In Halo:CE even on Normal mode you had to punch a blue Elite at least 4 times before it died. And you had to be quick pr he'd beat you to a pulp and go momentarily blind. On A red Elite, forget about it. Thats like 6 hits.
God I loved that. Melee combat in Halo:CE was genuinely challenging, from H2 onwards it was just mash B until the bad man goes away. Elites were so tough, Zealots were impossibly tough and Flood was just impossible. Not sure why Flood got so weak after Halo1.......
I just played Assault on the Control Room yesterday on Legendary. Not only is the melee weaker, but your resources are very limited. I found myself facing two hunters, two jackals, and some grunts, with only a half-empty plasma rifle, and a plasma pistol. Hopefully ODST will also make you manage your resources carefully.
