FORUMS_

Player hitboxes are smaller, so you have to knife more on point.

sometime im sure my knife is made of paper because i can be standing right next to them and some how not kill them, but id rather that happen than some of the videos i made from mw3 and mw2 where they seem to run past you and still get you

I think the knifing in the game is a lot better no crazy lunges, a lot of the maps suit a knife only game style that I like to run every now and then.

The combat knife and the ballistic knife are fun to use in the right hands like 'onlyusemeblade' style as Nicedrewishfella said above.

The lunge is crazy. I've had over 300 kills with the knife and I've lunged through shotgun blasts and even clear through people. The hit detection is awful though, I've lost count of the times I've warped straight through stationary people and been shot in the back.

Knifing seems a lot harder in BO2.  On my screen it seems as if I'm knifing an opponent only 1 - 2 feet away.  I miss - my opponent whips out his laptop and watches the entire Dark Knight trilogy, orders a bucket from KFC and finishes it off with a cool six pack before aiming down the sight and filling my fleshy statue with bullets.  All during the time it takes me to recover from my failed knife swipe

The default knife is virtually useless, if you miss you're basically screwed. The combat knife you get is much quicker, but still akward at times.

Yeah, because a knife beats bullets any day...

Let's move out of the middle ages and make the knife more like BF3.

WHY IS BLACK OPS2 A PILE OF DOG **** WASTE OF MONEY IT TAKES FAR TO MUCH TO KILL PEOPLE ON THIS GAME ON MW3 ITS NOT AS HARD TREYARCH SHOULD STOP MAKING CALL OF DUTY GAMES WORLD AT WAR WAS CRAP AND SO WAS THE FIRST BLACK OPS YOUR NOT INFINITY WARD AT LEAST THEY KNOW WHAT THEIR DOING SORT IT OUT AND GET RID OF THE HACKERS TO

It is a bit more difficult but, I think that has to do with the "latency compensation" they have put into place due to connection differences.

I still think knifing needs a nerf.

Launching attacks trough bullets is bit riddicilous.

Look its a game. Make believe. Im a hand-to-hand combat instructor and melee is not a fantasy  and neither is a realistic accelerated jump or lunge. But wow there are sure a lot of complaints about knifers, and maybe its because we actually use our minds and patients and use a tactical advantage to get close enough to slice a throat or belly open and its pretty embarrasing to see your own kidneys up for sale on the black market. BTW, has anyone in here ever shot through a high powered scope? Because this quick-scoping crap is THE most unrealistic junk in the game. I have a Remington .308 with a Burris Eliminator and a S&W 30-.06 with a Swarovski and I promise you, its extremely hard to hit your mark on a time crunch in prone, let alone standing with a 15 lb rifle with extended technical eye relief. So yes they need to fix the knives in this game, they created an entire knife kit for Gods sake and you cant even kill anyone with it! Also, have you noticed that the ballistic knife wont fire while moving? you have to be damned neaar stopped before it will fire. Goin back to MW and praying number 4 arrives soon.

Keep knifing knifers!! And keep rooting those little Girl Scouts out of their tents with their gay quickscoping! BOPS is for campers

The hit box for knifing needs to be increased, and even more so for the assault shield melee attack.  That thing can not afford to miss, but it does all the time.

There hasn't been commando perk for three games now, get over it.  Being knifed is the penalty for letting an enemy get that close to you. 

Now it is so hard to knife someone that when you and an enemy both run out of bullets and start the knife dance, the winner is always the person who realizes, after missing 5 knife attacks in a row, that he actually does have time to reload, because the other guy isn't ever going to land a knife attack on him.  This has happened to me multiple times.

I have the assault shield and combat knife gold, and will get the ballistic knife gold sooner or later.  I can do it, but that doesn't mean it isn't broken.
