Can't stab when knife preselected


(Ashog) #1

If a knife is selected (ready for slashing), the stab with quickbutton doesn’t work.

There have been several similar bug threads about knife behavior from Mustang and co., but imho not exactly that thingy.

It’s actually a pretty nasty bug, I always feel like this when it happens:

Could some1 else confirm it? I have just checked again, tried rebinding to other buttons, tried different classes to no avail - still doesn’t work.

I can confirm.

To reproduce:

  1. Select knife (press 3)
  2. Perform a quickknife (press middle mouse button)

Expected behaviour:

  • Quick knife heavy stab action is performed

Actual behaviour:

  • No action is performed

This is an old bug that disappeared for a while but came back 2 patches ago. It’s pretty annoying because most of the time when you experience this you end up dying as a result.

I’ll second that. Quick knife works fine with anything else but knife out. With knife already selected quick knife does nothing.
