Melee Weapons! would you like to see more variety

I've honestly only used the Biotic Amp for any period of time. I tried the Remnant Gauntlet when I first recovered it, but preferred straight damage from my melee attacks. I will eventually develop a Tier X Asari Sword, but it's below a few other weapons on my list of priorities. I have over 8000 AI Research Points, but they disappear quickly when evolving to Tier X.

ME is a powers and guns game, in my opinion. The new melee weapons are cool in that they don't really distract or disrupt this paradigm for me. I think this is why I like the Biotic Amplifier the most. It seems reasonable within the lore, and doesn't give me any "space ninja" or "knives in a gunfight" vibes.

EDIT: That second sentence was a masterwork of typos!

I'd prefer more tech-style/omni-tool melee weapons. Nothing over the top nor flashy, just quick, useful, and looks like it makes sense lore-wise. N7 Demolisher's melee from ME3 Multiplayer was a pulse blast from the omni-tool which was pretty cool.

Also, Batarian Gauntlet please!

There's no point as long as we only have one melee attack animation.

Yes I know they added aerial melee - but this is exactly the same for all characters in multiplayer and doesn't change - if for example you're a biotic it should be a biotic ground punch similar to nova.

Melee in MEA is a step backwards from ME3 multillayer where we had light attack chains and heavy melee, all of which was different depending on kit. At the very least MEA could do with having light melee chains returned for more attack variety in combat.

I was a little bummed that the energy whips from ME3 multiplayer didn't make an appearance, but honestly I didn't use most of the ones they already do have. There was no reason to use anything other than the asari sword or krogan hammer, as they do the most straight damage, and the secondary effects of the other weapons just weren't good enough to bother with.

Why burn or freeze a target for a couple of seconds when I could just finish them in one blow?

The Dragoon

I admit that at first, I hoped that would be possible to play the game like a beat them all and have classes that nearly only uses their melee weapon.

Hammers and Gauntlets

I like to try different types on the go and swap around alot.

What i wanted to see or what would be great for MEA 2 is...

Step 1. Instant kill bosses having a way out (you will see why). Take the Kett beast

Grabbed - roar - tossed to ground - stomp.

Now changed to this (ps4 as idea):

Grabbed - roar - tossed to ground - Press circle to roll the right dodge first fist - quickly press square to roll left to dodge second fist - both fists raised and come down press x to jump jet backwards away from beast.

Don't press it quick enough - your dead but this gives you a way out.

Step 2. Melee is now a weapon mode and no longer secondary class. This allows for L2 to act as lock on target and for multiple buttons. You could then use abilities in combo with your melee very nicely. Swapping to guns on the go just as normal and allowing for more choice.

The rest of the combat system is superb just melee feels clunky. Plus step 1 will help with MP sync killing (happens abit to myself).

BioWare probably won't go that in depth but new animations for the new melee weapons wouldn't be too hard to do

I'm more into swords my self but Ya another hammer would be awesome

I love what they've done with the melee weapons and I enjoy using them.
I voted "other" because I also want this:
