Without turning enlisted into a complex melee simulator I’d like to suggest giving all swords of every nation a ability to automatically block all melee attacks from certain angles.
For example:
Some limits to this would be:
•you can only block a attack every 3 seconds
•any attack that doesn’t fall between the red lines will deal the normal amount of damage
Good. + 1
a automatic melee strike block could work quite fine.
question is, can event hammer get a charge atack? also build slighty faster?
i would also make japanese no event sword block in 5 seconds.
okay but how often do people get into melee on melee fights?
Your right, therefore it won’t negatively effect anyone and will help players who enjoy melee fighting and don’t like being stabbed by a bot at lightspeed.
I just think its wasted effort on the developer’s side to program a new feature that only 0.001% of people would appreciate
It would be cool to do it like in Half Sword. If you think about it, this is the perfect melee combat for a shooter. It is controlled LITERALLY by one button, but allows you to do blocks, parries, dodges and brutal finishers.
I was thinking the same lately, but didn’t knew how to word it properly. Mainly because I’ve been having fun with the swords and giving my troops the speed perk and having a blast. I suggest that it shouldn’t be reserved just for katanas/swords, I want to add to your suggestion that all melee weapons should block or at least have a chance of survival and fighting back. Specially when it’s a face to face melee attack. Currently it looks very cartoony when both soldiers die if they slash at the same time lol. Also this could open a new door for prewar era event scenarios, or custom mods. I’d rather see Enlisted exploring combined arms combat from prewar or WWI era, instead of going Cold War all of sudden. At least I’m sure modders would have a field day with an improved melee system for Enlisted.
I just want to hear a metallic clanking sound when slashing swords and axes, you know.
Can it block bullets too 
?
Unfortunately Enlisted players aren’t quite on the level of Deadpool yet 
Rather than blocking, I want the attack to be changed to a wide-area attack.
It’s so weird to kill only one person when swing it
this is a really good suggestion in my opinion, it gives a little bit of realism, and a better combat style instead of just being stabbed or running away!
and if its like you got to press a button to block it, it will be more immersive to the player, or Maybe there will be a setting which where you can choose if you want it to be automatic or manual.
actually in the matches i play, a lot of people use melee when they are very close to an enemy, and having a chance to block it is very helpful to me and other players experiencing it.
did you make that a suggestion, cuz if not do it cuz thats a really good idea
