If you like to play the game Point Black, then you already know a little about such weapons as a ballistic knife. In general, most players do not like him. But in vain. After all, its characteristics are at a fairly high level, and it can be used in almost any situation. So notoriety accompanies this instrument undeservedly. I even guess for what reason. First of all, because a ballistic knife will not be cheap to buy.
But let's take a break from the game and talk about using this weapon in real life. There is such a misconception that this knife was made in the Soviet Union only for soldiers of special units. This is absolutely untrue, since this country did not produce this type of weapon , and the special services never had them in service. This is due to the fact that they have low reliability, a small distance of effective shooting, as well as insufficient safety in handling. And the United States produced these knives.
In reality, the GRU's special forces were not armed with a ballistic knife, but with a bayonet-knife for a Kalashnikov assault rifle, as well as a reconnaissance knife that fires LDC 2. But the special units of the internal troops were generally limited to bayonet-knives. The KGB special forces of the country of the Soviets were provided with devices for silent shooting, which worked together with machine guns and pistols. They went in addition to the LDC-2. As you can see, these facts completely refute the version about the arming of such ineffective weapons as a ballistic knife.
All of the above is completely contrary to what is written in the game. Since the version with the special forces of the USSR went, most likely, from it, this indicates the ignorance of the developers and the distortion of historical facts. But of course, everyone turns a blind eye to this. Well, okay, we turn to the indicators of this type of weapon in the game itself. This knife causes damage equal to 60. The accuracy value is 100. It is slightly inferior to the standard speed value when running with weapons for close combat. It equals 97.
Now I will say that the above indicators do not play a special role. But before that, a little about the cost. In order to get a ballistic knife for one day, you have to give 10 rubles. A week will cost 60, and a month 150. No matter how you twist it is a lot. Now about the tactics of the game with this weapon. No special skills are required for him. It makes it possible to use 2 modes. The left button of the manipulator is a blow, somewhat reminiscent of a similar action with a bayonet-knife with a turn of the handle. If you press the right button of the manipulator - throw the knife. The advantage of the last action is that it can be performed four times. Because of this, the opponent who will run at you is simply doomed.
For this reason, he is also not loved. If players choose this weapon, they are in most cases removed from the room. Although if you are a beginner, then do not pay attention to bad advice. If you want - play, it is your right. That's actually all I wanted to tell you. The choice is yours.
