Melee and Bayonets!

[Ritsuno]

First off, I gotta say that I really love the Melee in RO2. It's easy to use, accurate, and can be terrifying as it should be.

(Except when you run though people, >.< I'm really hoping for full collisions on Hardcore. )

As a bolt only user, I often times find this as my main form of attack in close quarters, nothing like screaming through a house (C on Barracks or the apartments.) from room to room looking for a head to bash in. Or when you find yourself in that deadly 10~ meter range against an SMG or semi-auto rifle, miss your shot and have no choice but to move or die, if you haven't all ready.

I also like that it seems to be a one hit kill on the head, but still takes multipul hits on extremities.

I finally was able to get in a stat tracking server and I got my Bayonet today. It's exactly what I was hoping for, now when I turn a corner to rush an SMG I don't have to worry about wither one hit is going to take him down or not. (Seems to one hit kill on center mass stabs.)

Melee has become a huge, huge part of my game. As I play extremely aggressively, and now I am confident in my abilities at all ranges.

Everyone seems to enjoy this in game as well. I'm sure many of us have had an "Oh S***!" moment when someone pops around a corner. I hope more people we learn how much of a life saver melee can be, an adopt it to their play.

Bravo TWI you've really hit the nail on the head with this one!

P.S. 300+ points in 2 rounds?? I'm coming for you Ivan!!!! (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

I really do love melee too, but I wish it wasn't so easy to just shoot some one after they just hit you in the stomach with their rifle butt.

would you mind sharing the ip of that server with me?

:3

My server list is working fine now I can see lots of servers.
I think the IP is 127.0.0.1
i'm US East and have 50~ ping

Darn it how are you getting your stats to save? My stats are only saving when I use a Mosin Nagant (and yes I play on ranked servers only). My favorite gun is the Mauser 98 and I want Bayonet for it so badly but my stats won't save for it .

That's your home IP lad, the one you use to access your own computer.

Try again. :[

Does the bayonet have more range than the rifle butt? Unless I've completely snuck up on them I usually find myself being just a few feet too short before they manage to shoot me.

Im just in love with my bayonet charging it into my clanmates erlier hering them swear about it its so much fun to kill someone with.
Also its pretty scary having on running up with a charged bayonet

It gives bolters an chance in close range situations so far melee is nailed its awesome


And I think if you hold the melee button down it will do more damage than just tabbing it as for now its been a one shot kill on any encounter for me (if I didnt just hit the arm)

Yes it has superior range...and dont charge in a direct line try it more sideways most people cant hit you that way

 

[Disarray]

Is the bayonet tied to the weapon level or the class level? And what level do you get a shiney bayonet with which to stab people?

Once your WEAPON reaches level 25 or get bayonet, for now it is always attached :]

Aren't the TWB servers stat tracking? I can hardly access my stats (buggy menus) and I don't think I'm leveling up as I should be (on weapons).

Other than that, totally agree! I was an allies sniper on barracks, hiding in a dark corner when I casually turned around and saw a german sniper sitting right frickin' next to me. I instinctively melee'd him in the head Melee works so much better now than in RO1.

 

[Baine]

Need video of bayonet action!!!

 

[Ritsuno]

I make a video when I get off work today .... That is if I still have it.
It said my weapon was level 32 in a server but I didn't have it. ; ;

 

[gilly83]

i love sneaking up on ppl and melee'ing them, its so much fun

Can't wait to unlock my bayonet as well

 

[Ritsuno]

Lol,ya I love to invade the Apartments after the Russians press forward and take it. Its always good for a few melee kills.
I wish some servers added it to rotation, I kinda miss the first two maps now... :/
