Is something that none of the MW games have ever addressed beyond DFAs and ramming. I'm curious as to whether or not there are any plans on implementing punches and/or kicks.
I've been wondering if it were possible to have some kind of context sensitive melee button. Like, if i aim my crosshairs at a low to the ground target (mech legs, fallen over mechs, tanks, and infantry), and press melee, my mech will stop and deliver a kick. If i aim above that at another mech's torso, or REALLY low flying vtol, my mech will punch (provided its got working arms)
i always find it silly when you've got mechs slamming into each other out of desperation or ineptitude but are unable to do anything other than unload weapons point blank, it'be much cooler of melee combat was traded instead, with the advantage of being much more likely to knock an opponent over. To be fair though, tanks should be more suited to 'shinning" a mech to knock it over with a sucessful full speed ram to counter the fact that they'd be so very kickable.
thoughts?
