Tactics Third Tactic - The Art of Melee.

[slavek]

Some prefer to spray and pray with their PPsh, some prefer to cower and snipe, and some prefer to run up and get things done the efficient way, making sure that enemy is really dead. Which one are you? :IS2:

As of this post, no melee is implemented in RO2(Ramm said so). What do you think would be good additions to RO2 melee? If it is going to be the same as RO1, what are your techniques for melee? Are you the brutal beserker who brutally stabs people and clubs enemies to death, are you a quiet ninja, lurking in the shadows for the opportunity to poke a sniper, or a balance of both? Discuss.

I used to use my mosin-nagant m1891/30 combat lance for shooting every now and then, but now my shooting skills have grown, the amount of time I spend stabbing people has gone down. Still try for silly massive charges though :troll:

Bayonet after the first hipshot - no re-bolting until the immediate area is cleared - or I happen to meet a 71 round PPSh drum.

Take cover and shoot. I'm a realist, meaning I like to take time and do things the good ol' fashion way. Move up in a squad, get a good firing position and start pumping bullets out.
Your fancy ninja and cod skills will get you no where.

Take cover and shoot does not always work in ww2 and you'll need to charge!
Well, thats what they did time to time(Kinda often actually if I remember right).

But I really like good firefights but if we need to charge to get that objective I will.

When it's something like Danzig, which I just can't take seriously, I stab the entire round. I would like some more advanced melee mechanics in HoS, and a difficult-to-time parrying action would be feasible...

Finally a new thread of tactics without someone referring to machoman's thread! (don't troll me for saying machoman please or I will :IS2: you)

bayonet first, if you die because of a bullet its because the other side lacks honour.

I prefer to rush around the flank and spray all the snipers who are hiding upstairs. Works like a charm on Danzig!

See, this is what Danzig does to people.

I'm the Danzig Alley Slasher, no sniper/SMG/MG/or camper is safe. :troll:

This is why I can't wait for RS. I've gotten so few Bayonet kills in Ost, and who knows how many times I've tried.

PS: They Better have melee in HoS, so what is this I am hearing that says they may not?

Ah my friend, the other side has little honor. That's why RS will be epic.

Japanese Officers better have katana in RS.

 

[BlackLabel]

I whould like to see some "Zeno Clash" esque melee combat mechanics implented...

I see your machoman video and raise you this:

Pfff, not impressed. That should be the norm when using the model. 1891 combat lance.

If Alexander would have had 1891's he would have dropped those short punny phalanx pikes right away.
