twisted 127 Posted June 16, 2009 a knife would be interesting in mp for sure - i won't use one but would enjoy shooting all those who bring a knife to a gun fight. a silenced pistol does a better job to a knife as far as silent take-downs, shooting tires (why?). edit - lol looking at that old thread. almost a carbon copy of this one.

maddogx 13 Posted June 16, 2009 Again without proper animations, transitions, AI implementation etc melee combat isnt very useful and nice to look at in Arma2. Totally agree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
max power 21 Posted June 17, 2009 I know a guy who broke both of his hands in close combat and sustained a bayonette wound and is now minus a lung. He seemingly came out on top. He never did say how the fight ended and I didn't ask many questions because I didn't know how he felt about it. The scar was massive. He took quite a stabbing. I think if they want to to close combat in this game it has to be brutal, harsh, and uncertain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goose4291 11 Posted June 17, 2009 Again without proper animations, transitions, AI implementation etc melee combat isnt very useful and nice to look at in Arma2. Surely if P UKF's could do it with the Bayonet waaay back in OFP, it can't be that hard now? I mean, you know the phrase refering to Scientific advancement "Standing on the shoulders of giants"?

wipman 1 Posted June 18, 2009 Hi, instead a combat knife... i think that will be good to have a very basic hand to hand combat, the Marines (at least the 1St Recon) are trained in Win-Tsun by Imin, a Turk from germany, and all the soldiers are trained (in the whole world) in self defense; a very basic attack move that do.. let's say... 0.4 damage x punch? may be good and we'll recover the Attack_Punch from the OFP which saved my life a pair of times in the Resistance campaign. Will be only for realism pourpouses, for simulate that the soldiers are trained in self defense. Let's C ya Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creation 10 Posted June 18, 2009 People have such an opposition to it because 1# AI is a beast and if you get even near them (even if you sneak up behind them) chances are they're going to suddenly spin around without reason and kill you 2# Perhaps they fear people are just going to run around with knives like some call of duty 4/5 wacko The only use i could find for it is PvP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raphier 0 Posted June 18, 2009 A possible scenario. Your point being? Well what's the point of attacking and going into animation-state, when you know that you have only 50/50 chance of winning. Pure luck based, no skills involved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maddogx 13 Posted June 19, 2009 Well what's the point of attacking and going into animation-state, when you know that you have only 50/50 chance of winning. Pure luck based, no skills involved. Why 50/50? Pure luck based? I think I made it clear that the outcome could be determined by more factors than just pure luck. In any case, you're missing the point. My idea was simply an example of how you could make hand to hand combat work in the Arma2 engine while maintaining a level of believability, because close combat simply isn't something the engine does well.

Karls77 10 Posted June 29, 2009 I would love to see the following this is my dream list for mods. IF someone goes out to make Post-Saddam Era stuff, like good old Imuc mod or RHS Export tanks (without all the bugs) was nice but today I think they can get even better so here is my wish list for such an event. Wheeled OT-64C SKOT E-11 Urutu YW531 APC Cascavel III BRDM-2 BRDM-2 Konkurs Tracked Assad Babyl T-72QM1 T-62M T-55QM2 T-55 Enigma T-55AM Saddam 2 (BMP-1 but modified) BMP-2 AA-Units ZSU-23-4M Type 80 (57-2) MT-LB w/ZU-23 ZU-23 Artillery AUF-1 GCT Iraqi Republican Guard (Camouflage) Dot Kaki Drab Lizard Officer Riflemen Grenadier Light Machine Gunner Machine Gunner Riflemen RPG Sniper Medic Engineer AA (SA-7) Riflemen If someone makes mods for Russia I would very much like too see the following units in the future. Tracked T-72B Rogatk T-64BV T-62MIV T-62MD T-55AMD BMP-2 Berezhok BMP-1M AA-Units ZSU-23-4M5 S1 Pantsyr If someone ever makes a Swedish Mod again Please make the Strv-103C a playable tank for West or Resistance. I think this complete my dream list this far but heck North Korea would be cool to see in the future as well if someone bothered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
