    Origins is deceiving

    Do not get me wrong I have never been so hyped for a game and cannot wait to get this game and play for many many hours. The only problem I have with this game is no stealth take downs and hand to hand combat. In origins the firefighter takes a dude out with a hatchet. I really hope I am wrong and we can actually do this in the game. And yes I understand that live action videos always have items in it that will not be in game; however, this game would be on a whole new level with that stuff in as well. Like the last of us style melee kills and hand to hand combat. Again, stoked for this game, but that would be great.

    Like I said I know that live action trailers are not in game content. I am just saying that I wish there were hand to hand combat and stealth kills. Thats all.

    Why? Did you read the post? I understand that everything in live action trailers will not be in the game. I am just saying I would have loved to have hand to hand combat and stealth kills.

    I do not play COD so I cannot speak to that. But the last of us was incredible and that kind of melee would be awesome. A hatchet or machete would be super fun.

    They had melee. It wasn't right for this game. They took it out. I think after the gameplay emerges we will come to appreciate that choice.

    Stealth kills were removed from the game and i personally don't mind that. In terms of melee there isn't a melee system like the last of us or anything like that. It does have melee strikes though so you can hit people with the stock of your weapon or pistol whip them. It does okay damage and can momentarily stun an enemy

    This ^^. Early concepts had stealth take downs and melee type attacks but was ultimately removed. Don't know the reasons for this decision but playing the Alpha, it really didn't make much of an impact.

    Why compare to cod and not say rainbow six, or ghost recon?
