Has anyone ever shot with there M79 or Barret, missed and reached for there knife.
But, for some reason the Q key doesn't work and you manage to throw your weapon at someone.
Man i hate it.

that happens when u dont let ur lil soldier finish changing weapon, or u just imagine a knife instead of a m79 :P it would be nice if the weapon throw would hurt, but less than knife of course

I do that pretty much all the time. Actually, I should say that I did that all the time. Changing the switch button to mousewheel scroll fixed it.

Thats i really good idea, if you keep rolling the mouse reel to much, by accident, does it keep changing?

Not really, cos the switch takes too long.

It's all about training ;) Happens to me sometimes as well, but if you really concentrate on training it, you'll soon manage to time it perfectly I'm sure.

it's mostly because your rushing, i've noticed when Im in a heated battle, it happens a lot, but if im playing against some n00bs, then i pretty much only throw the knife at them

I think I involuntarily memorized the animation's time length; I almost never do that :-P

it can be done in a split second. like keron, somehow my subconcious knows how long it takes to change. but if im rushing i'll still mess it up :l

It's just training... I have become quite good at it over time. I always mess up in BT though.. ^^ The timing is just wrong.

Whats BT?

This happens to me to occasionally but what pisses me off more is when your guns jamed up and gotta throw it.

You know what bugs me...When I throw my law/chainsaw/socom when i thought it was a knife.

Hell what bugs me even more is that my keyboard sucks so much when i try to hold down "crouch" a few moments later while still holding the crouch button. my character automatically gets back up due to my keyboard crappiness. Which means it makes it very difficult to fire my law. Just standing threre like an idiot with the law in my hand holding fire, wondering what the hell is wrong.

that's one of the most annoying things that can happen while playing Soldat

This happens to me now and then, when I run out of Deagle ammo and am frantically trying to get the knife thrown before somebody autosprays me to death... and it's VERY annoying.

Never happens to me much, since I usually switch to my LAW as soon as I spawn, so it's ready to fire. Even before I used to use the Ak-74+LAW combo and used Desert Eagles+Knife, I rarely had this happen to me.

I Use the socom when im not using an automatic gun. Its pretty deadly the socom, and with the added damage of your primary it should kill your enemies if you actually hit them. The knife i think is more useful when your enemies is reloading, because if you kill him with the knife yousave ammo.

Yeah, knife is my favourite, gives me a tad of range when my barrets getting it next bullet ready.

Just tap the grenade throw button (Don't hold it down long enough to throw a grenade). Works even if you're not holding a grenade.
