I've been playing a bit of Nuketown Zombies recently. In that, one of my priorities is to get the Galvaknuckles as soon as possible (I buy a wall gun like the AK-74u in the process, as I can't get that many points with just a pistol).
While using the Galvaknuckles, I found them to miss now and again and be a little bit clunky. I thought this was due to the general knife mechanics, which in my opinion function a lot worse than in BO1.
However, one time I decided to pick up a Bowie Knife along the way. I found when using it that it felt overall easier to use. One thing that I had the impression of was that the recovery time between melees was a bit shorter than with the Galvaknuckles.
So is it just my mind fooling me, or is there an actual difference in the way these two melee weapons operate, besides damage?
Also, am I right to skip the Bowie and go straight for the 'Knuckles, or do you guys recommend getting the Bowie first for that earlier one-hit-kill in the BO2 maps?
