TOPIC: [TTT Suggestion] Knife nerf

Clarky wrote: Tf 2 is instakill because of a backstab on ttt it's simply an instant kill. In tf2 you can check your team mates for any potential spies without fear of rdm and the uncloak is loud. On ttt there is nothing you can do until the person pulls out the knife, to which point it's too late

Clarky wrote: No thats the problem with the knife anyone can kill someone with a knife even if he only has 1hp and the other one is full hp

I totally understand the targeting lmao, especially when players bet on other players or themselves and then those are the players that get targeted. I think the knife should only deal a certain amount of damage and only kill wounded or badly hurt players instantly and for killing a healthy person, it would take 2 hits.

Look clarky, I appreciate you for the most part but you have no place arguing in this. You haven't played the server in long time and you have no idea what it's like to get targeted from the pre-round.

Nick0GR wrote: Pretty sure Clarky is saying that if you've got a problem with the knife just change it to the knife from TF2? That's kind of how I read it. He's not comparing games, he's not saying anything about how the game should be played, so you're making yourself look more than stupid for getting irritated over something that you really don't have to get that irritated over.

Also, the knife is a melee weapon. "Never bring a knife to a gunfight" is exactly why it has to be overpowered. I'd still like it if a backstab would be instakill and a regular stab do like 80 or whatever, but as far as I'm concerned it's fine enough as it is.

Raeker wrote: This is what I suggested a while ago. Make the frontstab only do half or 75 damage and the backstab an instakill.

Clarky wrote: I would really love if people that actually play TTT right now would argue about this since we are the people that actually getting focused right now and not people that just look at a pro and con list of the knife. Adding to this I didn't not see a single TTT staff member that did not support this suggestion

This is a good idea tbh makes it fair in both ways.

Clarky and Raeker are supporting it somewhat. Just saying a different way of nerfing the weapon?

Well yes, but it also seems like they wan't it to stay like this until one hitting from the back is added and we all know that that won't happen in one day so until that would happen I would just love to see the old knife and not the current one

A way it could be need is the speed the knife swings at I don't know if it's possible but it will allow players enough time to react if it takes SLIGHTLY longer to pull off a knife attack thus solving there's issue but also allowing the knife to be useful at close range and still allowing the knife to be a valuable piece of equipment to be used by skilled players? Just an option

Tom. wrote: The old knife was never used at all. This is still a better option than what we had.

Tom. wrote: The old knife was awful, you couldn't be stealthy with it because someone had enough time to react to being stabbed once and calling you out + potentially killing you.

Raeker wrote: I am pretty sure most of us playing TTT would rather not have a knife until this is added, than having an overpowered knife.

Tom. wrote:
If it was up to me I would nerf it right now but I would like to talk to Aek until this happens. I ain't slow I am just respectful of what Aek thinks is right in the situation. The old developer has left

DEADMONSTOR wrote: Hopefully if he doesn't pull off a Bezzy, we can discuss this matter this Sunday
