I think the melee needs to be changed badly.
Yesterday after a rousing Sprite i decided to spend some time to play ESF, i was already disappointed just by the amount of servers, (because i hadn't played since it came out because of how bad the melee is) which on the day of release was a raging 200 servers, and has now dropped to a magnificent 20 servers.
To the point, the Melee is terrible, it was okay at first, but when you just lock on and hit someone across the map, it's lame.
I believe a combo system would actually make it more realistic and fun.
I mean think about it, locking on and knocking somebody away not only gets boring but it also removes the effectiveness of beams.
Beams are almost impossible to use if you keep getting meleed.
In fact, the only time i was able to use beams was when i sat in a corner and wasnt seen, or when i hit someone on the ground and he didnt know how to get up.
Otherwise theres no way to pull off a strong beam with more than a 3 second charge time.
In fact, i played for only 12 minutes before i realized almost nobody was using beams and it was basically melee (which was of course just hitting everyone across the level)
Terrible melee, fix it up.
