I am fine with it against enemies but I think not colliding with allies is for the best overall

Gee only 86%? Seems pretty split.
343 just making stuff up to avoid listening to the community, as per usual

Enenemy collision should absolutely be present, itās breaking a lot of things with melee at the moment.
see:
/r/halo/comments/qyu8b1/i_will_continue_my_campaign_against_the_bad_melee/
But friendly collision should remain imo since it avoids people obstructing each other.
Player collision at least for enemies needs to be on, melee just feels off with out it.

Honestly, Iāve had so many issues with NO player collision already in just under a weak. Iām not even going to name them all its a rampant issue I run into every game.

Seems split, there should be in-game polls if 343 cared about player feedback. That way all active players could have the option to vote, without removing them from the game.

What the poll has shown us, is that the more time people have had to play the game, the more the consensus moves to reinstate player collision.
This is pretty decisive at this point, about a week ago the poll was 83-17 now after people have had a chance to play it is 87-13.

I chose the need of collision.
My second game or some I had a melee fight with an enemy and suddenly the guy was gone. I was thinking: āhow can this be, he was in a tight spot, how could I miss my melee?ā, it turned out he just phased through me.
After this in all my other games that night the close combat fights just felt awkward and unlike all the haloās I have been playing (all haloās except 5), in a bad way.
I never had a problem with collision on before, I never thought I wanted collision off and I still think collision should be on. Most problems with collision-on that are mentioned are just poor tactics from the player (they should do something about that themselves) or trolls (and they will always find a way to be a troll).
Also, I want to mention that I specifically came to the forums to out my displeasure about no-collision. Furthermore, I am curious how 343 came to the conclusion that the community is split on this point; I want to believe them, but there are just to many signs not being a split. So maybe they could point out their sources or something.

Their data they collected from random surveys is hardly an accurate representation either. Nearly every comment on posts related to gameplay changes the top comment is āBRING BACK COLLISION AND FRIENDLY FIREā
Yeah itās split, but itās like 90/10 or at worst 80/20 lol

I have examined and tried the matter betterā¦ it is much better when collisions are activeā¦ It seems counterintuitive but there is much less confusion when they are active, not to mention collisions with the enemy which are FUNDAMENTAL
āslows down the pace of the gameā spoken like a true nugamer who only enjoys constant run and gun and 0 thought gameplay
Can you go and play a twitch shooter like cod or something? Thereās enough of them floating around, stop trying to turn Halo into one aswell (although itās basically 90% there, they just need to lower the TTK slightly more than they already have)

BTB is an absolute mess
Audio is cluttered as -Yoink!-, beeps boops and about 3 people talking at once 2 of which canāt be muted

Control is a -Yoink!- gamemode
Join in progress is a joke, I donāt want to be put into a game where Iām getting bummed before I have a chance to even start (and on top of that thereās no rejoin feature after a crash? Why implement join in progress if you canāt rejoin a game you were previously in???)
But yeah this is such a good game amirite?
TBF I love the abilities and the shock rifle, skewer etc. Thatās about it. I wanted badly to enjoy this bit itās not halo, itās Halo lite.

I like your switched enthusiasm.
Actually, itās a very good way to collect data on a matter.
Issues with it is the extremely limited time to play (not entire weekends but specific sections of the day ) and the so called āhoneymoon phaseā. Everything is good and shiny, barely any issues.
Now when thereās more experience and people settle in, now we experience more, now we see what people figure out with the system they didnāt have time to either learn properly or find out about in the flights.

Player collision needs to be on, otherwise immensely frustrating situations can occur that are entirely out of the playerās control. Sure getting trapped by other players can happen, but in those situations you can see whatās happening and react accordingly. How can you possibly react to a teammate sprinting through you as you shoot a rocket or throw a grenade and consequently commit suicide? Or worse in ranked kill both you and your teammate. Furthermore, melee currently has some awful interactions. I have been inside an enemy spartanās hitbox and missed my melee attacks. How is that okay? It leads to some of the most aggravating and unfair interactions Iāve ever experienced while playing Halo. Is Infinite really better off with playerās learning to abuse the collision system win melee encounters against players who donāt know better?

Nearly 1k votes, and 87% want colision back. 343, be lads and turn it back on please.
I just want Infinite to be the best it can be, Iām passionate. I love this franchise more than anything.

without player collision, melee attack and near-body movement feels like crap

So I play controler, and its a huge disadvantage in melee skirmishes having this. they walk through and flick the wrist and they are turn around. If i hit them once they should still be in front of meā¦ not pass right through. Its BS
No collisions?!? Are you having a laugh 343???
The amount of times Iāve gone to hit someone and gone through them, and then got hit myself is ridiculous!
Iāve had people try to hit me from behind, miss, and then Iāve got the hit on them.
It needs sorting out, bring back full collisions, both teams, no exceptions ASAP.
Who decided that it would be a good idea to remove them???
Iām dumbstruckā¦

I concur, being able to melee enemies is so very crucial in Halo and itās so inconsistent and unwieldy in this game since players will phase through each other in melee encounters, absolutely ridiculous decision and has DEMONSTRABLY created more problems than it has solved. Although I use the word āsolvedā extremely generously since the reasons that were given for collisionās exclusion in the first were extremely transient in the first place.
