Bump up the range of the nova knives a few meters... 
or atleast give them a wider hit range... 
I don't like hugging my targets anymore then the next ninja, but alas, thats the only way to get a hit with these infernal contraptions.
If i had to compare this butter knife to any other weapon in games i've played i'd have to pick "the fork of horripilation" from morrowind or the BB Gun from fallout.

And a one shot kill on back stab or headshot.
Assassination is my thing.

Yeah, projectile hit detection seems pretty good- just make NKs have a virtual projectile with, say, a 1-2m optimal and 0% damage at 3m. It wouldn't be overpowered, and it might actually work! |

Even just a arc like swipe would help alot.
your target has to be directly infront of you to get a hit.
if they move a foot they are out of the hit range an its a miss.

Always seems weird to me that someone can avoid my first knife swipe by walking directly through the arc on my left side. |

This will sound very familiar to many of you, but my suggestion:
- Increase the aim-assist with Nova Knives
- Add about a 1 meter "lunge" when using them.
Now you've got yourself a very viable melee weapon in a long range gun-game.
Who cares what some sniper has to say

I'd like to see the ability for nova knives to disable hacking consoles for 30 seconds. Like, you smash the console with your knife and no one can hack it for a while, until its automatically repaired.
Would be useful for a scout that needs to buy time for his team to get there. Smash the console, and go ninja knife some enemies as they wait for it to reset.

Wait, wait, wait... What? Do you understand how much of an increase that is?
Think of it this way. An average human arm isn't even a full meter long, and the average human body isn't even a full two meters tall. We probably couldn't reach out two meters to hit something without a decently sized sword (around half as long as you are tall) or equivalent weapon. Knives are out of the question. They're far too short.
Humanity is the personification of change.

REs man, will buy you time if you kill someone or if they stop to destroy them.
As a logi you can run multiple REs and hold down an objective for an awful long time if you know how to hide them properly.
