Re: Counter Knife on PC has stopped working properly since March 6th client patch

Yes, I too have the same problem. I watched some video's on counterknifing, some say you should press the button only when the message appears or the counterknife will fail if you do it before that message. Thing is, when the message appears when I haven't touched any button yet, I'm already dead. This mechanic is so awesome, especially considering the fact they claim netcode is fixed now and everything, but one shots and other premium bullet lag still happens.

That is true. If you try to counterknife before the message appears or should have appeared it doesn't work. It's a timing issue inside a buggy system which makes it hard.
