Right, grenades sitting by your left hand still appealing to you? Why not make them dual weildable and get it over with. You can run around with your Assault Pistol, drop a grenade, flash 'em and then watch them blow up and clear up the stragglers with a headshot. While we're at it, why not the Combat Knife as well? It's already underpowered IMO, with the Blades and Katana having a blocking move and either a rapid spaz attack or a highly damaging attack that works well from the air. All the knives have are the ability to be thrown, and while that may sound good, good luck in hitting your target, as they will bounce around shooting you or moving in closer to slash you with a larger melee weapon. Now, as grenades fire totally differently to guns, perhaps we can either make a third trigger, or disable alt fire of the gun and it becomes the grenade throw or knife slash. Also, another idea for the Combat Knife, pressing Change Fire Rate will make the knife flip over so when gripped the blade will point down, making for different melee attacks that are stronger and much slower (and by ratio less effective over time), a much stronger charged attack and for knife throws that knife is spun upwards into the normal position and then thrown, though the next one drawn will be upside down. |

Hmm, I'm liking it. Good think Raptor. |

the only disadvantage of dual wielding a grenades is you won't be able to roll it, or for a knife you can't use it's big slash. There are two reasons. 1) We'd need a forth trigger, and most mouses only have 3 buttons, so that goes out the window. 2) You wouldn't have the manoeuvrability to do a big hit with the knife while holding a gun, or properly roll a grenade, so this can be an excuse why there's no forth trigger (though as you may have noticed the Revolver in the-off hand can't use it's double shot if paired with something else, so it'd balance out) |

Hmm...? A knife and pistol wielded at the same time...? CQC... Big Boss comes to mind somehow... |

Well even if this system is a bit dodgy, how about the other note on the Knife, flipping it upside down when you press Fire Rate? |

You mean, like, THIS!? It's not very clear, but if you look closely, he's got a knife on one hand and a gun on the other. |

Yeah in a way I suppose, and that's actually a good demonstration of both of my ideas. |

It's called CQC (short for Close Quarters Combat)... |
