Ah, the knife class. Tactical knife is crazy fun. It seems the knife is more of a slash than a stab (as in WaW), so there goes knifing into an enemy. Ooh! Killstreak reward (10 kills) drop a witch into the enemy spawn.

the real trick to this perk set is to get a care package marker and only hold it no use it, then you run like the fucking wind and knife everyone. you get a tactical nuke with only a knife and everyone hates you. its amazing.

Fucking kids and their perks. Back in my day of CS:S we didn't have perks to quiet our foot steps or run faster. We just had a knife and couple of flashbangs, and that thing didn't always kill first swing, mind you.

The real dick move is the recent discovery of the 'javelin trick' where if you run around with a javelin and get shot it immediately explodes. Like an instant martyrdom, but about 10x more powerful.

It doesn't work well on free-for-all, my preferred mode, I was basically gunned down by most people. Fun though.

It's fun but man do people get mad after a while. It's not as bad as when I had a thumper, an ACR with a grenade launcher, and scavenger pro though. I refilled my grenade launcher rounds at every dead body so I could just continuously noob tube everyone. Holy crap i got like, 8 messages threatening to disembowel me that one week alone. It was awesome.

It's a legit strat, and it's not easy to pull off. Not many people even bother to try it. Guess everyone's too busy being cliche.

After reading this I tried this very build ... on free-for-all ... and the map changed to rusted.

For those who don't know/if I spelt the map name wrong, it is a tiny little map with 6-8 people running around on it, you spawn and a second later you see at least one other person ... BTW I was going pretty well on that map, and I really like that build.

Marathon Pro and Lightweight Pro is a great combo, I like to use Akimbo Rangers with that too for some close-up loving!

Someone please remind me what Commando is, I've hardly used it...keep thinking no footstep sounds, but isn't that Ninja?

Commando is longer range on knife kills (Makes you do a lunge kinda like the sword in halo) and pro gives no falling damage. I generally don't ever use it on team games. As attacking more than one person is suicide, but a small map like scrapyard or rust- Its very effective, and fun. I'll probly try Akimbo 1870's but hav't unlocked them yet. Twin rangers are good though.

I have a class set up like this, it works even better on 3rd person. I've kinda stopped knifing people now though, if I'm running around and some guy comes out of nowhere I'll knife him, but a lot of the time I usually end up at the back of the opposing base, so I just place a TI and use a silenced Uzi. I could knife them, but I'm close enough to shoot so I don't see the point a lot of the time, and even if I am reaaaaalllyyy up in their grill, I have 2 shotguns so... :|

just like spawn camping, and camping in general, and using an animated spray that looks like a person so as to make people think there is an enemy over there, and rocket whoring, and hacking the game to give yourself all weapons.
Did you just liken camping to hacking? ;o

I was doing this in CoD4, had like a 20+ game winning streak with it in FFA. Ended only because I missed shooting people, not because I lost. Still, I killed faster with guns than with the knife, it's just fun to own them without using a gun. Used the juggernaut perk, silent run, and longer-sprint perks.

The main problem was people who don't see me, but are moving forward too fast for me to get in range so I'm forced to just follow them until they slow down. I ended up using stun grenades and smacking them with a direct hit. A direct grenade hit freezes their legs temporarily so I can charge forward and stab. The stun of the grenade doesn't really hamper knifing.

Basicly- Scince penny Arcade mentioned it- im seeing a whole lot of folks tryng this out (Marathon pro, Lightweight pro, Commando pro and Tac knife) And just wanted your thoughts on it- i find it works very well but leaves you a little vulnerable. But as far as being fun to play- its got to be the most fun weapon set ive used.
you know I haven't played COD MW 2 yet but I read the article on penny arcade and just invisioned entire servers clustered full of idiot kids using this on each other...

i wept a single tear...

no wait that was something else
regardless its a bad omen that this combo has already been figured out and broadcast to the masses for them to try, kind of makes me want to wait until everyone has forgotten about "the witch" then try the game
