Knives need to be cut down damage wise. The 1 swipe kill is ridiculous, that is not realistic.

2/6 of my squad get knifed before the other 4 could take him out. I mean, seriously. Think about it.

The knife is already very situational - you rarely have the time to pull it out without getting shot at a distance. Nerfing damage is really unnecessary.

ehhh watch your back maybe? Its there to simulate your throat getting slit or w/e, not a small flesh wound, if we made the kinfes require 2 stabs they would become useless. They are fine the way they are and a fun bit of the game.

-Must be something like 2 weeks since I last got stabbed, and that was by some guy sneaking up on me while I was COing. If people manage to sneak up on you they should have the pleasure of stabbing you to death, if you can't kill someone coming at you wielding a knife then you deserve to die.

"It's just a flesh wound"

When you say the knife is overpowered and give the enemy the chance to get so close, I say you're underpowered.

-A dedicated knife user.

Knifing is underpowered, the amount of times i have sneaked up on someone, stabbed them, and then they turn round and unlaod a shit load of lead into you!

The game cannot replace pure stealth and pure aim, so it has to be forfitted with punch! Lets be honest, you arnt going to stab someone and completely miss the target areas (Minus armoured vest coverage)

So damn anoying.

Still doesn't change the fact it isn't realistic.

Besides I really have no interest in listening to idiots who knife whore.

Lols, no need to start calling people idiots.

It'd be more unrealistic if there was no stealthy way of killing someone with a knife... idiot

Any Arguments?

Its there to simulate your throat getting slit or w/e, not a small flesh wound - Rhino

They are fine the way they are and a fun bit of the game. - That same Rhino.

..

Considering how hard it is to hit someone that's moving I think they're fine. Otherwise I'd agree.

REally if nearly 1/3 of your squad gets knifed before you reacts you should begin wearing glases. Either that or your squad was noobs only looking in their scopes. Its fine as it is.

ALso as Rhino said getting knifed is the image of getting the throath slith.

It's fine as is. Actually, I'd like to know why sometimes knifing fails on a stationary target. I'll swipe, but it will "miss" somehow. Then I get shot.

So I normally just stick to a pistol.

Also, how the HELL do you "knife whore"? And are you really a marine? If not, get that USMC out of your name, you didn't earn it.

packets get lost, most common happens when you have a high pings but not necessarily, or you could just miss the target since you dont have a dot in the center to show when your aiming your knife. 95% of the time i knife a still unsuspecting target

Nah he's got a keyboard and knife, I'd say he's earned it.

This is a joke, right?

One swipe kills? I want your hitreg.

If you're a soldier moving in to kill an enemy with a knife, how would you knife them? Would you just slash like a madman, making a commotion and taking a longer time, or stealthily remove your target by aiming for a vital point?

Keep the knives the way they are, and give Insurgents machetes.

I am sorry you got owned by a knife wielding player, but hey it happens. Maybe you watch out next time. You won´t be happy until we nerf everything except yourself.
