Well congratulations here we are in 2025 with reforger and new enfusion engine and cant use a simple combat knife. I dont understand why this continues to be overlooked? Do soldiers go into combat without bullets? Thats essentially what is happening here. Is there no such thing as hand to hand combat in war now? How can arma claim to be a military game or sim for all these years when these are the most basic of soldier’ing? Makes no sense to me. I mean from a developmental aspect its no different than animations when holding a rifle its the same concept.

bayonets on the end of a weapon is a totally different thing to combat knives in terms of usage

All through the arma series we have never had the ability to do stealth take downs. With all the realisim and all the possible weapons combinations we dont have the ability to use a simple combat knife in combat! Its early in development. If this is to be implemented in the game NOW is the time to do it. There was alot of attempts to try this in Arma 3 but the engine did not allow for it. We have a new engine now and its currently being worked on. Now is the time to since its early in development to do this in the Enfusion engine. If we are REALLY going for military realisim then how can this NOT be included. This has bugged me for all the years i have played arma from cold war assult, Arma 2, operation arrowhead, arma 3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_knife edit: I saw a knife mod on youtube. stabbing through a tank or plane and killing it. it was silly. but it did work lol. But i would like to see this capability native in the engine along with the character animations and game mechanics for stealth (quiet) movements and such
