I got s cool story for ya, brah!
I ran into a room full of the enemy, about 6 of them, and knifed one +50! and hopped about as they shot at me before jumping back out unscathed. If friendly fire were on, I wonder how many of them would have killed each other :)
You never do the Bossa Nova Knifer dance? The best is when you spin around a heavy and chop him into bits with your IshNoks  |

You HAVE to run towards your enemy sometimes when they've discovered you. It's them or you. If you turn to run, you waste time turning, plus you're enemy has a longer range than you, so good luck getting away. There better be about 5 corners and no open spaces around, or you definitely will be getting shot. Something tells me you made your mind up before reading any of the OP, to suit your own playstyle and keep other playstyles down. You didn't really address any of my points and just blurted out your own opinion.
He can't help it. He got the idea somewhere he had to super tryhard to be cool on here. you know- super emo hipster sputin bout cool stary brahmine! He is never going to have anything useful to say. Don't take it personal. He's just incapable.

I'm not one to share tactics, but I will certain chime in on the issues I think would improve a nova knifing experience.Well, in the hopes to make it more immersive as well. Maken Tosch has a cool diary on here that goes into tactics as well as common issues.
See Here :D
One thing, I really like the knife work move you do when you first pull your knives out. That kind of thing is sweet, and I'd like to see different intimidating knife work flare. I love swiping my knives around when I am fighting another knifer as an intimidation measure
- IMHO, the most needed improvement is hands down a better FOV. As it is now, it is like we have blinders on. There is zero sense of peripheral vision, and it's quite like tunnel vision. It just plain needs to be widened. This improvement alone will improve the aspect of knife fighting. As it is now, it is all too easy to lose track of prey in close proximity resulting in a slash fest in hopes of landing a hit or three. A lot of times I will get a +50 but never actually see the kill on my screen. wut.
- Better cues as to having a charged hit ready to go. With IshNoks the charge up time is so quick who is to say if you are landing a swipe or a charged hit in the heat of a fight? I only know I am landing a charged hit when it's hitting stationary prey. Have a mild vibration humming in the controller when it is charged, change the color of the charge meter to a reddish hue, and play different sound/vibrations to reflect a swipe or a charged swing would all be welcome.
-Sprint Charge AND lunge Swipe. Maken Tosch and I disagree on including a sprint charge. I think in the name of plausibility alone it needs to be included. But mostly, it wouldn't make knives OP to have a sprint charge, it gimps them to not have it. It's tantamount to saying HMGs need a spin up time before their bullets start spraying. A sprint charge would work as you'd think. A lunge charge would be a matter of hitting jump and swipe at the same time in a direction. I think the distinction I am trying to make is a sprint charge is for frontal attacks, or even rear attacks on the run. Or to take out a back pedaler. A lunge charge is quick and does swipe type damage, but it allows you to commit to a forward swipe quickly. Or towards adjacent prey a la strafing. the idea with lunge swiping is to be able to chain attacks against multiple targets with some modicum of aim. It would also cost stamina per jumping.
- If everything else was implemented, then maybe this suggestion would be worthless. or excessive. But I was thinking it would be good to use the ADS button as a trigger to lock onto a target so you face them always but can move in all other manners. strafe, forward backward, jump, etc. You are just locked facing them front and center in your view. Then it would be a matter of juggling swipes/charged hits as you moved around the locked target.
- Perfect hit detection is needed as well. They know it is a problem, and they know it needs to get worked out. I suspect it is a symptom of a larger problem that affects all manner of game play. so we'll have to wait and see on this. It's just obviously coming at some point.
- Diffrent types of hits aside from charged and swiped. The addition of the swipe hit made me go back to knives. It made me go proto. It would be nice to have the ability to do low hits, hit weapons causing them to malfunction, head shots resulting in decapitation, stab moves, etc.
- Not just different racial variants, but also more melee weapons. amarr short swords, minmatar machetes, etc. also, some officer knives plz!
IF all of those made it into the game it would make the knife game so sweet. |
