There are hundreds of game that when you use a knife you have a way to throw them to kill people at a distance, so why cant we do it in dist?
Does CCP not see how much fun it would be to let us use throwing knives against red dots?
And if they didn't take it out of hot fix charlie, nova knives will do 50% bonus damage to tanks and lavs and ds, so being able to throw them would mean the difference between life and death for a scout with nova knives when the tanks blow up. |

Wait so....to be clear, you want to throw a 6 inch knife at an armored vehicle and make it blow up?
they are adding 50$% bonus damage against tank and stuff in hotfix charlie ( unless it was removed ) to nova knives.
so yes i do expect if a tank is damaged enough to be able destroy it with a nova knife, but not a tank that has full health unless i was able sneak up on it from behind and get on top of it.

Only people who are trained to use throwing knives are truly deadly, the hand is quicker then the eye, so a knife could be thrown even before you see whats going on. |

Next thing you know, you'll want sniper knives! You already got cloaks for christ's sakes. You want to be able to be invisible and throw knives? Quick uncloak, throw knife, quick re-cloak and move on?
If you want to throw knives and be invisible, go find ninja games.
I have been the biggest advocate against turning dust into another CoD game, but throwing knives are not just in CoD. Throwing knives are in hundreds of games, even Assassin's Creed they use throwing knives in black flag.
Throwing knives have been in games for as long as i can remember so why can't we have them in dust?
The only thing it would do is make killing with nova knives a little bit easier since you dont have be within 3m to get a kill

NO.. no COD mechanics here so please STFu and GTFO and go DIAF
Throwing knives is not a CoD mechanic. it's been part of games for over 20 years |

Stupid already took control of dust long time ago, its called the endless qq nerf/buff cycle

well seeing as we can charge up nova knives to hold a plasma charge within the blade why can't we throw them with our using those lovely strength enhanced exoskeletons embedded in the suit. of course to do any real damage it would have to be fully charged to do any real damage and they would only be effective at max 30m-50m max. |

Throwing knives did not start in CoD, I was able use throwing knives in Turok for the N64 before CoD was even created.
Any game that ever had a knife in it had the option to throw them, so why can't we have it in dust? |

Your talking about a game where everything goes against physics, we can walk on planets with enough gravity to squash a person into a pancake, you fire laser laser beams from guns, you have knives that can hold a plasma charge in its blade without melting, and so on and so forth. So how does being able to throw knives change any of that lol |

So how does being able to throw knives change any of that lol It wouldn't necessarily ignore physics when one possess the technology to counter it ,or it is far beyond our understanding. You can't apply arguments to a game's concept that likely has far surpassed the current human understanding and application of technology... or they possess technology that we do not possess, nor can fathom. For all we know we have gravity fields planted on these very planets, or the MCC is capable of generating one powerful enough. The suits themselves may have the ability to withstand extreme levels of gravity as well... In Eve, apparently there are turrets that, in theory, could destroy entire planets... it would be probable enough to assume that they can also manipulate planets themselves.
ok so in all of this theory that pertaining to eve and dust, it's not possible to make throwing knives?
