But...But...You Were Dead

So I was playing Regicide the other day and ran into this issue with an assassination. Assassination? Has anyone else ran into this issue as well?

yes actually the same thing happened to me today. i was still behind him however and just hit him again to kill him. i didn’t think anything of it just thought i was tripping.

WWRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

I’ve seen that happen quite a few times Hilarious.

Not related to the topic, sure, but the first thing I thought of looking at the BS was the Steamroller.

Good enough?

Ive been on the surprise you failed end of that a few times

Funny when they are about to snap your neck and you somehow turn around and punch them in the face
x)

Slack ninja move, I would’ve seen that 100 kms away. It was so nooby that 343 decided not to even give you that.

This has happen to me once, I was being assassinated but then it just stopped.

Most annoying part about it! Once I even got my own show stopper just by turning around a bit to punch the guy who happened to be one shot. Then on a match on Haven I started the assassination and it just cancelled it(but as one of you said above I beat him down(maybe pummeled) and he was one shot after it cancelled it). This makes me feel dissapointed that the assassinations would somtimes bug out like this. This needs to be part of a patch if they decide to make one.

I have a major issue with assassinations, i keep gettin frickin assassinated :((

I’m pretty confident in saying that when the animation clips too much into something for the games comfort it cancels. At least to me that’s what seems like the reason.
I’ve watched my failed assassinations clip quite a few times and then proceed to cancelling.

I guess 343i didn’t like the insta assassinate in Reach if there was clipping so they chose this over that.
