Assassinations

Okay, so I recently watched a video that talked about the possibility of there not being assassinations in Halo Infinite. It used the fact that there were no assassinations shown in the gameplay reveal trailer. Is this possible? Or have I just not looked into it enough? Personally, I believe this would crush the game and its player base. Thoughts on this, hypothetical or actual.

If we’re being honest assassinations not returning won’t affect player retention in any significant capacity, but they will be sorely missed. As of now there’s no confirmation as to whether, or not they will be returning. I’m assuming they weren’t ready be shown and that we’ll see them later on although that’s just speculation on my part.

This topic has been touched on many times. Not trying to sound rude btw. Nobody knows.

I would be extremely sad if assassinations don’t come back tbh. I’ve loved and always used them when I get the chance. though this comes from a mostly social player so yeah.

Guess we’ll find out when the beta drops.

Honestly, there might not be any assassination animations. In the trailer you see a spartan meleeing another spartan from behind and no animation occurring. I thinking if they were in the game they would have highlighted them. I, personally, never liked them anyway so I glad to not see them lol.

I love assassinations, but my friends and I have always made a game out of getting YOINK medals and we find it hilarious and infuriating.
I could see 343 ditching assassinations just to cut down on the YOINK/kill steals.

if theres no assassinations on infinite i will cry

Assassinations in Halo Infinite could help the gameplay rhythm b being able to kill the person assassinating to save your teammate. It could also add to the competitive side of Halo Infinite, and it would add some cool gaming clips. like in the past Halo titles. The Halo Flight Program is coming up, so people can see if there are assassinations and if there aren’t, the Insiders could recommend assassinations to the game. I hope there are assassinations in Halo Infinite, but there is still the Flight Program coming up.

That’s what I’m hoping to find out. Also very good points, clutch moments saving a teammate from being assassinated are always fun, plus adding epic moments when you are landing those assassinations adds another level to the game.

Exactly we need assassinations

So long as everything is fast paced I won’t be super bummed, but there is nothing I love more than getting into an assassination fight with someone. I have had many times where me and another guy would stop shooting to try and assassinate one another. It made for great fun and new friends. It’s also a flex like the T-bag

I don’t mind either to be honest. The assassinations are cool, but I rarely use them anyway to not get stuck. If they do return, they should be customizable. I would feel much more inclined to use an an assassination, if I could choose how the animation plays out.

Thanks for all the great feedback, it’s really good seeing multiple POV’s

I hope assassinations return, they were always a nice surprise in Reach. About to melee a grunt from behind as he runs for his life? SUPRISE! YOU JUST SNAPPED HIS NECK!

Take this with a HUGE grain of salt bc it’s just a youtube comment, but look at honeyduh’s comment under KevinKool’s video

I disagree. If you waste time with an animation it leaves you vulnerable and eliminates any possibility of a multi-kill.

I love assassinations.
I hope they are in it.
