(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My solution to Quantum knifing. (I made this thread on naming it that the other day look it up) I don't care what people say, there is no name for it so I thought of one. come up with something better and I will use it.

Lets think a little bit about what a melee intent was for.
It was a tool in your arsenal that if you came down to no ammo and no time to reload you could take the initiative before the other person and melee(knife) before you were killed. (this should have no debate that is its intent a goto weapon.
Well IW in their infinite wisdom has by allowing certain perks and them being in different sets have created a whole new intent that of the professional knifer.

Yes it does detract from the game (go ahead debate this but I guarantee a poll would agree with me..

Now for the solution.

When you knife someone with STD you get the STD or the patch for STD and that is it.

What if while you were patched with the STD title it did something more to someone who knifed you.

It acts in the way a stun or flash grenade does it will "stun" you for a short time, maybe slow you down or disorient you.

This would bring back the knife to a part of the persons arsenal and not turn it into a class.
It is the adage of action/reaction measure/countermeasure.
Right now there is no countermeasure to a quantum knifer but add this there is. This would allow the perks to still survive intact and not be watered down for someone that has integrated them into their own custom class and allow them to be used as intend.

Sorry I misread your first post

Hell I went through the strictly knifing phase. (got my first nuke that way) Now I'm in what I call the "hunting" phase, I use the intervention and m1014. I've got all the ghillie suits, 5 headshots to red tiger, and yesterday I got 2 nukes and one no nuke 30-0 perfect game. (all 3 games on ffa) No I didn't camp on any of them I stalk.

Basically what I'm trying to get across to you is, don't say knifers have no skill. It is far easier for me to scope you in from across the map than it ever was to juke my way through an entire hip fired magazine and stab you. Its only a matter of time before everyone realizes the awesome one shot power of the intervention, and the near invisibility of the desert ghillie. Then some clown with no counter measure for it will demand the blocking of stopping power pro on the intervention.

In short, why don't you try running around with only a knife before talking smack.(any idiot can do it on terminal and the like try wasteland) Then after you've had your fill of 1887s to the face and sniper rounds to the back come back and edit your post.

...I'm sure if your a beef cake + roids/pcp you could handle a dual ranger gunfight...

easy way to stop them knifing u is knife them first people who get mad at this stuff are people who arnt good at it
