I'd like to see things like nova greatswords or hammers. I have the image of people running around with high tech suits and going medieval on everyone, get war back to the good ol' days when you had to stare your enemy in the face before separating it from the rest of his body :) wow that sounded really violent..oh well MAKE IT HAPPEN! |

I've made my gaming career on pulling stupid wacky stunts, problem is this game doesn't really offer much in the way of the specializing in silliness or any options to go rambo, which is great because of the sense of realism and emphasis on team play instead of lone wolf, but if I can just to run up on an LAV and swat it across the map or cut a tank in half I would just do it for poops and giggles :) |

If you can cut my HAV in half with a 5,000 isk melee weapon then my 80,000+ isk 80GJ blasters better make localized nuclear explosions where they hit.
Which is to say: NO. |

well obviously a giant plasma hammer might cost a bit more than a teeny knife. But hey what's the difference between a cheap melee weapon and a cheap AV grenade? They can both destroy an LAV just fine, and if you can get close enough to punch one of em I say that could deserve a kill in a couple hits :) Different weapons for different races is a great idea, I have a feeling it's going to head that way eventually, once they start adding more to the game. |

The Amarr look like the sort to have a sword forged in the name of God and used to deal with unbelievers... or so I think. |

hmmm...maybe instead of a weapon, have them be pieces of equipment? Just have them augment your melee attacks? |

Skip to 00:16 (or just watch it, I mean, it's only 16 seconds)

What I would like to see is not only varied graphics, but rather widely varied effects.
Imagine Nova Knifes being what they are now; hard-hitting melee you need to charge up. Now, imagine there are other racial versions that did things like
-Stun the enemy, forcing it to "crouch" for 1.5 seconds. Low damage, no charge. (stab, shoot)
-Disarm the enemy, 5 sec duration, charge, medium damage (stab, melee, melee)
-Knockback enemy 3-10 meters. Longer charge increases duration towards the 10m cap. Low shield dmg, high armor dmg.
-Flux aoe melee. High shield dmg. 1-3 sec charge, where each second of charge increases flux aoe by 3m. (stab, grenade)
I'd also be all for making the melee button "hold" the enemy if you hold the button down instead of tapping it, disarming both of you but letting you drag your opponent at a slow pace, dealing no shield dmg but medium armor dmg over the duration of the struggle. Ends if stamina runs low, drains stamina over its duration. Mainly used to drag enemies out of position to finish them off with assistance of your team-mates, or to use the enemy as a shield while advancing.
Stuff like that. |

I'd really love to see some swords. Especially with the Japanese theme of the Caldari. My only concern is if you start adding in full blown melee weapons that nova knives would be kind of shoved aside / made useless.
But I suppose if you made swords a light weapon instead of a sidearm it could work out.
Overall I would say this idea is one of those "probably never, but certainly not anytime soon" kind of things. |

Oh of course, would take some work but the idea is there, not expecting too much craziness to happen anytime soon. 1 step at a time CCP, first get the mechs out and then fix the revive tool to work where their body is and not where they died. And felix what you're describing is basically the CQC that was in metal gear, that kind of stuff would be fantastic but i feel that it would be better for 3rd person shooters (which are way better than FPS anyway, HINT HINT CCP!!!) |

There working on all faction's Nova Knives but no swords or great swords why use these when we have guns, instillations, fighters, etc... etc... would be pointless to bring a sword to a futuristic space war. |

I hear the argument all the time of "why work on something like martial arts when guns exist?" Well guns are fine when a person is down a hallway but there's no substitute for hand to hand combat when you're right next to each other and it couldn't hurt to have more options than stabby stabby poke poke.
And yes there are things like vehicles and installations but so what? Doesn't mean melee is useless, a friend of mine has punched someone out of a dropship already, why not have the option to jump down on him and cut right through it? I would always run with more powerful melee skills if I could but nothing is available because it's disregarded and I also run logistics so there's no room for another weapon lol. |
