Should assassinations return for Halo 5. I Hope so
They probably will. But I don’t use them often because of the risk they persent. They can easily allow another player to achive a yoink or double kill. Or in the worst case allow that player to get a victory. When that could of been yours if the assassination had been complete.
Most likely.
I love them myself. Adds that extra bit or personal ownage to the kill. Of course there are people that argue that’s wasteful, but I don’t try to assassinate people in the middle of firefights.
Yes. Why shouldn’t they?
Yes please. And thanks!
Ya assassinations are cool!
I would be surprised if they weren’t in H5
Yes, however i would like to see more animations… like… a lot more.

Is that your argument? that’s the game!!!
Personally I think the melee system could certainly use a cosmetic upgrade. For example, meleeing a shielded enemy would result in the characteristic bash that we know and love, but meleeing unshielded opponents would result in a variety of swift first person actions (that occur in the same amount of time as a typical melee), like a rapid punch to the heart or a quick knife under the chin; all these animations a la Skyrim first person.
Assassinations of course would be carried over when holding melee while executing a backsmack, but should have a player-specific toggle option to avoid accidentally launching an unwanted and risky animation.
i would love to see this as well as sprint this helped halo 4
I want more assassination with more animations 
Yes! I want some seriously brutal ones 
Yes and they should be A LOT faster.
I don’t mind having assasinations in H5 but if I would chose to have them then I’d say “have them toggled”.
For competetive play assasinations were a great way of “teabagging” someone but it slowed things down and it allows the enemy team to get a quick kill on you hence you can’t move whilt performing it. There are alot of times where you assassinate by mistake in H4/Reach
Thought it’s a great feature for social play where time and skill and a win doesn’t matter as much as in competetive. Fun is the main goal there and assassinating someone in a cool/fun way to punish someone or to show of is great.
I’d suggest that it can be toggled on or off in game options and that it has a cool animation and has a reasonable time of execution.
I’m not saying that they are bad, I’m saying that it’s both good and bad.
assassinations are really cool they should be in halo 5
I’d like an option to toggle it. It doesn’t need to be removed but I prefer the simple backsmack.
I would like to see them return, but I don’t like how you have to play the full animation for it to be called an assassination. In Halo 4, a melee to the back would still instant-kill someone, but it didn’t count as an assassination. If they do return for Halo 5: Guardians, I would like to see 343 change it so a melee to the back still counts as an assassination, and it just becomes an added insult to do the full, brutal animation.
I hope they’re in the game
