You seriously think it would take much effort to incapacitate someone using a weapon as melee??? When was the last time you were punched in the face or head let alone hit with several kilos of wood and/or metal?
We're not talking about how effective these weapons are against eachother, merely that in a combat situation you aren't going to abandon your weapon for another in a melee situation. Soldiers are trained to keep there weapons to hand, lest you get caught out and killed all because you didn't.
We seem to be straying around the same points...
Yes, the entrenching tool would be an effective way at attacking melee, so would a knife. BUT and this has been said several times by several people (including devs in the past) you aren't going to get out 6 inches of trench knife, to combat someone with what is practically a metre long spear or a club made of 4kg of machine pressed steel in their hands.
If you've had your weapon shot out of your hands use whatever the hell you like, but if you have your gun. You use your gun.
like you said i would use what ever i could get but as the game doesn
