A stupid idea. Soldiers have access to knives, it is unrealistic to remove it.

Simply removing it because 'people aren't using it as a last resort' is idiotic.

To be honest, if the AK bayonet and sheath can be used to cut electrical wires IRL, it should be able to, after a few goes, remove the wire, but the tank traps stay up.

Aren't all conventional factions getting bayonets?

But really, don't remove one hit knifing. It's realistic etc.

learn to read m8.
"under the knife" not "getting the knife"

also it aint possible to remove the wire with a knife. the engine supports pco's but not deployable ones and definitely not dependent on the weapon.

knifing is overrated

Dont know how many times I shot people because they tried to knife me in the back...
But knifing is cool fun when both fail with their first weapon and dont try to reload but take out the knife... really good fun, that should definatly stay like it is!

Under the knife? That expression is generally attached to something being dropped or removed, if he didn't mean that, what DID he mean? Its being revamped with cool street fighter combo attacks?

Is it not possible to add the option for right click, to make the weapon act like a wrench, to slowly remove the wire? Obviously it would take some time to work.

most bayonets have a wire cutting capabilities these days, and the thing with most tank traps, like the ones in PR is that unless you have time the "hedgehogs" are not usually dug in, and can be moved aside by manhandling them. any way that's how Australian assault pioneers usually operate. most of the time you don't want to have completely permanent field obstacles, because you might need to go through them too.

cant wait to see what you have in stall for us chuc...........

Last night someone tried to knife me. I heard him, turn around and saw him over me stabbing one after another and put reflex fire instantly

Conclusion: we both end dead!
Eventuality: PR kills the showman

No mate, 'under the knife' is widely accepted as meaning 'undergoing changes/revisions'.

'Getting the knife/axe/chop' means to get rid of.

No mate, here it isn't, well at least every time I've heard it it has been in the sense of being removed. Obviously he was using it in a different context.

Don't really see what revisions/changes can be made to it other than maybe animations, or removing it entirely.

Clearly another victory for cultural-langual differences then! =D

Revisions could be adding the ability to parry, and swing, and stab, and jab, and over-head swipe! Oh oh oh and DUAL KNIFING!

Fuck where did I put my ritalin?
