Halo 3

I agree with them. Halo 3's melee attack is penultimatly gay.

The main problem I see with LIVE play is that in ot cases, the only thing that matters is who shoots who first. You can get lucky with a grenade or good weapon, but that's generally the bulk of your kills.

Pretty much 😄

Why whine about melees now? They have been around since the first Halo. Quite in fact Melees do not have the range they used to have in Halo 2, and you can no longer hack the game to spam BXBs(melees) on your enemy. The melees make more damage now, but you have to be closer this time around. IMO if you are close enough to get melee'd, and you didn't melee first you deserve to die.

Because the meleee attack in Halo 1 wasn't nearly as cheap as it is in 2 and 3?

And besides, many times I've melee'd first, and for whatever reason I end up dying instead, even if I've already disabled there shields. This has happened to all of my buddies, too.

wow.. way to miss the point, genius....

the video is showing that people who melee first, DIE... k?

So that's what it is.

Muther****er!!!

It happens to me all the time.

One question though with the first example in the first video, would that guy who meleed first kill that guy that has the extra bit of health?

He didn't miss the point. He's SBP, my best friend!

he made both healthbars sink to a point where 1 melee hit 'would' finish the other person off... but the person who melee'd first had a sliver less health than the dude who melee'd second.. thus he get smashed by the 2nd person

If he did realise that the first person to land the melee does not win the battle (even during a time when 1 melee hit should kill the other person), he wouldnt have said that.. thus he missed the point and told us to stop whining and play Halo 1

That was the only thing I though of as evidence to go against that.

But it didnt work... and now I would say..

****ing cheap.

They should fix it with a patch. It's plainly obvious its bad and unlike some problems in MP games, melee hits sometimes contribute to atleast 50% of the winner kill total.

I admit that happens every now and then. But I usually pay it no mind. In Halo 1 the melee is not that big of a problem because there is an even bigger problem: the pistol. You'll be hard pressed to get close enough for a melee when the pistol will ass rape you from a long distance. However I don't encounter the melee problem that often because I usually frag them before I go close for the melee.

In any case, yeah, the melee is somewhat unreliable, but then again lots of things are online. Lag can be a huge factor in the outcome of battles. There are times I swear I've hit people with a sniper headshot, and it does not kill them. There are others I am certain I didn't hit them, and they die.

I went overboard when i said you guys were whinning, and I'm sorry. Bad habit of mine that I need to correct. However I never said go play Halo 1.

Wow, I just never noticed about the melee thing, I just went with Bungie and assumed it was good, which I still think it is fine.

LoL.

Halo can be so insane. Last nigh I was playing custom games and I was fighting a guy...we both meleed...we ended up assassinating each other.

How the fvck is that even possible?

durlaugh

I noticed it.

I dont really care that much though.

SPB who were those that we played with? And why weren't you talking.. like, at all?

Also.. that match type is fun as hell.

Same... it doesnt ruin the game for me.. but it does cause confusion, and I hope at least something gets done about it

especially with my one friend who complains about everything to begin with

I've had that happen to me. I've been gunning down a guy from behind and then I go for the melee while he is trying to run around a corner and after I hit him I was assassinated. 😛

Did you guys see the crazy grenade throw?
(I dont know if I saw it here, or found it by accident)

YouTube video

Holy shit lmfao.

Zombies" is honestly the funnniest game type I've ever played.
