OK, let's say I have a battle rifle. I can jump in the air and pistol whip with this battle rifle, right? I can also jump and press the "R" button to shoot the battle rifle in the air as well, correct?

Now let's say I have the Covenant energy sword. I press the "B" button to melee attack. I'm pretty sure you can jump in the air and hit the "B" button to melee attack in mid air. BUT, my question is: What will happen if you jump in mid air, and press the "R" button for the lunge attack? (with the crosshair RED indicating a lock on of course)

or maybe the new MJOLNIR Mark VI has rocket packs and when he jumps and does the lunge attack he "rocket mans" the sword though your neck.

If you watched Wort(Max) demonstrate the sword on the E3 demo, he does two different slashes (I would assume B and R were used as either one or the other). If R is used as lunge as well then you will lunge if you are aligned, but simply upercut with R if you aren't. Did that make any sense?

maybe we will lunge forward in midair, and it will be a good way to get across big gaps....but probably not

I think Bungie's made it so that bug won't be exploitable... it wouldn't be good for the physics to be unreal.
