What's funny about the whole melee issue is that in the end, to avoid frustration, you just have to get better at Halo! I mean, it comes down to you being more reliant on your gun and taking the effort to go for the headshot spray, so that by the time you get into melee range, you've dished out more hurt than the other guy. And heres the thing: If you DO go for those headshots, you'll probably gun your opponent down well before the melee is even needed. Go ahead, try it. Stand about 20 feet away from another player and dump an AR clip right into his face. Watch how fast he drops. Yeah, its frustrating to know that you should have had that crazy melee kill in the hallway, that you earned it. But the thing is, those were the old rules. In H3, you really DIDN'T earn it. The other guy was more accurate and skillfull in his weapon discharge, you meleed a person while his friend was also hurting you, or you blindly took more splash damage than you should have. That's really all there is to it.
I 100% agree with you gripp. LEAVE THE MELEE IN HALO 3 ALONE!
