It feels like the knife seems to hardly ever kill or wound anbody anymore. 50% of the time the knife will hit them, I'll see blood, but the person doesnt even look slightly wounded. Whats up with this? Even more than 1.2.1! Am I suddenly lagging worse than ever or is this a bug or something.

Hmm, I don't seem to be feeling any troubles. Seeing as 80% of the secondaries i'm killed from are knives :<.

On a sidenote, I think that the creation of this topic was rather useless.

No, he is right. Its not just the knives, its every weapon. But I do beleive there were several topics asking about hits not registering correctly. Something about the netcode and the lag that came with 1.3.

I've noticed it too. Knife seems to be affected by lag a lot more now.

I haven't noticed any differences with any weapons.. maybe there's just a bit more lag or something.

Yeah it happens too often and then they kill you even though they should be dead.

Im glad you arent getting as many kills with the knife, although it's almost exactly the same compared to last version. Knife users have had it too easy, for too long.

i agree with vendetta, knife is officially the most used secondary and its pretty pathetic :(, i suggest a speed nerf for it and a damage increase to keep its 1 hit kill

Yeah your all right about the knife not killing others, i use the knife as secondary all the time and i usually waste it on people that dont die!
please MM see into this we're not goin to be able to pwn any n00bs without our trusty knifes and nades :/

What about some bink and a start up time? To throw the knife say half of what the law has to fire, it would be the soldat moving their arm back for the throw.

You people enjoy nerfing things which are fine...and what Isnt cheap (like the weapon I call the Railgun)

Then MM will listen to your wishes to nerf the knife then we'll get 500 posts saying WTF YOU F'ed UP OUR NIFE!!11!11!!1111

nah leave it as it is, knife is perfect.
the other secondries should get a little ability like how the knife can be thrown for MAJOR PWNAGE, the suggestion about the chainsaw ricochaying slow bullets and grenades is a good one

vendetta, why not add a startuptime for every weapon then! "BUT THEIR FINGER HAS TO PUSH THE TRIGGER"

Only about half the knife the knives are dull for me. Maybe they nerfed the knife slightly...

I have noticed absolutely nothing different about the knife... as long as I've got a good ping, the knife kills quite dependably, even on long-distance throws.

I love it the way it is and Ive been doin damn good with it for sometime now.
Oh if you do mess with it, Ill cut you and Ill cut you good.

Knife is more powerful now than before. If it hits, it almost always kills. Probably lag that causes them to take no damage.
