The 1 hit knife isn't the issue nor trying to determine that a guy is panicking as opposed to SIMPLY HAVING SLIGHTLY BETTER REFLEXES THAN YOU IN THAT ISOLATED INCIDENT. The issue is being able to knife while getting shot. That should be changed. If two people run into each other up close and the guy just knifes before you get a chance to, then that is fair especially if lag isn't involved.
It's speaks to a bigger problem with COD community, things are the way they are.We ALL have knives. If a guy's natural inclination is to knife you up close while yours is to try to shoot, then that is on you. I myself only have maybe 70 knife kills in like 12 prestiges so I am a knife last person. Difference is, I see someone knifing me as me not thinking quick enough more times than not. Only time I get pissed at knifers is when I am shooting them and they knife me anyway normally due to lag. However that pales in comparison to the amount of grenade deaths where a guy literally throws grenade in the air or a 11-30 guy gets a Stealth Bomber.
I'm glad you brought up OMA. I'd rather 1 out of maybe 30 deaths be from "panic" knifing than 8-10 out of 30 from noobtubing like back in MW2. I am all about changing the logic of knifing. However it's sour grapes to act like a guy is knifing you in fear as opposed to just being quicker on the trigger than you. I don't knife, so I usually drop shot or have high sensitivity so I can turn on the guy. Which decreases the amount of times I get knifed. And like I mentioned even when I drop shot then guys call you a try hard for doing that. COD community has an excuse or explanation for everything nowadays. I am not accusing you nor anyone in this thread of this though. I once got 50 kills rushing with an M16 prepatch(one of the weaker guns especially to rush with and the dude called me a "no life virgin"...Although I did break up with my lady so I was pretty dry :carling:
