"Status: In Progress

Goal: Provide more customization of melee weapons

Update: our plan is to open these up to Player Studio creators in the future. We will have more details as implementation is further along.

We will putting in support to allow you to play with your knife brandished in addition to the existing quick knife.

What types of melee weapons do you want to use?"



Brandished knife.... Running around like a maniac swinging your knife or other future melee weapons!

Give VS a lightsaber, TR a chainsword and NC a giant pick-axe and I'll be happy.

Iv always been a fan of a hook/claw shaped knife. This is the one I got now and works great.

The knife's shape does the work for you in most things and there's almost no risk of having the blade cut deeper than you want when opening things or cutting yourself if it slips. Only downsides is the damn things are hard to sharpen and can't stab well.

Using a hook knife in a fight just fits better in the hand as well if you're like me and prefer holding something backwards (blade to the forearm) like how the quick attack is in game. The shape also gives a little extra reach from the knife tip sticking out and once that gets in something it'll dig in on its own without having you need any extra force.

What would be a cut with a normal knife, is a deep gash with a claw. Why go against nature when the claw shape has worked perfectly for millions of years on every single predator that existed?

Box cutter ... also works as an anti-aircraft weapon ... or so I'm told -_-

I'm going to be incredibly disappointed if the PS1 knives aren't the first to be added.

A full on one hand chainsaw ala Bruce Camble.

I look like your avatar right now. Shame on you sir for miss quoting such a set of movies. It's almost like you forgot your lines.

It isn't a one handed chainsaw, it's a chainsaw hand!
Plus Bruce may have been the actor, but the person you are thinking of was named Ash Williams.

I dont think I misquoted anything. I dont think there was an official name for it in the movies. Maybe i forgot though.

I just remember that he had a socket of sorts on it for his stump and he swung it around like a sword of sorts.
but in PS2 I want something you can hold with hand rather than requiring that you cut your off hand before you can use it.

Shame that was such a mediocre game. The girl had a fantastic design.

Item_id 271, Wakizashi, is new on the weapon list.

"The wakizashi combines speed, a fine cutting edge, and extra reach compared to the default empire knives."

Ooh, some sort of wrench would be great for theme-ing out an engy. ^^

They need to have an assortment of sound effects you can choose from too. "Thud", "Splat", "Slice", "Woosh", "Kabang", etc.

[PredatorFour]

A severed arm would be so cool, or any limb for that matter. That guy who sent you hate tells for killing him ???? Beat him to death with his own bellend!
