Knife and Chainsaw are the only close combat weapons, and fists.
I really think close combat needs more advancement.

The close combat is important to the gameplay.
Please don't underestimate my Topics, they are for good causes only.

What do you guys think ?

Post all your suggestions for close combat advancement, please.
And please don't post arguments about how this would suck, cause it won't.

99% of the time chainsawing or stabbing don't work (outside public servers), so I really don't see the point.

Eh, I think if people have suggestions, they'll start a topic themselves. ;)
Also I think close combat is good the way it is. It's a shooter game after all. And the punch-with-your-gun when you're close to the enemy is enough improvement in my oppinion.

Chainsaw = must be made easier/more powerful. Longer reach, faster firing rate, and possibly a "No noise" upgrade. Seriously. You are at Ark's RS Knife and Saw. You hear someone's jet, you hide behind something. They come by, you switch to your saw and *shwing* you are dead. When the chainsaw is equipped, a HUGE engine sound is heard, basically sending a message to everyone "Hey I'm using the worst weapon in the game, kill me please!"

You're complaining about the range? I take it you never used it in 1.2.1 where the players had to be overlapping one another for it to kill.

Chainsaw has improved yes, but it still needs more range.

Comparing the stock-market crash of today to the great depression really doesn't help your argument.

Similarly, comparing something bad to something worse doesn't help your argument.

I was thinking, implement a katana in the Secondary menu...
Katana would give good advancement to the close combat.

This katana would work like knife, only it would be longer.
When you click fire, the sword would swing outwards at where the cursor is.

When you click it would swing outwards, but you'd have to aim while holding the button down.
So say, it would swing the direction you move your cursor while holding the button down.

Or stab if you double click, when you hit on a stab it would slice through and get stuck.
But you can still yank it out of the Soldat while it's stuck.

What do you guys think ?

How about a big range of different pistols instead of just the USSCOM? Like, the revolver? (Original Idea from Zegovia)

Desert Eagle(Notice! not Eagles!), silencer-equiped one for those realistic matches, heck, maybe a lazer-equiped one, and any other pistols that could fit into Soldat.

I think we have enough guns as it is.

Chainsaw can already kill without touching, isn't that enough? Also your 'stock market crash' crap is pretty stupid and a pretty bad analogy. Maybe if I had compared the range of the chainsaw to the range of the knife stab it would make some sense.

You can never have enough guns.

I think secondaries should be like knife and chainsaw...
And not guns, cause Primary are all guns.

I use chainsaw as Secondary, and slice people when I got the chance.
If there was a sword, it would add a tad more fun to close combat.

Btw, the chainsaw is alright.

Secondaries are just a weak little renforcement just incase you run outta ammo, it can be a gun if it wants to be. I agree that the sword would be cool, but making every secondary a close-combat weapon isn't a good idea.

no not a goo idea but moree close combat would be nice.

id like a sword in soldat:
-longer than knife
-can stop bullets (press fire before the bullet hits u.
-no throwing

nive idea for sowrd but instead make them crouch to block bullets but after like 5sec or blocking the sword would turn red and it would br dropped

NO MORE WEAPONS

I want ninja stars, and/or a golden gun :p

Katana and Ninja stars would be a nice improvement... xD
Really.

I don't know about the sword being able to protect yourself from bullets though.
Ya, it would be cool, but then it should be for every weapon.

Hit a button to protect yourself with the weapon.
Though if it has too much speed you would lose some HP.

Also I would like to say, in the "Player" on the Soldat menu.
It's possible to choose your Secondary before joining a game.

I would like to have the Primary there as well, what do you think ?
