Excluding the Melee Attacks

I could see it now, in the middle of a map.
"You have insulted my pride, I challenge you to duel!" Then they would take off their glove and smack each other to death, sounds awesome

And strafing isnt that bad, what do you expect people to just stand there and let you shoot them? I think its easier to get the kill, most of the time they run right into the path of your bullets.

i do that all the time, instead of running back and fourth i just run straight at them firing, lol i always get the kill, well most of the times

how come in SOCOM II when you melee someone (single player) they die?

they should get knocked out, then you should cuff them...

If I were to hit you with a rifle butt, you would either go "ouch" thne shoot me.. or get knocked out... but if he was to hit him lots of times, or REALLLLY hard he would die... but he doesn't seem to put much force behind his swing in SOCOM II...

Well, personally, i think it will take tons of skill to melee people. If you come face to face with them you die, they'll blow you way, and getting behind em can be very tricky. If you have ever played splinter cell online, you'll know what I mean. It would be a great feature and show off some heavy skill in my opinion.

I agree with the person right above me... it would be hard to melee someone and knifing them in the back would be frickin awesome...

And for those of you who think bashing with your gun is stupid, then how about when you bash them it would like knock them down or something istead of killing them... That would be cool, too.

But i really want behind knife attacks to be in the game. (online)

yea I play splinter cell online and I get you and in socm 3 if you are that stealthy then damn

I think you guys are talking about the CS:S source run around with a knife style ****... that is do-able, but quite obselete, as I am pretty sure we will still have unlimited pistol ammo, so we will never need a knife...

If you mean the SOCOM style pressing of X to initiate a rifle blow of knife attack, then no, this is undoable, as people will charge up and press X, and whilst there is little skill involved in pointing a gun and shooting, there is less in pressing X for an auto kill... I don't mind being killed by a sprayer, but one press of a button??? NO

I am very slealthy in Socom. on good days i can get close enough to a guy to finger **** him in the *** before i kill him. guarentees a headshot.

what wonderful word pictures you paint

but yeah, I say no to melee attacks, unless you have to take like a knife as one of your weapons, and you run around slashing, rather than just pressing 'x' when close enough

i sneak up on people all the time in socom 2... freakishly easy if you have your grenades out camped in a bush or something. the best is sneaking up behind someone standing still with a 12 gauge pump and shooting em in the legs to make them fall over and just when they are about to get up shoot em again. in my own opinion melee isn't such a bad idea if it is stealthy and tactical... but that's coming from a guy that preferred throwing knives and getting one hit kills in goldeneye for n64 lol
