Ranger Intel Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 So I was looking over this weeks Community Poll by BeckoningZebra1 and the Halo 4 assasinations list by -Sparky-, and I thought to myself "Imagine assassinations in 1st Person.". Say you're heading towards the objective or tracking down an enemy then all of a sudden your screen get pull back and you see the helmet of an enemy player then a knife comes plunging into your screen and your visor cracks. Sounds good? Imagine you are the assassin and you are stealthily crouched awaiting your prey, an enemy walks past and you pull out your knife, watch your hand reach out and grab the enemy by the collar and pull them back whilst at the same time watching your knife enter their through. Would you like to see assassinations in 1st person instead of 3rd person in Halo 5: Guardians? Share your thoughts. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and White Puff Reach Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Make it a preference, some people have seasures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBritishSpartan Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I agree with Blue and white, Make it a option but don't force it on people. I would use it, Since it's a awesome idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EliteSniper Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 The idea is great, but when assassinating in first person, the advantage of looking around for just a second or two will be lost. Other than that, I believe it would be a nice addition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unease Peanut Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Make it a preference, some people have seasures Agreed. People might get heart attacks! But I'd really like to see it in 1st person. Good example it Battlefield 3 and 4 where you suddenly get pulled back or rolled over and see a knife rush at you. One thing I'd like to add as a detail would be if you get stabbed in the head or something that your screen will black out instantly because yeah... You dead. Or when you get stabbed in the neck or chest that your screen will fade out and that your Spartan might even move slightly while he's bleeding out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never knew it was like that in Titanfall. Should be something very similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guts Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 That would be a great idea. Especially if the person being assassinated is in first person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Dragons Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Its similar to Medal of Honor: War Fighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unease Peanut Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Oh I forgot Titanfall had this as well! Too bad that there's only one assassination animation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckoningZebra1 Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I think this would be a really cool feature to have. Though, some of the Assassinations should be 1st person or 3rd person specific because of the way they play out. But I really like the idea of seeing Sparks look me square in the eyes as he brings his arm down to smite me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrhuntington Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Ewww... Just imagine getting your neck snapped in First person, and being jump scared no less! I see this as a cool thing, but I see it as unlikely to happen, and it will probably stay as third person. More or so due to the fact that you're already hindered by not being able to move while assassinating, but also having a restricted view at the same time would screw you the moment you got out of it. Maybe they should make an early leave/abort button for assassinations. What I'd really like to see is more assassinations that are gun specific. Like if you had a pistol, You knee them to the ground and as they get up you stick the pistol to the side of their head and blow their brains out. (too gruesome?) Of course this would be like a 1/50 chance type of assassination like the Brutes butt stab in Halo: Reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francesco Interchief Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 I agree with the murder in the first person, maybe change this option through the settings. With regard to the first of the vehicles, here too I agree changing the view using the left analog stick, where you press to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
master elite Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 i can't find a video or a pic but like in halo reach you where about to be stabled by elite only to be saved by carter i think if its something like that sure but only with out the saving well unless your team mate does save you and if in team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Biggles Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Good idea, but keep 3rd person for obvious health risks, and have a safety warning if you pick 1st person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldfreeze Posted June 13, 2014 Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Did you know Killzone has this mechanic? The assasin sees it first person, while the victim sees it happening in third person. But first perons assassinations should look really cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIWBC Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 I think that this will be a brilliant idea for in game. It will add much more to the immersion . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldfreeze Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 I would like to see at least some blood while I stab someone, not a lot but just some. But it should be nothing to brutal though. Halo should not lose its 16+ rating. I mean the killzone assassination has one where your marine rams his thumbs trough the Helghasts goggles, while the dude is screaming. It is incredibly brutal (hence the victim sees them from third person.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ardent Prayer Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 I agree. There should be some preference in Halo 5 that you can toggle to see first-person assassinations. As cool as the Halo Reach and Halo 4 assassinations are, I prefer the BF4 and Titanfall kills. It's hard to maintain a sense of character when everytime you bash someone from behind your character zooms out to third person. It's more freaky, and more realistically cool to see either your neck snapped or you twisting the other players head. It's all around more cool. I agree, H5G should have Titanfall/BF4-Style Assassinations. Imagine you Sniping, and all of a sudden you see a hand cover your Visor and pull back, seeing the Spartan who just killed you. I'm all on this idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delpen9 Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Do you want the assassinated person or the assassin to go into first-person? This could be yet another toggle option that'll reduce from the game, but should be there none-the-less if it's appropriate for 343 to do so. This has the potential to make game scary (imagine infection mode-- energy swords-- OMG). WHAT IF AIs COULD ASSASSINATE!!!? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rrhuntington Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 WHAT IF AIs COULD ASSASSINATE!!!? I would just about mess my drawers. (Crap myself) If that happens that would make campaign exponentially more difficult, because that means if I move the wrong way, I'm getting stabbed. I feel though as if certain enemies should only be able to do this, along with this being only capable on higher difficulty settings. A grunt should NEVER be able to assassinate a Spartan. A baby flood assassination would be cool, as you get to watch yourself get turned into a flood. In the end though, I feel as if it'd be a cheap way to die.

Vaulting♥Frog Posted June 17, 2014 Report Share Posted June 17, 2014 Here is the deal with First Person Assassinations... They wouldn't have any of the flashy sequences that we are used to seeing. Air assassinations would be basically nixed as they would be a bit too complex unless it goes to a standard neck snap. Most of everything would be done as just a standard neck snap to be honest as it allows for quicker assassinations to keep combat flowing. Personally while I think it might speed up the flow of combat, there would be too much taken away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
