They’re cool and you like to get them, but when you do your kill is taken away almost every time unless you’re alone. I wash they would either take out the yoink or make it so it’s only beat downs.

If they are optional, why do you care?

Giggles
But I’ve hardly ever had my assassinations yoinked, and if you don’t like it then just don’t hold down melee button, its as simple as that.

Just give me a toggle option. Let the players with A.D.D. use it along with all their flashy shiny “customizations”.
Seriously I think my generation and the one coming up need a vast Gaming Eugenics program. Just sit them down and make them play everything from Super Mario Bros. - Final Fantasy VII, from Baldur’s Gate - DooM, and Golden Eye - Halo 3. Then all these stupid kids wearing the “Classically Trained” shirts would be valid. Plus they wouldn’t care about “Looks” but rather Story and Gameplay. UGH…
BUT…
That’s just me. 
It’s random if you get one or not, or I can’t ever get it to do one or the other.
It’s Risk vs. Reward. The risk is potentially getting killed, or having your kill taken away from you via Yoinking. The reward is adding a point to your team, and at the same time, making it stylish. Your choice. Personally, I think assassinations should stay.
> It’s random if you get one or not, or I can’t ever get it to do one or the other.
It isn’t random, but hard to control. When you’re in the middle of an intense game, you hold down that melee button like there’s no tomorrow. You need to tap it, which is kind of hard to focus on in the middle of a match.
Anyway, they’re returning. It’s been confirmed in one of the bulletins. Hopefully they’re optional, but I wouldn’t be too upset if they aren’t.
In last weeks bulletin its stated that assassinations are going to be in halo 4 
yet I would like a toggle button
This is probably the most painful part of the Halo community, the ignorance.
To everybody asking for a toggle option? THERE IS ONE! LOOK IN THE OPTIONS FOR ONCE IN YOUR LIFE!
Not only that, but a simple melee from behind does the same job faster.
There isn’t one in the options. If there is, can you tell me where it is?
I made a post that didn’t get a lot of traffic about getting rid of Yoink! and making it so the person being assassinated can’t take any damage outside of the person assassinating them, similar to how executions work in gears of war.
The worst thing about Yoink! in my opinion is not only is it obnoxious that they stole a kill that was rightfully yours, but they get a medal and bonus xp for it.
Almost every time? Either you are making a vast overstatement or you just have really really awful luck…

In the options menu right now don’t see any assassinations toggle if your talking about clench protection that’s for those who move the right stick hard and zoom in accidentally.
I don’t mind them returning only if they can make it certain that if i tap i’m doing a back smack.

showstoppers fine with me I love um. Yoinks…well that’s just annoying. places like halo charts had commendations for those who had a lot of yoinks its kinda like endorsing being a D bag
if you don’t hold the melee, then you don’t do the assassination animation. Why are you trolling everyone else? I like them.

holding the button was something people had to get used to, therefore you will just have to learn to tap it. You CAN get rid of that habit and its not hard if you practice; just tap it and take your finger back to the trigger immediately.

Dunno who you are playing with, I haven’t had an Assassination Yoink!ed from me for quite some time now.
But hoping that Assassinations don’t come back just because yours all get Yoink!ed is terribly short sighted and selfish.
Just don’t go for the assassination if you don’t want your kill stolen.
