Competitive Community Melee Patch

[Theodin]

Messing with bayonet range or health creates an unstable environment. As I said previously movement causes ghost range, not the bayonet itself. Obv hitboxes are unstable and armour issues need to be addressed but the bayonet itself is fairly balanced.

1. I don't think pokes are that random and I'm pretty sure some people know how to bait others into poking them.

2. I think stabs are well balanced.

3. 5 stabs yes, but to arms and legs maybe. People should aim for the chest or the head and problem solved.

4. ok.

I think the melee should be sped up because, on NA side at least, the meta is pretty much blocking until you get a blockchamber/blockstun. If the melee was sped up, there would be new ways to play and it'd force defensive players to do more than block. I mean, come on, bayo v bayo is only 2 attack directions.

Or at least improve server/client relationships so stabs don't disappear or some shit.

For the first one, I try to bait people into either glances or pokes and I would say that most of the time, it works.

For the last time, for everyone to hear, there is no such thing as a force glance, there is always a random element

Or swap melee speed from fastest to medium and would never have this problem as us inferior EU players don't have this problem

2. Slightly decreasing downstab's range


nice fucking joke lads

[McPero]

1. Yes poke baiting is a thing but there is still a lot of random pokes.
2. No.
3. With NW hitboxes you never know what you actually hit, I find that most deadly stab is in crutch/legs.

I don't know what are you doing in NA but here melee is mostly range, chambers, block/stunchambers. I don't see FSE actually implanting these changes so you don't have to concern yourselves.

With point 1 I know how to bait someone into poking me of course, but at times the pokes are very inconsistent and just happen when you are neither too close or too far from your opponent, I tend to call these 'soft spots'.
