Chainsaw should be able to damage while flying through the air.

[Shady]

Bring back some of the fun in this game.

I mean come on, you already took alot of the fun out of using knife with the charge up.

And giving autos selfbink.

And barret/law delay.

NERF PALOOZA FOR ALL. Instead of adding to the game physically, you take away what we have all grown to love.

Imagine how fun it would be for people to throw a friggen chainsaw, have it spin in air, and kill. Imagine how fun it would be to get a double kill with it.

It would raise the effectiveness of it and people would ACTUALLY use it competitively.

Ofcourse it wouldn't be the same as knife:

Chainsaw's range is shorter thrown but deadlier in terms of collision area.
Same charge up time.

Consider the chainsaw the short range version of a knife.

PLEASE CONSIDER.

And don't give me anything about it being unrealistic, im sure infinite rounds of ammo, jet shoes, no soldat fatique, and minigun weight being as light as a muffin aren't the only unrealistic aspects of this game.

Wrong place to put this, mate.
Try putting it in game suggestions.

I support this idea that when you "fire" it and you die, it should keep running.

[5th_account]

Aye I've gotten a hard time for suggesting selfbink removal in the exp. balance. Most of them don't want change.

Anyhoo, I'm affraid it's too late to throw anything new into the version since the release is so close.

[popsofctown]

i think anyone talking at this point knows they are talking about.. 1.3.3 version, not 1.3.2.  Anyway, fun with the saw is good, and i think this would be ok as long as the throw is very, very slow. it's main use would be attack from above.  dash attacks and the like r better improvements than this, i think.  Your title misled me, please retitle this "Throwing the Saw" or something like that.

[papercut]

I support this idea that when you "fire" it and you die, it should keep running.

Better suggestion, as throwing the chainsaw would give no benefit to the knife. It would be like adding a second minigun thats the same in every way except there's no delay before fire.

No, not if you make the saw throw speed very, very, very, slow.  i. e., you "drop it at people", to kill them.  knife would keep its domain in that it wouldn't require being exactly above someone to kill them.

Could have sworn I heard a long time ago that chainsaws would be "Throwable" in the next version...

Love this idea, but if you ask me, it'd cause too much problems. Mainly whiners. "OMG u nub u left ur saw tere to kill me". Plus, would the chainsaw run till it's out of ammo?  Or just run for a second or two?

EDIT: Chainsaws good enough if you know how to use it right. Just ask most of U13 'bout me.

This is true. Many a time I've been humiliated by you in the U13 INF server. ;_;

I think it should be included, seeing as the Chainsaw requires the most skill to use effectively. (Well, Deagles and Knife require great skill, too.)

No. Don't change my beautiful saw. Just make it work again, that's all it needs. You make it throwable and it's just a crappier knife.. you say it'll be stronger, but you can already get a 1-hit kill with a knife, so how would you make it any better? Personally I think the fun of the chainsaw is being able to get a melee kill.. so yeah. Just fix the reg issues with it and it's fine the way it is :p

Indeed, I once upon a time used the knife before the delay was added, then I couldn't simply be arsed to charge up the throw.

Imagine how fun it would be for people to throw a friggen chainsaw, have it spin in air, and kill. Imagine how fun it would be to get a double kill with it.

Consider the chainsaw the short range version of a knife.

I already like the chainsaw the way it is... what's with the attempts to turn it into a light version of the knife lately? It is damn well usable already!

Chainsaw's range is shorter thrown but deadlier in terms of collision area.
Same charge up time.

That I might just as well agree with. That, or an increase in ammo or an increase in fireinterval and increase in damage. Or something else that made it just that extra tadbit more useful.

NERF PALOOZA FOR ALL.

Actually I think selfbink was great for balancing, and silenced the crys of "noob cannon" when the 1.2.1 Minimi was used. It made autos more respectful instead of just point and hold-click. Same for the Barrett too. Altough I fear that people want the autos to have even more bink, which I do not support.

Aye I've gotten a hard time for suggesting selfbink removal in the exp. balance. Most of them don't want change.

You want it removed? I thought you were Mr.Lets-all-nerf-autos!-Ruger-is-gods-weapon, or am I thinking of Demonic..

[Horve]

I suggested this on the old soldat forums. It was denied. I approved but now I dont since its not worth the coding anyway.

1000.9% support! from me

I think that the chainsaw is too under-powered because it requires you to be in close range. And there is the fact that you can't get a higher speed that your opponent (if your opponent knows how to avoid saws). So the only way to kill people with it is to take them from behind. And that's impossible because of the noise it makes. I support this 50% because it isn't realistic as you notice if you have used a saw (they are pretty heavy, the only way to kill people is by sawing or squash them with it).. Might be fun because it doesn't stop after 1 kill like the knife. Just think of it as having a chainsaw covering your fall during a high to low rush. And why don't you just let it run chainsawing on the ground (are he mad?!) with a limit of the ammo of course.

Gives great opportunities for new game modes. Unofficial of course.

"Happy now?"

i think that chain saw is to under-powered because it takes that u are in such close range. And there is the fact that u cant get a higher speed that ur opponent

It would be good if you can move faster when using the saw, but that could get easily abused by people using it to escape with the flag faster.

No, I think several weapons should give you different slowdowns - Could be an entry in the weapons.ini

Its really hard to chainsaw someone who have knowledge of your intentions. And you know that..

I was quoting the part where you were talking about speed. Although I should have really stopped the quote at the send if the sentence, it did not really matter for what I was talking about. I'm sorry if it looked like I was twisting your point.

BTW...

i- (needs capital letter) think that the chainsaw is too under-powered because it requires you to be in close range. And there is the fact that you can't (apostrophe added to "cant") get a higher speed that your opponent (if your opponent knows how to avoid saws). So the only way to kill people with it is to take them from behind. and (needs capital letter) that's impossible because of the noise it makes.

As you are so concerned with my quoting of your posts, I have helpfully given you a lesson in the English language.
