Melee Weapons Damage and mechanics

[Wili 156]

Some ideas for melee (all damage is referring to PvP damage, not against zombies):

 

- You should be able to swing your melee weapon while sprinting, maybe giving 50% less damage while sprinting. Right now is almost impossible to hit anybody who is running from you, even if he's slower than you (wearing a firearm for example)

- All melee weapons should be buffed by 50% at least, melee fights are going forever, a melee player would have almost no possibility against player with guns, because you will need to hit him like 10 times while dodging bullets.

- Attack button should raise your melee weapon like when using guns. (SOLVED)

-Maybe injured players should run slower?

Yes this is brilliant idea.. The power of melee weapons is ridiculous in this game! It took me 12 hits with a fire axe to kill a bandit ! he was try to kill me with a sporter.22 so he was always going to lose but it was ridiculous!

Anybody knows if the melee damage has been buffed? I didn't test it lately.

Seems like. At least the axes deal quite some damage now.

Hahaa Hillarious that Poor Bandit Wish I Could See that xD

Sporter .22 is a Step Down From the Fist We Were Born With Easily Worst Weapon in Game for me

(Sorry to fans of the .22 Sporter if that offends, it i just meant personaly is my least favored weapon)

Nice to hear that!, I hope it does quite damage to players also, the last time I tested it It was fine against zombies but really weak against players.

You have to actually have a bit of skill with your melee weapons now, 1 axe blow the head = insta kill.

Keep believing that. In fact the bow deals more damage than the fireaxe (which is quite deadly if aimed right) and the Sporter .22 is like a more accurate, fast firing bow. With all three weapons you better aim for the head (which results in a oneshot kill).

Maybe Bow is Worse true Though Not Realy Seen anyone with a Bow

i know ive shot more than a few zombies in the head with a sporter and it only makes them angry

Given worse than fist was an exageration

But still i think being seen with no gun more likely to survive encounter with other players than trying defend self with a sporter :/

Seems like it just makes you have a gun to be kos for from distance than is very useful to me at least

Amphibia and Sporter are decent for combat practice tho ^_^

If a .22 purist tho go for it :) everyone has their own favorites but personaly for me i dont favor .22 weapons
