What if the assassination animation changed depending on what weapon the player is holding. The Energy Sword already has its own assassinations. The main ones i though of were:
Gravity Hammer:
-turn the hammer and whack the other player with the bladed end
-kick the other player to the ground and bash their helmet in with it
Magnum:
-hard punch to the gut to break shield, followed by a bullet to the underside of their skull
Other Brute weapons:
-[no explanation required]
Rifles:
-Tackle the other player, then clobber them with the stock of the weapon
-hit over the head with the stock, then bullet in the head
Shotgun:
-Tackle the other player to the ground, and put a shell into the back of their skull
Storm Rifle:
-Similar to what Thorne does in a Spartan Ops, knock the other player down and shoot them in the face

Would work like the flamerthrower execution in GOW3 where ammo isn’t used despite the weapon being fired.
The Needler assassination could be smacking the needle end of the gun into the poor sod’s face & kicking him away to escape the needles’ super combine.

Maybe whack the needler into their back then kick REALLY hard
> A nice one with the Shotgun would be first whacking the opponent in the chest and then holding the barrel to their face: BOOM
“Agent Washington, You’ve just been Sarge’d.”
OT: I don’t like the idea of the weapon firing, but specific assassinations would be cool.
Anyone here seen Haliod? (Halo Spartan vs Samus created by Monty Oum from Rooster Teeth). Well basically, there’s a BR bit in there where cheif closehangers a ghost with a BR.
Would be interesting to see that kind of assassination. Flip your gun around, grab it by the barrel, and swing it like a longsword at the back of their head.
