Many thanks for the congrats folks.

Pie, ya calling me a bampot coz you don't have a thousand tags and can't be in the Colonel's club? :D lol

Haha, I don't think I qualify anyhow. My first reaction is not the knife, its usually more like "Oh **** that's CK" then watch you warp 2 meters and stab me in the face.

:p
 
Just for fun I've recorded some of my amazing stabs.

Using AutoHotKey coupled with the video recording function of MSI Afterburner I have AHK send F9 to start recording and then stop the recording 3 seconds later when I hit the middle mouse button.

Here's a compilation of a few stabs, slowed down a bit and with a stunning audio score, incidentally there's a free stab up for grabs for who gets the name of the Artist first.


Not sure why but either AHK or the modified MSI AB still crashes my system which is typical really. Stupid Punkbuster.
 
I've totally given up on the knife, it fails more times than it kills. Much better to shotgun them in the back of the head :) Maybe i'll compile a video of failknifes.

Nice vid. I'm offended I'm not on there though ;)

WTF!! I noticed the first time you totaly missed him =Death and the second you stabbed the air and you killed him.

Lol here you don't even touch him as it stabs the air in front of the wall, but he dies :D

the knife seems to work on where the person is the second you press it not where they go.

so knifing the place they're moving too = miss even if they run right into the knife,

but knifing where they are, then them running a few feet to the side = kill despite the knife hitting air in it's animation.
 
Yeh ^, Perhaps the animation will be delt with better in BF3 :)

There was a few times in that video though that you slashed, hit his bazooka on the back or actually stabbed the wall and the guy died.
 
I had a couple of corker failstabs in that montage and a few more which I took out. Seemed higher than normal failures when using the script too, which might just because I was desperate to get the stabs before the game crashed or might be just because mucking about with this voodoo stuff shouldn't be encouraged and it serves me right.

I can assure you Neil that most of those stabs were initiated more or less at the right stab point. Remember that the video starts as soon as I hit stab and records the whole animation, regardless of where it ends up.

I knifed a guy through a flight of stairs the other day. At stab initiation he was on the stairs moving up, I was on the floor beside the stairs. Shortly after starting the stab he jumped down off the stairs and through a hole in the wall. The game still decided that I got the stab though. It may be broken and unfair at times but we all have to deal with the same set of rules that govern how the knife works.

They should just get rid of the auto knife in bf3, rather than trying to fix the animation. Needs to go back to being a selectable weapon and having to be next to the person to knife them. Rather than just being able to press a button and lunge forward. Sometimes the distances you can get people from is just ridiculous.

Good point, i've actually seen players being pulled towards my knife or if they are climbing a ladder the player lundges about 10 foot into the air and it's a kill :D
 
The knife failing can be funny sometimes when you're trying to stab a friend who you're on Mumble with and both of you miss a couple of times.
Just don't stab Rifleman though as he'll leave the server.
