Why don't we have buttstroke?

(Tanker_Ray) #1

Yeah bashing groggy enemies with cricket bat is awesome, but sometimes I feel like ‘‘Why can’t we just hit’em with my gunstock, rather than press 3 and finish off?’’

I think this type of melee attack might also help you with urgent situations, when you meet enemies in close quarter.

Please let me smack this cunning female characters with my fabulous butt plate.

I’d like to butt stroke Fletcher.

That sounds… awkward…

like… I buttstroked him in the face

This kinda reminds of the troll post where someone in very bad english requests “fisting”, you know fist fights…

@ThunderPro That picture shows a stockstrike, not to be confused with a buttstroke.

Phantom seems like he would like to be butt stroked.

Ya know, because his mask and armor would block it and then it’s slashy, slashy time.

I’d say yes if it weren’t for the fact that my mates would laugh every time I buttstroked a Proxy to death.

I dunno, he’s got way more cushion for the pushin’… of your stock. Would be a lot harder to kill like that, probably wouldn’t try it.

Because hitting them with your weapon’s stock ain’t as satisfying as shoving a cricket bat far in the rectum~

I fixed it.

Because I wouldn’t think bashing someone with a plastic or polymer stock would be a good idea.

Wood is harder to break, but still

Plus, your knife will always deal more damage.

So that’s why some people are waiting for “Stroker” ?

(Sinee) #13

Would be kinda fun if it was like in GTA V where if another player gets too close to you as you’re holding your gun, you bitchslap the fuck out of them with it and kill them. :stuck_out_tongue:

I like big butts and I can not lie.

Support!

Right now I’d say it’s just more effort on animation and things like that, for a function that isn’t essential. It would perhaps be nice to see in the distant future once all the main content is in the game, but I’d rather see animators work on cleaning up some of the already existing animations in the game.

Just my 2-cents ^.^ But don’t get me wrong, it’s not a bad idea (I have to admit, after playing BLR for several years, it was weird having “stab” on my “quick melee” button as opposed to a buttstroke. But hey, I got used to it!) x3
