Looking at all the halo 5 footage from gamescon, I couldn’t help but be disappointed that some basic medals, such as “kill” and “assist”, were taken out. While I understand that there were too many medals in the beta, I think these two are actually quite helpful, and are not fully replicated by a killfeed. Also, it seems like players picking up halo for the first time will be confused. What do you guys think? Is this the way the game is going to launch?
The Assist one would be ok, it’s better than having your kill stolen without trace.
The kill medal was unnecessary, but I did like the assist medal because it let me know that I was supporting my team. As long as the assists still show on the scoreboard, it doesn’t really matter if I get a medal for it.
I would like them back in since it would be easier for me to tell if I was able to get the kill or not. Some people say that it degrades the value of medals but I don’t really care.
I’m glad the kill medals gone. I don’t really care about the assist one, so either way I’m fine
I think there still there. In the gamescom invitational some people’s HUDS had them while some didn’t
I think
I think the Kill Medal is dumb, but I think an Assist Medal should be there. It’s been around since Halo 2 or 3.
Same as everyone here. Kill medal - no. Assist medal - yes.

The assist medal was not in Halo 2 or 3 multiplayer. It’s first appearance in multiplayer was in Reach.
The KIll medal was redundant
We don’t need kill medals for each specific weapon “hydra kill” “rocket kill” “railgun kill” “kill kill”
Remember in H3 when medals were special and actually meant something?
That being said, I liked the assist medal and would like to see it return
I would only like to see the assist metal to return.
Kill medal was stupid. Medals should be awarded for doing something out of the ordinary, not a normal kill.
Assist medal is unnecessary as well. You can only get assists in a team based game, and during a team based game as long as your team gets the point it doesn’t matter if you get your kill ‘stolen’. And who ever thinks that they are entitled to some reward for assisting on a kill on top of getting the damn point for your team should just not play a team game type.
Assist can be given some reason for its prescence since itconfirms whether or not an enemy is dead if gou can’t see them, but the kill medal is not needed.

Heh.
> “kill kill”
Heheheh.
I wouldn’t mind the assist medal, but I don’t think there’s ever been a point in the last 10 years where I didn’t know whether or not I killed someone. The kill medal isn’t needed at all.
