This is the most common control scheme despite many flaws (see below) that often become apparent to more experienced players. This is the control scheme that Bungie starts you with, but I would suggest that you quickly learn to either use the claw grip, bumper jumper, walkie talkie, or possibly even green thump, but I would suggest one of the earlier.

This is the most common control scheme despite many flaws (see below) that often become apparent to more experienced players. This is the control scheme that Bungie starts you with, but it is suggested that one quickly learns to either use the claw grip, bumper jumper, walkie talkie, or possibly even green thumb, all of which are more often used by experienced players.

This is the same as default except that the triggers are switched.

Please note that (like with default controls) it is not possible to aim while meleeing, jumping, and deploying equipment without use of the "claw grip"
Please note that if you compare new players using all button layouts this is the most accurate. Because unlike all of the other layouts offered in the game this is the only one that you are not required to use the same hand to shoot and aim with. Therefore, having more reaction time and accuracy.

This has the advantage of giving you some control over your aim while meleeing without compromising the aim of your grenades. However it is considered hard to learn and can be somewhat unreliable if not mastered.

This has the advantage if giving you some control over your aim while meleeing without compromising the aim of your grenades. However it is considered hard to learn and can be somewhat unreliable if not mastered.  
Also this is very similar to the default [[callofduty:|Call of Duty]] controls.

==== Bumper Jumper ====
<div class="Box 2" style="border:1px solid #000066; padding:4px 6px; color:#000; background-color: #f0f0ff">
This has been called by many to be the best possible controller configuration as you can aim while meleeing, jumping, zooming, and throwing grenades without having to use the uncomfortable claw grip usually only taking a few days to learn.


''"Jump and Melee are on the bumpers."''
Please note that it is not possible to aim while deploying equipment without use of the "claw grip," although this is not much of a deterrent for most.


A - Reload/Swap Left Weapon<br />
Bungie originally considered this as the default control scheme of ''Halo 3'', but thought it would be too radically different to players used to ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and ''Halo 2'' and so altered it into the actual default configuration.{{citation needed}} However, with its relative popularity among Bungie workers, it was kept as an alternate configuration.
B - Action/Reload Right Weapon<br />
X - Use Equipment<br />
Y - Swap Weapons<br />
Left Analog Click - Crouch<br />
Right Analog Click - Zoom View<br />
Right Trigger - Use Right Weapon<br />
Left Trigger - Use Left Weapon<br />

Left Bumper - Jump<br />
A + B + LB + <B>↓</B> D-Pad + Left Analog Click - Lower Weapon (Only works in Local or System Link)<br />
A + B + LB + <B>↑</B> D-Pad + Left Analog Click - Display Co-ordinates (Only works in Local or System Link)


This has been called by many to be the best possible controller configuration as you can aim while meleeing, jumping, zooming, and throwing grenades without having to use the uncomfortable claw grip usually only taking a few days to learn.
Using the [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshee]] becomes much easier with this control scheme, seeing as how you can use your cannon and aim, as well as perform tricks and determine your trajectory at the same time.

This has very similar advantages to Bumper Jumper except you can aim while deploying equipment but not while jumping, and it is much more convenient to communicate with your team as you can continue walking and aiming while you switch into your team chat.


Using the [[Banshee]] becomes much easier with this control scheme, seeing as how you can use your cannon and aim, as well as perform tricks and determine your trajectory at the same time.

This has very similar advantages to Bumper Jumper except you can aim while deploying equipment but not while jumping, and it is much more convenient to communicate with your team as you can continue walking and aiming while you switch into your team chat.

==References==
==Trivia==
<references/>
*The ''Duke'' button layout from ''Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary'', which mimics that of ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', is named in reference to the first version of the [[Wikipedia:Xbox Controller|Xbox Controller]]. The unwieldy "Duke" was soon replaced with the more ergonomic "Controller S".
*The ''Fishstick'' control scheme from ''Halo 5'' is nearly identical to the default controller layout for the ''[[callofduty:|Call of Duty]]'' series. The layout's name is a play on the series' ''CoD'' abbreviation: cod is a species of fish.
