Within the new Halo Infinite Gameplay i have not seen a single assassination which grabs my curiosity of if there is or isnt assassinations within halo infinite.
I Hope there is as performing any assassination to me is very fun However going back to the gameplay of the halo infinite multiplayer i also didnt see any vaulting which also grabs my curiosity. Will we be able to assassinate within halo infinite and also have the ability to vault over walls?
We probably will be able to, I dont see a reason why they would take it out. It just isnt anything new or really important so theres not much of a reason to include it in trailers

If you watch the reveal trailer at around 0:30 just after the no-scope grapple, the person playing proceeds to beat down another player from behind to steal his weapon, seems like there isn’t going to be assassinations, or if there is assassinations they’re either not in this version or there might be some way to opt out (or unequip) assassinations.
We didn’t see any evidence of smart-link making a return in the campaign demo last year either, but we did see that Clamber came back. So I’d say it’s still there.
As for assassinations, I’d love to see them come back, but they’ll probably be added to the game later down the line if 343 didn’t show it today or yesterday. Assassinations are clearly cinematic which is an aspect they wanted to touch on in the trailer, but I guess they also wanted to emphasize the “sandbox-focus” of the game (even though all Halo games are sandbox focused…), and assassinations aren’t really anything new or spectacular sandbox-wise.
Buuuut, they could change that by making regular back-smacks noisy, and assassinations clean and quiet.

You can quickly beat down a player from behind or make an assassination. Not see them at the demo don’t mean it won’t be there.
I hope they’re in the game, personally. One of the things I did enjoy from Halo 5 was the different types of assassinations there were.
Ive had another watch through the new gameplay of halo Infinite and i can clarify that vaulting is a thing but assassinations are still questionable

From the positioning of the hit I feel it’s safe to assume it’s within that assassination range, either way this part neither confirms nor denies anything, just felt it was worth pointing out. I scoured through both multiplayer videos and there were no beat downs from behind or assassinations excluding the beat down previously mentioned. I personally doubt that they’re gonna remove assassinations all together but it’d be interesting if they went back to classic assassinations (i.e. medal after a beat down from behind)
There’s probably assassinations, it’s just that a beat down is quicker and therefore the most tactical choice. Seasoned Halo players probably make good decisions about when to do which
They probably didn’t show it but I think assassinations will be in Infinite.

Maybe its just me but assassinations slow stuff down and are probably the worst way to die. If you’re gonna kill someone might as well do it quickly IMO.
I think honestly the idea of assassinations is fine against AI but against players its intolerable and insulting. I already get enough insults from the 9 year olds pretending they know what -Yoink!- is.
Clamber was shown in the demo last year and this years trailers. I would assume assassinations are still there but I’m also surprised they didn’t show any.

Yes assassinations slow the fight, but every one have the choice to make it or no. Sometimes I don’t want to make an assassination and it happens anyway, it’s very sensitive
