they should take away the ability to shoot an assassination victim. 99% of people do it and its so -Yoink!- annoying. its one of the most infuriating things in the whole game to me. people need to be more mature and not be such -Yoinks!- and taking away someones well earnt medal.
edit: if youre going to leave a comment about this topic please read everything before saying the same things other people have, like ‘both people being invulnerable’ or 'it wouldnt work if you cant get killed assassinating someone. this topic is suggesting JUST the VICTIM is invulnerable so people cant be selfish. anything to do with teammates saving an assassination victim is fair play and completely understandable. thank you
This argument has been around since assassinations were introduced. Yeah, it makes you a jerk if you do it but if they made assassination victims invulnerable it would mean that they would also be invulnerable to damage from their own teammates trying to kill you before you complete the assassination. I’d rather that their team take both of us out due to team fire than for the person being assassinated to live.

no, you misunderstand, im just saying the victim is invulnerable so that no one can steal the kill. the person actually assassinating the victim should still be able to be killed.

What would make you more angry? Having a teammate steal your assassination or having an enemy kill you with spray and pray mid-assassination and have your target live because they were made invulnerable during the assassination?

ive never had the person im sticking a knife in killed by their teammates. and if i get killed by their team fair enough. the point is, that one is a good move to make to save your team mate and i have nothing against that, the other is just a -Yoink- move and i hate it.
I think that the victim should not be able to be killed by your teammates, but you are still able to take damage from the enemy in a attempt to save their own teammate.
What they should do is if you complete a assassination, you get Grunt birthday cheers!
I would stop just to watch either my team mate or enemy spartan die, to hear YEEEEEAA

Good save. I saw what you meant originally. This clears it for others.

I don’t do that because I enjoy watching the assassination. Some people are just jerks.
Eh, Assassinations is for a nice stylish kill, and can be pretty satisfying if you sneak up on somebody. But you shouldn’t be immune while assassinating. It’s certainly annoying when someone takes your kill, but you can just turn it off in the settings.
I think you should get a medal that’s called “Hold Em Down” and it counts for your assassination commedations.
That way no one can complain.
But to be fair if you’re wasting time with your 3 second assasination, Someone is going to shoot them to save time. Power weapons, map control and spawn control is more important than your glitzy assassinations. The trade off for using an assassination is a risk reward, the risk is your teammates will take the kill or you will be killed. The reward is the full animation.
i would like that to… no dmg taken on the person that is getting killed. But i who am doing the A:S could get killed bye his mates, but then he would be instakilled to imo. And the kill would count towards you. Maybe not an A:S but atleast a beatdown och just one of those “player KILLED player”
