Unarmed/blade safety kills

Postby Savage117 » Mon Oct 11, 2010 9:05 pm

I’m aware I may be posting a question that has been asked but I'm new and didn't want to necropost.

My question is, is there a way to safety kill someone quietly, like tapping them on the shoulder and saying "your dead" or something like that without having to fire your weapon or having the person you "kill" yelling hit? Therefore giving you the option of silently killing more people in the area without their comrades knowing?

Although I haven’t attended a game yet I personally would rather someone yell "Safety Kill" or tap me on the shoulder than shoot me point blank at 350 - 400 fps or shove a fake blade into my side. If someone were to cause me any pain that close up, my first reaction is to hit first and ask questions later, and I'm sure there are bigger and stronger people that will have the same reaction, and I don't want to be near them when it happens.

That is all,

Yes, knife kills are just fine. In fact it's exactly what you said - walk up, tap them and say "you're dead" or "safety kill". Odds are they'll accept it just because you scared the shit out of them.

Usually if you walk up to a group of them from behind you can start tapping them on the shoulder with your knife. They really can't complain because most of the time they can't see me until it's too late, or they are too busy to realize that I'm wearing a different camo pattern.

during games i usually carry a foam sword with me...it is an object of great fear!! honestly, a safety kill is something to be proud of, if you can sneak up on someone that close without them hearing you...BRAVO!
AEACUS, i have yet to be knife killed by you...until then your ninja skills are in question!

Im gald to hear its more fun than dangerous, from some other posts I thought some players might go a little "post traumatic stress disorder" on me if I scared them a bit too much, but it sounds like that is rare, which is good, I realy dislike getting punched in the face or butt stocked.

And I like being sneaky. :badgrin:

if someone manages get close enough to touch me and say "safety kill" without me knowing, that's good enough for me, and i would take the death. if someone tries to go all rambo and literally shank me with a rubber knife im probably going to respond by doing something like knocking them over and stepping on their neck. you don't need to pantomime stabbing someone to get the point across.

Also, usually at games safety kills will be explained. If they aren't, just ask the game director.

What I like to do is wear camo that is just enough like my team to pass but just enough like your teamro confuse you, then I walk all calm intonyour group and when younask if I'm on your team I act like I didn't hear you.. Then I knife stab and safety kill like 20 people and laugh my a$$ off cuz I'm so tactical.

AP wrote:RUBBER KNIFE KILLS
Players are allowed to "tap out" other players with rubber or plastic knives made for safe Airsoft use. Touch your opponent with your rubber knife and simply tell them that they're dead. Contact should be no more than a tap; there's absolutely no slashing, throwing, hitting or martial arts physical contact allowed. Contact must be made with a rubber or plastic replica of a knife, sticks and other objects do not work. DO NOT tap another player in the head, neck, face or groin. Players eliminated by this method should try and acknowledge their hit/death silently.

ssSSHH Mitch youre giving away my secrets! In all seriousness though I think there was one time that I called over someone from the over team at Infidel Bash because we were on an alliance. After he gave me some cover fire I got the call that the alliance had ended, soooo I killed him before he got the same message! :D Were you referring to the one where I was a double agent, that was all Craig and man did it get crazy at times. I think towards the end it was just KOS for me. I came home with a ton of whelps lol

I guess Cold Steel Knives just add a little more immersion to the whole safety kill thing. Swords are something different and while fun, if done wrong just look mouth breatherish.

SOMEONE PLEASE DRESS LIKE STORM SHADOW!!!!

Kiss and hugs!

Although anyone who was at the Coffee Angels dusk game before the big op cant tell you what happened. :p

GO NINJA GO NINJA GO! :D
