This is no different than COD's melee attack. You can expend your entire magazine into someone running at you and all they have to do is kick you once and your dead? That is the stupidest thing I have ever seen and continue to see. Do something about it. XBOX MAVRICK
I don't think just saying "Do something about it" will help much. However, I agree that it's a little annoying when someone just randomly kicks while moving pretty fast for a 1 shot. Personally, I think the damage a kick should do be 100, since pilots have 200 health. That way, they can't just 1-shot you unless you're already hurt, but it can still 1-shot some minions. Plus, it would make it all the more vital to get those snapped necks. It honestly wouldn't even bother me if they didn't include a different animation for backstabs. Why even include it if it's a slower animation than kicking?
Yeah, this has been lamented/debated here since the game first dropped. It's ridiculous. I know the game isn't supposed to be uber-realistic, but christ. Think of all the money we could cut from our defense budget if we just stopped buying ammunition and taught all our soldiers how to power kick...
i think they should double the power and area of the kick, and make it an equippable thing.. melee class with a combat knife, Lugz, and brass knuckles.
This came from COD 1....The very old PC COD back in the early 2000s. The melee attack was a bash of the butt of your gun, however, you could not sprint in that game and could not move very fast. If you were close enough to someone to bash them, you were a boss. Anyway, I agree this needs to be fixed! I get kicked constantly by someone sprinting around the room!
I've got a clip of me kicking some camping dude, sound effect blood splatter and him turning around very pissed off and shooting me
