Backstabbing.

[Vulpes]

So my dear Pixel Gun friends. I came here with an interessting suggestion: what if BACKSTABBING was implemented in the game?
Such as an example... If you have any type of melee weapon, ANY you could try to backstab an R.A.P and one hit kill them with the backstab.
Would it be an interessting feature or would be too OP?

Buy the way, increase the Guerrila Rifle UP2's damage. Please?

 

[[R.A.Z.E]Ryven]

BackStab should be implemented for the Combat Knife.
in fact, shouldn't all melee have some sort of special effect?
like the Pickaxe could armor break and the Fire Demon could set people on fire, slowly dmg the player lit on fire, but increases their mobility.

OP unless it cuts down armor alot instead if instant.

OP unless it cuts down armor alot instead if instant.

It would be perfect if it worked like this:
Wooden/gold - 1 hit backstab
Crystal/Ruby - 2 hits to kill on a backstab.

That unless they plan or adding more armor, which in case it would possibly cause a great armor break if you backstabbed a full crystal/Ruby player leading up to 1 hit backstabbing them.

Battlefield reference?

 

[Tex]

Call of duty ghost stabbing is what I would like to see in pixel gun.

Maybe it should work to cut destroy armor, if its wooden 1 hit kill on back, and it will make @RiliSoft to make new hit boxes for back hit scan with melee which could produce some power drain.

 

[Vulpes]

I was kinda making reference to TF2's Spy class... But it kinda goes the same doesn't it?

 

[Zaliox]

I think this idea was suggested before. Nevertheless, it possibly could be implemented in the game.

Well, the head and body hit boxes are separate, right? I don't really see a reason for RiliSoft to add another hit box on the back, because obviously you won't be able to "backstab" in the front

Or better, they could add a type of butterfly knife to the game, that wouldn't cost too much coins and it would do very low damage if stabbed in the front, but an instand kill if BACKSTABBED. It sure is a interessting idea. Isn't it?

Well there also is no collisions which can produce a face stab if you go into the player and hit the back hit box.

 

[Feesh]

Sounds cool, but what's the point if you're already using your guns most of the time?

 

[Inferno the Assassin]

Backstab...Hmm. Sounds like a game I play called Farcry except it is called takedowns. Sounds op. So no

Have you bothered reading what everyone else said?

 

[Inferno the Assassin]

Have you bothered reading what everyone else said?

Yes I did. Someone could make a glitch so you could do back stabs ALL the time.

Heres a thing Rilisoft can do with the melee weapons.
change the aiming. instead of making the melee a pin-point weapon like guns. why not swipe instead. I mean whenever you attack, the attack goes in an arc rather than what ever you're pointing at cuz melee is just.... I'll just say a bit broken.

 

[--Mr.Zero--]

I backstabber people in call of duty...

 

[Ruby Rose]

Backstabbing sounds like a neat idea. It would be great on Knife Party servers.

I agree, provided that there are no serious bug related issues from this, i think that this would help to promote the stealth aspect of the game more. Speaking of stealth, what about a game mode where one team has to avoid or escape from a map without the other team killing them first? The escape team would only have a backstab weapon, whereas the other team are allowed primaries, backups and melee weapons. What do you think?

Sounds like fun :3
