I know that it was just recently posted about wanting other melee weapons, but I would like to add on to it.
I would like to see melee weapons with different attributes and abilities. Just like we do the jump-knife, I think we should be able to do different things with different weapons. An example would be with a Katana, holding shift and attacking will do a flash-dash. Kind of like how many Steven Segal* movies where the camera flashes, and both people just stop, TENSION, and then the bad guy slides apart a minute later. Being longer then the knife, perhaps the katana can do less regular slash damage. I still think all melee should do 150 damage with the jump knife. A baseball bat, maybe can have a wider swing range, and different jump. HOME RUN ATTACK! It would be really cool if the baseball bat user would stand still as he swong, but make his enemy go flying. Maybe even stun some one.
I love how you can do the different jump attacks. I like the one where you use both hands to swing. I think using different animations, and different melee attacks would be really cool and fun. I also don't think it would be that much of a hassle to code and make. I am sure the developers can have fun making them, as the players will love using them.
Any way, in short it is just a simple idea that can open up a lot of new possiblities.
