(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.

Text wall. Care to summarize?

You guys shouldn't be complain. We can't kill you from a distance over 5 feet, and either way, we're just having fun. If you have an issue with the knifers, you may want to post on this thread.

hes saying that when you get the STD title you should get stunned, which would discourage using your knife unless absolutely necessary.

Correct me if Im wrong lol

***EDIT***

Idk if the titles should modify the game. A perk that makes people stunned, maybe.

I agree, you guys have overpowered assault rifles and OHKO shotguns, and we have a pistol in our right hand and a knife in our left, yet you guys are complaining?

theres plenty of ways to beat a knifer, the reason most cant is simple, they cant shoot for **** sorry to say

The main reason we're untouchable is because you either:
a) Keep your back turned to us
b) When you see us coming for you from about 20 metres away, you hip-spray, allowing us to minimize the damage with ease
c) Move as a team and don't watch your flanks, allowing us to flank around you and stab your entire group within seconds

Oh my god, you retard, I'm not gonna sit here reading a text wall that says that knifing is bad, when I myself knife for alot of my kills. You guys don't like it, then grow a pair and actually try find a way to kill us before we kill you, instead of bitching about IW changing the game to prevent something they obviously implemented for a reason.

Why would they put tactical knife on a class, aswell as Marathon, Lightweight and Commando in different Perk tiers if they didn't want people to knife?

I'm not taking the time to make videos but it's not about the shooting. I have had it where I have had the drop on the knifer and had several rounds in them but, because of the quantum effect they get to me in a blink of the eye and kill me. I can do it I can beat the knifer, But this game should be about a fair fight and the super speed is not.


The other factor that has not been brought up is that remember this game is not real time there is the illusion of real time. Although it is milliseconds there is never a game without lag. Most of the time it is minuscule enough that game play looks real time. That is why if you look at a kill zone they are way bigger than what a real life would dictate it is to makeup for lag. On a Kill Cam I have I have seen that I have been shot clearly about 1-2 inches off of my actual body but this I am not complaining about because that is not what the shooter saw because of lag. It by nature has to be. The game evens that lag out by creating a larger kill zone. He shoots me on the right side of my body in his view but because of lag I have moved to left a little bit but with a little bit of the kill zone beyond my body it is picked up as a hit. Now you throw in the super speed of a knifer and their perks the millisecond lags that is there was never I am sure factored into this and has allowed these quantum leaps that people see from the knifers where they look as if they have teleported right next to you.

This thread was not a complaint but an offering of a solution so why should it go in the complaints. Thank You though for summarizing.

dylan's right.

In fact, if I saw everybody aiming down their sights instead of hip firing, I'd have half as many knife kills as I do now. And that's a lot.

I live in Australia, so 50% of the games I go to, I'm the one lagging like hell, which gives everyone else the advantage, so not only am I outgunned, but I'm also lagging like hell

lol you'll have better luck dropping out of the game than getting people on board to change up the game. Nothings better than you and four others on your team slicing and dicing up the other team...nothing.:p
