    You saw the Warframe trailer on the steam store so you think that any badass with this kind of mask should have swords.
    I would prosecute you.
    Just cuz.

    Playing Borderlands a lot, eh?

    Pfff. A weapon with a plasma bayonet attached would be much better. The bayonet would be usable as a secondary mode like the UBGL.

    But then again infiltrators don't need to be more OP and annoying.

    And here I thought that VS were the weeaboos.....

    How about, when you swing it, it makes a bunch of explosions everywhere too.

    Everywhere.

    More like Night Elf Rogue.


    The reality is though it couldn't be any more powerful than the current knife balance-wise.

    They are going to open up a huge can of worms if they ever put the permanent stealth cloak in with PS2 low TTK.

    If they add this then I also want shurikens to throw in place of my pistol and the ability to climb walls. Also, I need to be able to super-jump and run super fast, because ninjas can do that. Actually, I changed my mind. I don't want shurikens. I want a sniper rifle that shoots shurikens instead of bullets.

    Also, add bullet time. Please make an ability where the entire server operates in slow-motion for the duration of the effect for my amusement as I slo-mo decapitate mans.

    in that vid someone posted about the ps4 player separation they talked about to implement new melee weapons.

    While the infiltrator class as a whole is annoying (SMG infiltrators can be hard to see when cloaked especially if you run in ultra) giving them SMGs was a step in a very good direction. Infiltrators shouldn't have meant snipers, which are 100% useless for the team and do nothing but stay somewhere in a hill camping enemies and doing nothing of worth except being flanked and killed in amusing ways like Beamers, being knifed, etc. The only way I can see a sniper helping their team is taking out engineers on AV turrets, and that's it.

    No. Go lick ninjas in your spare time not ours.
  16. theholeyone

    Mind blown :eek:

    So does that mean a knife is like a midget's sword?
  17. Torok


    Bullet time ok, but only for you, everyone moves at the same speed but you, wouldn't that be glorious?
    I can already foresee the epic humiliation knives recordings with Hans Zimmer playing in the background
  18. Spude


    nope.avi
  19. MrMurdok

    Not this again. Please stop.
