So this confirms that melee sometimes doesn’t do any damage! I always thought I was just lagging…
It’s happened many times in both scenarios. Kinda stupid but don’t think they will do anything about it lel.
Same thing happens with ground pounds, too. Hopefully after all the free DLC we’ll get a bug fix patch

*fixed
And yeah, no damage melee can be pretty painful to watch, especially if you’ve got a weapon liken the sword and know you’ve hit someone, just for them to take no damage and still kill you in the end.

Huh… never seen a ground pound not damage anything, all I’ve seen is instant painful death.
melee works fine for me

Same here, I haven’t ran into this issue yet
That looks strange to me… maybe it didn’t register? I don’t know, lol probably just lag.
Most likely just lag because I never ran into a problem. I once saw a guy trying and failing to jump off a ledge in Firefight. Every time he jumped off he would appear back on the ledge. He was the only thing lagging during that game though.
Oi, many a time have I killed and been killed from a wet squib of a punch.
Ghost melee! 3spooky5me
These happen to me more than I’d like, I would really like to see it addressed.
I’m really surprised to see so many haven’t ran into this. I’ve had this happen to me many, many times. It’s hilarious when you’re one shot and they melee you just for you to take no damage and then kill them. It’s pretty rage inducing when it happens to you, though

Maybe it is lag - you haven’t seen their point of view. Perhaps they hit too early on their screen.

It’s happened to me, it’s not lag. You lunge at them and hit them enough to boost their body backwards, but they take no damage. I’ve been on both sides of it more than once.

You say that with confidence, are you a network engineer then? Or are you like the rest of us and just guessing?
I think you’re just guessing, so I’ll ignore your opinion for now, unless you can provide evidence that it was not lag. Because I’ve looked into things many times before both in recorded clips and theatre, and there’s always a difference between what you see and what the server sees.
I take it you’re aware that you always have lag on a multiplayer game?
This has become a serious issue recently and happens on a regular basis to me and a number of others. It is far too common to be run of the mill lag. Its been happening so much that 343 put a joke loading screen referring to Halloween and ghost melee’s.

What it looks like in this clip is your attacker barely missed his melee attempt. I think it is possible he has hit the melee button a little too early.

Haha, I swear, every single time I reply to you, it’s like you always have an attitude. The definition of a glitch is a sudden malfunction/irregularity, so yeah, its a glitch.
The times I’ve experienced it, the game was never laggy. Everything was running smooth.
Ghost melees and 343 was made aware of that issue and hopefully fixing it.

You seem to think that your assumptions are the same as facts, but I hate to be the one to inform you that they’re not.
You have no proof that it’s a glitch, and since you are the one making such a claim, the onus is on you to provide evidence.
And if my attitude bothers you, then don’t reply. I’m just calmly stating the facts - this could be caused by lag.
