubbornly want it gone but it didn't play too poorly. May be okay but I could live without it, for sure.
EDIT: Sliding and charging I personally care nothing for, they are gimmicky and will mostly be a "huh, that's cool" to the casual audience the first (only) times they use it and just another useless add-on to the competitive audience. Feels like a waste of programming to me!

Wait, are there going to be swappable armor abilities in H5?
