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.
"Only people who are trained to use throwing knives are truly deadly"... What is the point you are trying to make about not implementing throwing knives?

In destiny you don't even have to pick up your knife after throwing it, it just teleports back to you, and I assume that's done with 'light', which can also spawn vehicles and teleport you into/out from your ship.

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. im going to say.. 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 nowp only game iv seen throwing knives or throwing melee weapons in is COD games after they became lame (aka when they stopped makeing WW2 games)
You don't play to many games then... do you?

You forget in the games your talking about they A don't wear armor or B it ignores physics and kills them anyway. we don't want stupid in this game so just drop it please.
You're saying it's stupid and pointless (your opinion you have yet to explain why), yet you're explaining exactly why it would work in a game such as this... I'm confused...

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
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.

It's the exact opposite. There is no reason why it shouldn't be possible...
