to stab or not to stab? : Othor Games

I think the idea of knives will be a bit un balanced. No.1 - They wont be as powerful as guns. Are you going to run up to someone and continuously knife them until they die? No. 2 - What if you have Kevlar armor. I doubt the knife will go through that.

Which may only be 2 or 3 knifes while you are shooting. And doesn't one hit from a gun bash knock you down?

I just noticed that at 0:57 you can see the stabbing action. It appears to be a thrusted stab rather than a swipe or slash.

Melee attacks that unbalance your character and knock him down are cool, especially since you can still shoot while down? That would make for intresting gameplay. You could afford a crapper main weapon if you are counting on unbalancing your opponent first. Sounds fun.

A true master paralyzes his opponent, leaving him vulnerable to attack.
