Malts Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) The recent Spear change to make the instakill move, that oneshots zombies but roots the player, making it not happen when zombies are grouped near you but work at any other time seems to work very well. My suggestion to give the same change to Short Blades that can instakill, instead of its current chasingzombies > 1 = no instakill Edited January 26, 2021 by Malts DXPOHIHIHI 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DXPOHIHIHI Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 This is good, I also suggest that they make the insta kill 100% when a zombie is on the ground when using short blades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malts Posted July 4, 2021 Author Share Posted July 4, 2021 Thought I would bring this up again, now the game is to recieve updates again beside MP. It feels utterly terrible to sneak up on a zombie, and just before you do your backstab, you are suddenly seen by 2+ other zombies and it is simply disabled. Even if they are far away and no danger, and the one you were attacking has no idea you are there. It feels hivemindy and gamey. Hoping short blades can get the same treatment as spears on the insta-kill check instead of this. Or even an option in-game to disable/enable these safety features, enabled by default. Short blades at the moment feel more like a tool than a weapon, because its critical hit is more integral to its use than other weapons, and it gets disabled too easily. Beside the other issues that short blades has: You can backpedal and solo hordes without any skill investment. It feels extremely cheesy, and isn't really a healthy new weapon identity for knives. Short blades should probably get some slowdown on movement when attacking, maybe less than other weapons, but something that atleast requires investing in nimble to do so like other weapon categories require. Maybe it could stun less on hit? Speaking of stun on hit, it also seems really weird that if you do the normal stab attack on a zombie from behind they fly meters away after being hit, whereas a baseball bat hit from behind, if it doesnt knock them down right there, keeps them stationary.

Geras Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 I agree with the last paragraph, the zombie pushback from behind seems like a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
