Throwing knives

Got a great new idea for the game?

Throwing knives

Postby GeneralAssball » Wed Aug 08, 2012 4:05 pm

I really don't know if this idea has been declined, so i'm just gonna go ahead and explain it anyways.

Throwing knives are the solution of when you're reloading and out of nowhere an enemy pops out and kills you.
These knives will save you from that. The knives will be used just like grenades except for the exploding part. Which means you can hold the knife as long as you want without it exploding like a grenade would normally do.

-How the knives work
You will have a red dot on the screen as a marker that indicates where you wanna throw the knife.
These knives are close range weapons only. Around 2 meters away from your enemy (in game).
These knives are a 1 hit kill only when you are close to your enemy (just like shotgun when you are close range),

Amount of knives you can carry
You will only be allowed to carry 3 knives
If you run out, go back to the tent and get some more.

Yes please. Well, except for the limited range thing. It'd be fun to do cross-maps, and wouldn't be overpowered or anything.

It should be 1 hit kill to head. 3 to other body parts. Should have some kind of drop when in midair.

I think this would push the game back into the CoD clone category, because it'll just make the 5-year olds rage harder when someone randomly hits them across the map. (ex. an Arena map) So I'm kinda iffy about this.

I don't think it is really required. If an enemy did manage to get you while your reloading, good for them. There is a good chance they waited for you to reload. Also, why not use the spade? If your too far away, go for cover. If you don't have any cover, what the heck were you doing?

Do I really need to say how stupid the idea of Throwing knives are? I mean, it's not like "Let me reload this... OHSHIT A NAZl[or North-vietnamese, or North Korean, or German...], LET ME THROW THIS KNIFE AT HIM, OBVIOUSLY MORE EFFECTIVE THAN A GODDAMN PISTOL"-ish situations happened all the time.

Throwing melee weapons have been declined numerous times first off

Second off, if the enemy catches you reloading, that means they are good with timing, patience, etc. Your fault for getting caught reloading in the first place.

Thirdly, if you throw your spade, chances are it travels 2 feet and falls down.

Forth, reload time isn't very long, if you can just sprint left to right real quick chances are you'll rarely get hit before you can fight back at the guy standing still trying to hit you.
