Knifing continued...

I posted a thread recently, but I didn't realize there was a suggestions page just for the kind of thread I was posting. To see the original thread, go here: http://forum.z8games.com/showthread.php?p=2964029

My apologies for the repeat, but this needs to be seen. Basically I think that there should be a check-box for knife rounds that disables weapons other than the knife, sort of like the ones used in TD that disable flash/smoke grenades.

Now, what people said in response was usually an agreement, but issues brought up by people against the idea were these:
1 - I like knifing against people with zp. This way I get practice and feel more accomplished.
1 (my response) - Then you can easily join a round that allows zp melee weapons.
2 - Then zp weapons would become rare and people would stop paying for them.
2 (my response) - Not so. The amount of people who would rather use zp melee other than knife are the majority, not the minority. There would be several rounds with the box unchecked, allowing these weapons.
3 - Knife is the best melee
3 (my response) - IF you're skilled with it. But the most powerful melee weapon? No.
4 - People don't pay not to use their weapons.
4 - (my response) - Again, people would have access to rounds which do not disable zp melee weapons. It's an option.

Your thoughts, forum?

    I have to say i like where you coming from with this idea
  • Thanks. Hopefully if z8 sees that people are actually interested in this idea, then they will actually implement the check-box into the game. I feel this update would greatly improve the game.
  • This sounds like a great idea! z8 should consider this. It wouldn't even take long to implement such a small thing into the game =D

    A check-box? YES!
    +1
  • bumpin' for a good idea

    You should probably read the rules that Saidin just posted.... Dont bump!!

    Also I dont really understand why you made a thread here too? Well it should of been here in the first place but you get what I mean...

    As I said in the other thread I think weapon limitations if brought in shouldnt just be for melees but for all weapons across all modes. Also like I said in the other thread - a silenced only GM room would just be heavenly :rolleyes:
  • To be honest, I don't even care about this because I'm a ghost and not a knifer. But just because I saw people QQ'ing (you included) about ZP melee weapons, you receive a big and fat

    -1


    First of all, just because you noob can't or don't want to get yourself a different melee weapon doesn't means that I shall be restricted in what I use.

    Also, if it's like the grenades checkbox ... Then it's COMPLETELY stupid. Now because of that dumb checkbox with grenades I can't use tactical smoke grenades in regular rounds ('cus no one bothers to enable them ==)

    And last but not least, why don't you suggest a checkbox to enable M16 only while you're at it? HELL NO!

    So tense that you can't even think logically or something? The ability to have a knife only round is the same as having a sniper only round. Sniper only rounds disable other guns, but are other guns banned? Does it really limit your ability to USE your gun in any other round? NO. This option wouldn't be a "check to enable", it would be "check to disable". That being said, the majority of knife rounds would have zp weapons automatically enabled by default. THAT, and the majority of players use zp weapons. This being said, the option to make a room that only allows knives would NOT limit your ability to use your zp weapon. Think before you post, or log out.

    -Facepalm-

    In sniper only you can use several snipers, it's only normal that in melee you can use several melees. Nice try but your argument is invalid.

    Once again, just because you noob are too dumb or poor to get yourself a weapon better then the knife, doesn't means that every little piece of trash needs to be implemented in the game.

    If it's for QQ'ing about ZP weapons, feel free to RQ anytime mate.

    It's not really the same as sniper only rounds. In a sniper only round you can still use any sniper rifle you want. It doesn't restrict you to using only your m700. They HAVE Melee only rounds. If you you're analogy held any water you would already have what you want. A melee only option.

    What your asking for is something VERY different. An option to restrict a match to one specific weapon. Not the same...

    Work on your cognitive/reasoning skills please.

    Matter* and no it doesn't.
    I don't think its that big of a deal, for people who don't buy zp why not put in a function where only knives are allowed? It would be fun. ^^

    I don't get why would people play MELEE MODE,when they only have knife

    Because a knife is a MELEE weapon.

    Sorry after your last statement clearly you don't use common sense, and I don't like people I don't have common sense. It's like arguing with a rock.

    Why would people use knife in melee mode,just to QQ?
    Someone like you right?

    Look here, kid. I'm just trying to make a suggestion that a lot of other people clearly agree with. If you don't like it, you can simply play in a round where your zp weapons, which you apparently so desperately need, are enabled. If you have more to say, I really don't care. Get off the thread, stupid kid.
