Is it sitting in the water or half way up a ladder?

Actually, since his promotion in the 3rd, he just orders someone to stand over him all day.

Dont know iif anyone else share my point of view on this one, but;

When drawn upon, i try to always draw back, code of honour and all that..

Deviations from above can be;

-when alone taking back flag/important flag = eat my lead
-when covering sqmates six = eat more lead
-when doing a important (or other) order = ...yup...eat my lead

I feel like the most annoying and newbie taccs (but its a darn smart one tho) is to draw the blade to get the knifers attention, just to switch back when he thinks he got his fight. I never get annoyed at those who blast me when im trying to snag their tags, but if the blade is drawn it should not be holstered again unless a)it tasted blood or b)u die

Pardon my english.

Meh. Where I play, there's server no rules about knifing, but since most knifers I see also hop like bunnies, which IS against the server rules, that code is really thin. I fill em full of lead without a second thought.

I'd just like to point out that Humiliation is VERY tactical. After all, if some dude gets ganked a couple times by the same guy, he's gonna get pissed off, right? And when you're mad, you generally don't think straight. This usually leads to the other dude saying "I'm gonna get that (expletives) if it's the last thing I do!"

Thus, you have effectively eleminated his tactical presence on the battlefield as he will be focused on hunting you down. Now yes, he'll probably fight the rest of your team still, he won't ignore them, but if you can manage some sort of 'baiting' system, you know, find him, let him see you, run around a corner, you can aggravate him and get your teammates a bunch of easy kills!

And why not a Pilium to the face? Takes slightly more skill, sort of, and is more humiliating in my opinion. Headshot with an H-AVR! YAYS!

Humiliation is a very good tactic. This goes for more than knifing. I've gotten entire squads to come looking for me, and I've spent entire games just running around the map while an entire squad is hunting me down, taking potshots at them, playing a cat and mouse game. The ratio is impressive;

Me running away from an entire squad the whole game;
1 guy out of the bigger tactical picture

Entire squad hunting me down with armor, snipers, and everything else;
5-6 guys out of the bigger tactical picture

Plus it makes you feel good to be cared about so much..heh.

I wasn't very good either at the beginning with the pistol. It takes a little practice. Just try to stay calm and aim for the guy's head/neck area. I usually do triple-tap or double-tap. With luck, you can ground two knifers with one clip.

Never pull your knife near your victim. That metal scratch sound is very distinct (like that of the M1 Garand clip being reloaded). And if you miss, the guy probably has enough bullets left to turn your head into pulp.

Running with the Krylov as PAC has gotten my pistol skills up a bit too. I'm used to the Voss' 40 round clip, so that drop to 30 is a bit surprising. Many a time I've engaged people I could have sworn I could take with my mag percentage, but had to resort to a pistol to finish them off.

Don't stop moving, the pistol's lateral deviation is smaller than the ARs. Circle-strafe and fire.

Shoot them in the face and teabag them for being stupid enough to use a knife against your gun, problem solved.

If you're still having problems, play support with a shotgun and an IDS-1.

• Very professional, reminds me of the cut-scenes in MGS2 when you see the mercenary bad-guys (for lack of a better term) taking over loads of dif. places, like on the tanker, especially when you first arrive on it, ah memories, I'm in the mood to complete MGS2 now, it's been a while.

In this situation there really is no real reason for everyone to face the same direction. You should pick a point depending on where you are located in relation to everyone else and spot dangers before they start raining lead and explosive death on your squad. If that means walking backwards or glancing back frequently while you have the rear position then that's what you do because its at least more productive than staring at the back of the point's helmet.

I do regularly check my six when in a squad, even running backwards for extensive periods of time, especially when in that line fomration and if I know I'm at the back, I did this frequently when playing with some TGers a couple of nights ago, especially on Belgrade when we were frequently on the move. And yes, in a sqaud you are almost invincible to knifers and RDXing bunnyhoppers.

If you have someone watching your six, you should be fine, but when in an intense firefight the other night (the same I just mentioned) on Cerbere landing, we were defending the hills leading to church, and the Pulse Meter just kept revealing enemies, I would juts go a long way round and knife 2 or 3 of the proned rocket whores/snipers, and then get killed. I could have got much more with a recon kit and camo, but I knew that wouldn't be helping my squad.

Indeed, I've gone into this fit of rage, and mostly got my revenge, for the ones I couldn't get before they left, I simply buddied them and went after them another time. But yes, I've knifed a few people several times in a round, and they do get very frustrated, sprinting in the open with a knife, where I shoot them and then...

Say all:HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They just swear loads and if they don't get kicked for it I keep frustrating them.

Wow, it's been a while since I've played COD2. Yes, I usually draw my knife either very much in advance (in those screenshots I posted, my knife was drawn as soon as I saw the APMS next to the ladder, on the lower levels) or if I'm surprised to find someone proning and not facing me, and I'm too close to take out my knife without being heard, I take it out as soon as I'm right nest to the soldier in knifing position, I switch to knife and immediately attack

I'll bare these tips and mind, and thanks for them.

And just repeating what I said earlier, just do whatever you want to do, I personally draw my knife, and Concr3te got annoyed when we were on a dif. server and when someone pulled a knife on me I didn't just get shoot them. But I don't draw my knife because it's honourable, just because it's more fun, the tension as you spot each other and then sprint in for the kill, is much more of a challenge, and much more exciting, then just nailing them with the Baur. Whatever you do, you shouldn't feel forced into doing it, if you want to shoot them, just shoot them, it's got nothing to to do with honour.
