Nope. I just think it's way gayer than the knife. But unlike most the game is pretty good the way it is, so why patch the RC Car.

I was being sarcastic saying if they should fix anything it would be that.

I don't think they should patch anything. People cry too much about the wrong things. I've seen people complain about Ghost even though you can have a Spy Plane in 2 kills.

People cried about "overpowered" KS in MW2 tho they never had a Stinger class, TreyArch made it so that KS don't stack up and people still complain.

I'd never complain for selfish reasons alone. A knife, RC Car, Ghost, or Noobtube aren't going to make me any better at worse at this game and I wish others would think about that as well.

Knives completely take away EVERY close gun battle, knives are there for the little scrubs that have no gun skill so they get scare, squeeze their controller, and it kills the person for them. You don't even need to be looking at them.

The knife doesn't need to be nerfed, but the mechanics of knifing in the game need to be adjusted, at least for BO.

One hit kill knife, bound to a single key press is a staple in the COD series now, so leave it at that. Though, changing how it behaves in situations may fix some glaring problems that seem to be compounded with the lag issues. Change also evolves the damn game; they speak about tweaking the knife lunge as if they didn't even think this all the way through...

• What about no knife lunge from the front unless you have ballistic knife equipped?
• What about no lunge at all unless ballistic knife is equipped?
(these may address "commando lunge")

• What about the knifing distance is reduced if you are flinched by a bullet?
(this might address "panic knifing")

But seriously I've gotten killed by BS knife and killed people with it, leave it alone. I mean what constitutes "BS"? I'm sure every who plays this game feels "cheated" at some point or another but that's human nature. I mean a lot of factors go into kills and death INCLUDING LAG. So to act as the Knife is some huge deal breaker with this game is comical.

I get your opinion though. I mean I am a shoot first guy even when it comes to close up. But they people who want to make Knife a 2 hit Melee or take it out entirely should really STFU, it's a death lets just deal with it.




Well that's true. I guess we can't really judge it until the lag on PS3 is fixed, or we can judge it with the XBOX (which I don't really know how it is doing, I just hear its playing BlackOps like an actual game)

Yes, 2 hit kill just isn't COD like, I don't think the lunge has to be removed because then the knife is useless. It just needs to be reduced to a close distance where in real life (yes, I know the game has a lot of things that are not similar to IRL) a person could extend his arm and hit you.

Anyways; since BO came out, I've been thinking "Forget the killstreaks/weapons/knife balance, FIX THE LAG AND FRAMERATE, then we can actually know what needs fixing when it comes to the gameplay"

But since 3arc/Activision/ Satan wants to work on it all together....I guess I'll just wait and play something else lol....nah JK, BlackOps is fine for me except for framerate...I don't lag, but everyone else in the game does (and I'm not host)

The problem about fixing panic knifing is that some people (example: me) (and this happens to me like 3 times per game) see someone on a building, like a balcony on Havana, and go up the building knowing that person may show up out of a certain door at any moment and are prepared to knife them when we pass the door if they are there, so it isn't really panic knifing, just tactical.

Panic, on the other hand, is "la-la-la just walking here minding my own bus- O SH*T *knife*"
You know what, scratch that, I think they *knife* first then after that say "O sh*T"

It's different thinking for the killer but the same result/ 'BS' reaction for the victim.


Maybe the option some people have brought, changing the knife button to one you have to raise a finger you would use for something 'important' and move it to the button to knife. If they do that, the 'tactical' guy will be ready.. the 'paniker' won't

Because seriously, I man seriously nerfing a knife? "I bet if they patch that darn overpowered knife, THEN I would beast people"....SMH


Haha this made me laugh. I agree with u tho. Knifing is fine. Doesnt need to be changed at all.

Make it pull out a knife as weapon instead or just punch/stab the enemy with your gun, i want to stab some guy in the eye with the scope of my L96 :y:

The knife may be the same as MW2, but if you make all of the guns weaker you have to do the same with the knife. If the same is not done with the knife this creates balance issues. In my opinion there should be no lunge, just a slash.

Oh i love this post just because of the irony i believe it holds......

Simple fix
Remove the lunge ain't that hard.

I still think most of the issues are due to latency not the knife.

How could you be bad at knifing? You hit the button and you lunge right into someone. Most people who want it "fixed" want it fixed because they keep dying by long knife lunges. It's annoying. That's EXACTLY why you don't like the RC Car, you continue to die by them and they're annoying.

Just like what he said above me. Your post is so ironic.
