10 Video Game Weapons You're A Dick For Using
3. Ballistic Knife - Call Of Duty: Black Ops
It's always a questionable decision to include multiple weapons from the same franchise, but there's no way the Ballistic Knife from 2010's Call of Duty: Black Ops doesn't make this list.
There is nothing worse than being engaged in a thrilling team deathmatch on Nuketown, bobbing into every room of each house in search of enemies to slaughter before falling to an opponent using the Ballistic Knife.
The weapon is a ranged attack that fires a single knife at an opponent. Each shot must be reloaded, so its fire rate is weak, but being struck by just one in a multiplayer match means death. The skill needed to master the Ballistic Knife requires hours of practice, so when you are slain by the weapon you are fully aware of the opponents competence, which only adds to your dislike of the player.
Unlike the Tomahawk, it takes up the secondary weapon slot, meaning those who select the Knife are theoretically down on firepower.
This matters little, as only the most seasoned of players use the Ballistic Knife, and more often than not it's to flex how good they are at the game. To everyone else, they just look like a prat.
