Could we please remove the garbage feature where melee only works half the time?

I don’t see why every melee hit is a coinflip. If I press the melee button, and the crosshair is red, and the enemy is covering half my -Yoink!- screen, then I should hit him. This is a feature that has existed in the past 20 years of Halo, unchanged until now. I don’t know who told you to change it, but seriously, change it back. It honestly seems like extra development time and more resource usage to implement a math.random to every melee hit.

I have no idea why 343 decided to not make melee hits always hit, it just seems like a dumb decision. Is it to sell 100% melee gloves in the store eventually? I wouldn’t be surprised at this point.

  • Sincerely, every Halo player that expects a button press to do the appropriate press button action.

I just don’t understand how it worked for 20 years, but now they just decided to break it? I guess it would make sense they probably didn’t QA anything that wasn’t directly tied to the money shop.

I agree, I’ll be 2 inches from someone and it won’t connect at all. What was wrong with the way it worked in 3, Reach, 4, and 5?

Yep. You can shoot someone, run up to them and punch them, and then it didint connect so I try again and by then they’ve emptied a clip into me. I hardly bother with melee anymore.

So much for the golden triangle.
