I won't read that because I haven't completed the game yet, but I'm at least eighty percent done now, and I don't get it. The only complaint I have is the combat, and I have a pretty big complaint about that. It's awful. It just doesn't work right. Shepherd will not stay in cover. He bounces out of it if you even think about looking in another direction, and instantly gets his ass hammered by every cocksucker on the screen. I had to do one particular battle ten fucking times because I couldn't convince the son of a bitch to stay in cover. And then there is the bullshit decision to have the hardest enemies to kill decide that close combat is the way to go. This game is not designed for close combat. Shepherd's normal melee move is unbelievably weak, and his strong melee takes so long to execute that half of the enemies just stroll to the other side of you while you're performing it. Not to mention that doing this means you have to stand up, and leave cover, opening you up to every motherfucker with a rocket launcher to fuck your asshole loose.

I haven't had any issues with the cover system. Not as bad as you anyway. And as far as the close combat..I don't know. I play as a vanguard, so if they're not coming to me, I'm closing in on them. Haven't really had any complaints about the enemy AI flanking in close. If anything it's made my experience more enjoyable.
