Surprised anyone hasn't brought up MKTs using grab/power in interlock to outdo MAs.

Oh right, I am also kinda tired of punts from my side. It should be either behind me in a cone 90 degrees or just allow them to use all those abs from where ever they want.

Easy mode makes me beef and takes away my burgers.

That is basically my whole point, there is practically no combat situation that you can place an MKT in in which they are truly at a disadvantage.

In IL? Spam a bunch of high acc, high damage, low IS knives
OoIL? Spam a bunch of high acc, high damage, low IS knives with stacking timers and easy to achieve permaroots.

And, for the love of god, make it so you actually have to be BEHIND people to use sneak attacks. In my experience there is roughly a 70 degree cone in front of a player where you can't sneak attack from, leaving 290 degrees that is free sailing for any MKT.

Ya'll do know that Zudrag probably only started this thread for teh lulz, right?

On topic though, MKT is fine. I love them. Especially when they can two-hit me even with my Hyper running and Thrown resistance clothing on. Seriously, if I get killed by an MKT, I know I am doing something right.

Goodness yes, the cone is waaaaaaaaay to small, it makes NO sense for me to backup against the wall or continually turn on the spot and they still manage to suplex or stagger throw you.  

MKT having absaloutely no place in the Matrix Universe is one thing, it being able to cut and slice the way it does right now is another!  MxO Population: MKT (For Syntax anyway)

I saw a knife being thrown what? Once or twice in the whole trilogy and again not as main offensive use, the Twins' razor blades were used as melee weaponry. It always surprises me how despite being the least used method of combat it is the one most used in the game. Mind you, you don't see any (that I can think of) offensive hacking in the movies either. I'd have to agree with Rarebit once again when he said if he had it his way MxO would have been MA and Guns with some command line hacking (and I presume the odd knife throw skill thrown in).

I agree, recently it has looked like MKT Online...
