I can haz Recon (but would like Retro).

In Response To: Whadya think about the controls? (Addy) I hope there's more options come the final game, but for the beta (it's super awesome), I'm likely going to stick to Recon for the simple fact that, unlike the default controls, it places melee attacks on B, it's traditional button. It also places the action/reload function on RB like in Halo 3, which has become more familiar than the old Halo 1/2 style control scheme, so it'll be easier to transition without that damn muscle memory screwing me. However, since dual wielding is gone, I would ultimately like to use a control scheme more like Halo 1's (call it "Retro"), where action/reload is on X, melee is on B, and the bumpers handle grenade toggling and AA activation. Reach's standard control scheme does place action/reload on X, but I don't like how it puts melee on RB and grenade toggle on B. Hopefully Bungie will add a Retro layout in the final game.
