i know this thread is old but, when i play sp ill have a run thru where all i use is the axe and by doing this i have found that if u go up to an ogre and push forward while axing, as he rases his chain saw uip to kill u he will enter a pain animation and move back, cutting his chain saw attack short and giving you little to no damage,...

A lot of the strategies (especially speedrunning strategies) in Qauke (and Quake 2) involve abuse of monster animation cycles. Most of them are about making a monster flinch to interupt an attack, but there are some others as well (the most famous of which being the shambler dance)...

Interjecting my 2 cents. But I would love to see a "halo-esque" melee style of attack, meaning:

A melee weapon that attack with a single press of a button, like the mighty foot

Melee can't be used while firing or another action

Different weapons allow you to use melee at different intervals; as in a shotgun will let you melee 1/4 a second after firing, and a rocket would allow you to melee 3/4 of a second after firing, not a HUGE difference, but can mean the difference between life and death

I love the idea that if you can lay a melee hit one after another they progressively get more powerful, although, the final hit of a 3-hit combo should push the enemy away from you and reset the damage back to default.
Cheers.

I found the the speed and air movement in Nexuiz permit for ample opportunities to use such a weapon. There has been quite a bit of buzz about wanting a knife game in Nexuiz. As a ninja, I think a knife would be a good addition. Something I liked about Halo was the assassination medal for sneaking up behind someone and using a melee attack to kill them. Dependant upon the victim's health, it'd be neat if this triggered an instant throat cut.
Otherwise, I'd imagine the behavior to be a weak but "chargable" stabbing action.
Also, Goldeneye, slappers only.

One thing I played that has to be the ultimate melee game is Action DooM 2: Urban Brawl . I was a stand alone Doom mod that emulated old beat 'em up like Streets of Rage and TMNT: arcade in a FPS. I think it was just brilliant. My ideal for a axe mod was to make it auto-attack when you got close like in Metal Slug. It's would work like Halo's melee but you don't have to add any buttons to the game, which i think is importent keepping Quake's gameplay simpel and fun.
BTW I like the ideal of charging the melee attack.

Maybe a lit cigarette that you can rub in their eyes. It would go well with brass knuckles and a leather jacket. _________________ F. A. Špork, an enlightened nobleman and a great patron of art, had a stately Baroque spa complex built on the banks of the River Labe.
