I say no because it's so -blam!- when all that stands between me and killing a guy is a unch while we're reloading, I throw the punch first, and I somehow miss and he ends up beating me down first. And with the sword I freaking hit a guy today and went flying across the map. Lunging is so retarded.

Only with the sword cause if there wasnt lunging with the sword it would be pretty much useless

Only with swords, and the possible Machete. Everything else should be more like Halo, and take more skill than Halo 2 did.

You're only -blam!-ing about it because you were the victim. If you weren't the victim, I bet you would think differently.

I like the lunging feature. Makes the sword more fun to use.

So you're saying when we're meleeing we should be able to hit the guy from about 6-7 feet away from him?

some with the sword, becase most of the time when i try to dodge it, he slashes and i jump and he chages his flyt right into me..... or is that auto aim......

It had about as much range as the lunge, only you had to aim your melees in Halo, while the Aim Assist does so for you in Halo 2.

No, take the lunge out. It makes no sense on how the Master Chief can lunge while he is in the air. You can also lunge through people, which is annoying, and it is not caused by lag.

Who's Lunging? If he really has that big of a problem, he should be in a facility, don't you think? Friends don't let friends be "retarded".

Nothing personal...

I think there should be lunging in Halo 3, but it would be redone so that it's not automatic. For example- You could hold down the melee button (Trigger on Sword) and when released it'll lunge forward based on how long you've held it. (Longer lunge on Sword) Of course the lunge range would be pretty low. It could also do "while running/jumping" increased melee damage this way.

The only purpose of the sword is lunging.. If it didn't lunge, you'd never use it. You'd be killed before getting in range.
