"Ah, I love the smell of melting plastic in the morning" should be the tagline.

I just had an idea on how to improve the Combat Knife, because it seems to outclass all of the other melee options right now.
Problem 1: No visual cue of charged knife
Solution: Make the knife have smoke coming off it/glow if it's charged.

Problem 2: Too much damage to a small downside
Solution: The charge attack always instakills, so it could slow you down if it's charged. For those who won't like this, make it optional?

the combat knife and the chainsaw are pretty distinctly tier 2 so i wanted to make it very easy for a combat knife to kill someone, assuming they got the initiative, regardless of from the front or the back

(but i'm willing to make another kind of knife for tier 1)

what

it bounces

you bounce when you're charged

i mean, i like the glow idea, but it bounces when you charge up how aren't you noticing that

[FrogFreak]

Could you kinda slip in a spear charge but sped up? I don't really think doing the classic spear charge is good enough, but, if possible, could you make the knife go into "backstab" mode?

I'd gander that that probably isn't possible... But, it's an idea.

If someone is walking around with it fully charged, there is no sign of it. That is what I was talking about.

[Jaxx]

just a minor annoyance, when firing any of the raycast snipers, the bolt animation doesn't line up with how long it takes to actually fire the weapon in between shots, so you probably want to extend the animation so people aren't clicking before they can actually fire.

i agree with this
for that matter, you shouldn't be able to run around with it charged for forever

Which is why I asked for the slowdown

Is the Download all button the most recent version?

I agree with this. A raised knife should be a good signal of it being charged.
It would also give a visual reason (what word am i looking for fff) for the extra damage. You know, with the extra room and force when they swing and whatnot..

Good luck with that one, usually it's not the most recent version even when it was updated after the big bugfix the last time ^^; I don't know for sure, but it'd probably be smarter to just do it part by part.
