Trouble in Terrorist Town: is the Knife Cheap?

[Marcem]

The knife has bugged me for a while now.  It's the cheapest weapon in the game.  You stab someone and then they're dead, no scream, 100 health every time.  In my opinion, that's crazy cheap.  I think it should be something like 80 health or the person does scream.  The only balancing factors in right now is that you can DNA scan it, but no one ever does, and that it sticks in the body.  Anyone else think it's extremely cheap?

I don't because it's a silent kill, and because if there's anyone around with the brains to shoot will kill the knifer, but people are paranoid as stuff

I look at it this way, 1 knife 1 guarnteed kill.

Then he has to solo it with guns.

Yet you dont complain about the silenced pistol, no scream, no loud  noise, cant see bullet in air. Over all it is more overpowered than knife, but the knife is good for taking out single targets, like detectives, without anyone knowing, if you used a silenced pistol he could live to say it was you, knife=death for him.

But that has spread.

I've never been killed by it but it sounds fair.

On the TTT server i play, Me and an admin always knife eachother when the other is traitor. He was on a roof, and i just walked and tossed a knife up, and hit up. Without aiming.

Wait it's a throwing knife?

Both, you can melee with it and throw it.

[WOLFPACK2]

it should be:

Chest-Head: insta-kill

Arms-Legs: 50 damage

No wonder that I died randomly :O

[Block Box]

I always get killed by a shotgun.

[Chocolatemonster]

It seems that whenever your innocent, you don't get Rdmd, But when you're Traitor, you always get rdmd. :c

[Kalphiter]

I can't tell whether you're talking about Blockland or real life.

I hate the damn thing, to the point where I never buy it as traitor anymore. For the traitor it's an easy guaranteed kill; for the sap on the receiving end, it's a cheap death that you can do nearly nothing against aside from never going in enclosed areas and sticking with groups (which is boring as hell). To counteract this, I always pick up a DNA scanner if I find one so I can easily murder the oblivious traitors.

I hate it, but I don't know what else you could do with it honestly. Cheap yes, but only for one kill, which is a serious drawback. The only real problem is it's infuriating to get killed by, and I have no idea how you could fix that.
