Not a big fan of being “panic knifed” in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3? Get used to it. Creative Strategist, Robert Bowling, responds to fans’ dislike of the current knifing system and the state of the Extreme Conditioning perk.If you’re using the standard button layout for Modern Warfare 3, then you know the swing of your blade is only a tiny right thumb click away (on consoles) from downing your enemy in one foul swoop. This reflex tends to be the first reaction of one who finds themselves in a tricky situation all of a sudden. Hence the term, “panic knifing”. This has been a part of the Call of Duty franchise for ages now. But more and more, it seems to be receiving a lot of “hate” from the Call of Duty community. Many see it as a “cheap” and “easy” way to get kills. To add insult to injury, it definitely isn’t fun being knifed after having shot your enemy a couple of times first. In a virtual argument with fans on Twitter, Robert Bowling shares his view on the infamous “panic knife”.

Panic knifing is funny when you do it, but annoying if it happens to you!

No the newsbot is reporting the response of Robert Bowling's reply to the fans dislike of the system. Not the newsbot just posting this after having it in the attic somewhere.



Panic Knifing is used because its the quickest and most effective way to kill an enemy within melee distance without wasting 1983840 bullets trying to randomly spray and pray. The system has, at the end of the day been in most CoD's so everyone has an opinion on it, but yet you can say the same about the graphics engine.

Why don't they just, you know, delay it a bit? Are they that lazy?

Solution, don't get close enough for them to knife you. Seriously I haven't got panic knifed once in this game. Use to in cod4 and mw2
