Until he mentioned it I never thought about the reason for the speed change when you take the knife out was because of a weight change I always just figured that it would be more so along the lines of it being more clunky while holding a rifle/LMG/SMG due to it restricting your arm movement which would reduce your ability to run normally because as much as we don't really think about it how you move your arms does greatly affect your speed while running. Try running with your arms crossed and just see how much more awkward it feels. That being said I do think that it is really all just in the name of game mechanics because realistically there is no way you run the same speed with a AUG as a MP7 IRL.

i have Minh's TM MP5 airsoft gun from back in the day like 20 years ago when we played airsoft in the same club. My friend Dirk bought it from him, then I bought it off Dirk because it's a piece of history as far as im concerned. I dont even play airsoft any more. Last I heard Minh works in Seattle for Valve and still has family in Vancouver and I still have him on Facebook so I should really get the Mp5 signed at some point lol. I was 16 when I met him when he was 25 or so, playing at Panther paintball in the airsoft club called OpFor and BCAC. Hope he's doing well, he's a good guy. Minh did all the coding, it was his baby that he worked on while going to college at SFU. His game. Cliffe is the guy who made the sprites and animations, and many of the maps. I beta tested Minh's second game, Tactical Intervention but on the original HL engine, then when the game released it was released on Source. It's not a very good game, but I think you can still get it on Steam. Dang, I dont see it. Oh well, youre not missing much.

The newer Wolfenstein games have mostly fictional weapon designs based on some WW2-era firearms such as the Stg-44, P-08 and the Thompson SMG.

[@paullittle835]

@@jharju2352 true, but the way (some of them) are designed using those real world guns as a basis is a very interesting bit of retrofuturism. The Allied assault rifle in Wolfenstein is shockingly bad, tho, thank goodness its barely in the game!

[@MrGrimsmith]

Killing Floor and Koilling Floor 2 get my vote, for sure. Some real world firearms, some modifications to existing and some "Well, that was unexpected!" options. I'd add another suggestion to your list though - go old school. Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.

While the weight of the gun stays when the player switches to knife, the centre of gravity is more stable(lower and closer to the medial axis) when the gun is strapped closer to the body, making running easier.

9:00 i always assumed the increased movement speed wasn’t due to weight loss, but was more ease of use. It’s easier to run with something heavy strapped to your back than it is in your arms, so lighter/smaller guns let you run better.

[@Jed02000]

Absolutely correct, i described it in my comment: we physically can't run at maximum speed with occupied hands.

Straps aren't for carrying guns on your back. You would run way slower if you had a heavy lmg swinging around behind you or in front of you. Better to hold it and keep it steady than have it unbalance you
