The person I was hitting was walking backwards whereas I was walking towards him.
What is this?!
There are bugs a plenty with them
I hit a logi trying to rez his squadmate with four solid charged hits to no avail. He eventually rez'd his teammate and they killed me even tho i still hit them a couple more times with zero damage quick slashes.
Also, you'll notice if you spam the quick slice attack it will eventually stop slashing and just make the noise. not good. A way around it is to mix a melee attack in there.
And off topic- the crazy narrow FOV isn't helping anything. |

undeadsoldier90 wrote:It has less to do with lag and more with range. Knives have a 2 meter range. The animation extends your reach a bit more than it should. So lets say with the animation you get 2.5 meters, the game does not register the dmg since you were outside of the 2 meters. This with hit detection makes knives hard to use.
I have confirmed this with a few other knifers, and it seems the most logical way to explain this simply because if it was lag you would blue shield more.
nah. I was point blank hitting the guy, adjusting around each time. Sometimes either hits do not register, or a sound plays and nothing happens. And sometimes, you get nothing at all. The worst is when you think you have a hit charged up and you release AND.... fizzle. Same for melee attacks as far as lagging out.
It's pretty irritating.
Probably the thing that gets me the worst is when i am hiding near a corner about to pounce on someone WHEN... I get stuck ot the wall and can't move until I jump, lose my charge, and ow it's a **** show slash match until I get him or I die. It can be very difficult to use stealth tactics when you stick to what you are hiding behind and you knife doesn't work right. most kills are a legitimate surprise. |

The knives are better then they were in Chromosome, though, they still suck for different reasons. they need either a lunge atk or a hard lock on nuff said, u cant even get a clean kill 90% of the time because the enemy decides to move 1cm to the left or right making it miss altogether, sure the instant atks are great but there no point if ppl back peddle away from u while shooting u in the face :/ and scout suit are suppose to be fast (my ass)
Sprint charging would solve that. I mean give us a break. We are fighting people with shotguns :D |

I find that strafe jumping past them and slashing where i think they will be works really good. but every time i am in a chase the controls are just so clumsy it is impossible to try it on the run. I keep trying tho because it seems like with the right timing it could work.
I've only started taking nova knifing so seriously. But in the last 3 days I've netted about 40 kills.
It would be cool to see knife kills tracked. And to be able to take trophies. sigh. |
