In Halo 1 ihated watching all my marines just watch as they got melee attacked by an elite in the middleof the group. I think they should give the marines a melee attack, or even better, combos like chief. It would be a great improvement.

u know what they really need?? a little better reaction time to grenades. it was like a deer in headlights when a plasma grenade was thrown near them. and i wouldnt complain either if they got one stuck to them and "took one for the team" by not running into everyone

Are you trying to say Marines cant strike just because they're " inferior ", any1 can swing a punch, but it doesnt mean the marines would take out the Elites faster than MasterChief would

XSAVAGE, i no but still. Anyone can throw a punch or hit something with the butt of their weapon. Its common sense u'd think for a marine to attack like that.

SB-117

A marine punching an elite energy shield would be feeble. They may be able to hurt the grunts though but they wouldnt kill them.

Great minds think alike.. :D

And even if its a feeble attack, better than standing in the way and being struck at. The Marines should be able to strafe attacks by elites just as quick as MasterChief does, its merely common sense to move / juke an enemy swing when he's right in front of you.

They should load my gun and -blam!- it too. It's not like they're gonna survive when MC mindlessly blows up earth by following Guilty Spark around, so they should make themselves useful.

OK, marines are normal humans. They don't have the kind of fist power MC has, and they don't have MJOLNIR. If they melee an Elite they'd probably end up hurting themselves more than the Elite.

Okay, so if what your saying is true, then the barbarian beserkers couldnt possibly have killed the Roman Legionnares, seeing as the Roman's had more training and they had more armor and better weapons, and the barbarians did not. Just because they're not quite as armored doesnt mean they have to PUNCH them. Ever think of the blunt of the weapon, oh yeah, and its not like marines are these skinny little tooth picks, they've had military training, so they have alot of muscle, think before you post. Thank you.

marines arent strong enough to mele an elite.. maybe some grunts and jackals but not elites..

what i want to see is marines getting smarter so that they dont throw a frag grenade right where their buddies are gonna walk
