Call of Duty: Black Ops II
Multiplayer
The Combat Knife is a brand new knife in Black Ops II, it becomes available when the player removes a primary or secondary weapon, which is then replaced in-game by the Combat Knife. Additionally, you can use the Combat Knife and the Mission Shield, which even lets you keep your other weapon (if you had one). This means the combat knife does not take any of the 10 distribution points in the class editor.
Compared to the normal knife, the combat knife allows you to stab faster and the blade is wavy. It is held in the right hand, not like the standard knife, which is unwrapped with the left. The player also doesn’t make a sound when they stab. Last but not least, you get a 50% bonus on your sprint speed. A unique feature is using the “shoot” button to knife. To destroy ground-heavy launches like the guard or the gun, you can’t use the combat knife.
Survival combat
The combat knife also appears in the survival battle. The stats are similar to its multiplayer counterpart, but it is much harder to get. Every player always has the Combat Knife with them, but you can only use it if you have no other weapon. You can’t get it on a map without the Pack-a-Punch machine anyway. You are only allowed to own the M1911 and then put it in the machine for punching. After that, you just turn around and walk away so that the machine sucks the gun in. You now have no weapons and the character pulls out the combat knife. However, keeping it isn’t particularly recommended because it only does a bit more damage than the normal knife, the biggest advantages are the quick stabs the player can do with it.
Info
- Although you manage to get the diamond camouflage by unlocking all camouflages of a certain weapon class, the combat knife says that you have to unlock all camouflages for all primary and secondary weapons in order to do so.
- You can see the Black Ops II logo on the weapon.
- The combat knife is much easier to get on TranZit. First, you can share points, which allows you to go punting earlier, second, you can store your weapons in a fridge, so they are not completely lost and if you need help, you just have to return.
- It is the first melee weapon that occupies a weapon slot.
Call of Duty
The Call of Duty series has existed since 2003 and in addition to various spin-offs, including for the handheld systems Nintendo DS and Sony PSP, 14 major titles of the series have now been released. Ever since the first part of the series, great emphasis has been placed on the online multiplayer mode in addition to the single-player campaign, which is also reflected in the development of the shooter series. Since the first Call of Duty, World at War, which was developed exclusively by Treyarch, each part also included cooperative challenges that you could play together with friends. The latest installment, Call of Duty: World War II, also features an extended multiplayer mode that puts you and your friends in the combat zones and famous battles of World War II. Using the divisions, you’ll be able to choose between the deadly sniper and the brute armored division and support your comrades in battle. In addition, World War II also has a zombie mode “Nazi Zombies”, as in its predecessor Call of Duty: Black Ops. Face the monsters of the Third Reich and win glory and honor.
