{{Article Quote|For lefties.}}

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.

Also this is very similar to the default [[w:c:cod|Call of Duty]] controls.

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.{{fact}} However, with its relative popularity among Bungie workers, it was kept as an alternate configuration.

{{Main|Alert carry}}

Alert carry is a feature introduced in ''Halo 2'' for machinima purposes. The feature can be accessed by pressing "down" on the D-pad (''Halo 2'' only) or using a combination of buttons (''Halo 3'' and subsequent games).

*The ''Fishstick'' control scheme from ''Halo 4'' is nearly identical to the default controller layout for the ''[[w:c:callofduty|Call of Duty]]'' series. The layout's name is a play on the series' ''CoD'' abbreviation: cod is a species of fish.
