I suck at knifing so I using try to shoot guys 2 feet away which in all honesty is my fault. If a guy is close enough to knife you....YOURE CLOSE ENOUGH TO KNIFE HIM. Only time knifing sucks is when you add lag into the equation otherwise have some awareness. The knife in this game isn't MW2 or even BO bad...


Why is it called panic knifing? Isn't it about reacting? Which is what CoD is about...

I've been saying this ever since CoD4; they should have never removed gun melee. The terrible hosting system coupled with the extremely random knife lunges makes for a frustrating experience. Honestly they have so many options to fix such as in the case of Battlefield where only backstabs are one hit and force an animation, knife killing one hit but having to be equipped with the d-pad, knife being completely removed - as in you literally have to next them to get a kill and/or keep lunge but gunfire causes them to flinch and stop the lunge.

Either way I doubt they will ever change it; not only can the devs not even play their own game but their games are marketed to those between the ages of 10-17 who adore all their cheap kills.

I don't think it should be removed, but it should be nerfed... If I'm spraying at someone at close range and have already hit them 3 times, they should never be able to kill me with one knife swipe.

Off topic.. Today I killed 3 people from behind and they all fell for second chance... Just wanted to share cause it was ridiculous...




there's the problem right there , 1 stupid knife swipe , IS NOT suppose to save your ass , 1 hit kill knife is 1 of many reasons why cod fails

Why would you want to remove the knife?
As many times as your saying you get killed by it
I sure you use it just as much. I don't see why people frown upon so called panic knifing. You should praise them for having quicker reactions, as that is what it comes down to.

As for it being overpowered would you rather it underpowered like in BF?
You knife someone and they just stand there :dumb:

If you are a real soldier you could easily kill with one knife swipe, most soldiers would know where the main arteries are and can easily kill you.

Creep-creep!!
The only time i get upset is when a Split-Screen knifes me.
Will they remove the knife? i doubt it, but what Call of Duty should do is make Tactical the default button layout

I dont think they should get rid of it, but ive always felt that they should either get rid of lunge altogether, or speed up the knife animation and make it two hits to kill.

Quit being a pussy just because you get killed by a knife time to time. It's a very legitimate tactic to kill an enemy from blank range. If he can knife you, you could knife him.

Dont bring realism into this. If it were realistic, you would have to equip the knife like in battlefield.

My opinion is that it should either be a gun melee like in halo, where its only a 1 melee kill from behind, or a 1 melee kill equipable weapon like in battlefield.
