Spartan charge from behind vs assassination

Just like there’s an option to turn off assassinations, I wish there was an option to opt for assassinations over a Spartan charge when you’re coming up behind someone. Even though it takes more time and leaves you vulnerable, at least it’s a guaranteed kill if you can pull it off. Plus it’s way more fun. But I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wanted to assassinate someone only to end up shoulder charging them. Thoughts? I know the game has bigger issues but if this could be addressed at some point it would be a nice option to have.

I don’t have this issue, if you’re running full spartan speed into somebody an assassination wouldn’t really be ideal. Maybe it’s an issue, but I haven’t encountered it in my personal experience.

Slide before.

Idk how I never thought of that. That is a great idea. I’m so used to slide not being in Halo. Thanks!

Spartan charge all day.

I don’t do assassinations.

If you miss with that Spartan charge, I will find you, kill you, and TBag you like crazy.

The Spartan charge is really loud, and assuming you’re flanking a group of people, unless they all have their headset volumes to max, they aren’t going to hear you assassinate.
I admit I never thought about sliding before though.

I wish I could just regularly assassinate people from the air instead of ground pounding. That jockey animation looks dope but I never get it.

Both are really awesome but assassination edges it for me. Prob would have completed commendation for assassination by now if not for spartan charge (and assassination kill thieves)

What I do is jerk the left stick to the side momentarily before walking up and assassinating. Helps to cancel sprint. Sliding might be a good idea, too.

It’s on purpose to remove that stupid Sprinting assassination that was probably 99% of all assassinations in Halo 4. Assassinations in this game require you to genuinely surprise someone in a stealthy way most of the time rather than just sprint up behind them and hold the melee button.

I used the slide too, but be careful. It is a lot harder to control and easier to miss. I have the same issue though. I’d be done with the commendation already if you could assassinate instead of charge.

We don’t need an option all we need to do is stop running behind them when we get close, boost to make up the difference and assassinate them.

It would be cool the see an SC assassination, like you knock them over and do stab them, or idk. It’s pretty potent already though.

I just turned off assassinations cause it -Yoinks!- me up most of the time. So I just spartan charge and get the kill fast.

Dude they turn around by then almost everytime. Boost is so loud in this game you can hear them from a mile away.
