Honestly this melee it's poor!
Halo does it better, CS does it better, War for Cybertron does it better, Killzone 2 & 3 does it better, Crysis does it better...almost any FPS/shooter does it better then Dust 514. |

If you bothered reading the blog blog about the Nova Knife you would know that the blade is surrounded by hot plasma which means it can cut through any dropsuit easy.
Also if you want to kill someone in an armor with a kinfe you might want to stab him because clearly you can't cut the jugular or other arteries since they are protected...which is why slash instant melee are silly in FPS to begin with and why Halo, KZ have animation stabbing melee! |

As I said you don't use a knife to cut through an armor you use it to pierce/stab through it.
Don't mistake animation melee with instant kill.
Instant Kill is COD, animations driven melee is Riddick, The Darkness 1 & 2 KZ and Halo. |

Well it's not a Lightsaber but this doesn't mean that it should be as good as a 2012 knife!

What then: Nova Knife is there here but CCP could not come out with an idea (lore) to make it truly effective!
So they HAD to make a melee because all FPS has it but didn't think bout making it good!?
And before you say something read this:
Nova Knife wrote:The downside to devoting this much to melee however, is that you lose all your high slots for the damage modifier, plus your lowslots as you need to use CPU enhancers to make the damage modifiers fit. Essentially - You become a glass soldier with a totally awesome knife.
Does it sound right to you that to have melee as good as in any other FPS you must make yourself a "glass soldier".
Lore can't matter more then anything, more then gameplay, not in a video game! |

But this is what CCP wants, this is how they intended things for us.
To have a decent melee, as decent as in other FPS, you HAVE to sacrifice the rest and transform yourself into a "glass melee soldier"...all in a game based on range combat and on GUNS 
The only obstacle to a good melee is CCP obsession with RPG skills, nothing more.
We could have a FUNCTIONAL melee as functional and well thought as in may shooters but NO: the melee must be poor because RPG elements can't be changed/removed...even if they lessen the gameplay. |

Read this.
It will show you my opinion and that I am not suggesting an unbalanced OHK melee without a trade-off! |
