    Who says an expansion pack cannot come out? Why are people so low on options when it comes to practical suggestions but when it comes to fast-rope people have nothing but endless approval for what is a niche application.

    Apparently Resistance added no end of improvements to OFP, why can an expansion for Arma2 not be an option?

    I couldnt agree more. I mean i my opinion fastroping is the useless thing in a game like arma 2. So why do people get all snappy when it comes to bayonets?

    Who are you to tell us that bis will not implement it? I mean you seem to do everything in your power to stop it dont ya? Well i hope you get shot by the AI uncountable times when you run out of ammo !! and then you go crying home to mamma begging here to make bis implement a virtual knife!

    in *other* games online ive been stabbed from over 5 yards away. Or, shot the guy once, just wounded him, get stabbed before next bullet leaves the gun. I don't think in reality that the army teach you to just *stab* with a knife. there has to be some kind of grapple. i can see bayonets possibly working, as long as the stabber is gets locked in a long enough stab animation.

    They dont teach soldiers how to stab? Ever heard of eskrima knife fighting? Extremly effective even the navy seals train in eskrima.

    Thats crap. You give a select few stories that are so far and few in between they actually become well know stories; then use that as proof that it is a useful tool in arma 2. Your logic is utterly flawed. Movement is not as smooth or quick as real life. Situational awareness is severely decreased in arma 2. I didn't say any marine did anything wrong in the battlefield. I said you did something wrong while playing a game, which has massive limitations and exploits. If you are working together as a team there will never be a time you need that knife. Not ever. The engagements are far too short in time span for your entire fire team to run out of ammunition during a situation that more cannot be brought in. And as a final note. I don't care how long you have spent grappling; a gun kills quicker. If your rifle happens to be unraised, then you have already made a mistake, but beyond that taking a step back and firing into center of mass is much faster than any move. Ask an Israeli soldier how he deals with an armed combatant within reach distance. The answer is to shoot him. Same goes for the spetsnaz. In case you didn't know. Those two military forces are quite famous for their very effective hand to hand combat styles. Even they know virtually all scenarios require the use of the gun. To put a final nail in the coffin that is your argument. If for some reason your gun was blocked from being raised, and you don't have a secondary, and your teammate isn't next to you, your response would be a grab or trip. As a grappler this should be obvious to you. The answer is not a knife, which is what this discussion is all about. And that's real life, not just inagme.

    Ask an Israeli soldier how he deals with an armed combatant within reach distance? The awnser is shoot him? WRONG you cannot shoot an unarmed person! I know exaclty what the israeli soldier would use . KRAV MAGA!

    No not really. Like i said i was firing at a couple of enemys behind cover of a house leaning to the right when an enemy rifleman had flanked me from the left. i saw him and he had his back towards me. I wanted to reload but the ammo indicator showed 0/3 and was red . So for some reason ( i think it was a bug) i couldt reload. Then he turned around and shot me. Man he was so close i could smell him . If i had a knife or a baynet i could have taken him easily.

    Thats not really true. When in a target rich invirement you can run out of ammo . And reloading takes longer then to stab with a knife. Really i wouldnt ask for it if i really never had situations where they came in handy! And if there is someone that plays tacticall i,m it ! I allways conserve ammo and use semi as much as possible not to run out of ammo.

    What is the most amazing about this whole knife/bayonet thing is that if you would add it you would have more options! Seems that people just dont want to see the benefit of this . Or they simply like another " option "

    I voted yes. I had 2 encounters where i did not have a sidearm and ran out of ammo and was killed because i did not have a knife. both of them were in urban combat. Must have and the only thing missing in arma 2 at the moment.

    I will support this because i had this situation

    i have allready came in a couple of situations where i really needed one and died because i didnt have one. Sure never in the open field but in urban combat i sure could need one. I was in twice such situation in the same single player mission. I think it was trail by fire where i think bacause of a bug my m249 refused to reload and an Ai guy was coming around the corner i was taking cover behind . his back faced me but he turned around and shot me. Really if i had a knife i had time enough to take it from my gear and stab him. It really felt like a shortcoming. Not that arma2 has many but it felt this way non the less. The second time was when i ran out of ammo in the same mission not far from where the other incident happend. So how about it Bis? Would a knife be possible in a future patch? Cant we have some petition for the implementation of a knife or bayonet?

    I was wondering if its possible to add a knife or a bayonet in upcoming patches? I remember in ofp and arma 2 there were some addons from bis when a new patch came out. Now why not add a knife or bayonet for us to put in our gear ? I mean i know people say it woulndt work or its unrealistc to have a knife or bayonet in the game but i have allready came in a couple of situations where i really needed one and died because i didnt have one. Sure never in the open field but in urban combat i sure could need one. I was in twice such situation in the same single player mission. I think it was trail by fire where i think bacause of a bug my m249 refused to reload and an Ai guy was coming around the corner i was taking cover behind . his back faced me but he turned around and shot me.
