need an option to turn off flyingspartandropthingy

We need an option to do it. it so annyoing when having a jumping melee fight. I mean we have the option to turn of assassinations so why cant we turn that off. its just so annoying. and im one of those people who holds down the melee button every time and its a real tough habit to break.

You mean Ground Pound?

yes

Why are you holding the melee button in mid air anyway?

If you’re just trying to melee an enemy in the air then simply press and release the melee button, don’t press and hold the melee button. The only reason you’ll activate Ground Pound if you’re trying to melee an enemy would be if you’re in the air but you’re out of melee range. If you’re looking to turn it off for Custom Games, it’s in the game settings.

That’s not flying. That’s falling, with style.

There’s still a delay regardless of whether you press and hold or simply press and release. A small, but noticeable delay that will lose you melee battles if your control scheme uses the same button for both melee and ground pound.

To Infinity (you like that?) and beyond!!

Not really relevant, but when I read “FLYINGSPARTAN,” I immediately thought about of those acrobatic Spartans that would preform cartwheels when killed from a mongoose, funny…

I feel you man, I used to be one of those hold-melee-button players too. My habit mainly came from ninja-ing in Reach and 4. And when I started playing, oh boy, it was a nightmare for me. But then I started to ninja in H5, and once you get the hang of doing that, I guarantee you that habit will break(mainly because doing an assassination or beatdown ninja style requires very short button presses to perform). At least thats how I broke my habit.

Dang it Brock you beat me to it!

Thing is some times I go into assassinations when I just tap it and other times if I hold it in it just back smacks.

zing!

I’m hoping H6 has Spartan Charge and Ground Pound on different buttons than melee. But I highly doubt it since Halo 5 has pretty much every button being used.

343i is going to add an update where you can ONLY use Ground Pound, because you didn’t bother to find the correct terminology for said ability.
