The kamikaze knife kill

[Oz70NYC]

I can't be the only person who does this. Mostly in DMs, but sometimes in free mode fights where things are in close quarters. I'll run at the person In my sights with my knife drawn, absorbing a sh*t ton of bullets before driving it into their gut, killing them. At high levels (my main is 126) it works best cuz we have higher damage mitigation (meaning we can absorb more damage). Now it doesn't work all the time. And I'm not saying it's a l33t tactic...cuz it's not. But seeing how some people freak out when you're charging at them with a knife is priceless. Just tonight I had this one guy actually try to ROLL away from me after he peppered me with bullets and I didn't go down before getting in killing range. Ended up kicking him out of the roll and stabbing him in the chest while he was on the ground. The moans of disbelief in chat makes it all worth it. Does anyone else do this, or something similar to it?

i dig that you are proposing charging a machine gun armed man with only a blade AND you have a samurai as your av.

[Jolly Swagman]

I do it to tanks.

[G_Masta_Phunk]

-also- i do it.. but with the bat... the bat is my -only- melee weapon until they give me a samurai sword. tho... i love that SMACK noise it makes when i land a hit on them and they go down still shooting their machine gun.

Makes me wonder what having a bayonet attachment would be like in the game? Hmmm.

I've done this, but I've made a living off of this maneuver. Except with the hammer instead, oldboy style. I wish the melee was better however, it needs to be a one hit kill just like the pistol whip/rifle butt.

 

This is why I play TLoU's multiplayer if I want proper stealth mechanics and the usage of a machete. I like killing up close and personal as well as striking first from an ambush position, it's far more satisfying than being a sniper. Killing is no longer intimate as a sniper.

They should put in Samurai sword and the Machete.My choice of melee killing is stealth golf club tho.

[WTFThisIsntWii]

I do it to tanks.

I'm a soldier when faced with a heavily armoured moving vehicle with a mounted turret and high calibre cannon I tend to find that the best defence is to run directly towards it brandishing a knife or any other item of cutlery such as fork or spoon. It also helps if you make loud police siren sounds whilst running and waving your pants above your head. Make sure the rest of your squad drop their weapons and perform a well choreographed dance to a 90's song in the background. Works every time.

 

If I saw a pantless guy running directly at my tank with a spoon making siren sounds followed by the rest of his now unarmed squad doing a obviously rehearsed dance number I'd definitely run.

Do you even know what Kamikaze means

[SoggyLuke]

I just charge at people with a golf club haha, best way to claim a bounty

I'm a big fan of the golf club as well.

Yes indeed, it isn't easy being Australian. Oh wait a minute, yes it is.

[Stephen]

OP do you scream BANZAI ! into the microphone as your charging ? I know the Japanese liked to use it during suicide attacks in WW2.

i read the title and was really hoping this was someone jumping from a plane and knifing an opponent just prior to their splatter on the floor... now that would be the ultimate stealth knife kill, silently dropping from the sky... Knife to the Face,.... doesnt matter that you killed yourself, you are the ultimate stealth warrior

 

alas....

I was hoping for some epic sky stabbing too. My favorite kill was with a knife as well. Died, re spawn 15 feet behind someone scoped in on my friend. I drew my knife and charged. He noticed at the last second and frantically tried quick scoping me with his heavy sniper while back peddling. Stabbed and slashed him a couple times then kicked him to death. Good times.

[GTA Master 007]

How can you get close enough to a person to melee them when they snipe you 2 blocks away?

 

Unless OP is attacking level >10

[TeammateHelper]

I just rush peeps with a baseball bat.

 

The Furies doesn't back down.

[antihero0808]

I like to do this to people hiding on top of buildings.

 

Grab a helicopter and go off radar then parachute down. They think they're untouchable so it really adds insult to injury when they are stealth killed with a melee weapon or your bare hands.

[Gridl0k]

Same here, Off The Radar and the glass bottle is about the only thing that makes FR fun these days...

 

 

Sniping's for amateurs

Dude locks some threads which actually have gtav discussion and then lets mudslinging quote waterfall arguments go on for years. It is an interesting moderation style.

[Valdorien]

I do this but with a baseball bat because it just sends the enemy to the gound after one sprint hit so it's really easy to beat them while they are knocked out on the ground.

This is something i need to try in-game

[manicmechanic71]

There's something so humiliating about being taken down by the bottle, it gets you right here! Lol!

[VersaceVersace]

I do it all the time, I just hate the fact that on top of being able to hit you from a distance

guns also seem to be way faster for melee attacks than anything else, even fists.

[Zondar]

Divine wind? Or words to that effect.

[TankBoom]

i go off radar and take my bat to a war zone. see how many kills i can get in a min.

[JC Hammer]

The only dude that falls for that is the guy half way down the hill in Coveted, everyone else will turn you into an instant grease spot!

[waters]

best to clip them with your car, while they ragdoll about the ground, jump out with knife in hand, shankshank drive off
