almost release time: will you or won't you?

I haven't found it any help to try to stay behind MAXs at all. They just seem to start firing thru their backs at me anyway. Once in a while it seems to work, but only when there's very few other bodies in the area.

this is what i was referring to about the splash damage bug. there was a bug where if you stand close to someone there is an area where if they are firing their weapon it will hurt you even if the projectiles aren't hitting you. not sure how big the radius is or if it is specific to some weapons. most reports refer to MAXes. but if they still have not fixed this (though i think they must have by now since they posted saying they were working on it a long time ago) then in theory you might be able to knife someone while looking in exactly the opposite direction from them if your ass is touching them.
